Infinite Consciousness can take the form of an infinite number of entities or beings which can interact with each other. But all of this is being imagined by Infinite Consciousness. In the absolute sense, everything is one. In the relative sense, entities have their own existence. In this sense an alien or a spirit is no different than a human or an animal. The "physical" realm is only one out of an infinite number of realms populated by all sorts of beings. All these realms and beings are ultimately you. Just like in a dream.

Do not post on this forum while tripping. You are making a juvenile mockery of this powerful tool.

Careful. If only life were so simple. Corporations are necessary, a vital part of society, and they feed you many benefits and goods. The issue is one of right balance, not a blanket demonization of corporations. Corporations evolve in their level of development and consciousness just like humans. There are Red corporations, Blue, Orange, Green, Yellow, etc.

People who will the lottery do not experience any real change in themsleves as a result of the win. They don't grow. The money only exacerbates all their egoic tendecies and so they are no happier for it. It's just a lucky event no different than finding a penny on the sidewalk. It won't solve anything.

Contemplate how a camera works in your dreams.

There's no contradiction at all. Christ is the son of God. Christ is God. You are the son of God. You are God. You are Christ. You are all humans. You are me. You invented Christianity and all other religions. The entire universe is happening in your mind. The apparent contradiction arises because people do not properly understand Christ's teachings, because they are using ego to interpret them. A devil cannot read the words of Christ properly. Modern mainstream Christians are devils.

Objective here means that a stage Yellow person has enough cognitive development to stand outside his own bias. This is only possible at Tier 2 and up. Tier 1 minds are not aware of how self-bias warps their perception of reality. Nor do they appreciate the importance of transcending self-bias. Rememeber, ego distorts all perceptions.

You are responsible for creating the entire universe. But this is way too much for you to accept right now. Again, it all boils down to your circle of concern and your level of consciousness. Your notion of responsibility is very limited.

Psychedelics are good for busting you out of a rut. They can show you a life beyond struggle. Which then becomes something worth growing towards. I don't understand why 4 years of work hasn't improved your life. Why is the struggle so bad? Remember, this whole journey of self growth is supposed to be enjoyable. Don't do it because someone said you have to do it. Do it because it's what you're interested in naturally. What else are you gonna do? It might also be a good idea to take a break from personal development for a while. Come back to it later. Go enjoy life a bit. Follow what you're naturally passionate about, not some lofty ideal.

@Shiva Firstly, European regulations seem to be stronger than US regulations. Secondly, the lobbyist corruption problem is enormous and sneaky in the US. Corporations give millions of dollars of donations to influence elections and policies. It is legalized bribery via corporate PACs, fundraisers, think tanks, donations, gifts, lunches, dinners, golf, etc, etc. And it does not stop there. Corporate lobbyists actually get hired into government and when they leave government they go right back into the corporation and consult them on all the best ways to lobby government. It's the revolving door. Right now Trump has appointed the biggest lobbyists to head the regulating agencies like the Department of Education, the EPA, the FCC, etc. Their goal is specifically to dismantle regulations on their industries. Ajit Pai, the guy who killed net neutrality was Verizon's biggest lobbyist against net neutrality. Now he runs the FCC. It's absurd. The biggest oil company lobbyist now runs the EPA.

That is a big problem. Although it is possible to lobby without paying money or using other corrupt ways. You can't really stop groups from lobbying government. That's part of democracy. But they should not be able to influence using money or other gifts.

No. About 10 minutes is sufficient. After about 10 mins the substance will be fully absorbed and you are free to move around. I usually lay prone for the first 10 minutes and then sit up as the trip starts to really kick in. I recommend sitting upright during the trip so you are not disoriented. With eyes open.

For fuck's sake no! That is God! The solution you're looking for is LOVE! Practice being more loving towards yourself and others. Replace guilt with love. Love is God! Not ego. You are being egotistical when you judge yourself so harshly. Treat yourself with kindness. Doubt is good at the beginning of this journey. But at some point you gotta drop doubt and replace it with absolute faith in Love.

@RickyBalboa Unfortunately when it comes to understanding God, nothing but direct experience will work. Channel your curiosity into contemplation and tripping.

Maybe "quite a few" is too generous. "An exceptional few" would be more accurate.

@Angelo John Gage Good for you then. But drop the IQ debating points. You should be above such arguments. IQ comparisons are a red herring. Yes, unity through individuation is important. Trying to erase all differences is not the solution. There needs to be a very delicate balance between individual autonomy and collective unity. The whole point is that there are no easy black and white answers to complex systemic global challenges.

I suspect that quite a few philosophers had small glimpses of oneness, but not full blown enlightenment or God-realization, so their understanding was muddled and weak. It took me many awakenings to finally reach a point where my understanding of it is rock solid and free of dualistic confusion. There's just too much there to grasp it all in one fell swoop. It's like trying to eat an elephant.

God is fully omniscient and unlimited. The trick is that God's Will is that individual beings exhibit their will. God's ultimate choice was that you make your own choices. Since you ARE God, you're creating reality as you go along with your choices. God isn't merely aware of every possiblity of the game, God IS the whole shebang. Knowledge, awareness, and being are ultimately one. Anything you experience, God is. When you get horny, that's God experiencing horniness. When you feel pain, that's God experiencing pain.

@Angelo John Gage Your worldview may not be racist, but it is fundamentally ethnocentric. Your worldview is that you see the world in terms of races and cultures which cannot get along. Notice that your position is coming from a place of FEAR and LACK. That has nothing to do with truth, it's a limited, constructed worldview, and this worldview is serving your survival as a self. If those immigrants were your own mother, you'd sing a different tune. IQ is a silly metric. To make any arguments based on IQ difference is absurd because IQ depends upon the country's infrastructure and level of development, not racial differences. And even if there is an IQ difference, so what? A nation has people of all levels of IQ in it. You cannot keep all the low IQ people in some sealed off part of the world. Low IQ people are all part of our situation on this planet. Also, just because someone is high IQ does not make them an angel. There are many high IQ people who are ruining this country with financial exploitation. IQ is not equal to moral development or consciousness. Which is why it's such a bad metric. The world is going to be a multicultural place no matter how much you resist it, so might as well embrace it and get used to it. It already is multicultural. Immigration is the result of multiculturalism. When you create boundaries between countries, nature will obviously work to blur those boundaries. So the irony of what is happening is here is: humans invented all these imaginary ethnic and national boundaries, and now the forces of nonduality are telling you: not so fast! Those boundaries cannot remain permanent because no boundaries in the universe are permanent. The logic that you're using is that same kind of logic that people used against the Jews, Irish, Italians, and other people who immigrated to the USA throughout history. These Europeans were considered dirty, uneducated, non-White, and that they would corrupt society. Now it's totally obvious such logic is silly. Your logic is warped by fear of "other". No one is saying that we should have Wahhabist communities in the USA. And to conflate Latin American asylum seekers with Wahhabists is absurd. Again, coming from fear. Immigration has been a part of American culture since the very beginning. So to say that somehow these different races and cultures cannot get along is a projection of your own fear and also historically inaccurate. They CAN get along, but certainly not if you have an ethnocentric worldview which believes that different races cannot get along. By believing it won't work, you manifest it. To get along, you gotta stop seeing the world as all these different groups and start seeing the fundamental humanity of all humans. You also need to stop thinking so negative of people with lower IQs. As if IQ somehow determines a person's worth. The ultimate reason immigration is happening is because you cannot have a wealthy country next to a poor country. Nature will try to equalize that differential until both countries are equalized. Don't forget that much of American wealth and success is built directly off of exploitation of poor countries. The US manipulates Latin American countries to exploit them financially. Then when asylum seekers come, that's directly related to American foreign policy around the world. It's all interconnected. Your fundamental argument is that people are just too different to get along. But all of these people are on the same planet. So whether you like it or not, we have to learn to get along or we will kill each other. Learning how to get two different people to get along is our whole job! You cannot have a global economy as we do while also segregating people. What you're basically talking about is segregation. Your same logic was used to oppose the integration of black kids into white schools in the 60's. The whites' argument was identical to yours: "We aren't racists! All we're saying is, if you integrate dumb black kids into our elite white schools, this will ruin our schools. And they will get into fist fights because they are too different." Yeah! That's called segregation, LOL. That's ethnocentrism and selfishness. All of this is collective ego 101. We've seen it happening in human history from the dawn of civilization. Nothing new in this logic.

None of those folks were awakened except the Buddha. It's very rare for a Western philosopher to be awakened. Heraclitus, Plotinus, Berkeley, and Hegel were some of the few I think were awakened. Buddha-nature/Buddha-mind is God. Nirvana is God.

No, life coaching is a very specific thing, sort of like therapy. A guru is something distinct from that. A guru is guiding you to awakening. A life coach is not. The method of guidance is also different. Coaching is mostly done over the phone. A guru is mostly face to face.

It's actually not albino. It's just a rare white moose. It's eyes are not red.

I would not trust Jung as a source of deep authority about matters of awakening because I do not consider him to be deeply enlightened, regardless of his other valid insights and wisdom. The "ego" is a bit tricky and clumsy here. We have to be careful how we define that term because it can refer to various things depending on who's using it. From my experiences, the sense of human sense is a total illusion. The most enlightened people should have difficultly even distinguishing themselves from another human or animal because their consciousness is so universal. At my highest levels of consciousness I could not even understand how I ever thought I was born as a human. It just didn't make sense because it was so patently false & imaginary. And this was definitely not a pathological state. This is the most beautiful and profound thing ever. What happens at the highest levels of nondual consciousness is that the ego collapses and you become the entire Universe. Every movement of the Universe is your movement and Will. Every molecule in your hand is materialized into being by your Will (God's Will). For example, I once picked up a stray black hair from an ex-girlfriend on my carpet and I was fully conscious of how I designed that hair using my Infinite Intelligence, and how I designed my ex-girlfriend. But this cannot be communicated in any linear fashion whatsoever. The only one who can know these things is God. You must be God to understand it. A human cannot understand it. I think becoming God cannot be a disease if you do it properly. There can probably be many pathologies along the way as the ego-mind refuses to fully surrender and integrate. Probably the biggest danger at this point is that you can become so conscious that you just leave the body and merge into total undifferentiated Infinity. Maha-Samadhi. But I think this would be a conscious choice, so you newbies don't worry about it.

I think I've scared the bejesus out of all the materialists in the audience by now Probably. I try to keep the woo-woo stuff to the blog.

I actually don't know the exact species of mushrooms I took. But it also happens on synthetic psychedelics like LSD or 4-AcO-DMT. Distorting the visual field are what psychedelics are best at.
