A dream character is a thought form, a thought form can have thoughts of it's own if it' imagined to be an individual.

While I've never smoked Salvia personally, nor even chewed a hallucinogenic quantity. I've studied this very subject at least a decent amount. And what I can gather from reading trip reports is that it isn't the breakthrough experiences where you become a coat of paint on a barn and exist in that state for 30 earth years, or even where you become an alien humanoid and live that life for years that's a mindfuck. It's when you become a different human being, in another state in your own country from the same century and ostensibly in the same reality from which you came. And everything works there exactly the same as you'd expect "reality" to, and you live years like that, then eventually return to your original human self to find that from the perspective of others around you, you were tripping for 20 minutes, even though you know you just spent a considerable period of time (like a decade) in the same reality they're in but as a different person elsewhere. Now that's a genuine mindfuck, because it's nearly impossible to explain it away as insanity, even for the strongest of materialists (if they have that specific experience themself which very few have).

How do you know that you're not merely a dream character?

The degree to which most humans can do this on the level you're thinking of is negligible. Human entities around you often have intuitions about what you're thinking, but most of the time they find ways to convince themselves that they aren't doing telepathy or anything paranormal. Typically, men suffer from this even Moreso than women. If you want a simple way to start to stop doing this kind of thing yourself, a good thing to bear in mind is situations where you start thinking something that's totally unrelated to anything you were previously thinking about, and that doesn't make any sense to you that you'd think it. When this sort of thing occurs and you're in the presence of another person, it's often because that stream of thoughts was cued by a telepathic impression from the other human. When you realize that it only makes sense that what you're thinking is actually what the other person is thinking and not having originated in your own mind, then you're almost certainly right. If you want a way to totally read a person's mind straight up like you'd imagine Star Trek Vulcans could do. You're probably best ingesting some harmala alkaloids (obviously you'll want to follow a MAOI avoidant diet at least 48 hours prior and after) and then attempting to do so. There are other methods that work, but this one doesn't require any discipline and minimal prior study, which probably can't be said of the Sadhanas, and Tantric implements designed for telepathy you can read about.

Tate was popular because there's a growing contingent of individuals in western society who feel disenchanted with the emasculation of men occurring here. Tate was trying to promote masculinity and traditional values, so they thought he was doing something good. For a while, even I was starting to think he might somehow be a positive influence. But when I found countless instances of Tate incriminating himself, literally bragging about committing various crimes publicly. I swiftly became disillusioned with him, and now I realize that he's a complete and utter fool. He'll be lucky not to spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Well, your spacetime continuum illusion is trinitarian by its very nature. Things tend to look better in 3's. If you begin looking for it, you can find trinitarian systems everywhere in your life. Eg, the family = Father+Mother=Son(s) and/or Daughters(s), which could be viewed as parallel to the Father and the Holy Spirit having God the Son as offspring. Not to mention the trinity within a trinity occurring here where you have God as the Holy Spirit impregnating a mortal woman to bring forth God the Son. The human body consists of a mind, body, and spirit that are one and the same thing etc.

Yeah, awakening is a completely nonlinear process. And it isn't even the same process for different individuals, or the same for the same individual at different times. The bottom line is that you've taken something that's like a hyperdimensional shapeshifting alien being and trying to cram it into a 3-dimensional box.

Why we Americans like to stick our noses in other people's business could be the subject of a novel. I find this to be a rather silly discussion because in most of the world it's obviously impossible to impose regulations on premarital sex.

Yo, me and the boys be listening to this banger before getting drafted into Intergalactic War XIII https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bzWSJG93P8&ab_channel=L

@LoneWonderer The short answer is it can be done; all you have to do is turn yourself into a different person. If you want the longer answer, a good place to start would be the first post I ever made on this forum. Though bear in mind, that I'm not just talking about some analytical metric. I'm literally talking about straight up becoming someone else. https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/70806-accidental-ego-replacement-a-doorway-to-the-occult-and-god/

The only fault in this, is the assumption that sexual repression is somehow inherently evil. Certainly, there is some deleterious impact with such a thing. It's however equally certain that there are benefits which arise from the same. What? You're thinking there's going to be some kind of secret place people go to fuck or something? lol. People who want to have sex with one another will just do it anyway. I fail to see how that's a bad thing, or what point you're even trying to make with this.

https://www.webmd.com/sex-relationships/news/20101227/theres-benefits-in-delaying-sex-until-marriage https://news.byu.edu/news/good-things-come-couples-who-wait#:~:text=A%20statistical%20analysis%20showed%20the%20following%20benefits%20enjoyed,-%20Relationship%20satisfaction%20was%20rated%2020%20percent%20higher Has it not occurred to that might be part of why premarital sexual relationships seem to be less salubrious? If I take wine from the same bottle into two glasses. And tell people that one came from a bottle costing $1000, and the other came from the bottle costing $20, there will be a greater dopaminergic response to the supposedly more expensive wine in the same subject. The point is the greater pleasure is real irrespective of how that pleasure sausage was made. Therefore, I find that you're making the opposite point better than the position you intend to defend/promote. Well, the bias isn't so much a problem. Provided the biases of the researchers is toward truth and objective empiricism. Also, everyone is always biased in some capacity. Naturally, another dimension to bias would be in moral philosophy. But that isn't so much a problem, as it would likely be best to do what's most beneficial for the majority of people. Also, by conducting studies in multiple verticals so as to cover as many bases as possible the generality doesn't present much of a problem. This has already been done at least to some extent.

Relationship satisfaction, sexual quality, and communication have all been rated higher in such couples as opposed to those who didn't wait. To chalk all of that up to correlation would be illogical. That such religious cultural pressures can and do cause suffering in some situations for some individuals is certain. What's relevant is the result of cost benefit analysis to figure out whether the downside outweigh the benefits or vice versa. Sure, here in the US it works that way. But Indonesia is not America, the people there speak a very different language and fundamentally look on reality with a completely different set of eyes than you and I. And who is to say which set of social mores is the correct one?

Studies show that couples who wait until marriage to lose their virginity tend to remain married longer. Which obviously indicates that such couples are likely to have a better relationship. Which makes them better more loving parents, which of course makes for a stronger society as a whole. But as Americans, we don't like the government telling us what to do. So, when we hear about something like this it seems backwards and overly draconian.

Well said, foreign countries in general have a tendency not to conform to the expectations of Americans. Especially the ones that don't speak English. English speaking countries like the Canada and England are so similar to us culturally that you usually won't be too surprised by it. Of course, there can even be room for faux pawing and awkwardness in exchanges between for instance between Brits and Americans.

In the overwhelming majority of the world, these kind of strong blue type values are normal. Hell, even in my country we have states where anal sex is banned. The fact we have so little awareness of the collective human species ethics and values demonstrates how disconnected Americans are with the rest of the world.

To clarify, you mean to say that what these people are saying originates in the Emerald Tablets of Thoth. And as such, you could save yourself some time by going straight to the source? It may be rare, but there can be entities that derive pleasure from any gain.

I find that humans can do anything form of magick successfully, if they try hard enough.

Bet you never knew the interior of a snake could be so complex.

Interesting, have you considered healing yourself in the trip instead of trying to "let go"? Well, for him it's more powerful than LSD. It takes him straight to the Godhead, what he was before he became any individuated being. With that being said, LSD itself is incredibly powerful anyway. If I were you, I'd just keep on doing the acid and try to fix myself while under the influence.

This is like 40% of the reason why humans don't experience these things normally.

Unless you've got bad acid or you're somehow unresponsive. I'm not sure it's such a good idea for you to be attempting to potentiate LSD. It should be plenty powerful just as it is. Exactly how much acid have you done?

If all you want to do is make the trip last longer, I'd recommend a higher dose. There are people that have tripped for weeks on high acid doses. Well, if you want to try and ground yourself in a higher state of consciousness and spend all of your time working at a level of development beyond anything ordinarily possible by the human mind. Then it makes sense. Obviously, that isn't for the overwhelming majority of people as it's somewhat incredibly dangerous or is at least perceived as such.

Really? All the marketing hype says exactly the opposite. I mean, it's probably all bullshit. That's fairly obvious from the nature of claims they make like it being hundreds of times more powerful than piracetam. I frankly know very little about these nootropic chemicals. They don't seem to have the kind of effect I'd be want, so I haven't spent too much time studying them.

Sounds like something from the Monroe Institute.
