Nothing, in particular

If you’re just trying to do this at home, a dark room, blindfold, ear plugs should be more than enough. But if you can afford it and you have one near you - I’d just go to a business that has a sensory deprivation tank. They're the best for what your trying to do. Sound proof rooms, you can only hear your heart beat. Light proof rooms, you can’t see whether your eyes are open or not. You can’t even feel the water because it is the same temperature as your skin. Point being they’re great.

@Endangered-EGO You came to us for help and now you claim to know what will work? Your cockyness clouds your ability to recognize that you too do not have a full understanding of the duality between the conceptions and the higher self. What @Nos7algiK is saying is quite similar to what I am saying.

@Endangered-EGO We need to appreciate the use of language. you may not understand how connected to your psyche it is. i’m not just playing word games, but I am sorry it sounds like that I do have to poke people sometimes in my own stupid way to aggravate them and let them know this is serious The place you went has no room for you. When you don’t want to go there anymore, you’re welcome when you accept it, the paradoxes is it changes can you stop trying to get rid of yourself?love yourself honestly Then you need not be here anymore No self

@Endangered-EGO I never said there was not an experience of no self, I just said that if there was - you couldn’t do it by definition. I am willing to believe, absolutely that there was an experience of no self. you misunderstand me. but explaining is futile becauseyou are way beyond that and what I’m saying is retarted, lmao Maybe you’d feel what you want if you got rid of your beliefs that certain things are retarted, that your way beyond ego dilution and that theres this experience separate from you that you have to get. or you can keep misinterpreting people who are just talking and keep calling people names because you’re clearly butt hurt. Not my fault you misunderstood me and thought I said you didn’t have your experience. Would an egoless man have been so offended?

@hoodrow trillson If there ceases to be an ‘I,’ by definition, you did not experience anything. There would be no you to/it’s not the you you think it is.

‘I had an experience of no-self.’ Do you see the problem here? No-self = no you. How could you experience something that requires you not to exist?

Water can not be ground zero for consciousness. Consciousness itself is ground zero.

Has anyone here had any physical health issues with taking mushrooms, specifically micro dosing? From what I have seen there is some concern about HT2B receptors in the heart being effected, specifically with prolonged microdosing. You'd perhaps think it were more likely in regular doses but I believe that has something to do with consistent vs occasional usage. I have already done mushrooms, just twice, 1.7gs. I am not looking to either micro dose (3-4 days on 3-4 off for 1-2 weeks) or take another 1.7 g dose. Has anyone here encountered physical health issues with any of this?

@Goldzilla I typed out a big thing, already sent it and am now editing to hope you see this version first. Pre edit was very sarcastic, sorry for that. I’d just like to ask now. You good? Have any health issues? I’m not even familiar with you.

@dflores321 It was a joke. Jesus, real or not, is generally regarded as having high consciousness. Donald Trump, generally is regarded as having low consciousness. The joke was the if what Goldzilla is saying is true, the hypothetically Donald would’ve died earlier and someone like Jesus or Gandhi or whoever your guru is shall live forever. It was a joke. Doesn’t matter if Jesus is real or not. Edit: well it probably does to the Christians ?

@Goldzilla If health is directly correlated to LOC, Donald Trump would be dead by now and Jesus would have never died. Stop talking out of your ass. You have contradicted yourself numerous times and also have provided 0 evidence for anything you claim. You could seriously mislead someone into thinking they just need to become enlightened and raise their LOC and then they will be healed. If your LOC were as high as you claim it to be there wouldn’t be a difference between being healthy or not. If you’re doing this as a troll, which it seems you are not, but if you are, good one. If you are being serious, which it seems you are, I wish you the best because you may have health problems of your own and that would explain your fixation on this senseless correlation. The last thing I will consider is this as a misunderstanding. Surely, yes, the higher your LOC the more apt you are to manage your health - but there are no guarantees you can fix it all.

@Goldzilla Your arguments are circular and not well thought. People can certainly gauge what you do or do not know. For instance, I play guitar and will know for a fact if you can or can not by watching you playing. Just like people here know whether your words mean something just by reading what you type. Besides how do you know that I do not know what you do or do not know; you’re assuming you know what I can know but I can not know what you know. A clever argument, but a poor one ultimately. You’re talking out of your ass. Absolutely nothing personal about this. A spade is a spade, I love you all the same either way.

@Gabith God is everything and nothing; infinite. So technically God is a man and woman, but to limit God to that is foolish. God is no more a man than it is seafood and no more seafood than it is the sky, etc etc.

@Goldzilla You dunno what God is lmao

@BipolarGrowth If you know it affects your physical health, it’s not too much of a jump to see how it can affect your consciousness.

@Goldzilla You do not know what you’re talking about. Sure, self development, enlightenment, good health, etc. can go hand and hand but not to the level you are saying. If it can it is one of the rarest things known to man. You have no experience with it regardless which is why you continue to push your ‘perspective’ and ‘view’ on it like a devil.

I remember in kindergarten or first grade I grabbed a GI Joe book for the first time and decided to give it a try. As I grabbed it and was walking away, one of my friends began telling me how lame the book was and shaming me a little for choosing it (this is elementary school mind you, no grudge here, I find it hilarious). I put the book back, he picks it up and I realize it was the only one. He checks it out. I got swindled.

I agree with Leo on this one, IQ tests are a one dimensional measurement of intelligence. Nonetheless, he’d probably score at least a 160, if not closer to 200 lol.

The answer is relative to you. What do you think when you imagine your life purpose? Career? To me, it’s the difference between self ignited discipline and freedom, a life purpose, and wage slavery and dependence, a career. A career will get me some security and certainly cash (nothing wrong with that) but leave me dependent and mechanical. A life purpose, done effectively with patience, could hypothetically (because I’m not there yet) provide a comparable amount of cash and security while leaving room for creativity and perhaps more importantly, purpose. The difference between just surviving and truly living. Of course it’s easier to just keep the job I have now.

@BipolarGrowth If your implication is that bestiality is bad, you have missed the point.

@Thought Art I forget who it was, a monk or someone responded with ‘a turd’ after being asked ‘what is enlightenment.’ Something like that idk really. But, yes, a profound shit. Everything is profound I love it - which is why I responded with something so stupid. To appreciate the profoundness of something other than a ‘spiritual teaching.’

I am currently in the midst of a deep, profound, shit.

Firstly, I am not interested in Mahasamadhi itself, more so the thoughts around it on this forum. I am also curious on the attitude of physical death and/or suicide I have noticed on this forum. I am by no means suggesting these at all. Again, I am curious on the perspective of these things, here on the forum, not the things themselves. Is it for liability reasons the dialogue is so back and forth on such topics as suicide, mahasamadhi, physical death, etc.? Right after the mention of someone committing suicide and the specific and general warnings that followed, via one of the newest videos, I could not help but notice Leo telling someone the quickest way to end suffering is to kill yourself, on the forum. Or maybe he just said die; I may not be remembering correctly. Of course the specific context would change the meaning of what he said, yet either way it leads me to ask, what is the stance on physical death, killing yourself physically and Mahasamadhi on this forum? Sometimes I hear something like ‘that’s not what we do here’ and other times it’s seems more welcomed than not. My impression is this has a lot to do with liability and it is hard to express here on the forum. It is probably quite difficult to articulate the ‘meaninglessness’ of the topics above while also portraying their severity and seriousness. Edit/PS: I am seeking clarity on these subjects; not trying to accuse or give criticism. I love you all and it is not often I find a message that is not clear and concise from this community. So, when I do, here we are.
