Why would that not make sense? Whatever he gets access to is always going to be private to him, leaving out the ones that are inaccessible at that moment. I wonder if you can get access to all of them all at once. That would be truly insane. The same logic applies to sensory fields. There cannot exist a sensory field that intersects and is independent of yours at the same time. So you have different sensory fields, e.g., auditory. There is the potential for other kinds of sensory fields to exist, and all of them would be private to you. By the way, I only watched a very small portion of the beginning of that video a long time ago, because it was way too foreign a thing to understand.

@Leo Gura, it just dawned on me why you say "private hallucination". The sentience of others is a hallucination inside my experience because there cannot be an experience existing independently of my experience and yet intersecting my experience. So, true independent experience would never intersect with mine, making my experience private hallucination and those true independent experiences potential hallucinations. My private hallucination could not have existed if there weren't infinite kinds of potential true independent hallucinations. It's the same with sensory fields. Each of my sensory fields is proof that there are infinite kinds of sensory fields that have the potential to exist, but they are not actual as of yet. Because if there were not infinite kinds of sensory fields to exist, the sensory fields that currently exist would have never existed in the first place. Am I right that the infinite kinds of potential true independent hallucinations point to the infinity of Gods or alien awakening that you have mentioned?

If the sentience of humans or animals is a hallucination from each of our points of view, I don't see why that would stop a form from being organized in a way that it would have sentience. If I mess up the structural organization of a sentient form, it can cease to have sentience, e.g., killing an animal. So, the structural organization of forms would be a deeper layer of hallucination that grants forms to have sentience. But the "how" would be the most difficult part.

Thanks for the support. When I was a child, it dawned on me—through a lot of suffering—that understanding is much more fundamental than what people were doing; it is an interaction with the world through observation that reveals the intelligence of reality. Gaining understanding on my own for the sake of understanding is a greater joy for me than just knowing, or especially just believing, something. Without you, I would not have known how important truth is and would have remained in a state of stagnancy. But I don't claim that I have become someone who is conscious of a lot of truth or a master of truth.

What movie have you recently watched, or are you now watching? I have yet to finish watching the movie "The Irishmen".

It seems that the more I deconstruct my ordinary experience the more I would grasp the degree of its hallucinatory or dream-like nature, not only just that it's a hallucination or dream. Years back I would have never imagined this being a dream. The directness of it is like looking directly at the sun and being totally alone. Understanding it changes the quality of my experience. E.g., I look at my body and recognize that it is being dreamt. I'm more open towards my death because who else is going to experience stuff other than me?

One time I had a radical experience that everything was revealed as a hallucination or the other time it's a dream. When coming back from those experiences, they become treated as other. But deconstructing my ordinary experience helps reveal its nature. E.g., no dream exists outside of the dream in my sleep, and no experience exists outside of my own in my waking life. This makes waking life and the dreams when sleeping equal in terms of existing. But using the term "dream" is more appropriate to describe both realities because it is thought of as being self-contained, even if we think that it happens in our brains.

For me, a "hallucination" is totally lacking external or internal influence. Nothing outside or inside is generating it. It is self-generated. Which totally applies to my experience.

Ok, but what makes a hallucination a hallucination for you? Do you follow the technical definition of it? There has to be some meaning you give to the word "hallucination" so that you can apply it.

@Leo Gura, what's your definition of "hallucination"?

It seems like the rest of the chemicals add up to the potency of the venom.

Oh, I totally ignored that part. I wonder if it's less potent than the pure one. I wanted to go to a psychedelic retreat for my first psychedelic experience. I'm glad I found a cheaper option.

OMG, that shaman was giving at least 90mg of 5-MeO-DMT. That's crazy!

My tactile sensations were overwhelming on 5-MeO-DMT. I haven't dosed higher than 20mg if I recall, but I imagine it would be more violent. The onset of 5-MeO-DMT is difficult to manage. THC was like a light switch, immediately experiencing God.

Jesus! I fucking had a mini-shock of how I would feel experiencing God just by watching that man.

Wait until you live in an almost entirely ethnically homogeneous country with a national identity depending on religious identity and a state religion, especially a Christian one. Your mind will get raped there if your not careful. You wouldn't want anything to do with most people. If they found out you aren't Christian, they would feel betrayed and think you no longer belong to the nation. Basically, a large cult.

The protective mechanisms of the dream are very intelligent, like the script of a great movie that makes you so enmeshed in it that you don't want it to end.

Prometheus wasn't sinister enough. It was sterile.

I wonder what the experience is like on them.

I guess I can make myself watch it to better understand how they trick themselves and how that applies to me. But it's still cringe to see people debate about him as if understanding who he was is very important to our lives and if we don't get it, we are missing something. Imagine intellectuals debate about who you were, more than talk about your teachings, after a few centuries. I'm not against kinks, but Christians have taken it to the next level.

Watching people debating about Jesus is like watching kids fighting over a candy. Cringe! I'm very hesitant to watch the full debate. These people love Jesus more than their spouse. 😂

@Leo Gura, nice share about the Gospel. I didn't know about it.

Construction that lacks sufficient intelligence to make people recognize its own constructed nature, which is why it gets hijacked by the ego. The ego is more intelligent than religion. Religious people are bunch of egos underestimating the power of their own need to survive. They don't understand that their ego is also a construction of a deeper kind.

The confusion comes from not deconstructing or getting a deeper grasp of your ordinary state of experience. Some of you hold a bunch of assumptions about your ordinary state and use higher states of experience to justify your assumptions, and then those assumptions structure the way you think about the higher states.

A world existing outside of your experience is a category mistake! Let's assume that there is an outside world. If you say that there is a thing that exists outside of your experience, it would immediately belong to some experiential category (e.g., visual, auditory, etc.) when you experience it. But how would you know that they exist? Because they become self-evident! Experience is self-evident, which means that the outside experience as a category doesn't exist. This doesn't mean you won't have different experiences, which points to a deeper aspect of your experience—that your experience is infinite. The infinite nature of experience is what creates the illusion of an outside! If you don't understand this and say it's wrong, you just believe you have a deeper understanding of experience than you do.
