70mg+ is when things get really interesting.

The trick with the internet is that it can be used for good or for devilry. The wild west days of the internet are over. Internet is far too powerful a technology not to be regulated. The internet could basically be exploited to create a new Nazi like movements and destabilize governments. Balancing freedom vs regulation is very tricky. People do not appreciate how tricky it is.

@TheAvatarState It wasn't a pre-calculated thing. I asked what was most important to me in the moment. Technical minutia is something the ego-mind cares about. There are much bigger fish to fry.

You certainly can.

Nice short little video:

Relative to an oil or banking executive Musk is doing great. We can't really expect him to be a guru. As a big business guy he's about as conscious as they get. But of course nowhere close to enlightened. Be probabaly just did some LSD.

Do spiritual practices. That's why they exist.

Of course many business people are seduced by Silicon Valley and Wall Street culture. The center of gravity of the culture you hang out in will either pull you up or drag you down, depending on how high your aim is.

Teachings are more healthy when they don't demonize other stages, especially the higher stages which most peoole have yet to reach. So, for example, to be vocal about the dangers of stage Green right now is problematic because most people are still clinging to stage Blue and Orange. People need to be show the value and beauty of Green. People need to be lead to Green and beyond. Healthy teachings are those which lead folks to higher stages without demonizing other stages.

Fear and deep habits of self-judgment. Social survival is deeply wired into your mind. More, deeper awakenings are required and some serious, industrial-grade spiritual practices like meditation/yoga/concentration. Psychedelics will not rewire decades of bad mind habits. That requires daily practices over years. Emotional mastery is the hardest part of this work. It's much harder than a few awakenings and psychedelics alone will not be enough for that.

If you have a reliable friend, why not use that? As a newbie this will give you some peace of mind.

Observe yourself chasing positive states and notice how this subtle duality and attachment creates suffering. Expecting constant bliss precludes true peacefulness since when your bliss dips you start to complain, "Where did my bliss go? How can I get it back?" Which is the very root of unhappiness: trying to escape the present moment. It's okay to chase bliss. Just observe this dynamic closely so that you become more and more aware that it cannot ultimately work. Through lots of observation of this clinging you will slowly aikido your clinging into surrender.

If you have no memory of it, then that's the problem. You either did too much or you just weren't conscious enough to retain anything. This is one of the problems with smoking it. It's too fast, without giving you time to contemplate and understand what is actually happening to you. Contemplation is key here. This is why plugging it is much better for our work. The whole point of psychedelics is to make sense of how your consciousness changes. Not just to have an experience but to UNDERSTAND why this experience is happening and what it is that is happening. Next time lower your doses and contemplate what reality is. You're looking for insight.

@How to be wise Fortunately I care less and less what materialists think.

Conservative "intellectuals" are pathetic.

Chomsky is awesome.

Indeed We could stop acting like animals.

Imaginary foolishness is what all that is. If you really want to know, go do the work.

It ain't HPPD when you're in the middle of a high! LOL What happened was that you saw how your mind constructs/imagines reality. Yeah, you're in a hallucination at all times. The only question is how solid or loose is that hallucination. When you're sober your mind is very rigid and locked in. When you're high your mind is loose and free to imagine new physical realities. Nothing surprising about this.

I'm starting to regret teaching you guys this concept because of how badly you misuse it.

@Haloman Think about the stupidity of your logic. You are assessing the existential reality of a thing based on monetary value. And yet it's obvious that money is purely a human imaginary construction. Take this work seriously or don't even bother. You're not even trying to question reality.

Many awakening experiences required. Psychedelics help a great deal. So does Kirya Yoga. You are going to think you way out of your body. This requires radical changes in your state of consciousness. If you do 100 psychedelic trips you will become much more detached from your body overall.

@Truth Addict The human self you think you are is purely imaginary. Don't make this more complicated than it needs to be. Focus on identifying all the ways in which you are imaginary.

Camera crashed in the middle of recording this week's video. I'm also focusing more on writing. With all the weekly videos it's hard to find time to focus on writing.

Even advanced spiritual masters struggle with taming their sex drive. So for an average person it is basically impossible. You may as well stop shitting while you're at it. If you become a hardcore yogi, it is possible to transcend. But none of you here are at that level and I would never trust you to do it. You are better off being honest about your sexual cravings rather than trying to act all noble when deep down we both know you are a horny dog who cannot control itself in the slightest. If you were presented with an opportunity for sex you would pounce on it like a starving lion on a gazelle. Don't confuse lack of opportunity for some kind of spiritual transcendence. Just because you got no one to screw doesn't make you advanced. Actually it means you are even less advanced than you think. It makes you a starved devil. It is funny when a devil pretends to be above sex. You ain't fooling anyone but yourself.
