Ufff even 10 min without moving a millimeter is challenging. I just don't see the usefulness ... strengthen the character maybe? Know that if you move your back one cm it will eliminate your discomfort and pain and not doing it is the most unpleasant

thanks for sharing. I did not know this practice. My legs and back hurt after reading your report. I find it extremely interesting, I am going to try it, although given my undisciplined nature I foresee ridiculous results in time, although perhaps interesting

In most European countries, psilocybe, 5meo, lsd analogues, are legal, but almost no one is interested in them. hardly anyone knows that they are even legal. Even the most intelligent and cultured people don't even know what the ego is, the transcendence, the mystique. If you try to explain it to them they will look at you as if you were retarded. If you talk to them about psychedelics, it will be as if they tell me about a sexual practice that consists of pissing me in the face. they live in their world of instagram and Netflix, and there is no way to make them understand anything

the voice of the mind is me. and I am not something but an activity. separation activity between me and what is not me.what the voice says has no meaning or sense, it is only activity of separation. there is nothing to know , i know the same as a bird, nothing. but I'm more separated. If I were not separate, my apparent being would merge with everything and would cease to exist as such. the impossibility of stopping the mind occurs for fear of ceasing to be. and indeed, if it stops, the separate self ceases to be. therefore the separate self, which is separating activity, cannot stop the mind. its nature is activity, not stop. But the self can realize its nature and accept its place, relax and surrender, at least in specific moments. there will always be activity and voice of the mind, until the apparent being ceases, but it may only be the essential imo

@impulse9 refreshing attitude. All we are dumb

the important thing is the big torch, to flambé desserts. If you heat with a small one the substance will take time to vaporize, part will be condensed on the walls of the pipe, and you will not inhale all

I think the same. If you are, for example, a rat, programmed to survive, you may be afraid of being eaten by a cat, so you run away. If you are human, survival is completely linked to social acceptance. if they expel you from the cave, you die. to perceive rejection is to perceive death, but unlike the rat you cannot run away. the feeling of separation is unbearable, in extreme cases it can lead to a breakdown of the mind and psychosis. in normal cases the mind creates these knots, blind spots of enormous anxious energy that are established at the core of the system created by the mind creating separation. once you see what they are, they can be unleashed, especially if you have had some liberation experience in which you have mixed with the whole (psychedelics for that)

the mind is a survival tool. humans have to remember things and plan for the future to survive. we also have genetically encoded language, which makes us build a very complex social system. the mind that remembers and projects is very focused on social relationships, since survival depends on them. These relationships have verbal communication as the main vehicle. the mind focuses entirely on this and creates a system of self-worth that depends on what we think we represent to others. a movie of loves, grievances, betrayals, comparisons, attachments, fears, adjectives is created. a kind of soap opera that becomes our only reality. This anxious and half-crazy mind that clings to a world and an identity created by itself, cannot stop, because if it do, the movie collapses, so although there is no one around to interpret the theatre, it interprets it itself. The imaginary self talking with itself. A kind of madness that affect whole humankind I believe that the virulence of the soap opera is proportional to the rejection that you have received or believed to receive. if it becomes unbearable, it is when you seek enlightenment. It can also be for other reasons I suppose, but this is one of weight

@Someone here Yeah it is, is a kind of loop that humans enter and from which to exit is very difficult, but if you don't go out there is no rest, since your substance is anxiety. spirituality is an instruction manual to get out of the loop. Going out is liberating, it means abandoning everything, but if you realize that "everything" is anxiety, you can abandon it without any problem. Really painful and stressing, It's surprising that humans can endure 80 years with that stress, I guess we've evolved for that @Javfly33 thanks friend

I deleted because I thought it was a nonsense...each person's experience is very different. however, courage is very important and it is something that can be cultivated. fears are completely overcome, the metaphor of the elephant is good.

I think that the more times you get out of the egoic mind, even if you come back, the easier it will be to get out again. you have already seen its unreality, you know the magician's trick, as you say, even if you fall a thousand times again. I see it as you are stuck in the mental tangle of events, traumas, ideas, and suddenly you have a eureka moment and instantly all that castle falls and you are in the present naked. the tension that you didn't even notice disappears and there is a feeling of total liberation. there is no separation between you and what you see, it is obvious, it always was, all that you wanted to overcome was a mirage, nothing at all. you sail in freedom, reality is paradise since nothing prevents it. Suddenly, for example, you think: how wonderful, but if I had had this freedom before, it would have been better. It was because of what happened, etc ... and enter the labyrinth again. You have been involved in this for many years, it is a habit. I do not think that it is a matter of a moment as eckart tolle says, it is a game of chess against yourself

I find it strange that completely materialistic people are not seriously depressed. I think they use subconscious mechanisms to avoid facing what they see as reality: a world of fragility where existence consists of a struggle to remain lost beforehand. a true dystopia

Well, there are different voices, they talk to each other, they argue, there are also images, situations, theaters, memories, they provoke emotions, even supposedly pleasant sensations, but deep down their substance is anxiety. when they speak there is always a kind of knot tightening. the problem is that you do not notice that knot because you always have it. If they shut up, it is like a soap bubble that explodes and there is no longer self, there is only the naked experience without separation, but after a while they return, they are the most persistent, and you cannot silence them because you are them

@Mosess refers (I suppose) to the self as an imaginary separate entity, which is a psychological resistance to the flow of the now that occurs out of the need for survival / acceptance and that becomes a phantom entity that creates a fictitious separation between you and what it's not you

imagine that "before" there was no existence, but "after" there was existence. So when did existence begin? for example, right now, since "before" there wasn't. but that before never happened, since it did not exist, instead the "now" exists, so logically, it was always now, since there is nothing else

the voice in your head is the manifestation of your need for control. your need for control is a need to keep yourself separate. your need to keep yourself separate comes from the sense of external threat that you have perceived. So the voice in your head is fear

it's a real mindfuck to think about that. eternity ... the mind shudders, rejects the idea. There is no such thing as a beginning of God, since God is nothing. it was always there, because it is always right now, time is apparent. we are the pure, unfathomable and timeless nothingness that rejoices in its infinity. There is no before or after, there is only that, now, the totality

those paragraphs are perfect. the one in the middle is exactly what I needed to hear now

@Raptorsin7 I don't know exactly how to do this either, it's a difficult process. I have been educated in lies, in shame, from the beginning, and it is not enough to break free with psychedelic or during meditation, after he old patterns return. you have to make a continuous effort to see the tendency to make up reality and be completely honest at all times, without any exception. The lightest lie is a brick that you carry yourself with and a base for other lies, which create a structure. even a silly lie, an excuse, does this. it is essential to eliminate them completely

I believe that no self is the beginning of spirituality, not its end. when you realize that the self is a tangle of thoughts that form an entity that suffers and is in permanent questioning, and that underneath that tangle there is nothing, no self, only the experience that occurs, it is enormously liberating. then the self returns, gets hooked and continues with its activity, but it becomes easier to deactivate it. I suppose that when it is deactivated in prolonged times, the doors of perception will open more and more, because without self, there is only opening .for now i disable it enough to see i've been living in madness because of a misunderstanding

Well I suppose that the first thing is to see how fundamental it is to cleanse oneself of lies, shame, concealment, and then really want to do it. It helps to be completely open in dealing with others, total honesty, and psilocybin in medium doses is very useful to me to bring to light what is hidden. I still have lies, accumulating them for a long time, it is a pleasure to bring them up, the result is lightness

is there a lie in your life? If you cleanse yourself of all lies until you are totally empty, you will be satisfied with yourself because you will be what you are

Yeah, a reaction. it is not the self that thinks the thoughts but rather the thoughts that create the self that is wishing. With meditation you can see this, that thoughts are the need of control , that is the self. if the self disappears, the naked experience remains, which does not need a self to be, but is somehow a self

The most common type of depressed people are empty inside, who try to fill their emptiness with external things, but it is impossible. some seem very positive and active, they are fleeing forward from that void. they cannot understand that it is within themselves that they have to search. their sense of incompleteness is increasing, and in the end they become empty shells without love, in need of many things. the way is the opposite, obviously, but they are too selfish to stop and realize it, always thinking, wishing, remembering, judging

Depression is when you bombard yourself with negative thoughts. You do this because you think that reality, and you, should be different from what they are, but you cannot change or accept it.
