  1. @Mips ChatGPT answer: Q: Does 5-meo-dmt cause epilepsy? A: 5-MeO-DMT is a psychedelic substance that can cause a range of effects, including altered consciousness and changes in perception, mood, and thought. There is no evidence to suggest that 5-MeO-DMT directly causes epilepsy. However, it is possible that the use of 5-MeO-DMT could trigger a seizure in someone who is already prone to seizures or has a history of epilepsy. It is also possible that the use of 5-MeO-DMT could worsen the symptoms of epilepsy in someone who is already experiencing seizures. Q: “However, it is possible that the use of 5-MeO-DMT could trigger a seizure in someone who is already prone to seizures or has a history of epilepsy.” Why is that? A: There is limited scientific research on the effects of 5-MeO-DMT on the brain, so it is not fully understood why the use of this substance might trigger seizures in some people. However, it is known that 5-MeO-DMT can cause a range of effects on the central nervous system, including changes in brain activity and altered consciousness. These effects may be more pronounced in people who are already prone to seizures or have a history of epilepsy, as they may be more sensitive to changes in brain activity. It is also worth noting that the use of 5-MeO-DMT and other psychedelic substances has been associated with an increased risk of developing acute psychosis, which can manifest as seizures or other abnormal behavior. This risk may be increased in people who have a pre-existing susceptibility to psychosis or who have a family history of psychotic disorders.
  2. Tulsi Gabbard, who was previously allied with Bernie Sanders and identified as progressive, is now a contributor on Fox News, working with Tucker Carlson, who has extreme far right views. How could someone shift their political beliefs so dramatically in such a short time?
  3. @Kuba Powiertowski War occurs because humans have the ability to hold their own opinions and strong beliefs, and are willing to fight in order to implement them. Other species do not have the same level of desire as humans, the drive that causes them to leave home and face death in battle.
  4. Do you have any evidence for that?
  5. Most of that change happened during my teenage years. And yes, people like us who are interested in personal development do change, but most people don't.
  6. @IAmReallyImportant Did you study it? Have you watched Leo's videos on Blue, Orange, or Green, and read books like The Religion of Tomorrow by Ken Wilber and Spiral Dynamics by Don Beck?
  7. It’s a beautiful song, but not necessarily the ‘highest truth’.
  8. @lxlichael I stand by my words..
  9. People don’t change. Never.
  10. @StarStruck All of reality is mind. That's it. Notice that nothing exists outside your imagination of reality.
  11. @r0ckyreed Your mistake is trying to make science relevant everywhere. Science is very important in deducing third-person reality, but it has no business (nor should it) in first-person spirituality. Let science be science and spirituality be spirituality.
  12. @IAmReallyImportant Do you understand spiral dynamics.
  13. Notice that fear is the only emotion that can make you unaware of the truth. You have to try to induce fear within me to make me lose my awareness of the truth. No other emotion would do it. It won’t work with me. The truth is the truth.
  14. Because adults don’t change. It’s extremely rare for an adult to grow spirally even by one stage. Our only hope is in the next generation.
  15. @Someone here Once you understand spiral dynamics, beige to turquoise, you’ll understand the diversity of worldviews. You just have to peg them into their stages.
  16. Not a ‘full understanding’, because that would imply you can’t go deeper.
  17. We don’t have to worry about that anymore.
  18. This experience should make you engage in spirituality more, not less. The mind is the cause of all suffering, and you have to use spirituality to undo the mind’s illusions.
  19. @Hojo You obviously have access to experiences most of us will never have.
  20. @Someone here There is no death. There is only the dream.
  21. @tuckerwphotography When Leo says God, he isn’t talking about a concept. Yes, God is a concept, but you need a concept to communicate something. What he’s actually talking about can’t be put into words, so God is the best way he can describe it. Don’t confuse the concept of God for the actual thing. The real thing can’t be communicated!
