lisindel

"Most people live as if they're destined to live forever". One of my favourite quotes. My name is Lisindel. I am from Chicago and I love the idea of self-actualisation. Ever since I came across Leo's channel I've been hooked. Like an audio book I love to listen to his fucking long ass videos! while I do things that would normally bore me (e.g chores)- it just makes time go by so much easier. (honestly highly recommend doing that if you find yourself lacking the time). As for my interests in making this journal, to be quite honest I've always wanted to create blog but I've never really found a good website to plant my flag. I knew I wasn't looking for a cliché travel blog, or anything else for the matter so this forum came quite hand in hand given self-actualisation encapsulates pretty much everything I know I've now found what I've been looking for. NOW. Changing topic a bit here.. I figured ( in my experience of searching for good forums ) not many people if all really post photos of how they're progressing, what they're doing, where they've gone etc. In this thread I hope to change that; to show anyone who comes across this thread that self-actualisation is a very real and tangible thing, to show what results it can produce and what results I have produced by doing what I'm doing which I will also document. Long Term Goals: Enlightenment Be fluent in 5 languages Travel the world Know how to defend myself Become a Vegan Develop a huge skillset Have a fucking awesome beautiful girlfriend. Become the strongest version of myself. Grow spiritually That's all l I can think of at the moment, i'm sure I will come up with more later. Anyway, keep in touch. If you enjoyed this thread leave a comment, if you have any feedback you want to give drop it in and yeah I'd love to interact with you guys ! Peace and love xx

Agree.

@Benton anyway thanks. I guess I will listen to Shaktipat when I'm not doing dmt.

Do you recommend listening to Shakti pat videos on dmt or would that be too risky? I really don't want a bad trip.

And why is he a genius?

Try keeping your phone locked and put away for a couple of hours everyday. Or keep a track on how much you use your phone everyday and gradually taper off.

Ah. Nope.

@Benton I tried dmt last week with my friends and I felt a bit unusual during the trip. I still can't figure out what it was. But I saw entities that were talking to me. I'm not sure if this is normal or not. Did you have similar experience with dmt?

@Benton I mean did you use any specific technology?

@Benton what techniques do you use while entering samadi?

@Benton much appreciated bro.

@Benton what psychedelic do you recommend? Sorry I'm new to it. Can you provide links for the methods recommended?

Perfect.

@Benton I live in Chicago. Can I get the Yantra thing you're talking about where I live? I've no clue what that's supposed to be.

Have you tried exercise?

Awesome.

@Benton that's a great video.

You were loved before you had arrived And every day that love just multiplies Daddy made your bed and your lullaby And momma made the mobile in the sky And loving you is easy, but life will not always be. Fall into the world of your song Whatever you feel can never be wrong. Come along for the ride And in a shake of the lamb's tail, we'll go Be still now and close your eyes And dream. Hanging out with the sandman You look so sweet, my child. Hanging out with the sandman. And though there's rain outside, you'll be warm and dry. The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now. So go to sleep, my love. Hanging out with the sandman. Chocolate-covered roof and candy cars. Rainbow sugar river we can sail upon. Marshmallow books and strawberries. Snowmen made of ice cream. Over the flower fields, we'll fly. We'll count the fish in the sky. Honeybees and birds sing your song. Whatever you feel can never be wrong. Come along for the ride And in a shake of the lamb's tail, we'll go Be still now and close your eyes And dream. Hanging out with the sandman You look so sweet, my child. And though there's rain outside, you'll be warm and dry The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now. So go to sleep, my love. Come along for the ride. And in a shake of the lamb's tail, we'll go Be still now, and close your eyes And dream

State of consciousness.

I am really interested in neurofeedback. It seems a very promising for analysing your brain. But it also seems expensive. Has onyone expercience neurofeedback? Is it for example possible to buy a neurofeedback device and use it on yourself, the same way we can use a heart rate monitor on ourself. Or does it take lots and lots of experience and knowledge to work with these things? Thank you for reading,

Does the pineal gland have anything to do with enlightment?

I just watched the "How to stop judging yourself" video. I completely resonate with the message in the video. For example, I constantly judge my parents for wasting their lives doing useless things, but I judge myself just as harshly when I watch TV or play video games. I also judge them for yelling at each other and fighting constantly. That made me a passive person who never speaks for himself. While it's definitely a big step to be able to recognize all these judgments I make, I want to know what I can do instead of judging. I can't help but think someone is fat when I see that someone is fat. I also can't help but to think that yelling doesn't solve anything when my parents fight again. What can I think instead?

Should I seek enlightenment before working towards a passion? I've been on the path of searching for my passion since school about 5 years ago. But, as my values change with my development so does what I want to do in life, ending in much tail chasing. If I seek a passion what if I find it meaningless once I pursue and obtain enlightenment?

Are you really THAT much happier meditating for years? Are you really THAT much for filled putting in the years of effort of personal development? Need some opinions of people been doing it for a year or longer, and some motivation to keep going haha (well i'll never stop but still)
