@Donald Of course psychedelics will never be legalized in places below stage Green. Psychedelics are far too threatening to all worldviews below Green. America, Canada, and Northern Europe should lead the charge. Once it's proven to work there, other countries will gradually open up.

Okay, I think this horse has been beaten long enough.

@whoareyou I told him it's dangerous and I don't recommend mixing psychedelics & SSRIs.

@SriBhagwanYogi Congrats! Although there's probably more.

This is an important topic. Medically, psychedelics like MDMA and mushrooms will soon be approved by the FDA for clinical use. This will happen within the next 5-10 years. Weed legalization is important toward the ultimate legalization of psychedelics, so we need more states legalizing recreational weed, and we really need a federal legalization of weed. This might happen within the next 5-15 years. And then we just need the most progressive states like California, Oregon, Washington, NY, etc. to start legalizing mushrooms & LSD. This should start to happen in the next 5-20 years.

See, even Sadhguru understands Spiral Dynamics basically.

I did not work on the 1st Bioshock game. I worked on the sequel: Bioshock Infinite.

I would actually make a terrible president.

It's not so simple. Adhering to moral precepts is part of the path. It's hard to reach satori if one is a devil. Hard, but not impossible. And it's hard to live in alignment with satori if one doesn't adhere to some moral precepts. Basically the moral precepts serve as training wheels. Even when doing psychedelics, your trips won't go very deep unless your mind is pure enough. Giving psychedelics to a guy like Donald Trump will not result in his realization of Buddha nature because his mind is too impure. First his actions would have to change. He'd have to stop lying, stealing, cheating, manipulating, etc. Or at the very least cut back on them. Of course enlightenment does not require adhering to anything. It is total liberation. But in practice you'll never reach it unless you make an effort to be less egotistical. A spiritual shift is also an ethical & moral shift. If you complain that people are devils after enlightenment, just try to imagine how big of devils they would have been without it. The mistake here is expecting some kind of perfect moral actions from people. This is not possible because morality is relative. Zizek likes to moralize without acknowledging that his moralizations are constructed by his own mind. If you are digusted by Nazis and Stalanists, it's not because they are inherently disgusting, it's because your mind is doing it out of survival drive. That is a self-bias Zizek's mind projects onto reality. Zizek seems to hold people like Nazi's as an absolute evil or wrong-doing, but that it is not Truth. That's not how a Nazi looks after satori. Perfection is not something one achieves through good moral actions. Perfection is already the case. All one needs to do is attain satori to see it.

@ethanb121 I don't smoke it so I don't know.

Of course this will depend on you. Some people love to yell. Personally I never feel the need to yell. For me it's too profound for yelling. Silence is golden. The best idea if you have roommates is to rent a cheap motel room for the trip. You can probably find a room for $40 on the outskirts of town.

You're not going to feel anything under 5mg. And all this assumes your vaporization technique is good.

5-10mg is petty low dose. But if I had to guess, the SSRIs will probably block most of dose regardless. It's not a scam. You're just not following proper tripping protocol. You are lucky something worse didn't happen.

This is definitely NOT how my trips look like at all. I think that is very dangerous and unnecessary. There is no need for water when tripping other than if you're thirsty, which you shouldn't be. Just drink a bit before your trip. The dose there is also too high. That kind of dose would traumatize many people. You can achieve massive breakthroughs in a safe & gentle way through plugging.

No. Be careful with that. Might not go well. I have read bad trip reports of people mixing psychedelics with modafinil.

It's both, since infinite/finite is a duality. Depends on what state of consciousness you're in. Everything you think is finite is actually infinite at a high enough degree of consciousness. There is the human mind, and then there is Universal Mind. The human mind is just a partial form of Universal Mind, the way a finger is part of a hand. When mind becomes Universal Mind, everything becomes knowable.

Via what method?

The Absolute can be understood using infinite mind. Mind is not merely a finite thing, mind can go infinite.

That's right, God is Nothingness, and Consciousness is Nothingness too. The word consciousness is tricky. People use it in different ways. The way I teach, consciousness is the only thing there is. But the consciousness I speak of is not produced by any human brain or body. And it does not end.

This is a revealing look into the Evangelical mind: Notice that stage Blue -- because it is very conformist -- is extremely easy to fool and manipulate by a stage Red/Orange opportunist like Trump. A stage Blue person has no problem buying the idea that Trump is "a man of God". Also notice how TYT (stage Green) struggles to understand stage Blue. It baffles TYT how stage Blue people can exist. They're constantly surprised by the foolishness of Blue. A classic example of the Blue vs Green understanding gap.

The brutality of life is what makes it all the more beautiful. Try to see ignorance as love. You can also start a life purpose to work on solutions. If you love so much, why don't you become the leader and show the world how to love nature as deeply as you? You could be the next Gandhi. What is stopping you from pursuing your highest love? When are you gonna realize you are a powerful creator? Show the world what you got!

@ajasatya How about your fucking skills?

Contemplate deeper. God is no fool. It knows exactly what it's doing.

Yeah... not deep enough. Too lost in materialism. Consciousness is Infinity!

For the same reason Truth is hidden. Survival
