Good! That's not a bug, that's a feature.

This is also wrong. The Absolute both never changes and always changes. That duality is fully healed and unified within Absolute Consciousness. But in your present limited state of consciousness it seems to you that change vs not-change is some stable duality. By definition, nonduality cannot allow such a duality to be absolutely true. The only thing that doesn't change is change itself.

No, your assumption is false. You should not. Absolute Consciousness is so powerful that it can dream lesser states in which it is not conscious of itself as Absolute, even though it still is Absolute. Infinite Consciousness is capable of modulating itself down to finite consciousness. If it could not do that it would not be infinite. I keep saying, consciousness is like light. It comes in infinite degrees of brightness. A candle has the same light as the sun, but the sun has much more of it to illuminate reality with. Your current state of consciousness is like a candle. And awakened states of consciousness are like the sun.

Because your current state of consciousness is not conscious enough. It's that simple. It is not your fault. You can't help it. You are simply in the wrong state. All that needs to happen is for your state to change. As soon as your state changes you will realize that all experience is Absolute. This state-change is awakening/enlightenment/God-realization. See, these enlightenment teachers are bullshitting you. They cannot give you a clear answer for why you are not conscious of the Absolute. Because they don't understand that it's all just a state. There is nothing but state. The only thing that matters is state. If you are enlightened, it is a state. It might last 10 seconds or 100 years. But it is still a state.

This is absolutely wrong. All experiences are Absolute. If you think the Absolute is even 1 hair's width separate from experience, you're stuck in a duality.

Everything he says here is accessible through 5-MeO-DMT, and way more that he doesn't say. This idea that 5-MeO-DMT does not take you to enlightenment is pure horseshit. Now, does it make it permanent? No. It is supposed to be a short trip. 5-MeO-DMT gives you 60 minutes of enlightenment. That is the promise and that's what it delivers. I'm sick of people misunderstanding and misrepresenting 5-MeO-DMT and other psychedelics as if they are not genuine Absolute Truth and Infinite Consciousness. There is not a single thing that any meditator or self-inquirer has realized which could not be realized through psychedelics. The only difference is how stable it is. And guess what? Since time is an illusion, the stability of consciousness is totally irrelevant to the fact of consciousness. If you are in an enlightened state for even 10 seconds, it is still Absolute Truth. Also, no-mind is not at all necessary to experience Absolute Truth or enlightenment. You can experience it with a fully active mind, and that does not diminish Absolute Truth one bit, since mind is part of Absolute Truth. All these enlightened teachers think they are saying something special, but they are saying basic shit which you can realize by taking 2g of mushrooms. Nothing special about your self-inquiry or Ramana Maharshi or Buddha.

All evil is necessary. Ta-da!

If you are eating 1 small spoonful of any food, it makes no difference. You could probably get away with eating a spoonful of gasoline.

How long have you two been sleeping together?

Too much hippie vibes. It's this sort of fake positivity and happiness which crumbles when you go home at night.

Yeah, but he can't really control that. YT does not give creators fine-grained control over who places ads on their videos. I had to jump through loops just to ban Tai Lopez ads from my channel. Too much hassle to do that for every advertiser. And advertisers can circumvent your blocks if they are diligent.

Fish eggs are part of a mature fish!

Mostly: religion It's made 50% of the country morons.

Irrelevant

That is irrelevant to a discussion of responsibility. I have the freedom to spit in your face. That does not make it responsible to do so.

Not needed for me. I don't want to take any addictive substances or do substances chronically.

What is practical is what your ego needs for its survival. This is not to be trusted. What is practical is never holistic.

The worst offenders are business gurus who sell you courses on how to make a business by selling courses on how to make a business. This is classic pyramid scheme stuff, and people buy it because they want to get rich quick without doing anything creative or original. There are many great self-help courses which are not pyramid schemes in that way.

Yes Without theory, how would you know what to practice, why to practice, and how to practice? Practice without theory is extremely limited. Which is why doctors spend 10 years learning theory before doing surgery. Sort of, but you have to be careful here not to let theory become a slave to pure utility or pragmatism. Not everything you learn should be practical. Some stuff you learn has no direct practical application. The practical implications can be very oblique or indirect. For example, what was the practical application of learning about the French Revolution? Nothing immediately comes to mind, but it is still important to learn such things because of how they shape your worldview. Also, sometimes things are learned just for the sake of knowing them, not for any practical purpose. Much of learning is not obviously practical, so be careful not to limit learning to that.

I teach advanced and radical things. If one can't stand the fire, get out the kitchen. Do more simple and friendly forms of self-help. Yes, there are many ways to misinterpret this work. It's pretty much guaranteed you will to some extent. That's why direct experience and personal contemplation is so crucial.

Obviously it is relative. But there are lower and higher persepectives. Whining about masks and lockdowns and vaccines is lower.

Twas a joke. Or maybe not

A very scientific ego

Yes, that's the key: selfishness is so radical. It's important that you realize that. Not everything, but 99% of what you do is. It would Being. A rock is perfectly selfless. A living organism cannot be selfless without dying. But there is an even higher truth: selfishess IS selflessless and Love! But realize what that means: rape and torture is Love. Hard for a self to accept that, especially when it is happening to you. That's the rub, all lines you draw are arbitrary and selfish. YES! YES! Now you got it. All language and thought collapses into silent nonduality. When everything is ONE, everything is understood and nothing more can be said or asked about it. The mind is creating all these divisions and perplexities, getting in its own way. The mind cannot ever grasp ONEness. By grasping it, it makes one into two.

The best way to do cannabis is whenever you get the urge to do it, do 5-MeO-DMT instead.
