No, it's because your mind is actively denying that such people are yourself. When you judge another human, you are separating them from yourself, which is fundamentally false.

Excellent! That is precisely correct.

I also find it problematic that he does not explicitly talk about God either. He is God-realized but he keeps a lot of things unsaid. He's got an autistic personality style.

That is his style. He's very rigorous and detached. Very Zen-like, very masculine. It has its pros and cons. It's not that he's not loving. He is a loving guy. But the problem is he doesn't explicitly teach it. The word love is not part of his vocabulary, which is a problem from my POV.

He is an excellent teacher, but he is missing the most important and deepest aspect of awakening. I used to think I was crazy to think so, now I know 100% that he does not understand existential Love. Love and Truth are one. This realiziation is critical. It is the core of this work. Love is not merely a human emotion. Love is the entire reason for existence. It's not just Ralston, I notice now that many Eastern spiritual schools do not properly understand or teach Love. Zen and Buddhism are guilty of this. Even Vedanta to some extent doesn't teach Love properly.

@xthebentnecklady I can save you the time of traveling all that way to slap me. Just slap yourself and it will be the same thing. Who knows, maybe that slap will wake you up from your dualistic delusion. So give it a try

Indeed

These are delicate molecules we're dealing with, so you definitely don't want to boil it or apply a flame to it. Just put a shot glass of water in the microwave for 20 seconds. It gets very hot. Then you can pour that onto your substance.

You ain't truly awake unless you realize that Truth = Love.

Align yourself with love and you will align yourself with God. God only has one intention: Infinite Love.

If you stare long enough at the carpet without blinking your eyes, you will see it start to melt and wave around. You can also notice neon tips. I mean sober. Usually sober people just overlook psychedelic effects in their visual field. It is filtered out as irrelevant to survival. But it's right there under the surface. If I sit down and meditate for 10 minutes my carpet starts to wave.

Enjoy it while it lasts cause it will pass and ego will return.

See, you don't understand understanding

You guys have much to learn about what insight and what understanding is. Stop being smartasses and contemplate deeper.

This is an attitude of selfishness. The goal of this work is to surrender and accept ALL reality, not just the parts your ego thinks are "good". Let go of needing life to be any particular way. Then happiness is posisble.

Scoops are very precise, but only relative to each substance. So each new substance you gotta start off with 1 scoop and work up to find your sweet spot. Yes, it's harder to share your dosages in this case.

This is false. Insight goes beyond thought. But also thought can carry truth, and must itself be a part of Truth, otherwise it could not exist.

Ultimately the only thing that's required to reach the truth is a genuine, unwavering desire to know the truth -- not your ideas of the truth or what is convenient and pleasant for you, but the actual truth, whatever it is, whatever the cost. If you have that intention, then you will ultimately reach the truth. And anything shy of that will not take you to the deepest levels.

Being indepedent is great but women should also cultivate their femininity. Don't try to out-man men. Rather charm people with your femininity. If that resonates with you. People fall all along the masciline-feminine spectrum. Find your place along it. Femininity is great! Strength can be either masculine or feminine.

@peanutspathtotruth You don't need some high power vinegar, just a few drops of the kitchen kind. Why are you so eager to stick high power vinegar in your ass?? You could probably even get away with just suspending the freebase in water. It does not really nees to dissolve to plug. DPT plugs just fine and it refuses to dissolve in anything.

It would be very hard to get through to his audience. They tend to skew conservative and hyper masculine and rationalist. They would see me as a religious fanatic, SJW, hippie soy boy.

Become as independent as possible. Learn to do things for yourself.

Opera's okay. David Rubin on the other hand , that's scraping the bottom of the barrel

A person worshiping a guru is not conscious that he is the guru. That's the point. Stop blabbering nonsense.

Hard to say yet. It's awakening after awakening after awakening.
