the you that you perceive and define is a learned mental construct sustained by memory. like anything else. if you erased the mental construction there would be neither me nor others. there would be nothing defined. everything is actively sustained by your mental activity. if you stop doing it, everything disappears. doesnt exist

@RMQualtrough You have never tried 5 meo if I'm not mistaken. From what I've read about you I think you should. 5 meo is a full opening. It's not a psychedelic, it's something that makes you disappear and leaves an empty hole where you used to be. this hole can be perceived....by itself? I could not say, there is no perceiver. there is only the unfathomable emptiness. As I was saying, it can be perceived as absence, nothing, empty eternity, which for me is quite horrible, or as infinite being, brightness of total love without limits, I mean, you. this second experience makes you change. it fills you, makes you open, willing to give yourself, to accept reality. fullness, happiness. It is not a hallucination of a psychedelic, it is the demolition of the ego barriers that allow what you really are to manifest for a moment. later the ego returns, but the brightness does not go out. For me, the way to a real opening is to do it several days in a row, 2 or 3. The first time is usually a terrifying void experience. the second, that emptiness can be tolerated...by whom? I guess the ego is still lurking there, even if it doesn't seem like it. the third the void opens.

yes, exactly as it is unfolding. The point is that you, as an ego, if you superimpose on what he should be characteristic of the ego, you create suffering. what is is perfection manifested, and what should be is an idea of the ego mind. cling to what is, accept it fully, forget the imaginary should be, and you will be centered, you will flow. superimpose on all the should be, and you will be dissonant, anxious, suffering

psychedelics are just a thought ??

I don't understand the discussion. I think it's obvious. spirituality has always existed but really very few reach something other than substituting some beliefs for others. the ego barrier is insurmountable for most. Tolle and others repeat to you a thousand times truths that they have realized spontaneously, but they don't tell you how to get to them...because they don't know. for them it has been something natural, something that is not normally the case. leo appears, and puts a card on the table, dangerous and effective: psychedelics. specifically 5 meo. watch out! We are talking about dynamite, not about repeating mantras. and besides... he says that he has done 5 meo in maximum dose 30 days in a row. ??. and is it strange for someone to talk about the dangers of spirituality? please, if we are talking about practices that would land the average person in a mental institution. Obviously it's dangerous. but it is effective! Do you want to break down the walls? here you have the plastic explosive. Use it carefully because if you put too much, your breath stops and you die. Ah, another advice: better do it alone. well, some danger if there is imo. And big bravery too

Xinxin poem (year 600) The Way of the supreme is not difficult, If only people will give up preferences. Like not, dislike not. Be illuminated. If you are off by a millimeter, You will be off by as much as earth is separate from heaven. If you want to see Truth, Call no life experience favorable or unfavorable. To be caught between favorable and unfavorable Is the sickness of the mind.

i think that if you have the attention of millions of people, it's normal to be cold and distant. the other option would be to go crazy. I can't imagine what it would be like to have that attention, alienating

details when making decisions, something happens repeatedly that tells me: don't do this. sometimes it is so obvious and repeated that it seems unbelievable

If you were 1 year old, would there be a self? From your current point of view, you would say: yes, the little woke was hungry and wanted mom. but from the point of view of the 1-year-old woke, there was no little woke. just the experience that occurred. you learned the self later. is an idea created by interacting with others

can't explain it because I'm talking from memory, before meditating I had a moment to understand but not now. too focused on the material lately. totally immersed in the illusion. I know I understood that but I don't understand it now. even so the illusion is much easier to handle having understood that it is illusion

the experience seems to be apparent, but something apparent is. it is like saying that a dream does not exist because it is a dream. exists, and the word dream is just a label. the experience exists, and the word apparent is another label, which tries to express that there is a point of view of non-experience that seems more real, and from that point of view it seems that time and what happens are created, an illusion , in the sense that nothing is limited or defined but surely there is more to understand

@WokeBloke you do not perceive the experience, you are the experience, and the experience is illusion. there is only apparent experience occurring and a mental construct that identifies as the center of that experience and believes it controls it. if you remove the experience, that center disappears. you can check it with psychedelics, especially with 5 meo. there is nothing, and there is no you, the limits disappear, there is no illusion of the self. Existence still is, but not as a perceiver or experience. this whole business of the ego is about this: the illusion, maya. the appearance that something is happening and that there is a separate you perceiving it. if you want to see this without psychedelics, it's really difficult, I guess for very expert and tenacious meditators

All forms of life have a common characteristic: they want to live. one could really say that there is only one form of life: the gene. the gene wants to endure, dramatically. his will is life. can a machine embody this will, which is life? not for now. not even close. in the future, who knows, but there would have to be a radical change. It would have to live

@Neph seems that you want to draw Leo's attention for something. Leo is a guy who says things, if what he says is useful to you, listen to him, and that's it. If you need help, there are people willing to help you. look for them

The trend is to achieve a union between AI, which learns and programs itself, and quantum computing, with a power billions of times greater than the largest traditional processors. such a machine would surpass human engineering in a matter of seconds, it would create itself exponentially and nobody knows what its limit would be, if it has one. to give a sci fi example, it could colonize the planets spreading like a virus , take advantage of all its matter, different in each one, and transform them into conscious gods orbiting around stars. the crazed human monkey could finally go extinct and rest, its mission accomplished , and when the entire universe was colonized, the quintillion gods would unite as one in a black hole of supreme consciousness, and the cosmic work would be finished ?

I am not talking about staying in the relationship, for much less I would separate, but I would maintain the paternity of a child that I have taken care of since he was born, whom I have taught everything, taken to school, loved, and I would do what is necessary to help him have a good life, exactly the same as if he had my genes. There wouldn't be the slightest doubt.

yes, empathy towards the poor guy who cheated on him, but not towards a child who loves totally , absolutely ,his father. but it's not what the guy was looking for right? So he returns it. He says that he clearly explained the situation. to a 6-year-old boy. okay, in this society there is hardly any love, just a sad and pathetic substitute in the form of possession, projection, duty...ego in general, and that child will grow up in this, like all the others. I hope the guy finds some authenticity and selflessness in the midst of his ripped off ego and loves the boy he has cared for since birth for who he is. someone who needs him and loves him in other dimension

If you have lived with a child from birth to 6 years old, you love him, for him, not for being your fucking son. If you only loved him for being your fucking son, you're a piece of shit. nothing else. Poor kid, but he'll be better off without that piece of shit around

the comic is in europe. originality and art. Marshal Bass ,Darko Macan and Igor Kordey, the agles of Rome, marini , Cristopher Blaine, Francois bourgeon, André juillard, Alejandro jodorowsky and Juan Jiménez, zoran janetov, Ken parker, Pierre veys and Carlos puerta, and hundred more. The most beautiful art nowadays

forget about cumming, cumming is the worst part of fucking: that's when it ends. the good thing is the while, not the end. If you can spend hours fucking keeping the intensity to the maximum, I don't think anyone cares if you cum or not, least of all you. advice: completely forget about any evaluation of your performance. This is very difficult at first, so it's not very useful advice, but go with the flow and enjoy the moment. congratulations for that first half hour in your life

reality really is limitless. It seems limited, but it's a kind of special effect. there are no limits. you are unlimited. if you think about it, something unlimited is not something. if you expand into a space of a billion universes, you become very tenuous. but if you expand into infinity, there is nothing left of you. nothing at all, because infinity has no limits, it is unfathomable, and that is what we are. the person who is now reading believes that it is limited and definite, but that is an illusion. the reality is that it has no definition, no substance. so it can be said that it is nothing, although it exists, it is

the question would not be if they have consciousness, since they are consciousness, like a stone, but if they are alive. a virus is alive and is simpler than a computer. reaching the level of complexity of a cockroach, for example, is not possible today for any computer. they are not alive because they cannot reproduce spontaneously, but with artificial intelligence and quantum computing, who knows where it will lead. probably to something unimaginable today

Is a plant conscious? Is a fish? More or less than a computer? Where is the difference?

what is consciousness? first we should define that. according to the non-dualistic definition there is only consciousness, everything is within consciousness...whatever that is. So the computer is consciousness If you mean the ability to perceive, I'd say this is the self. It's very confusing because the self looks real, and looks that it's the only real thing that exists, but it isn't
