Yes, this happens especially during my long solo retreats. That's the whole point of retreats and meditation. If you focus long enough you will enter a samadhi state. -

The genius and mercy of God's design is that all finite phenomena are temporary. Dreaming/form is a finite phenomenon. All finite things start and end, are born and die. https://www.actualized.org/articles/understanding-impermanence -
I suppose on some fundamental level I get a thrill out of saying shocking and outrageous things. I like speach which is provocative and bold, not mealy-mouthed. I feel that if a thing is shocking, it should be expressed in a shocking way. I feel it is untruthful to understate shocking things as many spiritual teachers do.

@OBEler That dose is too low. Ramp up higher. -

Very odd Maybe your body is immune to it entirely given your genetics/metabolism. How sensitive are you to other psychedelics?? Have you ever reached a breakthrough on any substance, and if so, at what dose? -
@willen1995 That comes naturally as you become more conscious and get glimpses of the Absolute through mystical experience. It gives you clarity and groundedness in transcendental Truth.

Yes, when I get to it. I have a big backlog of stuff to share. There's more to sharw than I have energy. See above. For now I have opted to release everything for free to everyone, other than courses. My blog is basically the Patreon exclusive stuff. Maybe this will change some day.

It doesn't work without crazy concentration which alters your state of consciousness. The key is the crazy concentration, not the question. Without concentration the question is worthless. -

I can't show you. But a psychedelic can -
I found a new psychedelic which is similar in potency to 5-MeO-DMT but has a super-erotic and sexual energy. I've almost had female-like orgasms on it. It's amazing for integrating the feminine shadow. It's like getting fucked by God

Years and years of constant practice in your mind and in front of a camera. Most of my practice is done purely in my mind. Every day. For 20 years. I'm constantly framing and explaining things to an imaginary person in my mind. But then you also need live speaking experience which you can get by speaking to a live camera or joining Toastmasters and attending weekly meetings.

It's not like I can stop you.

There's a lot more than 10 of them -
It's okay. That's just the level of development that you are at right now. As you get some of those things, you will outgrow them.

@WHO IS The key here is understanding what YOU means. I'm not talking about the ego-you. I'm talking about the God-you. Reality is not how the ego-you wants. Reality is how the God-you wants. When the ego-you surrender to the God-you, you will realize that reality is precisely the best way possible. The mistake is not with the structure of reality, the mistake is with your selfish perception of reality. If reality ever seems wrong, it's because you're being selfish. Reality is selfless. That's the key. The trick is accepting it. -

@WHO IS Keep going. You still have yet to recognize what God is. "god" isn't God -
Leo Gura replied to Someone here's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
What if you are imagining it precisely the best way possible? What if couldn't be any better? What if THIS is what you wanted? -

I think you underestimate him. He has contemplated many things by himself. He's even had some mild mystical experiences. It's just that it's hard to question/deconstruct one's entire mind. That would be a very rare accomplishment. As an academic of course he's trapped in academic psychology group-think. But that is par for the course. Don't expect an academic to be some Buddha or sage. -

Or, reality is a projection. -
Leo Gura replied to meow_meow's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
The key is to realize that nothingness is self-aware. Everything is self-aware because it is consciousness/Truth. It's not that there is no you. It's more a question if what the true you is. Right you think you are a biological organism, the body/mind. This is the false you. The true you includes all that but is fundamentall reality itself. You are reality. The body/mind appears within reality. You have mistakenly created a limited identity by attaching to the body/mind exclusively while forgetting that you are reality itself. Reality is consciousness dreaming up humans, trees, rocks, cars, stars, animals, universes, etc. Like in a dream, the body isn't you because the entire dream is you. You are an Infinite Mind dreaming up a body and a world. This Infinite Mind has no substance or physical ground. It is an empty field that can dream up physical objects. -

But what you don't appreciate is that by suppressing genuine urges they don't stay suppressed, they bubble up in neurotic ways. I would suggest that if you had a genuine urge to kill or rape people, you would already be a murder or rapist. You already have to be damaged to have those kind of urges seriously. Spirituality also doesn't mean acting out all your passing urges. Sometimes I get the urge to eat a pizza, but I walk by the pizzaria and tell myself, "No, I will regret it." It is possible to resist an urge in a healthy way. -

@zeroISinfinity Ever heard of Diogenes the Greek Cynic? They called him a cynic because he slept with dogs outside rather than humans. -

@Space I understand what you mean but for me that stuff is secondary. My trips are far more cerebral than bodily, although I do sometimes vibrate and work out kinks in the body. But all that is just to get the body out of the way to go deeper with insight and understanding. People are different so they trip differently. Martin makes a big deal out of the energetic yoga stuff but that is his style/bias. I don't trip that way at all. I go into silent contemplation.

That's the beauty of it. 5-MeO-DMT is imaginary. What if you were dreaming and you dreamed of an object that made you wake up when you touched it?
