Oppositionless

This next year I'm going to prioritize my health over all. I've decided to give up the alpha ideal , cancel my gym membership and instead spend my money on physical activity I actually enjoy (yoga classes). Gym is quite boring to me but the alpha programming told me I should try to get bigger.

@Miguel1 Ive deepened my realization of God more this year more then any other but in the human domain I still have so much self hatred . It's a strange place to be.

Lmaooo Okay but still , it's very easy to get 4 subs at smoke shops in the US

It's almost certainly a 4- sub tryptamine. 4 pro dmt is being used in some lately instead of 4 aco, there's also 4 ho met which is quite distinct from mushrooms.

My favorite for researching is grok. Claude still glazes sometimes .

@cetus I think there's an intrinsic difficulty in comparing psychedelic vs meditative experiences that is responsible for our apparent disagreement , because I relate to exactly what you just said now . It's just that in the case of the psychedelic it's accompanied by more "extra" energies, primarily a feeling of intensity leading up to the ego death .

I've experienced emptiness of mind and loss of identification with experience (this might be Turiya depending on your definition) but not the total cessation of experience as in Niroda , or Nirvikalpa samadhi. Im working on my humor so I say things sometimes specifically because they make me laugh , but what I really meant when I said b sleep is from the animal body is sleep is merging with Brahman by decreasing consciousness and awakening is merging with Brahman by increasing consciousness.

I'd reccomend looking into Jean Gebser's stages of consciousness , and the YouTuber Formscapes' videos on them. I find that model more useful than SD.

God is just consciousness... wrong ?

It gave me the impression that death is the end of illusion because it's the end of the ego. And that the only non illusory state is the highest state . I'm not confident what that entails in terms of fine details, like duration or what comes "'next"

Okay, but that's not deep sleep . Deep sleep is from the animal body, it's not ultimate . Buddhism has niroda samapatti which is complete loss of consciousness Whatever the highest state of consciousness is is what happens after death; not the lowest, sleep, looking to the physical world ,

Yes . That's what my 5 meo dmt experiences have indicated. And some, but not all, NDEs culminate in infinite consciousness. But it's not you being conscious of infinity, it's more like infinity's self-recognition. It could be different , obviously I haven't physically died, but that’s how these experiences (5 meo, some NDEs) are often interpreted phenomenologically, and how I interpreted my two breakthroughs on 5 meo.

Not a ghost. God / infinity. Another way of saying it is, yes the ego dissolves in both deep sleep and death , but in sleep that dissolution is accompanied by zero consciousness while at deaths it's accompanied by infinite consciousness.

TL:DR Math helps you understand the manifest world , but not the unmanifest source. -------------------------- This is somewhat tangential, but have you noticed that when people argue for idealism it's usually to explain some of the parts of reality that materialism cant seem to explain? Such as consciousness , or remote viewing, or near death experiences, or the observer effect in quantum mechanics. Those are all valid reasons to be an idealist but I think another equally valid reason is that idealism explains basic physics better than materialism . Physics doesn't really describe matter , it describes math, and math comes from mind . Math is a different kind of experience than sensation. It's internally generated. It can provide insight into the physical world, almost like reverse engineering how God constructs the world. But it can be a source of delusion too. Because reality and intelligibility are infinite , illusion is also infinite . There's a place for intellectual understanding, but peace and absolute truth are found in non coneptual being. If math can teach you about the Saguna Brahman , God with qualities, pure being can teach you about Nirguna Brahman, God without qualities.

If anything, you might be able to plug the liquid if the nasal route doesn't work. I ended up doing that, but it seemed to have made my butt dry for awhile , ymmv.

I think deep sleep is actually the complete opposite of death. In deep sleep the filter is at max power, in death the filter goes away. And in waking life the filter is at like 50% power.

Deep sleep is so weird to me. If everything is God / consciousness I'm not sure how deep sleep or anasthesia could even exist, so I thought what if there's really just an unbroken chain of experience from falling asleep to waking up . Death could be the same, although I don't exactly see why it should necessarily be anything like sleep, sleep occurs while the brain is still active. Comparing death to sleep is natural but not really grounded in anything but assumption.

Oh yeah dude my first purchase of 5 meo was nasal spray and it ended up being a big waste of time in terms of having a breakthrough dose ... if you try to take a full release dose in that form you're in for a bad time, I came very close to puking , absolutely foul liquid . But I can see how it wouldn't be too bad if you legitimately just wanted to microdose . Probably even better for microdosing than a cartridge.

Also I don't see the Absolute as a moral agent in itself . Rather, the absolute contains both good and evil , and good is actualized when an individual realizes the absolute.

Idk if God has free will, I don't think all-powerful necessarily implies it. Maybe God doesn't choose what he creates? Or he can choose either to create this, seemingly flawed world, or nothing at all.

At least you're not a wild animal.

https://nhmu.utah.edu/articles/experts-explore-new-mushroom-which-causes-fairytale-hallucinations Completely different from shrooms / psilocybin. Not similar to any known psychedelic. Also completely different from deliriants like datura, this mushroom could represent an entirely new class of hallucinogen: little-people-delics (Lilliputianogens). To me it seems they most resemble deliriants , but lack the downsides . "When outsiders first embarked into the Western Highlands of Papua New Guinea in 1934, they encountered a perplexing sight: after consuming a type of wild mushroom which they called “nonda,” the local people would appear to go temporarily insane, exhibiting a sudden and striking change in mood and behavior ...Specifically, it was reported that those affected would experience lilliputian hallucinations — a rare, clinically defined psychiatric syndrome (named after the tiny people in Gulliver's Travels) characterized by the perception of numerous little people autonomously moving about and interacting in the real-world environment. One elder tribesman in Papua New Guinea describes this effect, explaining how “he saw tiny people with mushrooms around their faces. They were teasing him, and he was trying to chase them away.” "A professor in Yunnan recounted how one evening during dinner (Jian shou qing is openly sold in markets and restaurants), he began seeing swirling shapes and colors after eating stir-fried mushrooms. Since the psychoactive effects are familiar to most locals, he began looking for xiao ren ren but was disappointed to find none — until he lifted the tablecloth and peeked underneath, seeing “hundreds of xiao ren ren, marching like soldiers.”

I actually think meditation and self enquiry can be really powerful when paired with a hardcore philosophical inquiry into God. The problem is no one does that .

I propose 1) partial kappa opioid modulation 2) partial cholinergic modulation As mechanisms

No can you reach a level of understanding god without 5 meo dmt absolutely how much? Depends on the person . How much do you want to understand God? 5 meo dmt causing real purging , not ayahusca bullshit poisoning purging
