  1. In my own experience. Psychedelics helped me in terms of opening my eyes to new possibilities. But it's important to realize that they can also give you unneccecary mental baggage. I had to shed a LOT of such baggage in order to realize the truth. Which is so simple you don't need drugs to understand it. Also, you don't need to abstain from them either, the truth is what is. But what you seek is the knowingness of this truth, and psychedelics can dillude you without you even knowing it. Also. To answer the question. Enlightenment is permanent. You realize there is no enlightenment. How can nothing go away?
  2. Thank you all for your answers. Personally, I believe there must be something. Because when there is nothing, there will be no sense of time, which means no matter how long it takes to experience the next thing, it will feel like no time ever passed. As to what comes next, I still don't know. But your answers have given me a lot more to think about that. The theory from @Life Coach about killcam sounds fun @Prabhaker gave a very in-depth answer, and I feel most of it made sense. For me it is difficult to make sense of a lot of this non-dual stuff, since I've long been a very dry and logical person until last summer. And I won't just believe something without understanding why. But your answer made sense since it explained the "why" and not just the "what". Now I only got more questions
  3. Hello folks. I was wondering what you think happens when we die. When I say "die", I mean in the sense most people think of it. (some people think we go to heaven, some think it's nothing, and so on). As I understand. What many spiritual teachers teach, is that you're not limited to what dies, like my physical body. So when I "die". Wouldn't it make sense, that I realize it was all an illusion, and in turn see the truth as it is? (enlightenment?) (And no. I won't kill myself ) I could probably write this better somehow. But I think you should see my point, despite how limited language can be in this sense. Thanks. BR. Simon Christiansen.
