@Parththakkar12 I mean an incompetent buffoon narcissist con-artist.

Actually, Al Gore might be a contender: Al Gore would be a great alternative to Bernie.

@Parththakkar12 Be careful what you wish for. Indian Trump might in your future.

How judgmental are you of capitalists, Wall Street types, CEOs, religious people, etc? One of the hallmarks of Yellow is a drop in judgment of other worldviews and perspectives.

Just smear the vaccine in mayo-form on top of my bat. I like my mayo spicey.

That's a good question. I imagine something like Bernie, but more inclusive and understanding of Orange. Obama was actually a bit of a taste what Yellow might look it.

Right on, man!

@ShamanicAnarchist Yes, you realized that You/God is Infinite Love! That's the ultimate realization. Your bad first trip was simply due to fear and resistance. You had to face that fear and surrender in order to break through to Love.

Don't forget, Green builds on top of healthy Orange.

There is no way. You either take it and let it mindfuck you on its terms, or you don't. You're rolling dice.

Well, I consider that Ramaji got inspired by David Hawkin's scale but they are not the same scale. I would not treat them as interchangeable. Scales are relative things and you can always invent whatever scale you want. Nothing wrong with that. But also, I would not agree to try to define awakening on a one dimensional scale of any size. That's far too limited. Awakening is multi-dimensional and endless. So I could never agree to place it on a scale of 0 to 1000. But even so, Ramaji's scale could still be useful. I just would caution that all such maps and models are limited and shouldn't be taken as absolute. There's nothing wrong with Ramaji per se. If his work helps you, by all means use it. Just don't be limited by any one teacher or teaching.

No. I experience it as Infinite Consciousness and God, but in a gnarly different way than on any other psychedelic. But then again, I have only done a little salvia. I'm scared to do more. You want to be careful with such things. Don't take more than you can handle. Yes, on salvia, you will easily forget you ever had a life. This is a freaky experience.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm craving a bat burger.

TSH of 2.6 is not that high though. That's within normal range. With real hypothyroidism your TSH might be 20 or higher. You should track your Free T3 and Free T4. That's what matters most. But thanks for sharing.

3g can be pretty intense. Dial is back.

A much smaller extent than most alt-rigthers and progressives believe. Propaganda is a very sneaky and subtle force. It is not done consciously in most cases. It is unconscious. For propaganda to be most effective the people who manufacture it have to convince themselves that it isn't propaganda. They have to be true believers. CNN and MSNBC does not manufacture propaganda. They are simply an echo-chamber for mainstream American culture. Which is the propaganda/establishment. Everybody on these networks believes they are being objective, accurate, and truthful. Progressives make a huge mistake when they think that mainstream media is deliberately lying. That's a progressive projection which arises out of not understanding that people can hold different worldviews, and all worldviews are relatively valid. The progressive worldview is not "truth", as progressives assume. It is a relative fabrication. But of course, to understand this means transcending stage Green.

@traveler But notice, it is possible to go to Australia and pet some kangaroos

Life IS Love. There is nothing to do here but love. Anything else is lunacy. Is it scary to love so deeply? Of course! It's terrifying. But you are only here to learn how to love. You have about 85 years of practice.

Just keep in mind fasting can seriously hinder your ability to do everyday functions. The deeper your fast, the less you do. This can be a positive or a negative depending on your goals. There is probably be periods where you feel really weak and shitty.

Yes And to go to Australia you'd have to imagine it first. But notice, you are NOT in Australia. Unless you are Yes! It would create suffering as you would know you are disconnected from God's highest form. But that's preciaely what would then drive you to higher God-realization. As some Buddhist master once said, "Yes, end your seeking. But not too soon!" You imagine this And so it is. Unfortunately sticking your head in the sand about infinite consciousness does not make you infinitely conscious. You are settling for something less. Nothing wrong with that. You can also settle for being an egomanic. That too is fine. Who wants to stop being an egomanic? Raising consciousness necessarily creates its own suffering. And yet we do it.
