Lol Once you're in prison your entire attention will go towards just surviving prison. Prison in not a Zen monastary. In prision, some dude will try to rape you and steal your dinner. Prison is a stage Red survival situation.

I'm planning some videos on a new topic I'm calling "Conscious Politics". It's a Tier 2 approach to politics and government which aims to go beyond the left/right divide. Well, interested or not, it's coming, so brace yourselves! Some of it will be controversial & radical, but also inspiring. If you lean conservative some of the things which will be said you will probably deny and react against. But there will also be critiques of liberal ideologies too. It's a tricky topic to discuss because it tends to polarize and distract people from doing the inner work. And yet it must be discussed. So we're damned if we do and damned if we don't.

You are conflating different discussions and levels of reality. When I talk about politics I am talking within a relative domain of human survival. When I talk about simulation theory I am talking about metaphysical issues which tap into the absolute domain.

@Jo96 It's not about quantity, it's about quality of contemplation and questioning. Don't just trip. Use the expanded consciousness of the trip to deepen your contemplation. Next time you trip, devote the entire trip to questioning What is the brain?

Fuck suffering. Fuck the Buddha. Go directly for Truth/Love.

@Jo96 Easy, psychedelics.

@captainamerica If you go chasing happiness, you will get neither Truth nor happiness. If you forget about happiness and work towards the Truth with full earnestness, you will get Truth, which is ultimate happiness. The problem is that your idea of what true happiness is, is totally wrong. So chasing your ideas of happiness will never lead you to true happiness and instead create more suffering. It is not possible to even know what true happiness is without Truth.

They aren't crazies. They are just imagining a relatively different POV than you are.

No it couldn't. You're just engaging in fantasy. Experience cannot have any cause at all.

It seems insufficient and incomplete to you because you're not conscious of what consciousness is. And no one can ever fix that for you. You parrot those words, but you are not directly conscious of what they mean. No it doesn't. No it couldn't. A computer is made out of consciousness. Nothing makes consciousness. All simulations are consciousness. But consciousness is not a simulation.

No, you must deconstruct further. The brain is imaginary.

Same thing that a car engine does inside a racing video game.

Dude, it's a publicity stunt. Don't be gullible.

Intelligence without wisdom is not true intelligence. We have a severe lack of intelligence within politics and even science.

You have no idea and you're just gambling. Be careful playing markets. It could just as easily follow a logarithmic scale down to zero.

That is precisely why 99% of people will never wake up. The pursuit of happiness and relief from suffering is the biggest ego game of all. If you want to be serious, stop caring about happiness and suffering.

The current Dem party is aligned with many social dem policies. Corporate interests are a strong influence in any major party and they will continue to be until we pass a Constitution Amendment banning money in politics. The Dem party just needs more progressive and non-corporate social dem voices. We don't need a new fringe party. Just elect more folks like AoC and slowly take the party over from the inside.

Yes, but that's not why Truth should be pursued. That's too selfish and petty a reason. As if escaping suffering is the most important thing in the Universe. Haha!

Progressives have to be very careful how they frame themselves because the lower stages will deliberately seek to misunderstand and demonize new ideas. Biden was able to win because the socialist label simply could not be reasonably stuck to him. Only a total idiot would believe that Biden is a socialist.

Thanks Of course the human body/mind is the ultimate bottleneck here. We can only expect so much from being in this form we're in. A human is not designed to understand all of Infinity. We should consider ourselves lucky that we were born humans and not donkeys.

I don't like this negative framing. To me the pursuit of Truth is the most positive thing. It has nothing to do with suffering.

@Thought Art Good work!

You mean confederate flag or actual KKK?

My DMT trips are deeper than my 5-MeO trips. Yeah, you took too much and traumatized yourself. Turtles win the race. Slow and steady.
