It's not enough to just get your metal fillings removed. You must then spend a year or two doing rigorous detox protocols. Then you can expect to feel better. Merely removing them is likely to make you feel worse, because removal causes more mercury to leech into your body.

No, I'm gonna tell you that you are.

Yes, ego does identify with those things to some degree. But it's not so much a problem unless you let it spin out of control. Ego can understand that it is God. And in a sense that's correct. It is God. Just don't stop there. Keep going deeper. This is a long journey. My ego knows it's God, but it doesn't become too narcissistic about it. You can think of it as an expanded ego. A trans-human ego. This kind of thing only becomes a serious problem if the ego tries to monopolize God and tries to put itself above everyone else and stops doing any further consciousness work. Continued spiritual practice is what keeps the ego from solidifying itself too much. The more I trip the more humble it makes me. But of course I can still get carried away if I'm not vigilant -- self-deception is always lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce.

@Striving for more Dude, YT is a freemium service. You expect all of YouTube's content to be delivered to you without ads for free? What entitled fantasy world are you living in? $12/mo to remove ads is a bargain. No other fancy features are needed. If you are too cheap to pay for an ad-free experience, then suffer through the ads -- that's the cost of your cheapness. Those who value their time and mind will gladly pay $12/mo for the ad-free option. If your time and mind isn't worth $12/mo, you got a bigger problem.

And everyone is within you

Consciousness likes to dream. That's what it does. Why would there be any limits upon what one can dream? The nature of dreaming is that it's unlimited. You are still judging good vs bad. From the POV of Infinite Consciousness all dreams are valid, interesting, and part of the whole. God is not going to exclude stuff nor eliminate stuff just because a human doesn't like it. You can't really appreciate how unlimited and powerful Consciousness is unless you experience some of the nightmares it can dream up. Your question is basically the age-old question of: If God exists, why would he allow evil? To which the answer is, God sees no evil, but you do since you are attached to finite forms. Reality is far too profound of a thing to make logic sense to a finite and fearful human mind. To understand God you must surrender all your judgments and attachments. God is infinite imagination, but you are asking God to be something less than that because it makes you uncomfortable. Well, sorry, but God has bigger priorities than you personal comfort.

Yeah.... This is why people don't take the idea of God seriously anymore. Gotta be real careful if your mission is to truly awaken people. People are looking for any excuse to dismiss and discredit you already, and you're playing right into their hand by acting like an unhinged lunatic. In theory, image shouldn't matter. In practice, it's almost all that matters.

@Thought Art You'll only appreciate its use when you get truly stuck in hell.

You wish Careful. You may regret it. This stuff is no joke. You must treat psychedelics with utmost respect and moderation. This is not the place to act macho and prove how tough you are. Psychedelics will ALWAYS out-macho you. Consciousness is not all Love and paradise. There are realms of consciousness so horrific and sinister that you will forget that Love or God even exists. There are realms of infinite horror.

Except there is no one to teach but myself.

I don't know, but you don't want to reach that point. Trust me.

You ain't me.

If I went any further with 5-MeO-DMT, I'd be dead. I seriously thought I'd be dead by the end but somehow pulled out. If a normie did that, they would surely end up in an insane asylum. You start seeing visions that are impossible to even put into words and they are more life-like than normal life.

If it's just once, that's no biggy. But if he's doing daily for a prolonged time, that's when things get hairy.

So did Conor say what he's been smoking? Cause if it's back to back days of 5-MeO-DMT, I can see how he's starting to lose his mind. I've definitely been there. It starts to feel like madness. Gotta know when to lay down the pipe I hope people didn't get the wrong idea from my 30 days 5-MeO retreat. For the record, you should NOT do that! It's fucking madness! You will likely end up committing suicide. I only did it in the name of science.

Trying to locate it in space is an error. It is neither outward nor inward, here nor there, because it is everywhere.

Well.... there is no skull. Where you imagine my skull is, is Infinity. If you look carefully, you don't actually have a head. You have Infinity instead

In my deepest awakenings I've realized that even perspective does not exist. There is only one perspective: YOU. Which is not a perspective since this notion only makes sense there is 2 or more perspectives. "Perspective" is ultimately a dualistic notion that too must collapse. When the notion of perspective collapses, you're left with the Absolute.

Except scientists do not agree. Go read some Daniel Dennett, who wrote an entire book denying consciousness.

You clever devil! I'm stealing that one

You assume a difference between one and two. Sit in the silent recognition that all difference is imaginary and relative. Sit in the emptiness of that. And don't ask whether this emptiness is one or two, since that would a re-creation of your original delusion. At this point you must fully exit the mind. Stop thinking about it. Leave the mind behind.

It all depends. The emptiness could be similar, but they are not guaranteed to realize the same facets of it. One might recognize the Love facet. Another might recognize the no-self facet, and many more possibilities exist. It is not safe to assume that two people taking the same dose of LSD will realize the same things. Although of course there will tend to be much overlap if you take a large enough sample of people. Ground 0 is ground 0 of course. But there are an infinite number of higher levels of consciousness of that ground. For example, you can be conscious of Infinity. And then you can be 1000x more conscious of Infinity than that. And if you became conscious enough of it, it would kill you.

Ya'll should closely study and contemplate the notion of Anekantavada: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anekantavada

Ultimately it's even more twisted than you presently imagine. There is no Ralston's reality nor Leo's reality, there is only your reality, by which I mean my reality

Look, words are always gonna break down when you try to go this deep. The ultimate answer is to sit and shut up and be conscious. Infinity cannot ever be made sense of or explained. It will NEVER make sense to the logical mind. If it does, you fucked up.
