  1. @Natasha No roll backs...but free spirits with every bottle!
  2. @longusername12345 Trying to do this in self referential thinking, or ‘in your head’ is probably impossible. Making a Dreamboard turns this seemingly complicated thing into a board full of what you like, love, want to experience etc, in front of you. Completely different experience & vantage point. I would begin this, and take Leo’s LP course asap. What makes it otherwise difficult, is creating the life you want is already underway, and no one call tell you what your life purpose, or most ideal life to create is. With the dreamboard, day by day it becomes most obvious.
  3. @LfcCharlie4 Well, in my heart you’re already at LOC absolute zero. ??? (this is meant as loving, unitive & complimentary) ?
  4. Inspecting, letting go....creating. ??
  5. Just another perspective floating down the stream lol...the ox pics depict deconstructing to actuality, or ‘center’ around you, not an outside measurer.
  6. @Twega Attached to thought, indeed there seems to be form, difference, duality, permanence, impermanence, etc, etc, etc. It’s beauty is that it is not. What is not can not be limited / unlimited. The full stop, the full reverse, meditation, is the way.
  7. @James123 ?? You are among the rarest of beacons of truth & sincerity my friend. And of course, because ‘you’ are not. ?God bless.
  8. In not knowing, there is no actuality of the I and the it and the trust. You might say this is the ‘me who needs to trust something else narrative’, a dualistic layer of self referential thinking which veils the actuality that words like intuition, synchronicity, manifestation, etc point ‘back’ to. To inspect and dispel this ‘layer’, spot dualistic thinking, like claiming knowledge to define a ‘self’, or to uphold ‘self image’ over richness of direct experience, etc. The veil of mundane lifts from ‘day to day’ ineffable magic.
  9. Another perspective which might serve well, is that there are no conscious thinkers per se. That thought arises, but there is no one ‘there’ to take the credit for ‘thinking’. The thought that there is, and perhaps identifying with that thought that there is, could be what makes meditation seem difficult. In this perspective, the thought that too many people are unconscious thinkers would be recognized to be a judgement & misunderstanding on the behalf of one identified with thoughts. This also points to the usefulness of scrutinizing direct experience, or, inspecting is there a thinker, are there other thinkers in direct experience. Likewise in this case, the claiming or identifying with the thought ‘our mind’ and the narrative of it being strong / potentially becoming weak, could be resistance to letting go, and preventative of allowing the mind to quiet and experiencing insights arise rather (than voluntary ‘thinking’). Consider there is a ‘non’ aspect, that there is a source of which these thoughts arise, and it is the only actual intelligence. In this regard, we are not using, but relaxing the mind and receiving. In scrutinizing direct experience, is it recognized that there is no experience of death, only of the thought about “death”, and the thought which equates death to no mind. It could rightfully be said that meditation serves best by letting thoughts come & go, precisely as they already naturally appear to, and no longer attaching to or believing the thoughts. It is possible that a ‘background belief’ if you will, has been adopted which equates proper meditation / letting thoughts go, to dying. While monkey mind, or, self referential thoughts may certainly fizzle out, and awakening, aka enlightenment may occur, there is not a ‘you’ which actually dies. It’s just meditation really. In the absence of the activity of mind referred to as voluntary thinking & self referential thinking (thoughts about “yourself”) the true nature is, and is recognized to always have been, meditation.
  10. @machinegun Up to you, but I’m suggesting to do.
  11. Beautiful. Even more so to your insight, there is no ‘other than’ or ‘outside of’ the present moment. So there is no task or work to ‘be in’ the present. There is only the noticing, and inspecting, of thoughts which seem to ‘take us out’. ‘Thoughts’ which can only ever arise, in the present moment.
  12. A simulation would be simulating something or no thing, which is not a simulation, but real, or actual in comparison with a simulation. The word real-ity already points to itself as real. The contextualizations & recontextualizations held in the illusory finite mind upon what is real (like ‘simulation’), appear to leave question of what is real.
  13. @Muhammad Jawad I wouldn’t take between 3 & 4g. I’d take less than 3, or more than 4. That between 3 & 4 ‘zone’ deconstructs the ‘ego mind’, but nor fully, which can be uncomfortable (thought looping, intense self referential thinking, etc). When you add the second factor to that, which is eating the mildly toxic flesh of the shrooms (vs making tea and throwing flesh away) you get the ‘two punch combo’ of stomach ache and very-messed-with but not fully broken through, ego mind. Simple Shroom Tea Recipe Step One: Weigh out dose of mushrooms Step Two: Grind mushrooms into a powder Step Three: Chop up some ginger and add to mushroom powder Step Four: Pour hot water over mushrooms and ginger (and optional tea bag) Step Five: Let sit for 10-15 mins Step Six: Add honey to taste & enjoy! Optional if nausea is your main concern: Strain out mushroom bits and only consume the tea. In the end, making your magic mushrooms into a tea can slightly alter the experience and make consumption a little easier on your taste buds and digestive system, but be prepared for it to come on a little faster and possibly stronger than eating raw mushrooms. And remember, for the safest psilocybin mushroom journeys, always take safe use practices into consideration like we outline in our guide to taking shrooms. Enjoy and safe travels!
  14. Infinite doesn’t ‘fit in’ finite. Infinite can not come out of infinite. (Not two infinites) Not two...current vs previous or next, begin vs end.

  16. Life lessons from Helen Keller 1. Go after your dreams. Helen Keller did not believe in living life timidly or in being “realistic.” Keller believed that if you truly want to be happy and live an exciting life you would need to go after your dreams, which by default could not be realistic – otherwise, it wouldn’t be a dream. She believed that anything great that has ever been done, had to be different and defy odds…which makes it unrealistic and uncommon. She saw being “realistic” as a way of conforming to what society wants you to be. 2. You must have a vision for yourself. Keller once said, “It’s a terrible thing to see, and have no vision!”. Keller believed that we need to have a direction and a grand vision for ourselves. It’s important to envision the future and imagine who we want to be, where we want to go and what kind of life we want to lead. If we can see it in our mind, we can hold it in our hand. 3. Nothing is impossible. Helen Keller believed that people can accomplish anything if they stick to it long enough. She encouraged ALL people to stay committed to their dream until it works out. And, even if it doesn’t work out, the process of sticking with it will have taught us so much that we are now able to go and accomplish something else. 4. Experience is the best teacher. Helen Keller thought that “Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. Reading, listening, and watching is great, but nothing can substitute the power of experience. Life teaches lessons and life teaches with experience. Great experiences bring powerful understandings. And, all experiences become great, when you look for the meaning in them. 5. Focus on the positive. Helen Keller knew that everyone was fighting their own battle. Everyone’s battle is different, but everyone has one. Regardless of your situation, it’s important that we focus on the positives because that gives us the energy to keep fighting. Yes, the world is full of negativity, pain, and tragedy. But, it’s also full of people who are fighting against it! 6. Surround yourself with winners. Helen Keller once said, “While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.” It’s simple, winners hang out with winners. Don’t waste your time hanging around people who gossip, criticize, complain and condemn. Of course, we all have our moments when we are leading the charge of negativity, but that’s all the more reason to surround ourselves with winners who can help pick us up when we’re down. 7. Your future is in your hands. Keller once said that “What I am looking for is not “out there,” it is in me. You have been given everything you need to win. You have the same fundamental tools as the legends in history. Now, what you do with them is up to. Greatness and success are yours for the taking! ??
  17. You’re missin the point my man. You’ve no direct experience of how anyone but yourself views the world. The “view of other people”...is actually still your view. “If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Want to change the world? There's nothing to it.” - Leslie Bricusse, Anthony Newley ”Most people experience being a limited selfish creature. That creates a huge problem for us. All this clearly shows a God who doesn't care at all. A pure psychopath.” - SQAAD
