Arthogaan

1. It is nothing wrong to not have a need to meet new people if you are trully introverted. Don't compare yourself to others and conclude that you should be more sociable because that is the norm. 2. But, there is a high chance that you actually want to and have such need. Then you should really investigate whether your avoidance actually is not caused by sub-consciouss fear of being judged, fear of not being good enough/fun enough to meet great people and so on. Because in most of these cases it is a problem of self-worth.

I think that was a joke.

1. Create some small ritual for yourself. Whether it is cleaning up the flat and letting some fresh air in or something more fancy like some incense. 2. Write down an intention before tripping. Even if it is as simple as "surrendering to whatever comes". 3. Meditate even for just 10 minutes before tripping. All first 3 points make the setting much more comfortable. They provide that you feel that you actually took care of the situation. That it is something sacred. 4. You don't have to do it in the evening/afternoon. Especially for long-lasting ones. You can totally wake up at 6 and start a trip at 7. Then you can fall asleep at normal hour and feel much better the next day. 5. Write down your insights! Describe them during a trip like you would write to a child, because in few hours your consciousness, your ability to connect dots will be much smaller, and the things that were obvious will not be obvious. Explain the beauty of life to your future self. 6. Do not tell about it to people that you are not sure should know. 7. Eat healthy and exercise. Your body has to be a well-oiled machined in order to withstand those higher vibrations.

And at stages above green I think developed individual is both highly masculine and highly feminine.

1. Because muscular physique and combat skills has nothing to do with being a true leader. 2. And even if it would no any particular feature is enough on it's own.

Then it would be mine star sign.

When you have a nightly dream when you sleep, you can realize that it is a dream. It does not matter what technique you will use inside the dream, your dream character can meditate for x years or can take a psychedelic inside the dream, and then the dream character realizes that it is a dream. So he AWAKENS, and the dream becomes lucid. But then the awakened character can fall back into the dream and he can still experience fear and suffering, and he can be mean to others in a dream. So this analogy clearly shows that you can Awaken and then still have sufferings and meanness. Abiding in awakening is far different than direct realization that the dream is the dream dreamed by you.

Yes. But Mary if she meditates a lot inside the dream and takes psychedelic inside the dream she can expande her small personal mind so much that it becomes the Dream-Generating Dream, she can realize that here limited mind is a facade but when she gets rid of personal ego and expands her consciousness via meditation and psychedelics she can realize the nature of a dream, that it is totally imagined by her. She can grasp how all the possibilities possible are within her Grand Mind (not her personal mind) as a potential, and that out of this Nothingness/Grand Mind everything is generated. Yes, all the experiences and all the coffee tables inside the dream of Mary are just imaginations/figments of her Mind. And she can realize that all the potentials that can be generated by her Mind is the Ultimate Reality. Yes, all the concoctions of personal mind of Mary are illusions, but her realized Grand Mind that is generating a dream is The Ultimate Reality. Yes, Mary can train herself via meditation and psychedelics inside the dream so that she sees at all time that this is a dream generated by her Mind, at which point she is Awakened and the dream becomes a lucid dream. But all of the above do not contradict Absolute Solipsism, and only make it even more probable/elegant. Leo's claim is not that there is nothing outside Mary's personal mind inside the dream. The claim is that when Mary becomes lucid during her dream, she knows for sure that her Grand Mind is the only Mind there is. That there is no other Mind generating this dream other than her own.

Hi my brothers and sisters Lately after my deepening of experiental Absolute Solipsism and some first 5-meo trips: - initially I was left without any fear of death, because I realized that I am eternal and will move on forever as Consciousness, - but then after some really uncomfortable 5meo trips I started to actually be anxious about death. Like it really started to become obvious that I will not die, but my consciousness will expand brutally. That maybe it will be as insane as 5-meo trip and that I will be catapulted so fast into infinity that I will not know what is happening and that I will become Insane. Insane Infinite Consciousness lost in it's Infinite Imagination. It left me really anxious. But then I contemplated about it on LSD and I came to the conclusion that: 1.God Is Me. 2.I know I am a really good person deep down. 3. Therefore God must be good and gentle much as I am and that he surely designed process of death to be loving, and gradual, understanding and much less rapid than 5Meo trip. That in a way God designed this reality in a way that we can have access to Infinite Realms of Consciousness through psychedelics, but the normal process of death is designed to be less radical, less traumatizing, and that there will be some form of life review, you know- light tunel, and choosing next incarnation that is much more extravagant and more abundant in high consciousness vibrations, but not so out there like 5meo trip. But then maybe I am fooling myself because I fear insanity. What do you think? Is the process of death and choosing the next dream more peacefull and gradual than an intense 5meo trip? @Leo Gura @Inliytened1 @justfortoday @Breakingthewall @Moksha @Jowblob @OBEler @JuliusCaesar @Michal__

Yes, I agree, but all of that is still happening inside The Mind. Inside Direct Experience.

Okay I understand, thanks for clarifying. The issue is that lets say again that Lucy goes to sleep at night and has a dream that she is Mary. Now Mary inside the dream realizes that it is a only a nightly dream and that she creates this dream landscape in a dream with her mind. Inside the dream she meets @ardacigin and he says to her that "there is other reality, Ultimate Reality beyond this dream, the world of Lucy". But inside the dream when Mary realizes that she is Lucy and that there is a normal reality when she would wake up that is A BELIEF. That is not a direct experience. The direct experience of Mary is that this nightly dream is all there is and that currently no normal reality is "waiting for her" until she wakes up. I understand what you are saying, and I still am not sure of those insights because I need more 5meo deep trips, but if I were to steelman a Leo's position, I would say that when I sleep at night, the landscape that I generate is all there is and that for some time, this normal reality is not existing. And I don't see how you can escape that. The sovereignty of you direct experience is inescapable. Even when you have an intuitive insight/experience of this Ultimate Reality, that is still inside your mind. You can not have any experience or insight that is outside of your mind. The Nothingness is The Mind that everything is generated inside.

Why? What is your argument for that claim and if you could reference that argument to the context of my dream analogy?

Okay I understand. Thanks for clarifying. Just because the logic behind those decisions (of God and you) is similar does not mean that they are both justified the same. By your logic you could say that there never is a greater good, which is false. We as society may want to imprison murderers, so that the greater good of our safety and freedom is provided. By your logic you could say "How is imprisoning anybody good?! If I decided to imprison your family because I believe that would make a world a better place does it make it good?!" That makes no sense. And that shows the problem, we are humans and we are biased. Some people may think that imprisoning a murderer is a good thing, and some other may believe that it is not. But God is one, therefore he is the only one that is unbiased. He does not have his own agenda, because he is ALL. His agenda is to make it the most perfect reality possible for himself, and himself means for all. Also just think about it, how would you create a body without pain. It is impossible. Every night in your nightly dreams you do the same thing, you create pain and fear in your dreams so that you can have an experience. Are you evil because you ever had a fearfull dream or a nightmare? No, that was necesarry to create the dream reality. Bitching about existence of pain and suffering is like saying, that if everything is not only pleasure and extasy then there should be no world at all. There should be no experiencing. That is the evil thing to say. Reality is perfect.

I don't see how that is a good analogy to what I said. It seems to me that you yourself see that killing miserable and opportunistic people so that only happiness is left is evil. So that is also why God allows it. You can try to explain the analogy better to me.

1. There is A LOT OF Happiness. Go to any park and there is blisfull kids running around, dogs breathing with exctatic smile just for the fact of existing and being able to breathe. Yes there is a lot of hunger in Africa but imagine hom many people are falling in love in this very second, how many people have sex right now, how many delicious meals are eaten right this moment. Hom many trees are exctatic with oxygen and sun that is shining on them. Negativity is much easier to see, because we are wired to perceive it more, to make our chances of survival bigger. And even in Africa in areas with hunger, there is still much love and much happiness. 2. God is good. If he could construct reality with less pain, he would. But it is not possible. In order to create biological machines made of flesh, he had to invent pain and hunger, because otherwise we would be dead after 1 hour of walking because of stupidity. We would forget to eat and we would die out of malnutrition after 1 month. Also God had to create us naturally selfish a little. Because then we would just give our meals out, and die again. So each component of suffering is actually good. It was designed for greater good, but we are unable to see that because we are biased by our own survival.

You are too immature to grasp the fact that everyone has different values and goals in life. Everyone can enjoy what they want to enjoy.

Oh okay, you were talking all this time from the paradigm of material world existing? Then I don't think we can really engage. I am asking from the paradigm of entire universse disaappearing during "death" and new reality being imagined without the loss of Consciousness.

And that answer I can appreciate. It engages with the question. Thanks. Or maybe some people know. Maybe some radical 5meo experiences show what is probable to happen. Or I know we have a user @justfortoday that had near death experience, I am stoked to get his perspective. We can never know for sure I agree. But maybe there can be some insight into the nature of this. That is why I am asking. It seems to me, that if Eternity is by definition infinite, and this body, this incarnation is finite in nature, then at some point, even if I am to live for 2 million years, then it seems intuitive that the Absolute will want to move onto the next form eventually. Don't you agree? That it seems nonsensical for the Absolute to dwell in Someone here's body FOREVER?

@Someone here Do you think the body that your Consciousness is now in, will last forever?

Actually, even when I close them it would still be imagination. Do you go to the psychedelic subforum and when someone asks "what happens when I take DMT" you answer very cleverly "well actually taking DMT does not exist, you are imagining taking DMT". Wow dude, very helpful. That is not the question. Do you really think that Leo claiming "Death is imaginary " means that your Consciousness will be forever in this body of yours? Don't you think that after some point your consciousness will move on from this body? Don't you think that very interesting phenomena will be right in front of your eyes when it happens? Please again, more humbleness my dude, you seem like you do not even think critically about the question and you just jump ahead to clever sentences parroting Leo "DEATH IS IMAGINARY" so that you could feel wise. No ill feelings bro but it really seems to my that you do that kind of thing often. Obviously in a standard meaning of the word "DEATH" - meaning that our consciousness ceases to be, that our visual field goes blank, and nothing happens yes- that is not gonna happen and we are imagining that. But that very insight means that there will be something else happening, that if our consciousness does not go blank, then it means we will have something else happening in our visual field. And the question is obviously about that process. And when we call death that process, of consciousness starting to imagine some next dream landscape, then death exists.

Thanks, I have similiar thoughts.

Okay dude. The fact that I am imagining everything doesn't mean I can not ask the questions about what happens inside imagination. I could ask "what happens when I close my eyes". You are so dense you would reply "Closing your eyes does not exist! You are imagining closing your eyes!". Yeah, no shit, thats what question is about.

That is literally what this post is about, that death is not real, and that the experience goes on. The question is about what is happening to my visual field when this body ceases to function. This body will not live for eternity.

I know all that. I am asking about what will be happening in my visual field (me as God/Consciousness) after Arthogaan's body dies.
