To put my all into something, and to commit to something without giving up. This is interesting, I guess I could actually strive to integrate my life purpose with a job in the Army

Fault of the media

Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the ( Ordinary ) flu kills 290,000 to 650,000 people per year. So far this virus has killed a VERY small portion of that number, and since we are working hard on a cure ( especially here in Australia ), I highly doubt it will surpass that number.

Or at least very close to it Very true, can induce a psychotic break

First of all, I know weed generally isn't considered a psychedelic, and I don't usually use it for personal development (nor for recreation), but hear me out. A few days ago, I decided to take 1 tab of LSD (approx. 200ug) in preparation for a more intense 600ug trip in the coming weeks. The trip itself wasn't anything special, as I was just trying to ease myself back into the headspace of the psychedelic experience before I took the other 3 tabs that are stored in my fridge. However, I was starting to do some interesting self-inquiry as the peak of the trip passed, and I felt as if there was something I "missed", like I was about to realise something, but it was cut short as the effects of the drug faded. ( yes this is vague, I easily forget things while on LSD ) Anyway, later that night, the effects of the LSD were no longer present. I decided to roll a joint with about a gram of weed in it, with the intention of "reviving" the LSD that I took earlier. After smoking about 1/4 of the joint, it felt as if I was on a completely different psychedelic. I fell into a EXTREMELY sensitive/suggestive state. I even started to freak out a bit, like I was about to spiral into a bad trip when a song on my playlist sounded too loud or scary. Anyway, I got what I wanted! I revived the psychedelics in my system, so I made use of it by questioning consciousness, my own psyche and habits, and I also thought about Leos video in which he talks about his experience with AL-LAD, and how it felt as if he could look deeply into any part of his mind and see directly through it without any selfish bias. This caused me to realise I was in a similar state, and it made me feel in control of myself. More in control than I had ever been, and I surrendered to it. I cant quite explain what happened next, but I remember thinking: Leo was right! For the first time during my journey with self actualisation... I seemed to just.. get it! This was followed almost immediately by a sensation that completely took over my perception of reality, as if pure love just washed over me. It was a feeling so intense that I couldn't even move, like I was frozen where I was sitting, unable to comprehend what I was experiencing. I even began to hallucinate. Not patterns or anything like that, but it was as if everything became ALIVE, and every worry I had ever experienced vanished, as well as the anxiety / uncomfortable feeling I get on psychedelics. There was no room for any of those things, because of the essence of whatever I was experiencing. This feeling left me far sooner than I would've like it to, and as I came back to my senses, I realised that my eyes were teary, however I knew they weren't tears of sadness or fear. I just wasn't ready for whatever I just felt. For the rest of the night, I felt as if I was on a higher level of consciousness than I was earlier, and I felt (and still feel) more motivated with self development Could this have been my first "glimpse" of the absolute???

You are clinically insane

The panic over this virus is a fucking joke! Its basically a hyper-contagious common cold! All the people losing their minds over something this insignificant is just hilarious!!!!

I have suffered from this my entire life too. Every day it affects me one way or another, however the trick to beating it is to catch yourself early when you start obsessing over something. I had relationship OCD, and it basically tricked me into thinking I was falling out of love, which caused me immense suffering. I also had POCD ( google it if you want ) The first step is identifying it, which you have done. Now, it is your job to analyse and identify your thoughts, ( obsessions ), and compulsive behaviours. Keep in mind, compulsive behaviours can be mental, and don't necessarily mean you are actually doing something compulsively. This can be difficult. I would recommend researching and learning as much as you can about OCD, until you are basically an expert, and then applying that knowledge to yourself. Once you've identified your obsessions and compulsions, to let go you NEED to resist the urge to carry out those compulsions. This breaks the cycle that defines the mental illness, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. There is light at the end of the tunnel man. I got to the point that I just accepted I would never ever get better, but eventually I did. You can too!

Haha my exact thoughts

Hello all, I am currently in the process of writing down as many notes about self actualisation as I possibly can, just so I have a big book of good information I can easily read over and refer to. Would anyone be able to provide a list, or just some in depth examples for both Soft and Hard addictions? ( Especially soft ) So far, for soft addictions I have: Theorising, Judging, Perfectionism and Criticising.

That is broad to say the least. Video games encompass an endless amount of genres and platforms, some of which can increase your ability to think critically. I've made some lifelong friends playing video games, both in real life and over the internet! That being said, they can be addictive. This is the downside, unfortunately.

We find it a beneficial combination because we are VERY familiar with the weed high, so we can handle ourselves in situations that others would completely freak out, and therefore unlock the hidden potential in it. I'm stoked that I'm not the only one who has had this experience For the gram joint, I got some king size Raw papers, chopped up the buds very well, and once the roll was done I continued putting weed into the end of the joint and packed it down with a little stick. Didn't even get close to finishing it though, I only just started smoking it when the wave of infinite bliss slapped my in the face, lol

You should probably learn some more accurate terminology when it comes to spirituality, consciousness, and whatever you are talking about. Vague terms such as ''Neutral Consciousness'' can be very easily misinterpreted by others...

Sorry about that.. and I can sort of see what you are saying now

Pink Floyd + LSD + 1 Gram joint = hyperspace straight into the heart of the universe Happened to me, I was so shocked that I started crying tears of joy, and only realised that there were tears in my eyes after the feeling passed and I came back to my senses. Here is my recount I wrote while still in shock about what the fuck just happened to me ( if you're interested ) :

Honestly... I would stay away from psychedelics for a while if I were you. Not because your guilt to this angel has any meaning or anything, but because it really seems to me like you aren't ready for DMT. Like, at all. These visions you have had obviously had a lasting effect on you mentally... and that isn't what should be happening Just remember: Your true nature - awareness - is god. YOU are god. You aren't a psychonaut going on some psychedelic adventure to meet god when you smoke DMT. You're just trying to free yourself of ego. And with the mushrooms story - it seems like you're just looking for an excuse to not take DMT again, as @Chakra Lion said. If this is the case, just don't take the damned drugs!

He was saying Koral is different to turquoise as it has a higher degree of self love. But how is this possible if turquoise experiences INFINITE love? So what I'm trying to say is: Koral sounds identical to turquoise. ( I'm probably missing something here, I am still a newbie to this model )

Infinite love is a facet of God, so how would Koral be any more loving than turquoise?

Good one, thanks

You cannot justify it. All you can do is admit you are lazy, oblivious to the suffering it causes, or that you simply do not care. These 3 things are ( in a nutshell) the only reasons people continue to consume animal products.

From what I remember, that is all he listed for soft addictions. Unless I missed something

Then don't follow that path. There is still plenty of other videos and insights that are useful that don't even involve psychedelics. I have a question for you; have you done some serious experimentation with similar drugs such as LSD or Psilocybin?

Just because Leo decides to use DMT doesn't mean you have to, and it also doesn't mean that the teachings he gives for free aren't useful. ( I know this is what caused the argument that lead to this escalation ) Just forget it and move on, no point leaving Actualized forever! No one is saying you have to follow blindly, or disregard everyone else's teachings for Leo's. Not even Leo has said that!

Wait... leaving because you got banned, or because you outgrew it?
