Maybe you're trying to force yourself to be horny? When I go on no-fap my libido gets very high but I climax quicker

@Artsu Hahaha I was writing a reply to another thread about synchronicity and I got a synchronicity while I was doing that. Universe is so funny. -
Not another one of these... I first saw blue and black and then it switched to white and gold like 10 seconds after

I believe Napoleon Hill used Infinite Intelligence to probe the ego in his book Outwitting The Devil, at the interview part. Apparently he had to let go of all his fear in order to achieve a conversation with "the devil". Leo also had a conversation with Infinite Intelligence which can be found on the blog. So perhaps it can be achieved through a state where you have no fear left, maybe through the use of psychedelics.

That's The Onion, it's satire. They're just poking fun at the fact that we act so different alone lol

Love guided meditations. Maybe i'm just bad at meditating but they get me really deep into the meditative state. I like the imagery here too. -
Most people don't know how to take care of their bodies and heart disease has been the number 1 cause of death in the USA for a while now. I don't see why coconut oil would be exempt from being seen as something that can cause high-cholesterol, it is high in fat after all. You just gotta consume this stuff in moderation and know what you're doing.

Hilarity is a reaction to the absurdity of life. Seeing something as absurd is akin to not taking it seriously. You won't find something hilarious if it is closely tied to your identity, because you wouldn't find your identity absurd or hilarious. But someone looking at it from a different perspective might. Example: You trip and fall and someone laughs at you. Not funny to you but funny to them. Or you could find it funny if you're able to look at it from a more detached and holistic perspective. This is what I came up with after thinking about it for a bit -

this happens to me when i stare at something for a long time -
@lmfao There was a story with the Buddha that I'm reminded of. To paraphrase, someone spat on the Buddha and then the next day started apologizing for what he had done. Then the Buddha said something along the lines of "Why are you apologizing? You never spat on me. The person who spat on me is not here anymore" Basically, our identity is always changing. If you feel guilty about it and you've acknowledged your mistake, then you've already evolved to a different person now. You just need to make amends and move on.

@Nak Khid It really is nothing, not how you're imagining it though. It is completely impossible to imagine BTW, because your mind is finite and can only know finite things, whereas nothingness is infinite and without duality. It's like trying to imagine what having no eyesight is like, it's just absent. There is the experience of it being absent. You don't see black, you don't see any colors, it's just completely gone. That's what turiya is like, but your entire reality is gone along with your eyesight. And you just exist there. I like how Rupert Spira describes it, "absence of absence". Your reality/body becomes nothing but existence is still there. It's a paradox to the finite mind. Pure consciousness would just be pure awareness with nothing else, aka nothingness. What else would it be? What do you think pure awareness is like? It's awareness with nothing else. Pure existence with no content. -

turiya says otherwise -
I see this happen a lot and I just ignore it. Usually they're not really asking for my opinion and they just try to slip it into the conversation. Then i'll just ignore it or try not to validate it. But if they zone in on me and ask for my specific view then i'll try to tell them my view in the most easiest way for them to comprehend. Or I might take occasional jabs at certain things they say. Truth is, a lot of people won't be ready for the truth so you can't just throw it in their face or they will attack back to keep their ego alive. This happens a lot with my friends who are very unconscious and I know it will lead to conflict if I straight up called them out. You just gotta be gentle with it or ignore it for the time being. If you're too confrontational with it, their worldview will lock up and it will just become an ego fight. It is a tricky thing.

you've never experienced anything outside of your awareness -
Feminism simply means equality for both men and women, which is a nice ideal. There are very radical versions of "feminism" which seem to have given it a bad rep though.

This is me with my friends basically. They're all massive devils and I know i'm gonna have to probably let them go some day but when I interact with them I always feel like I have to conform or things will turn awkward. I already struggle with social anxiety and I don't like getting into conflict.

Because reality is infinite but our mind is finite so it likes to see things in finite and limited ways. When this limited way of looking at the world is challenged the finite mind cannot fully comprehend it because it can only comprehend limitations and differences. -
Do not personify your hate. If a tornado hit your house and destroyed it would you hold anger towards the tornado? No. That's just how the tornado is, you can't blame it for that. The ego always likes to put blame on something and once it puts blame on something that's where anger cultivates. This effectively diverts attention from your ego onto something else. You wouldn't get mad at a crocodile for trying to bite your arm off because that's all it knows how to do. That's how it survives. It is too ignorant to understand morals or even consider empathising with you. That's just how they are. The people who do low-consciousness things literally don't know any better. If they did, they wouldn't be doing those things. It is not accurate to look at what they are doing from a high-consciousness perspective. It is like expecting the crocodile to know morals and not bite your arm off and then becoming morally outraged at it when it does do those things. Leo's forgiveness episode is also amazing if you're really struggling

You could just fast. I like doing it that way cause it is more simple and doesn't take much planning. It also gets you into ketosis faster.

I've done intermittent, which isn't as extreme. Head felt much clearer. It felt like I broke out of a trance where i was just unconsciously eating all the time. It also made eating food 100x more enjoyable and it made me more grateful. -

@Unwiring Lol Jim just doesn't care. I don't think he's trying to convert her to spirituality or anything he is just having fun with it by saying it out in the open. -

Perhaps you are avoiding some work in your life and expecting some outside force to take care of it. I say this because you were scared of the snake and expected the owl to take care of it. Paying attention to the emotions you feel helps. -
Osaid replied to Antor8188's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
If it's causing you suffering that's an obvious trait of the ego. Become more observant in seeing its mind games. It seems to me your ego has hijacked your shroom experience and contorted it into some solipsistic story -

To answer the title, I don't think so. Even with enlightenment I don't think you are immune to addictions and the ego still has its place. It's just that you more accurately perceive the ego's existence and place in your reality now. I am not sure how the whole LOC system works, but being addicted to something probably lowers your consciousness to some degree. You're basically asking is it possible to regress into egoic habits even after enlightenment, and I would say yes.
