Facing your fear consciously is where the work happens. If you are merely reacting to fear unconsciously, that won't necessarily grow you.

@Marten Very cool! Thanks for digging into it. Yeah, I was wondering how they created that effect. It is uncannily true to what psychedelics do. It's like the mind is struggling to filter out Infinity, so it comes seeping in at the seams.

Time is purely a function of your current state of consciousness. If your state changes enough, time will cease to exist.

Well... your consciousness and mind is going through a very complex and elaborate process to link up those images on the recording to your entire view of reality and your mind is positioning those images within a certain mental framework which you call time and your personal story. This mental process is so sophisticated and complex that it's basically impossible to map out in a logical linear sequence. The deepest part of the mental is prior to thought.

If you want to find the secrets of the Universe, don't think at all.

That feeling....

Well, there's many layers of reasons why not. Of course in theory it would be nice, but in practice we are all too selfish to sustain it. That would require massive degrees of consciousness, selflessness, and love, which less than 0.0001% of people are currently capable of. The same thing that's stopping you from dissolving all your borders and merging into Infinity forever: fear of death. Not nearly deep enough. Fascists and white supremacists are still going strong in 2020. They have basically taken over the White House. So clearly we are nowhere near ready. Nationalist movements are on the rise all around the world due to fear of globalization. We are rapidly raising our collective consciousness when looked at in the geological time scale. But you are looking at this from the tiny time scale of your one personal life. That's why it seems like it will take forever. But in a few thousand years we might be really close to that ideal. A few thousand years is like a microsecond in God's mind. Everything that happens in the Universe is absolutely necessary for the maximization of Love. Especially all the "evil". We are right where we need to be.

I don't understand your cryptic ramblings.

What kind of online course?

Imagination IS reality. Reality is however you imagine it is. So if you imagine definite timelines of the entire universe, that's what you create. And if you say you didn't create it, but that it was there before you came along, then that's what you imagine/create. The key is to understand that YOU ARE FUCKING DOING IT! You mean the ones you're imagining now?

Do you remember that time you were a kid? Well, you're imaging it. Funny how time works.

National identity is ego of course. @Robi Steel What you need to understand is that your entire political ideology is an unconscious self-survival function. ALL OF IT! That's ego surviving. There's nothing true about it. It's grounded in selfishness and self-bias. So what you're defending is ego. All politics is survival and pure fiction.

What can government do to crub teenage pregnancy??? Nothing? Really??? He doesn't know? Sex ed, free condoms, birth control This is the lack of systems thinking and collective responsibility that I was talking about. And actually, government plays a huge role in making people "virtuous". That is the whole point. Good government can enable the development of virtuous citizens. Government's not good at doing things? Government does the most difficult task in the world, managing a powerful military. If government can do that, it can do a lot of other stuff effectively. The problem is that people like Rand Paul defund government at every corner so of course it can't be good at doing things then.

I hope it doesn't take you 20 years

I think this thread has run its course. Don't confuse awakening with suicide. Don't give depressed people dumb ideas. Don't give this work a bad name.

But there's far more to it than that. Even if he works out his fears, thoughts, emotions, etc. It still won't be good enough. He needs a radical shift in his state of consciousness. Which is either created through: Intense concentration on the NOW, or taking a chemical. Either way, chemical changes are happening.

You can think of Consciousness like one of those Transitions Glasses lenses which turns dark when sun shines on it, and turns clear when you go indoors. It's the same lens and it's always NOW, but the question is, is it transparent or opaque? If it's opaque, then you ain't awake, and nothing an awake person says will make sense.

It's a function of one's state of consciousness. You are in the wrong state. All states happen NOW, but you need the right state. So if you're in the wrong state, NOW won't feel like anything special.

This is crazy good.

Clairvoyance is a very common siddhi. Hence all those fortunetellers and psychics shops around town.

You can buy a good RO system for around $500. I use 5 gallon bottles of RO water, but I don't have an RO system at home (yet).

@Yog My brother and I both played EVE online when it first came out. It was so vicious, we got so beat up on by pirates that we quit the game in frustration. My brother was even scammed for $100 and all his in-game money. Which perfectly explains why no one wants to live in libertarianland. The bullies dominate everyone else because there is no referee. EVE is a game full of scammers and trolls. In real life such people would rape your children in front of you for sport. Which is why EVE never went mainstream. It can only exist as a niche game for the most hardcore people.
