@SageModeAustin According to your logic, every thought you ever had in your life is just a chemical in a brain. So by your own thought process, your entire thought process is contingent on an arbitrary soup of chemicals. According to you, all human knowledge is a hallucination. And you are right. But if you are right, that means the brain, chemicals, the body, the universe, and science are also hallucinations. It even means that you being right is also a hallucination. So what now? Anything you think or do is a hallucination (according to you).

Sorry, no time for it.

@legendary Son, you'd to be lucky to handle 300ug of LSD. It's gonna kick your ass.

@Recursoinominado That is a glimpse of who you can become by doing this work. So roll up them sleeves.

@Barry J How about doing something positive for mankind with your life?

@see_on_see Not really changed my mind, it's just a consequence of being THE ALL. The All is all things at all times. So there is no one you will not be.

@Outer Your smartassery is only hurting yourself.

To some degree, but not 100%. Depends a lot on your particular situation and what caused the cancer. If your body is full of toxic chemicals you may be screwed. You were never told to physically harm yourself. Stop being foolish. Enlightenment is a purely awareness-based pursuit.

@Barry J What is up with these false dichotomies? Both!

@Barry J I don't need to lose it. Enlightenment is naturally coming. The nondual awareness is creeping into me every day, bit by bit. Won't take too long now.

@Barry J Yes, which is why I take the time to write out thoughtful and clever analogies.

@Barry J Nope, I sleep just fine. It's JP who has sleeping problems: My fave JP quote: "...an overwhelming sense of impending doom." "You lay in bed frozen in something approximating terror for eight hours and then you get up." LOL! That about sums up his reactionary political philosophy.

@Serotoninluv What is sane? What is insane? What is the difference? Up to you. I would try to stay out of jail. But if got there, then I would meditate and do yoga. It is what it is. Who's to say what is "weird"? It is what it is. Truth does not care how helpful you feel it is. After all, what you call helpful is nothing more than that which saves your imaginary hide.

@kieranperez No, it was near Pine, Arizona. Flagstaff is too cold.

That's quite tricky. You're basically talking about camping skills. Go camping a few times without any retreat or meditation and just learn how to camp. You'll need to stock up in quite a bit of supplies. Dealing with the heat, rain, and cold will be tricky. Snakes, bugs, cougars, and bears can be tricky too. Many places in CA will require camping permits and camp ground reservations. But it could be a really great growing experience if you manage to figure out all those logistics. You'll want a first-aid kit, GPS, and some kind of weapon against creatures. Suvivorman: Yogi Edition

@CreamCat Wear your socialist badge proudly, comrade. Don't let JP shame you into a closet socialist

These are socialist SJW values.

@CreamCat So you're a communist SJW then

You say that cause you're in a position of superiority. A bit of inequality will help educate you

So slavery it is then? Careful what you wish for.

@Adam M Where's that enlightenment?!

@zunnyman She did not have any proper theoretical foundation so she misinterpreted her awakening as something wrong. Seems to me that she did this for so long and so severely that she ended up causing her own brain cancer. If she had access to some of the videos on Actualized.org, she would have been fine I think. It took her many years to find some realized teachers to help straighten her out. Consider yourselves lucky that you're alive in the age of Youtube and a flood of free nonduality videos. Where you can literally go to Google and find the answer to any question or problem you might ever have in life. People take this ability so for granted. In a world full of insane people, when you become sane, but have no one to talk to about it, you might find yourself thinking you've gone insane.

@d0ornokey It's very challenging. Western philosophers are masters at weaving together genius and bullshit. Best to stick to modern nonduality teachers for the most of you. So you don't waste your time. The books on my book list are what you should be focused on reading and mastering. You'll notice, I don't put a lot of philosophy books on there.

Bears shit a lot more than you'd think. They're just good at hiding it

@CreamCat You will care about equality more when you realize that you will reincarnate as every living being who ever lived or will live. That will sober the smugness out of ya.
