Funny, I watched that last night.

I can't see any problem there on my screen. I'll try looking at it on another screen. Seems like your brightness/contrast must be very cranked up.

Locked for lack of substance. Don't be cute here.

@CreamCat A good start would be to HEAR the critique and take it seriously rather than denying it or attacking the messenger. Awareness alone is curative. Yet even that is denied. Let's start by admitting there is a problem. How it gets balanced out we will figure out along the way.

Overkill, bro. Don't waste your time hoarding knowledge. Rather just listen and start practicing. Maybe just write down 10 bullet points per video. Only the biggest ideas.

@CreamCat But Sarkisian is not trying to belittle men. She is just pointing out certain imbalances.

Like all technology it can be used for good or for evil, depending on the level of consciousness of the user. Technology itself is always just a mechanical thing. What matters is the intent of the user. Of course powerful technologies must always be regulated because devils will want to abuse it. There is a lot of potential for abuse within BitCoin. Which is why devils gravitate towards it. No crypto currency will ever be allowed to go unregulated because it would be too dangerous to society. There are good reasons that banks and large transactions are regulated. Too many people would otherwise get exploited.

Be careful judging your results so directly. The opposite might easily be the case. As kundalini activates you can get crazy monkey mind as the body/mind purifies itself. You must endure such things if you want serious results. Peace of mind is a byproduct of deep purification. The purification process itself can be uncomfortable and agitated. That's actually a sign that it's working, not a sign of failure.

It felt gentle because you did a tiny dose of DPT. 20mg of 5-MeO-DMT is equivalent to maybe 70mg of DPT. 25mg of DPT is nothing. It should barely be felt at this dose. This all assumes plugged or snored, not smoked. Don't fall asleep during your trips. That's a waste of a trip.

Of course. Very common trap. Lots of Green shadow on display these days.

If the horror can be embraced, love becomes that much stronger. How weak would love be if it could not embrace horror? That is not true Love. Love can handle it all. Which makes it the ace card.

I highly doubt you can.

Cool, interesting one.

Explanation will not help you. Awaken, you must.

Nothin' beats pure synthetic chemicals. I wonder why some research chem company can't make pure LSA.

Oh, it finally came out, eh? Good to know.

This is extremely reckless and dangerous. I'm surprised that much armodafinil didn't kill you. Do not promote such stunts on this forum. Do not make a mockery of this work. You give the technology I recommend a bad name.

@Now_Is_Home Do not make a mockery of this work. You're not understanding things properly. Do not harm your body.

Just be careful that you don't make some poorly-researched rash decision. A big move like that requires lots of homework and research to make sure it's feasible. Business ideas need to be carefully tested to make sure they can fly. Never just blindly go all-in.

Sounds to me like your unique skillset, passion, and level of consciousness would go to waste in a standard political position. You can make a powerful political impact with spirituality. But it will probably be a much less orthodox path. Look to Gandhi as a role-model of what's possible. You don't have to work within the system. You can help mobilize people from outside government to care about things like corruption, Green values, etc. Yes, it's compatible, but you're gonna have to design your own niche to make it work. <Insert Life Purpose Course Here>

@ROOBIO Running a business presents a whole new set of challenges and growth opportunities.

Men are attracted to all sorts of types. Which is why porn of every stripe exists. There are entire websites that cater to guys who like fat girls, skinny girls, tall girls, short girls, black girls, old girls, young girls, hairy girls, shaved girls, Asian girls, Muslim girls, Christian girls, even girls with dicks and a thousand other things. The less people judge such things, the better.

To be fair, wanting to grow financially is still a form of growth (just a relatively low one). But hey, many people need to start low. Moving from Blue to Orange will often involve growing financially. Remember, financial growth is not simply about earning more cash. To really grow in this area usually requires some significant and serious mindset shifts. For example, for a person to go from working a 9-5 job to being a successful entrepreneur usually takes a lot of inner growth. It's not simply a matter of money. You have to start to think about the world and yourself differently. Starting a business is one of the best and most practical ways to grow yourself as a person, especially within Tier 1 of the Spiral. The problem is that many people who want more money do not even understand that money is a function of one's being. So when you ask them, "Do you want to grow as a person?" they don't make the connection between that and earning more money. They think they can just have lots of money while staying the same inside. Which would be disastrous even if it ever came to be. A powerful way to help people grow is to show them how things like money, sex, success, fame, a good relationship, a good family, good physical appearance, and happiness are best achieved through deep inner growth, not by chasing externals directly.

Sounds to me like you just need much more experience socializing. Socialization is just like tennis. To get good at it you must have many opportunities to practice. So very practically you need to change your life around so that you have more socialization opportunities on a regular basis. The rest will mostly auto-correct. You can't get good at socializing if you're alone most of the time. There is no specific way that you must be when you socialize. You can basically be totally natural unless you're some kind of psycho, in which case you'll have to reign that in. Be chill, friendly, pleasant, playful, honest, expressive, and relaxed. That usually works best. You'll be amazed at how often people just accept you exactly for how you are. Perhaps the biggest mistake of learning to socialize is to try to act a certain way to please people or meet their expectations. Just be you. Not everyone will jive with you, but that doesn't matter. Be comfortable in your own skin. Act with strangers the same way you'd act with close family. Assume everyone already knows each other. Don't try to act cool or impressive. As simple as all these things are, it can take years to learn. Especially if you've developed bad habits.

That's a big if. And presence has many degrees. You can be 1000x more present than you are right now. And it's also a matter of consistency. Can you stay present for 1hr straight? If you could, you'd already be enlightened.
