This right here might be your issue. Normally? What is normal? What everyone else is doing? I tried this for a long time and have failed, time and time again. Psychedelics helped me uncover my authentic self, and I’m still recovering from decades of upbringing that were just wrong for me.

It all makes sense now…

I hallucinated a bunch of black tribal folks hanging out in a rainforest during a psychedelic trip. They were super friendly and taught me to respect nature!

A little bit of weed takes me to radical states of consciousness, yet I know of people who take a shit ton more weed than me and don’t experience a fraction of what I experience. Substances do indeed affect people differently.

Mooji got me thru difficult times after I left religion and then my family. Then psychedelics became my guru

Just start with small things. I’m at a concert just observing people acting like idiots. Makes the experience less painful

I totally agree with this. But in all seriousness, thank you for opening up about how you really feel. However, I will not tolerate your assumptions. The assumption here is that I don’t like you, which is false. In fact, I empathize with you given the fact that I myself am going through extremely complex and difficult relationship issues. I’ve told people I trust about my relationships, and instead of supporting me, I’ve been gaslit by them over and over again based on their own insecurities. Don’t take other peoples’ opinion or advice too personally. The moment you do that is the moment you fall back into fear and doubt, and the learning process get stunted. I don’t care if it’s coming from Leo, a professional therapist, a doctor, or even your significant other. Learn to take the advice that’s applicable, and toss out the crap that doesn’t sit well with you. But also, cut out your own bullshit.

Focus on awakening yourself, and the rest will follow. Others will see you as crazy and will try to bring you back to rationality, but you simply stay grounded in your own truth and take the advice they give you with a grain of salt.

@jdc7733 “Bad things will happen” are narratives that you’re spinning in your fantasies without ever challenging them. That requires getting out of your comfort zone. Are you willing to accept this challenge?

You’re looking for Reality to be a certain way, and I’m not going to give into your fantasy. Nor will anyone else.

If you cannot see that Pain = Love, then contemplate. Let’s keep contemplating.

@jdc7733 My therapist once taught me that there are no rules surrounding feelings. It’s a radical lesson if you’re open to contemplating the significance of what that is pointing to.

@Sir Oberon Kind of reminds me of this

I Love You, you weirdo

@jdc7733 tuku means allow uncomfortable sensations to be there (e.g. a foul smell) with openness and acceptance. Pest control actually came over to spray inside our house an hour ago. It reeks of chemical odor, but instead of running away from it, I’m allowing the discomfort to simply be there. (I also put the fans on… I’m not that reckless!)

This is nuts. How am I just learning about this now?

Reminds me of cats. They are indeed “aww”, but if you’re a mouse then it’ll be, “awww shit, get me the fuck outta here!!!”

One time on a date, we were reminiscing on past pains we have achieved. One story she shared was about a permanent scar she received. The scar is on her arm from mishandling a pizza in the oven. It’s interesting how when you’re so connected, sharing pain becomes a joy rather than a suffering.

If that’s what you’re after, then become enlightened. Like, Ramana levels of enlightenment. Just be nothing to get there!

All my psychedelic failures have turned out to be miracles.

Dammit Sincerity, I should be paying you for this dream analysis!

@Sincerity Ahh, yes. When I re-read my dream journal, the dream continues. I find myself dropping off my childhood friend to see his family. I immediately woke up out of the dream…. In hindsight, it could be because I still have deep animosity and fear around my family. This is the most challenging part that I’m simply not ready for yet. One day I’ll forgive them when I’m ready, but now is not the time just yet.

Huzzah!!

@Sincerity Sweet. I had a vivid dream last night where I was roaming inside of a beautiful shopping center. I pass by a gourmet ice cream store filled with the most colorful and pretty flavors of ice cream I’ve ever seen. Attractive employees all working there. Moments later, I pass by a small, broken ol’ ice cream stand operated by a single, not-so-attractive worker. These two stores are only a few feet away from each other… so I ask myself, “Why would anyone go to this ugly stand when there’s clearly a superior option over there?” The twist? I immediately realized the Love through all of it… distinctions between what’s beautiful, attractive, ugly, broken… all made up! It’s all God’s creation and we can see it clearly the less selfish and biased we view ourselves!!!

@LostSoul I would focus on discovering that Reality = Love, and the rest will naturally follow. In ways that only God could imagine.
