Nonsense. I'm teaching myself Kriya yoga and it works like charm.

@Seed That's nonduality! Enjoy

Take extreme ownership of the problem and get a job or start a business. Freedom is purchased through hard work and strategic thinking. Flailing your arms around is not going to solve this problem.

Lol, mushrooms are hypnosis all by themselves. It's like you're trying to glue wheels to a horse.

Much of academic psychology is pretty crude. It certainly won't incorporate spiritual or mystical insights. But there's some value in it. What you really want is transpersonal psychology, humanistic psychology, positive psychology. Or just straight up spirituality, mysticism, and nonduality.

@Revamped Expose yourself to high quality Green people and inhabit their POV. Read Green books, watch Green videos. Why do Green people love Green so much? What are you missing? Contemplate that. Hint: what you're missing is love.

+1 An excellent Turquoise community.

@Haumea2018 That is a good point. Which is why I don't recommend taking psychedelics to those under 21. Psychedelics require enormous maturity and wisdom to use properly. They are a tool of the gods, not for fools.

I made a blog post about this topic not too long ago: https://www.actualized.org/insights/anekantavada

Kriya Yoga!

Nice quote. Yes. Whitehead was the kind of scientific mind which is rarely seen these days. His later works are quite good. He understood the ignorance of positivism, materialism, and reductionism. It's like modern scientists are going through an idiocracy phase.

You don't need thought for action. A thought is as real as a rock. But a thought of a rock is not a rock.

No contradiction. Just the usual nondual jibber-jabber. You can slice the same cake a hundred ways.

It doesn't. It just makes you aware that you are inside a hallucination whereas previously you weren't. It makes you aware of the full ramifications of your own logic, because right now you still aren't.

Teens in native tribal cultures do psychedelics all the time, and have been doing it for over 5000 years. Case closed. What's really damaging is all the TV you watch, all the video games you play, and all the garbage junk food you eat. Why ain't you worried about that?

@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!
