LIFE IS NOT WHAT IT APPEARS Life is not what it appears, It's more subtle, it's more light; What we see are simply mirrors, Different as day and night. Look around - forms arising Dense, transparency so vague To the eye is quite surprising Realise and sense to make. Do you see yourself as dancing Shadow on the screen of life? Always striving, always chasing, Always wanting to survive. But the void so still and peaceful Earns to soon be realised - Timeless, formless, simple, blissful, As the acted show disguised. The reality of being - Seek no further, here and now Take a rest and taste this freedom, To yourself applaud and bow. By Natasha <3

Oh shit! lol

@Leo Gura Thank you! Would you add this one to the list too, it's dope for tripping and just anytime

Naughty nature

@Vipassana Thanks for the updates. Keep up the good work

@Leo Nordin Timber Hawkeye's YT channel https://youtu.be/zFMAHzh-uoU

@Leo Nordin Look up Timber Hawkeye. He does just that and has good vids and info on this kind of lifestyle.

Do what the moderator at the presidential debate did

It all just is/'happening' and no one is doing it.

@X_X Drastic temperature change spikes awareness by putting you in the 'here and now'/ in touch with direct experience through your senses.

@aurum Welcome back to the forum

@evgn We are attracted to what looks/feels familiar to us on a subconscious level. If your mom had big boobs, most likely you'd be attracted to girls with big boobs, etc.

Does she also feel the same about you? You know it's not about rejection, it's about selection. Also, she's not universally 'special', if she was all 7 billion ppl would be pining after her, but that's not the case

@Dodo Thinking that out of 7 billion ppl on this planet, there is only one perfect match for you is quite an assumption. Besides, you don't know each other that well yet, never lived together, so you don't know what she's like on a day to day basis, etc. So instead of looking for 'the one', how about becoming 'the one' for someone else?

This might come across as a funny suggestion, but it can be very effective. Visualize the other person a few decades from now looking old, beauty faded, maybe even frumpy and smelly, and possibly with a old person handicap. Would you still want them?

@justfortoday It's a necessary part, the full circle isnt complete yet. Once it's complete you'll be able to move between the Absolute and the Relative with ease

"Hiperian, hud astras to the stars"...nice closing

@4201 You working on your project is Truth. There is nothing outside of it. Truth is the full circle and the Strange loop - from the Relative to the Absolute to back to the Relative, etc etc...

@Nate0068 By learning to switch the conceptual mind off and on at will. Also, transcending the ego. Regular meditation routine and mindfulness practices, like contemplation, self-inqiry, etc.

"We are nothing, but as special something" "Real growth is not getting what you want externally, but releasing the need for it internally" "Fundamentally, you have to be wired for self-deception, because the self is itself a lie" "Healing is Truth and Love"

@Javfly33 Look into the minimalist/intentional living stuff. You don't really need a lot to survive and get by in today's world. Cultivate contentment as an extension of your spiritual practice.

I had my first shroom trip on 2.5 grams a couple weeks ago. Beautiful experience, awesome senses enhancement (visual, hearing, touch, smell, rhythm), no side-affects afterwards, completely effortless and engaging. Did it with a trusted guidance and without a set intention, just to try out psychedelics for the first time
