It's just group-think. They are not questioning the practices of the past. They get well paid do as they were taught. You should get a teeth cleaning every 6 months. Foolish not to see a dentist for 4 years. Just tell them: NO FLOURIDE

@Rilles You even lift, bro?

Psychedelics don't need a thought process. You could give psychedelics to a horse and it would still work.

It's not a bad point. I just don't see Amazon changing due to my not shopping on it. And there are many things I buy on Amazon that I could not buy in any local store. Amazon has an amazing collection of unique items that can't be found elsewhere. And many commodity items I would have to buy in a giant store regardless. What difference does it make if I buy my razor blades from Amazon vs Walmart vs supermarket?

I don't know what that means. Obviously he thinks since he talks and writes. He thinks 5-MeO-DMT doesn't produce awakening. Which is not only thinking, it's bad thinking. Good. But so what? We're not necessarily talking about him. We're talking about awakening the rest of mankind. And since the majority of his students are not awake it would be a shame to deny them the benefits of something like 5-MeO-DMT by dismissing it. How would you feel if I was a billionaire and then I told everyone else, "Don't worry about money. Money is not important." That's would be a very entitled position. Not everyone was born as spiritually-gifted as Ralston. And to pretend as though they were is absurd. Oh, they can definitely affect him. It's not just about what you lose, it's also about what you gain. He could gain some insight into Love, for example.

Sorry, I didn't mean to demoralize you. If you want to die on that hill, go for it. I was just sharing my opinion.

Of course I use it. I justify it in that lots of companies have abusive labor practices. I can't keep track of everyone's abuses. We need better regulations at the government level. Amazon does pay $15/hr these days. In general I don't believe boycotts are an effective means of improving society. It's too little too late. For Amazon to be changed by this you'd need millions of customers boycotting in a highly coordinated matter -- which I don't see happening. If it was about to happen, then I might join in. I'm generally not a fan of fighting for lost causes. If I fight for something I want it to have a decent chance at success. You have to fight with the grain of evolution, not against it. For example, fighting against smart phones is not gonna work. Smart phones are a force of nature that you will not be able to stop.

@zenjen Your intentions are admirable but you are trying to stand up against a tsunami and it will not change a thing. Amazon is here to stay. People will buy more and more commodities online because the reality is that local mom and pop stores are not efficient enough to survive into the future for staple goods. Eventually majority of stuff should be purchasable online from a single place. Because that's most efficient. As societies evolve old business models will die out.

Ralston grew up in the 60's and 70's, where lots of people abused psychedelics.

Stop looking for truth on Discord. That's your problem. You will never find a diamond in an outhouse no matter how long you look.

Lol What???

@Bando This is not the kind of thing you can convince a person of. The best you can do is convince her to do the research for herself. Heavy metals will cause cancer and all sorts of other vague health problems down the road. The problem is, you won't even know some health condition 10 years from now was caused by the heavy metals. Your doctors will never link the two things. They will blame it on bad genetics or bad luck.

It can. Not necessarily. An ego can come and go. It might be gone one moment and back the next. Of course. Of course the map is not the territory. My words are just words. Truth cannot be spoken. Firstly, many do. Secondly, many aren't conscious of what Love is. It is not easy to become conscious of what Love is via traditional meditation. Meditation tends to lead to the Void, which gives people a false sense of completion. Traditional meditation only explores a narrow spectrum of consciousness.

Reminds me very much of @Joseph Maynor. I tried with him for years and it only got worse because he was so pig-headed. I would rather focus my energy on people who will benefit from the advice. I used to believe that everyone should be awakened and saved, but this is not the case. Most are not ready.

When you meditate on the breath, don't inhale any deeper than when you're not meditating. It is a mistake to exaggerate your inhales when meditating. Just keep it normal.

@4201 There is only so much closedmindedness we will tolerate here. I am long past the days of bending over backwards to accomodate every arrogant fool who stumbles into these teachings. If you want a serious person to teach you, then show that you are serious about learning. An advanced teaching demands an advanced student, not a child.

@Cosmin_Visan Banned Be here to learn.

@Cosmin_Visan You are much too arrogant for this work. Stop fucking around. All your theories are wrong.

@JayG84 Stop it. None of this is awakening. Go do some actual work towards awakening, not this tail-chasing.

Yes, exactly. Keep digging your own grave.

It's simple: you project your own ignorance onto them. But of course your ego cannot handle such a possibility, so you just double down on your projections.

Yes! Good quoting. Fighting with the ego is just more ego. Analogous to how judging yourself for being judgmental is just a doubling of the mistake. Which is why I said that Self-Love is the highest teaching. Hating the ego doesn't work. Loving the ego works better. If the ego is acting out it's only because it seeks Love which it has been denied. So give it some Love to pacify it. The best way to get the ego onboard with killing itself is by showing the ego that "killing itself" just means Infinite Love.

@JayG84 It cannot be explained logically.
