This isn't written by me but made some good points in the comments section of Mic The Vegan's debunked vid. "There is some misleading stuff in this video and it seems you've completely missed a portion of what she has to say. Before I start, let me preface this by saying that I am not against veg^ns. I care about animals and, like most people, I think factory farming is atrocious (as does Lierre). I am currently in the middle of making my decision between going completely vegetarian vs eating free-range meat. I honestly want to choose what will do the most good for the long-term (not just for myself). 1. The study that compares meat eaters and vegetarians (various types). There are several problems here. The meat eaters can just have a personality where they don't care about their health as much (way more meat eaters drink alcohol than vegans, more vegans care about general health than meat eaters, etc). By the way, that same article links to another article in Britain that shows no difference between the two groups. Maybe the difference has to do with culture more than meat vs vegetarian. Obesity is much higher in the US vs Britain, perhaps the disparity in obesity between meat eaters vs vegetarians is bigger in the US which therefore explains the difference between the two studies? So, what I'm getting at is, perhaps there are things that explain why meat eaters don't live as long as vegetarians that don't require them to become vegetarian in order to fix. For example, eating free-range meat instead of processed meat from McDonald's. You can't simply lump all meat eaters in the same box. By the way, she never said to go from vegan to eating any type of meat. She specifically rules out all factory farmed meats (for health, environmental and ethical reasons) and she eats paleo free-range meats in the first interview you showed. By the way, another major flaw (which she talks about) is that it could be that most people who become vegan and get sick stop being vegan and eat meat again. Therefore, most people who are vegan and healthy are the ones who have the genetics which allow them to eat vegan without any health problems. 2. Many studies show that our enzymes (for most people) are simply not as efficient at accepting vegetarian proteins vs meat proteins. 3. Clearly she's wrong that more vegans get diabetes. Although the results of the study you showed could very well be because vegans are less overweight than meat eaters (9.4 % vs 33.3 %). With that big of a difference, all the publication is saying is that because vegans don't tend to be fat, they are also less likely to have diabetes. 4. You can't talk about factory farming as if Lierre is for it, it's misleading. She advocates for the most humane treatment of animals when farming them. --- Like you said at the end, health is only a portion of what she talks about. However, I think that it is extremely important to consider the other points she talks about if our ultimate goal is to provide a positive net outcome and reduce animal suffering as a whole." All I know is carnivory is healing my body from a digestive illness (and it was a gradual path needing to go so extreme where my gut got to a point where it can only digest fresh beef) and I know of many people world wide doing the same, some for decades (recovering from serious autoimmune dieseases, obesity and even brain disorders like bipolar, not to mention in thriving health). It makes you wonder if the scientific studies demonizing meat have gotten it wrong and this was a result of there being too many variables (other dietary factors, lifestyle, consciousness for health) then drawing false conclusions. Not to mention business corrupting science. We have noticed that we are not able to digest plants easily due to them having defensive mechanisms (such as chemicals they omit to regulate their survival against grazing herbivores). Herbivores have very complex digestive systems to break down these chemicals (which maybe humans had in the past but not quite as complex anymore since we started eating more meat)...we lack the high amounts of bacteria and other mechanisms (such as a larger appendix) to breakdown all those plants. Also these many phytochemicals science knows very little about. Also fiber is very problematic for some and not as necessary as you may think ('Fiber Menace' book). Zero carbers do not suffer from constipation, they merely expel less waste. But yeah I'm not here to necessarily convince anyone, that's still to come (lots of good studies and movement going on now, check out controversial youtuber Shawn Baker for example, vegan's love him). I just want to start sharing with you my perspective because this is clearly helping tens of thousands across the world right now (thousands from a vegan background) and pretty shortly there will be no denying it. Not saying some aren't thriving as vegans, but it definitely ain't for everyone. I'd get very sick doing such a diet (believe me if that's what it takes then I'd do it), It seems I can't tolerate plants at all, i haven't cheated in 16 months apart from when i ate small amounts of garlic and onion in a chorizo to get my bacterial overgrowth in my gut more active so my antibiotics would kill them more easily, and I reacted badly to those plants. Before I started being a carnivore I was eating paleo with a lot of veggies and cutting the veggies helped drastically. Maybe if you were in my position you would had been more open to such a radical and unconventional/controversial diet as this.

Ok but the book is written by an ex-vegan...maybe check it out.

Btw I am a member of a carnivore group, I have eaten as a carnivore for 16 months recovering from a digestive illness. I sit in a facebook group of 20,000+ doing the same (some of them on this WOE for 10, 15, 20 years) and I can tell you that thousands are coming from a vegan background. The thing with veganism (for some, not saying all) is that they may feel good to begin with coming off the SAD however in the long term their bodies aren't getting what they need and some of them will notice this drastically, maybe others can appear to thrive from veganism but I feel these are the lucky ones. Maybe you could ask if it would be the same as a carnivore but what we have found (albeit mostly anecdotal for now) is that humans can survive merely from meat as the body operates in a completely different way and certain levels of nutrients are no longer needed (less Vit C needed due to ingesting less glucose as they share a pathway for example). Also the body can create the amount of glucose necessary for optimal function by eating fat and protein only and there is actually no such thing as an essential carbohydrate in the diet. Once again just sharing another perspective with you, that's the aim of this post, it's to open eyes a bit and at least start asking more questions.

The farmers get fucked over in this process as well I remember reading, by the 'Grain Cartels' (the companies that own all the grain).

I just wanted to share another perspective, didn't necessarily say this means to stop doing any further research. I just feel usually it is the other way around, it is an automatic assumption that Veganism kills far less animals (some people think hardly any at all) as it happens behind the scenes, is best for the environment and is healthy by default for everyone (which is just not the case). I feel like there is another angle but it is hard for me to explain it, I will have to read the book 'The Vegetarian Myth' again to grasp it. I just did a google search and found a podcast released by the author...just last night actually so could be interesting (and challenging) if anyone wants to listen. Definitely a new perspective for many listed here: http://drbretscher.libsyn.com/lccp-039-lierre-keith-the-dark-truths-behind-veganism-vegetarianism This week, the Author of The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability, Lierre Keith, joins me to dispel the three pillars vegetarians lean on to justify their dietary and lifestyle choices. Her book, published in 2009, is still widely discussed and referenced today. In this stirring discussion, Lierre reveals that just six corporations (who she calls grain cartels) own the world’s food supply and how they deceitfully market industrial by-products in the form of soy-based products, how global warming is NOT caused primarily by ruminants but rather by large-scale agricultural practices, and how modern agriculture is destroying our topsoil and our land in general. But she doesn’t stop there! She goes on to explain how proper use of grazing ruminants could actually be a solution to or environmental problems. That’s a message we all need to hear!. What makes her story even more amazing is that Lierre was a practicing vegan for years. Luckily she realized she was slowly destroying her body by not consuming the vital nutrients necessary for good health. So, will going Vegan save your life and save the planet as is so widely believed? Listen to this podcast before you answer that question. Key Takeaways: [4:27] Why Lierre chose to go vegan. [6:44] How the grain cartel used deceptive marketing to sell the industrial by-product of soy. [12:01] The cult-like elements of Veganism. [17:00] Will Veganism save the environment? [26:21] Moving away from government subsidies and towards grass-based farms. [32:13] Lierre describes the carbon sequestering process of soil and how global warming started. [42:44] Lierre shares the moral dilemma brought about by her personal gardening experience.

Yep I get what you're saying but I read in a book 'The Vegetarian Myth' that the only reason we have factory farming in the first place is because we have an excess of grain (because it is too simple for us to mass produce) and therefore it is another way for us to profit by having animals to exploit and also eat. Maybe eating more pastured animals would be better in the long run but yeah it is a very complex debate and interesting to see still not as black and white as some think.

I have been eating carnivore for 16 months today and have been slowly healing my gut. I am killing a bacterial overgrowth and restoring levels of stomach acid after draining it due to medicine prescribed my a doc for reflux. My psoriasis has dissapeared and my head is much clearer without the carbs. Still waiting on the energy, but fatigue has been my issue for years even before dropping plants. I have great confidence that I will be feeling better than ever on this WOE once my body fully heals. The 20,000+ facebook group I am apart of report incredible benefits and health transformations. Some of the 'veterans' on there have been eating meat only for 10, 15 even 20 years. Very sustainable in terms of being able to stick with it because all sugar cravings get killed because even a fruit or veggie is a simple sugar at it's core so your taste buds completely change.

Got a new one up, it's rather dark this one: This ain’t for the faint of heart, it’s time to seperate the fakes and the sages apart, if you hesitate your fate is gunna be rather dark and if you embark on this path then you’re a social outcast. Damn, I’m damned if I do, if i ask for the truth, then my screws must be loose. I’m damned if I don’t, you can call me a joke, I’ll unscrew as I toke till I’m loose as a goose. Most of us are real only when the truth suits and will open our hearts if it’ll end in a root. We try to bury our past, never addressing our blues, till these blues they smack hard just like the dude from blues clues. Hey wait up a sec, his OD was a hoax, the stress got the best of him, he quit the show, the pressure it messed with him, hair starts to go, see he’s just like the rest of us reaching for rope, hahaha, na that’s just a joke, coz here I’m bringing the hope to keep our boats afloat and to ensure we don’t cope, but we thrive in this life, with equanimity inside, the thought demons resign but there’s a catch for this prize, we must first realise in life we sort through our strife and by truth we abide, beliefs need to go, set your ego to the side as we enter the zone. They have us running and gunning and always lusting for money I find it sad but so funny that we still never see it coming that it just doesn’t work, seeking fleeting fulfilment since the days of our births. Yeah, and this be a bit of a grim verse but it’s sure to serve the purpose of reversing that curse, and with these words I really do just mean my best and if I spit them loud enough well then i might just wake up Jeff, and you’re next, if your name is Bob, coz even though you’re just a builder, you’re also literally God, and yeah I know it’s kinda odd I speak of shows that are long gone I guess I like to think back on the days before my world turned wrong. With the power of now and it’s might, tears will clear from your eyes before that knife ends your life, but new insights can turn souls dark as night and you may find now your cry’s of the existential type. Harsh, burns this pipe as you burn through the lies and then your mask lights on fire, the true self’s realised. Truth in your face, It’s an acquired taste, for now you shed those layers off because there’s nowhere left to hide. But pretty soon you will get on your feet and happily greet these encounters and stop looking to flee, you will see it’s god at the counter and it’s you he wants to meet, and it be true that you can count on it, it’s everything you seek. PLUR!

Hey guys, I recently started rapping and just made this one talking about a lot of the themes Leo covers. I wonder if anyone else on here has done anything similar? If so, would love to hear it. Not even necessarily rap, but anything where spirituality and creativity/music are interlinked.

Hey folks, the other night I took about 250micrograms of LSD and had an interesting trip which I would like to speak about. I went deep and struggled to fully surrender. It was unusual because it was like I was right at the point where I could see that my whole ego was just a fiction and my sense of self was trying to disappear (and at times it even did) but at the same time I was clinging onto my personal story which prevented me from letting go and actually having a blissful ego death which I have had in the past (on 5meo for example). I saw through the fabric of reality and saw how everything was created out of nothing from my thoughts but then I couldn’t go right into it I guess out of fear and attachment. I tried to meditate to see if I could better surrender and start enjoying it but I couldn’t calm my mind down enough. I felt like what had to be done was I had to stop thinking (or at least slow it down) but I just had a lot of fears of the unknown popping up and trying to conceptualise it all, how I am creating existence with my mind. At one point I had the idea to try hold my breath as a test of faith (I have done this during a mushrooms trip before as well) to see if I could breakthrough and get the experience that I had when I smoked 5meo but I couldn’t will it enough (not sure if this is even possible but I seem to get close). I guess I am posting here because I am a bit confused about ego death. When I smoked 5meo I didn’t have time to worry about my identity dissolving and therefore was able to breakthrough and bask in infinity but now I have had a couple trips where I have been like in this limbo like stage where I feel I am close to going back to such an experience (because I can just about see that I am eternal) but I am clinging on too much to my life . Then I remember Leo saying ego death feels like physical death so I am unsure how it is actually supposed to go down (when you get that advanced at meditation for example). Do you eventually get to a point where you need to consciously surrender your life (with faith) so you can breakthrough or does your mind just become still enough at some point that it happens organically and your self just disappears? Because I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be a painful process right where you kind of consciously accept to “die”… Hopefully this makes sense and would just like some insight into ego death in general and how it is supposed to go down when approached gradually with practices. I now feel that life as I know it is just procrastination from being able to surrender entirely to my higher self but I guess I just need to keep working at it. Does someone who becomes enlightened actually consciously face their own death in the process? Thanks a lot all!

Legend @MarkusSweden, thanks a lot for the words!

Thanks, this was helpful (and kind of what I expected). I know there are still things in my life i sort of need to tick off (improve health, relationships) before I will be potentially able to surrender better. I think my ego still needs to be built healthier before transcendence. Though in saying that I have been doing a kriya practice now for a couple months and got a retreat coming up so I will not sit around "waiting for a better time" coz I can see how that would be a trap as well. So I'll just keep on going with practices along side life purpose.

Hey guys, Just wanna leave with you another rap (real happy with this one). Once again it is a deep topic so I think you can resonate with it and it could serve as some motivation because it is a hard path. Quite an emotional tone to it. Lyrics below. Much love! Ya, I’m trying to let go but this neediness has got me seeking lust like a chode and these hedonistic tendencies they come and they go but they won’t ever let me be fulfilled or free, now i know but I won’t ever call it quits, nah I just keep on truckin’ cutting habits bit by bit, still on paper I’m flunking, I’m fucking sick of this shit, i’m handicapped coz I’m sick, and it’s a mish coz this fish insists to swim opposite from the rest of it’s school, coz all those lysergic hits have been unwiring the mess that schooling did to this kid, this bit of mind programming, we’re made up of bits, but there’s a glitch in the system, existence doesn’t exist, it’s shit, it’s hard work when you roll up your sleeves, shining light on the darkness be the greatest of fees, but my eye’s on the prize so Ima handling deeds and my mind be real tight, I put it on the squeeze. I’m squeezing drops of Jupiter, the cosmos hold truth, but the truth is in fact that the cosmos are you, but you’ll shoo this away, you’re too deluded and fake, and all this deep thinking aches becoz your mind be getting raped so just sub, sub, sub, submit, it’s time to let go, and it’s time to get lit, a potent trip makes you grow, you won’t know what you don’t till you face the unknown, can only hope that you’ll cope if you’re out of the flow. I got jars full of buds and bars, emotional cuts turn scars as chakras open up, profound and large are my words, still we empty our cups, I’m speaking fast so I think it’s time you keep the fuck up, here we’re sharpening swords, we’re stripping down to our cores, you ain’t taught this at school but you can work on your flaws, I’m going deep out of spacetime, I just wanna explore, I won’t be free till i see this void is me and nothing more but am I sure that I still wanna go? a good psychonaut knows he won’t return to his bros, he hopes tones of the universe will strike the right note, his mind gets blown as the universe just simply implodes he grows, he’s on his own but that’s a feature, not a woe, his ego goes, it slits it’s throat, as it’s delusions gets uncloaked, emotions get evoked as he defeats his foes and he knows death is just a concept, he’s casper the friendly ghost Yeah I know it be tough, and you be putting in this work but it’s still never enough, it’s rough, it’s fucked, you’re done with it, done making a fuss, but there’s no real good alternative when you go far enough, you see, every move you make is just a means to this end, to be content in your skin with no real need to defend, but your frame needs to bend coz there’s no end to this gem, the gem is the journey itself, the skin and the frame need to blend

I am wondering if I am doing the spinal breathing KP1 properly... I place awareness on my root chakra then slowly follow it up the spine to medulla as inhaling. My query however is that in KSR book it mentions to visualise the energy rising up the spine as well. I thought focus/awareness is seperate from visualising an image for example. Am I supposed to be visualising an image of energy while I do it as well? This seems too much to do at once if and wouldn't that then take the focus away?...bit confused. Thanks!

I did a 7 day retreat earlier this year and felt 5meo like effects on and off from like the 5th day on. Mostly it was during dreams, I had one very brief non-dual experience when waking from a dream (became the whole screen so to speak) and other than that i felt some 5meo like bliss (albeit subtle) during/around sleep at the end of the week. Apart from that I definitely had strong visions that begun on the 5th day (not sure which psychedelic chemical would be responsible here as apparently dmt doesn't get released till 10 days in the dark but who knows), sort of like scenes including figures/creatures moving around and also projected a full cave onto my apartment (no auditory hallucinations but they can appear after a bit longer i have read). It like created a space for this cave sort of encompassed within the perimeter of my apartment but of course not perfectly accurate so it made it hard to move around. then a cave ceiling that seemed to be 10m high with sharp rocks hanging from the top. I was pretty blown away that it was happening to me and it was just getting more and more intense as the days went on. I am hopefully going to do 10 days in September (still got the black garbage bags over my windows) because then I am sure I would have had some more 5meo like effects along with more vivid visions as colours and density was getting progressively more intense. It is very gradual though. The first 4 or 5 days all i got was the dark flashing white strobe like lights and weird pixelated light energy type stuff. Then all of a sudden things appear in the peripherals and from there it opened up for me. Probably the hallucinations are all just a distraction from the meditation etc but it was a bizzare experience i feel not many humans will ever have. Not taught this stuff at school about the brain haha. The figures were pretty creepy and often reaching out at me, but nothing too overwhelming as it still seemed just like a fake projector. It didn't have like a presence in the room if that makes sense. It was pitch black for me. I cooked in the dark (all i eat is meat) and wore a blindfold to cover my eyes from the flame and used a timer. You could somehow prep other sort of food im sure. Then i covered black garbage bags over windows, but be careful with this because some of the paint is ripped from it, think you can use some sort of attachment sheet for the wall. Covered every bit of light (even fire alarms etc) because your eyes become so adjusted that even the slightest dot makes a difference. It was quite an effort doing it in my own apartment but still much better than paying to do it away. Was nice knowing my bearings around the apartment as well. It was bloody tough though of course, don't even have sight to distract you haha quite uncomfortable like you're entombed.

btw I went to that guide to do 5meo, not psilohuasca itself

I went to the Psilohuasca retreat on the border of NL/DE last October and it was a perfect experience. I was super grateful to have an experienced guide to take me through the experience for my first time. First we walked through the forest getting to know each other, then he took me back to his house where I met his live toads which he milks, so therefore it is guaranteed pure. Then I was able to smoke the substance 2 times, at breakthrough doses. Was blessed to have this compassionate guide nearby to help integrate it all who knew what I was going through. Recommend!

Hey @furashido thanks for the in-depth reply, I really appreciate it! I totally get where you are coming from and most of my other tracks have more worldly themes which are then blended in with a spiritual message (such as the need for self-love in relationships, or attachments to romance, or addiction, nutrition etc etc). Still a higher level of consciousness would be required to understand those themes as well but with Promised Land I just went all out, understanding it is rather niche but still wanting to make it anyway out of passion and also I believe it could potentially help someone along who is already sort of on the path with solidifying conceptual understanding and also just serving as motivation. You make a good point about relatability but at the same time I don't have desire to tone it down all that much even if it means less of an audience. The backing track was not produced by me but i did hunt for something suitable which took effort, looking through chillstep tracks that are minimal enough to rap over. It is Glxy - Searching You. Sets a great vibe imo too. @furashido

Hey @Solace you're a legend for listening, cheers! Maybe follow me on soundcloud if you have an account.

Firstly, I did a search for the last thread I made (Spirituality Rap) but couldn't find it anywhere. I just wanted to share my newest rap, it is my deepest one yet. Many influences from Leo as you can surely see. Will post the lyrics under the vid link. Cheers for the listen peeps "Some of them say that we’re already enlightened and to live day to day with no need to put time in. I call them fakes, who ain’t grinding, they be mistaken, complacent and frightened. I spit bars to mars with this rhyming, mars bar’s be enticing, but i’m purifying, hard paths ain’t inviting coz beliefs be unwiring, still I’m working overtime coz I seek the deriving of truth, it’s absolute, but it’s hiding and it’s roots are twisted but exist in your psyche shit, you missed it, but it’s there for the finding, and it’s never too late bcoz time’s an illusion. but this ain’t excusing your lack of pursuit and I be ensuring you get on the move and move on attuned with the spiritual groove, your mood will improve as your vessel gets rinsed and soon you’ll attain that first glimpse, it’s huge it will make a great dint, it’ll shit on everything you thought you ever knew, on what you thought life ever meant, then your whole world view comes tumbling on down, but it messes you around coz that glimpse doesn’t stick. The pearly gates go shut, it’s back to being hell bound, you’re cut heaven only came in a pinch,and life’s a bitch, and then your ego dies, but in hindsight you’ll realize that it was never alive it ain’t no glitch, but truth was just disguised , helping you survive, it was hidden right before your eyes, the self is sly, coz it does mighty fine in deluding your mind into thinking your life is but one of a kind, when you’re kind of just one, you’re legit God himself but you’ve just been playing dumb. It’s been promised, if you’re honest. You swear to the priest you’ll abstain from getting on it, feeling so entitled and acting all pompous but beliefs actually keep you from heaven, how ironic. You’ve found God, nah you’re far from it You swear that you won’t take his name in vain, and that you’ll say your grace and show your full blind faith, right till the end of days, nah fuck your language games and they’re all the same, religion’s been straight up bastardised, and all in God’s name. but God isn’t a thing to deserve a name and your mistaken if you think he’s out there to be praised. It ain’t a he, it ain’t a she, it has no form and no fucking face it’s indeed a chameleon of colour and shape, but you can fuck the 4 dimensions, it’s beyond time and space. Don’t like chameleons? how bout toads, milk that little critter, go pack it in a cone, toke on that venom, watch your mind implode, 12mg of God molecule’s an atheist’s dose but that’s a drug right and it ain’t real truth? Being literally infinity will give you your proof but you limit your reality with rational views, and science barely beats religion in this age old feud hypocritically rude, they treat the brain as their god, yeah their models are cute, but set in stone they are not, still fucking far from the truth coz the truth can’t be got, at least not how they thought , but still determined they’ll prod and I ain’t saying to stop, but to fix how we relate to our human concepts and to start to meditate. Coz it’s time to go jailbreak all our minds from this fake ass reality for fucking god’s sake."

Been making good progress with my raps, just wanted to give an update of my newest videos and post my new Soundcloud account if anyone is interested in following me. Not meaning to sell it up to much as I know it is early days but I have quite a lot of drive to keep going with it and I think a lot of people on this forum can appreciate the topics I'm spitting Here are my 2 newest ones: (about the pressure put on us to find romantic partners and our lack of self-love) (about addiction and how it can be cured with Spirituality) and then my Soundcloud and fb, https://www.facebook.com/DistortedGong/ K will leave it at that, cheers guys and PLUR!

Yeah @MarkusR very nice, will keep up with your stuff! How long would you say you've been rapping for?

Don't take any psychedelics. By about day 5 or so you will start to hallucinate 'virtual reality' type hallucinations. I was literally projecting a cave onto my dark apartment and then fairly vivid figures (only getting more colourful and defined as time went on) were surrounding me and dancing/moving. The hallucinations came on rather gradually and all I really had for the first few days was a flashing strobe light every now and then and then some geometric shapes becoming more and more colourful which would serve as a sort of net which later created the projector like hallucinations. I made a video going into detail about my week long retreat and planning on doing 2 weeks later i the year because it was getting more and more hectic as time went on. Also had a brief non-dual experience when waking up out of a dream which reminded me of my 5meo trip I did a few months ago. I felt subtle signs of 5meo getting released towards the end of the week too, especially during sleep. I was feeling a subtle but similar quality of bliss that I experienced when I smoked the toad last October. It blew my mind seeing the dark come alive before my eyes without taking a single thing. Goosebumps all over when the first circus performer-like character came dancing right up in my face. Even had cheerleader strippers in there dancing with me at one point If you stick with the video you will hear me describe some scenes I experienced towards the end.
