99.9% of people wouldn't think that through and so far ahead, especially in such a young age. That's one of the reasons he reacted that way. Back to the Freaks of Nature thread with you ๐

If it's the big city in the Main area than there is a lot of good opportunity to do pick up and also in the major cities with universities around it. Berlin is has also great opportunities.

@Leo Gura I think one of the differences between Portugual and Portland is that Portugual is a very small country with a its own language and therefore it is not as easy for the homeless across europe to come there as it is in the US. Those people could also get deported back to their countries of origine if they break the law. There is also a cultural problem. The people in the US are often more like "everybody is on his own" and as scholar has said there are no structures in place to deal with the sickness and trauma of the drug addicts as in most European countries. For people from Europe that is obvious. In Portugual if addicts get caught they lose their drugs and have to visit a rehab strict program and get supported by a wide net. This net is also very well interwoven across society. Take for example health insurance, which covers basic services. The people can go to a doctor or rehab clinic or call an ambulance and it is paid by their insurance which prevents in many cases that people fall that low. Also in most European countries the people expact that the goverment protects and help those people, even though over the last years we got so much libertarian shit (a lot from the US) via social media. On the other hand I have to say that the bigger the country the harder it is to scale it up and accumulate the resources. We should also consider that those rehab programs do not always work, and most often not, if one is already really really deep down the heroin hole. Like Portland in countries are also cities which serve as hubs where it is easier to access certain drug leading to people to flock to. The city where I live in has huge air port and is known for as one of the biggest transshipment points for cocain (crack) in europe making it relative cheaper so that addicts across a big chunk of the country come to and live on the streets, overwhelming the system. But here are also other factors at play like the city has one of the biggest legal red light districts in europe which attracts scatchy and broken people and unlawful behaviour. What's remarkable is that we have two sites here where consuming is tolerated and drug addicts can get clean syringes and needles and have the possibility to consume their drugs there safely and spent some time leading to a reduction of the risk of overdoses and death reducing the number of drug deaths from 150 to 35. In my opinion we shouldn't legalize hard drugs and lsd because people are too foolish to handle them properly. I think we here and some of my friends live in a bubble of relative responsibility and maturity (sometimes not even that) but most people aren't like that and subtracting from their health by using them improperly. I also know plenty people using weed avoiding adressing their problems so that they slowly fester.

@Leo Gura I've come so far to think that it depends on how you want to construct it. For example you could decide that you make it dependent on features like having breasts, a soft face, female curves or lots of facial hair, broad shoulders and big of muscles. One also could asign a totally new category or just decide that you're either male or female. It'd be hard to refer to your dna for a decision because our normal categories are not nuanced enough. I've noticed that by thinking about it these constructs easily break apart and the boundaries in between start to blurr. However we could say that there are certain traits that make you musculine or feminine which help to create the concept of male and female. You could also make up your own label, although the relativity of it makes it harder to have people agreeing on it, especially because of each world view and survival agenda. If this wasn't the point, could you give a hint at what lies deeper?

@Leo GuraI have a question about your blog post about buddhism. The last few buddhist posts of acomplished meditators who don't realize that they imagine their experiences and attainments are theravada buddhists who have a underlying materialistic assumption and are just interested in the ending of suffering. I was deeply into theravada buddhism and like how grounded the people are but I noticed that they are constructing a materalistic lens through description of dependent origination and their analytical process in general and often don't know that they are doing so and they are often unable to change the lens to see things through another school pov. What I also noticed is that thinking is highly discouraged as distraction and because there is a chain where one should believe what more accomplished persons have to say. Another thing is the disagreement what and who enlightened, especially in other forms of spirituality. But what about tibetan mahayana buddhism? My knowledge of their sect isn't too deep however they talk about the Self and have a closer relationship to the indian culture. I also know that they have a more idialistic hybrid stance. How would you evalue them?

It is strange but I had the symptoms how you describe it and for me it was a beautiful experience of coming into contact to the present moment. Maybe it helps to see that you are constructing the negative perspective and interpretation. Maybe you can resolve this issue. However, if that is too scary and you're too unstable ignore this post. When I became conscious of these facts stated by you I felt like the mind and God is the ultimate trickster trying to fool me into different perspectives and interpretations and so I developed a playful attitude. I wish you to get well soon and the very best! ๐ -
There are limits of how much radiation a crew of a space ship is allowed to be exposed to in outer space in the span of their careers. One flight to mars and back would expose a crew of so much radiation that they couldn't do another trip to gain more experience let alone stay there a long time without major brake throughs in radiation shielding. There is also the problem of no gravity during the long trips and the low gravity on mars. There are solutions theoretically but actually ingeneering them would be a huge waste of resources and time as is the whole idea to begin with.

@Leo Gura I think people here lack knowledge of the history of christianity and don't consider how it misleads the bulk of people and some of them really don't seem to think or are too biased to think clearly. I don't think there is an easy fix for that but growth for those who want to. I t's obvious that everybody is pissed off as soon as ones favorite fantasies or world view are threatened and one has to be thouroughly. I appreciate you engaging with people and trying to help them even though it's similiar structural problems. Know that there are onlookers not necessarily engaged in the thread learning deeply from those conversations and understand a lot of what what you mean and how all these aspects of the teaching play into each other. I'm still a beginner but slowly t bears some fruits. -
@Hojo I've found this wikipedia article about the book "Too Much and Never Enough" which explains a lot of Donald Trump's behavior and the sick family dynamics he grew up in. Since some people here still seem to be uninformed I share this resource. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Too_Much_and_Never_Enough

Thank you for your clarification. -

@Leo Gura I have a question. It seems to me that equalizing everthing to death which is created by the assumption that all people are equal leads to equating that you would include disabled and poor people which distorts your argument. Is this the case? -
Antipsychotics are known to weaken or even kill the trip completely and you probably won't get into the deep psychedelic mind state you need for contemplation. From an experiencal level antipsychotics work by decreasing your consciousness by design so that they block out a big part of your psyche. You can even become conscious that this is the case If you grow your consciousness but then it will be annoying. In your stead I would consider if there's good reason why this is done and it could be dangerous and irresponsibleto to reverse this accidentally through psychedelics and be confronted by this. If I were you I would first start to uncover this baggage step by step and empty the cup before doing psychedelics. I wish you the very best and good luck.

I wanted to share this video after watching some others from leos blog post and it seemed to fit to the subject as resource. Now I understand what he meant by how staggering and bleak the level of corruption is after you found out. -
When I snort dpt I get from 65 mg a solid lsd like trip which lasts about 3-4 hours.
-
Get yourself harmine freebase and weight out 200mg as maoi and drink it with judt a little bit of juice and after 45min the same with the dmt. I would start with 90 mg and then if its just like a shroom trip do 120. Thats where I'm at. Dmt is really good for a dark room trip and the peak also only lasts about 3 hours. Have some music and some space to turn and stretch around. If you are inclined to see entities It might be if you go into the trip with the intention of cleansing your karma/energy that an entity appears via hyperspace that will just do that and you will do some movements and noises. Although I have only done normal and some high doses on mushrooms I find dmt more serious as there are beings there who are mostly benevolent but some get offended and if you met one of them again after another trip with other trips in between it will remember and you will too. It also feels different from other psychedelics and you might have at the lower level of standard dose the level of tripping like on 400mcg lsd so take precautions if you skip directly into deeper waters. Smoking dmt is a different matter as it is far more safe due it short livedness and if you break through you will be somewhere different entirely or only slightly connected to your body. But you need some pipe to smoke it and the fire is risky. You can smoke it as changa or vape it via a jet lighter a piece of thouroughly burned metal scrubber and a small bong. The disadvantage is the shorter it lasts the less tine there is fore serious insight.

@Leo Gura yes, it is very helpful for my contemplation practice and sometimes during consciounes work some of your ideas start to click. I think it also helps ,as the rest of your work, creating a balanced realist pov in contrast to my hippi dippi friends and conservative family and helps to create deeper understanding in those areas. So thank you for your work and free help. I really appreciate it ๐

@Leo GuraI think you should have rephrased it into something like beauty serves survival value so that the more beautiful women get treated way better than "not so good looking women" on average and thus have more opportunity and surival advantage and that it runs as much as through ones personal mind through the general cultural consciousness so that the denial and handweaving is already part of it to mask the sheer starkness of survival. However, I think you might have had this angle already in another thread. Edit: I think it's interesting how this might be seen from the perspective on how looks, conduct, clothes and status symbols in general help people to put other people into boxes so that they know how to behave in their presence because how important it is to know if you're dealing with a homeless person, acute mentally ill person, a hippy, a police officer or other kind.

@Leo Gura I know the situation only superficially but I'd be careful talking to Mrgirl. As far as I know from his content he's behaved quite unhinged and too provocative so that he got banned from almost all platforms and even only fans and he has a bad reputation. I don't think he'd behave that way towards people he's interviewing, however, if you talk to him, other people with a more mainstream audiance will be even less likely to talk to you. But on the other hand most mainstream streamer won't talk to you anyway.

I actually know a person who I thought of as crazy and who later became very good friend. This is how it in the real world plays out. When I first met him at a stage green cultural platform where people can meet have some parties and workshops. I first saw him during a presentation of sustainability seal he was sitting a few feet away at the doors on the ground giggling and smoking one joint after another staring from time to time with deep gaze around not really interested in the presentation and just chilling even laughing at us. I knew something was off and I felt a bit threatened because he seemed really spontaneous and I couldn't fit him in a box. After the presentation where there was some chill time with nice music, I sat next to him with another acquainted person who was trying to pick up a girl. So I and this guy started talking and he was just talking about food robbing energy and other giving energy and dead meat making bad thoughts but he talked it in a way that it sounded way more crazy and people around us were just looking strangely at us from time to time. Then I smoked a few puffs of his joint and got a really deep awakening and I realized that this person is almost always present and we talked of such deep matters and I was able to translate his strange phrasing into spiritual mumbojumbo in order to understand it. We talked about such deep things and it became clear to me that he raised me to his level and he must have been born this way and never studied spirituality in a scholarly manner so he uses his own freakish phrasing. Since then we have hung out from time to time and partied a lot and he is way more andvanced than almost all the meditators I've known and I've seen a lot he lives a simple but high quality life style and is one oft the most realistically ethical persons I know of without the virtual signaling like other spiritual persons and he is soo freaking present that when he dances and moves he makes so many impossible micromovements and so quick that people standing around looking how tf it is possible. So this is obvious if you have the consciousness to distinguish between a high conscious person not feeling bound by social standards behaving sometimes like a fool and a mentally ill person. The take away is that he isn't bound to behaving like a fool or a normal person.

The picture doesn't depict the form of the earth. It's a picture of the earths differences of gravity. If you would take all the differences of altitudes on earth it would still be smoother than the finest pollished ball on earth. However it isn't a perfect ball due to its rotation so it becomes flatter at the poles.

@Leo GuraTwo people I know described to me that in their unique cases they their minds became extremely focused on the moment before their psychotic breaks and then their mind fell into extremely dangerous delusions. From their descriptions it sounded like higher states and the delusions as reaction from trauma to it, like a switch and you are absorbed by thoughts.But it depends on the causes and by no means does that mean that every case is like that and the concept of it lumps a lot in one pot together and it can get far more weirder. -
Starlight321 replied to bmcnicho's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
This is only one aspekt of it but I think orange using green memes is part of it but also people are almost never on one solid stage and only parts of their personality is at stage green and it is likely to revert backwards during a crisis be it an inner or from the outside. Also people are less developed than they appear on the surface. It appears to be the case that many people below solid green ore even then some of them critisize the system as long as it benefits them and if its benefits them more to use the capitalist machinery in order to maximize survival they tend to switch sides. It's like during the revolution of carist russia where they toppled the old corrupt regime just to replace it with a similiar structure according to their developement. So I would say that bernie's ideas were too advanced and dangerous for the middle and the power structures. Here in germany for example we have a coalition of liberal left and green and right now our economy sucks and stage green tries to introduce ecological measures which make living more expensive and people with little money and the middle class notice it the most and that's one reason (but not the only one) for the unpopularity of such thing. At the same time the right side of the specrum does a good job fear mongering and jeopardizing our economy in order to sabotage the administration. -

@roycei've researched and the maps of these channel are one of the most accurate ones you can get but still taken with a grain of salt. However you and everybody else be aware that alone listening to the phrasing of the report warps your thinking about the matter over time. It brain washes you with russian bias and propaganda. I haven't followed the whole thread but I felt obligated to this reminder here for everyone. -
DMT is a really nice chemical. I would slowly up your dose from 7 to 14 to 21 and 28 to 35 or even stay at a spot for a certain time. I would recommend to get nice healing vibration from youtube because when you get to medium or even lower doses your body might take over and moves to feeling better and releases all those accumulated tensions which is a great thing. Even enteties might appear and you can let them speak trough your thoughts if you let them. I would also consider them as manifestation of you higher mind or higher principles. I personally haven't broken through yet but even those sub break through doses can give you good input. I tried oral dmt but my dose was too low so smoked it in a bong with tabacco and it worked well. I would recommend to be cautiuos because the smell is really really strong and your neighbors might notice it.
