I'm just offering mushrooms because that's what I used mainly to get to where I am. The other ones are not my forte so you'd have to find others. It's not as easy to get 5-meo here I had to order it from EU, but again, 5-meo is not my forte.

@Nemra I mean you would have to pay the cost of getting to where I am and your accommodations as part of your budget. As far as the mushrooms goes.. it's pretty low cost here and I don't mind sharing unless it starts to become large quantities somehow.. which isn't how I would do things anyway.

Ok I understand. So where I am in Canada, it is not technically legal either except for medical use but they don't really care for personal uses so I can easily get it. I don't run any "centers" and I understand that you don't really know me. I guess my offer still stands if you ever want to visit Canada, I would be happy to help you (at no cost other than your own travel cost) if you'd like to try/work with mushrooms.

Ok so you are saying you have problem with access is what I'm gathering.

I did it all solo, so I'm not experienced with group settings. That said if you can't find a suitable one it may still help to have someone who's experienced and hold space in some form.

If you are interested in mushrooms feel free to message me.. I don't charge anything if you just want some guidance, but am experienced in it.

Not your original mind, or you would be the same as me by now.

Nice try but that's not exactly how this thing works. You have a mind to awaken.

Maybe not for you, but for me what would be better is if more people actually awakened (further), rather than keep on being stuck in this dream. But I understand I am massively "outnumbered".

I don't know.. don't get me wrong I used to be into weird creatures and stuff like hummingbirds too.. but I can't exactly "communicate" with them, same with humans these days...

@Shane Hanlon Interesting.. I experience the opposite, there's not much emphasis on "transcending" from my view.. most people are kind of stuck at where their average peers are at and is very hard to get them out of it.. Your mind is literally afraid of "transcending", it cares much more about "fitting in". For example I still have not found any spiritual circles that is LGBT friendly, it's all so heteronormative.

@trenton It sounds to me like you are already doing "your purpose" where you can. It's not absolutely necessary to turn that into a career if there's not a good fit for that. I would argue that the things that you are listing are generally not things that will earn you a steady income in this world (at the highest level). I am a healer but I have no desire to be a "professional therapist" the way this world is running it for example. I'm not saying you can't be though.. In terms of your own struggles.. if you ever want to reach out, feel free to, I have gone through some similar things with my family and may be of assistance in getting out of that particular funk. I consider myself "orphaned" some time ago.

@Schizophonia We are not getting anywhere coz we are talking to each other from pretty different states. Even if some one were to pay me lots of money I am not just going to "take anyone". I have actually turned down people who offered to pay me. Money is not my goal with this particular work, especially when people who truly need my help (could also be in some other fashion not strictly as a spiritual teacher) are usually poor. If I was truly struggling with survival like about to put on the street I would probably just say so. As to Airbnb, it is quite a bit of work for what you get paid for, maybe not like a McD's worker I guess, in my case anyway. I also do some side jobs and back in school atm. The thing is that, if someone more well off were interested to pay me for my time or whatever, and they're close to my state, it would be more like a "donation" anyway.

That's an interesting viewpoint, I don't think teachers who take money would be an exception to that though. I personally drift away when teachers keep enforcing the payment issue, it implies that I am not their equal.

I would advise finding paid work that is still "of this world" that aligns well with your spiritual pursuits. Short of that, you could also try creative ways to reduce expenses, like living minimally. Problem with tying your income with being a spiritual teacher is that it tends to corrupt it, because you'll be chasing clicks or something that can be of monetary value from your followers one way or another. I mean if you think about it, if everyone here suddenly became a "spiritual teacher" and tried to make money off of it, you will quickly run out of people. And personally, I just don't really agree with exchanging of money with spiritual teaching.. coz where I'm at.. if someone were interested in reaching my state, they'd be an equal soon enough. Not to mention that almost nobody even wants to reach this state lol .
