QandC

Let me burst your bubble: There was probably just water underneath the cup that made it move. Happens to me all the time.

Psychedelics all the way, but not something to do too often though Alcohol has the same effect on me, I become extremely self-pityful and self-loathing and sad. I like the rush but never the full effect. Also if I start drinking one drink, I cannot stop, I just keep drinking until the entire bottle is empty, so I stay the fuck away from alcohol. Psychedelics makes me extremely extremely outgoing, no fear at all, everything becomes golden.

Watched Russell Brand's podcast with Eckhart Tolle as his guest and Eckhart described something called "space consciousness", and I wondered what he really means by this, is he basically explaining non-duality? Becoming aware of the space as "something" (i.e not causing separation) is what makes you everything? If someone could elaborate that would be nice

This guy: Although he has some pretty good things to say, it's pretty obvious he's a libertarian

@Ananta Thanks!

I've been doing chakra yoga /kundalini yoga for a while now and some heavy meditation sittings lately. So during the night, I was on my balcony and I saw this man delivering newspapers/commercial stuff to different houses. I live on the top floor so I can see a lot from my balcony. Anyways, I can kinda see the car roads meeting, the ocean, the factories, houses, people, cars, just a lot from my pov. And when I took a look at the guy delivering the newspapers I got a thought like "This man is doing his job at this time without anyone knowing, and in the morning everyone will have newspapers". It just kinda dumbstruck me how there is something that we usually do not notice but contributes to the function of society. And then I kinda "zoomed out" and got broader and started to think of everyone working night time. What do they do now that helps society moving? And it just got broader, and bigger to the point where everything I perceived was involved with making life as a whole. Everything was connected. I kind of realized how massive and detailed a society actually is and how it works, and stopped seeing from only my POV in life. Instead, I was a part of everything, and everything worked in perfect harmony to make everything move. Suddenly there was not even a separation between what is human behavior, animal, organisms, plants etc, because everything worked in harmony. Even all the material that was existing, all the atoms and cells and molecules etc were contributing. From all the newspapers that man delivered, to the entire clockwork of the universe itself. So what do you think, was it a sort of awakening?

@WelcometoReality aaAAH I Got a few enlightenment points yaay

but FREDDIEE.....?!

@Red-White-Light So you're quite new then Kehehehe

@Red-White-Light How do you know? Have you even followed his channel?

Interesting... born enlightened or something

Haha good

Doesn't matter what it's portrayed as. What matters is what it has become and we all know it has become a "we vs. them" mob-mentality

...or just stick to psychedelics

How do you know? For who?

Imagine Leo and him having a conversation: "ENLIGHTENMENT FIGHT! ENLIGHTENMENT FIGHT!" lol jk but still, I also sometimes just wanna get away from it all and become a monk, but I bet that I'd regret it after a couple of days, maybe even hours

siigh...

@bazera It is. Some people react differently to it. I have had insane experiences with weed. Samadhi, non-dual states, all of that. Even crazier than I have had with mushrooms. I don't know why I react in that way, it must be part of my brain chemistry or something. Last time I did it I looked outside of my window and I literally knew that I was connected to everything. The bus stop I was staring at was a part of me just as much as my hand.

Ever wondered why babies can go from neutral to extremely happy in a second when playing peek-a-boo? Because every moment is fresh for them and there is no memory of the previous one. Reminds me of this documentary btw:

Lol just kidding, but now when I have your attention, what do you guys think Leo is up to at the moment and what do you think he will learn from his retreat? Gonna be interesting to see his results with healing etc.!

Red Red Red is all I see from the media

I don't know why but the way he describes God and the Infinite just made me feel it right away. Sort of disturbing and bizarre but still wow

...and what you just did WAS EXACTLY THAT! Btw. what other forms of way do you propose to us discussing and trying to help each other through? Everything in your life can be a trap. It's about finding what actually works for yourself that's important.

Does God need us for it to be realized? If there is no awakening/tuning into Truth of existence, then does God still exist? Does God even give a shit or is God still "there"? If for example I experience an awakening and I realize that I am God, then God exists. But before that awakening took place, God was not yet realized from my perception. So let's say no one would ever awaken, then would God still come to being? Or is reality itself God and does not need to perceive itself as God for it to be God? One thing I've thought about is that the evolution and purpose of the universe might be for the universe to become self-conscious, and it's doing this in very tiny ways such as people awakening, becoming more conscious etc. But then again, why? What is the point of it becoming conscious of itself? I guess a similar question would be: does a tree make a sound if it falls in the forest and nobody is there to perceive it?
