seem resonable to me, can I ask where you get that from ?

I've watched TJ's video and beside kinda imature personal bashing on Leo he makes very valid points.

Yes exactly so you got 2 options basicaly - try to find out what's really going through some spiritual practice or whatever you want - live your life and don't be bother by this stuff

What do you mean we are in a big dream. Go punch a wall and see if you get real pain or if its just a dream. Just becouse you heard in some "spiritual" video that we live in a dream or some other bulshit it doesn't change anything.

Being meditative is being in calm relaxed state. So if you're falling asleep maybe you're already calm and meditative. Ask yourself what are you trying to achive by sitting in one place for 30 minutes ? Maybe instead of sitting do something where you're compleately focused on what youre doing and in the moment and there is no way to fall asleep and you fell great after? Maybe go do yoga, play tennis with a friend, build airplane model, whatever works.

I think that's lying to yourself, eventually people get "hooked" it's human nature, even chemically you bond. It's like trying "responsible" binge eating so you dont get fat

Depends on what you mean by spiritual work becouse if she dosen't let you meditate or do yoga do not care what she say but if she's concerned with you weekly tripping balls on shrooms her concerns might be justified

@kieranperez Ralston on Joe Rogan would be lit but lit probably never happen.

Because everyone trying to get some

and what do you mean by "dissolving ego" ?

What do you even mean

haha, yes, that's what i meant, contemplate on that folks

@Serotoninluv From what I read on the internet synthesizing LSD isn't really that "straightforward"

My respons was as ridiculus as the question and it was by no mean an attack, just pointing out the ridiculousness. @Gneh Onebar Did you even try regular shrooms ? Had some bad experience with the nausea ? Becouse otherwise I don't see why would you wanna do them like that...

just admit that you're gay instead of putting stuffin your ass for enlightement

nothing more to add

There's a difference between what you have "learnd" aka experienced for yourself and what you read off internet or a book, so if you trying spread the latter no one will care.

Many describe enlightement as childelike state of being etc. What would you say is the difference between an elightened person and a child beside all the information that you gathered ?

so I be chillin to the fullest also you don't have to and if you don't want to, do not

If you going for logical argument first define what are mental state and psychological reactions.

Would you say that lack of motivation come from not pursuing your true desire ?

I am, my body is frustrated and my thoughts are too, especially when some memory or future posibility comes up. One could say that I'm not my body or thoughts but thats not really my experience. I feel like I care more about going back to calmness and clear perspective than enlightement. But when presented with posibility of enlightement can't really settle for something that is not the truth thus more unease is created.

Wow that's very accurate and more or less what I've been doing. I see how pattrrns from family relations work into this but it still doesn't help me to change the situation (which creates lots of friction in me), rathere meakes me repulsed by my familiy members. Perhaps more pondering is needed but it seems ineffictient.

What if what one seemingly wants probably won't happen and that creates suffering. How do you get to the root of that desire and truly resolve it ?

What events made you interested in enlightenment? How old were you then and when you attained?
