My relationship with my body has gotten better over time, most issues come from not being in tune and on the same page with it. Something I work on everyday.

Paul Hedderman would be perfect for you, he’s an alcoholic that found freedom from his addiction through non-duality (kudos to the person who shared his vids on the thread). I’d take the option of checking into rehab or Alcohol Anonymous seriously. You’ll need a support group. Sending love your way.

If meditation could do what psychedelics could, I’m sure no one would even bother with seeking out psychedelics for spiritual work. But I’ll have to experiment to truly find out .. I know I do see many on the forum that discourage the use of psychedelics, but I’m quite skeptical of that assertion..especially those who have no direct experience of them. Not only religious people, but also Buddhist, New Agers and Neo Advaita people. Many actively avoid the idea that could ever be God.

That’s cute. If it exists in your direct experience, then it is of your choosing. You can only grasps this through God realization. All of reality is your imagination, what is imagined is imagined by choice. Again, your ego will not want to accept this because it has preferences. It doesn’t make sense to it that it would choose / imagine something that goes against its survival.

Lol why should we listen to what Nahm says? You are already “should-ing” while criticizing the act itself. Is Nahm your God or something?

Where in my previous post did I mention what meditation didn't do for me? Unlike others, I'm not going to close the case on spiritual practices I have yet to experience (in this case psychedelics). Thanks Leo.

Creation is the choice that is being made .. at all times, infinitely. On top of that, you are the Creator of reality, every aspect.

Best psychedelic for this? I love my meditation, but ready for the next level.

What’s essential is separating the ego’s will from God’s will. The reason an ego will not buy into infinite will is because it’s idea of will is that which it can use to serve itself..which is highly partial. However, God’s will has no partiality to it, it does not care what is being brought up in awareness, it appreciates its Being alone .. including that which is considered relatively bad to the ego. Therefore God’s Will is existence .. and existence is infinite. The egos will is that which is in existence that serves it survival, which is limited and partial. Going from ego to God unlocks true Will.

The word imagination works well in replacing the ‘will’. Imagination is infinite of course, no beginning and no end in sight.

The body is a finite fragment of mind.. so the answer is yes. Whats needed is a change in psychology regarding the health and maintenance of the body. Starting with self-love.

Amen .. not to mention it’s probably expensive AF to buy a house in Vegas.. irrespective of location.

I just realized the person in the video is you! . Kudos to you creating your own platform man, all the best.

Forgiveness comes from the heart, not the head. Reason and logic is a function of the head, love is a function of the heart. We forgive ourselves and others by simply seeing the innate goodness in all beings, despite our negative judgements about what we should and should not have done. A sound principle: we all act out of good intentions, no matter the circumstances and outcomes.

Only for people who are not comfortable with their sexuality, mainly due to a lack of experience and a denial of sexual cravings. Doesn’t help to be all spiritual with a bad case of blue balls as a guy.

I second this.

Suffering is largely self inflicted. The way we perceive our lives and the lives of others is at the heart of human suffering.

@Lyubov Have you even been to Vegas?

Me too!

Yup, that's all you can do.

~ 2 years None; only THC (if considered a psychedelic) 1 hour daily Better; understanding of reality is everything. (Can make things confusing at times, but it's all worth it). Make sure you have a relatively healthy mental, physical and emotional state before pursuing spirituality.

This might happen when one realizes that our efforts to enlighten "others" are futile .. and that you are only thing that Exists in the Universe .. Therefore there are no "other" beings for a spiritual ego to be superior to, and to educate.

Lol never said I had a problem.

There is some truth to this perspective in a sense that a lot of folks do make the mistake in making this work about Leo .. therefore turning him into their guru, lord and savior that they worship on a daily. It’s one of the biggest distractions one can fall into with Actualized.org. FYI - you are imagining Leo .

I agree to some extent. On the path, we become aware of reality as having no distinctions. But what we become is the Creator of the reality in which we see no distinctions. This is how I separate the basic insights of Non-Duality from actual God-Realization. (I acknowledge that this distinction can be collapsed on the simple truth that they are both mental constructions). This is based on two of questions which are: 1. What is reality? 2. What is my relationship to it? Feeling into can answer number one, becoming (otherwise known as Being) can answer number two. But then again .. all of this is just words, language is way too limited to convey anything of deep substance.
