Those of you thinking that women can't or don't want to do enlightenment work need to read up on nuns. Or women yogi's like this: http://www.yogananda-srf.org/lineageandleadership/Sri_Daya_Mata.aspx#.WAZmGsnz8UI

On tests, do as they want. But for yourself, seek a deeper truth.

Ahemmm.... LP course That's the reason it was created. It's not about the money.

I know MANY women who are into enlightenment work. Careful making stereotypes. My audience is largely male because my approach is rather blunt.

I've bought some but haven't found a good use for them yet. They are mostly good if you are doing stuff like counting breathes or doing every specific pranayama exercises. If you're just plain old meditating, use a timer with a vibrate function.

Now you can appreciate Leela, the play of Shiva and Shakti

Waiting for someone to start a thread of best post-enlightenment names. I call dips on Sri McYodanada

@jse To not make use of a tool like 5-meo is an abuse of knowledge in my book

@jse There's no contradiction really. Most people will never become enlightened through 5-meo because they do not combine it properly with study and practice of nonduality. Like I said in the 5-meo video, a few trips on 5-meo will NOT make you enlightened. I have yet to meet a traditional non-dual teacher who has tried heavy doses of 5-meo. So the fact is, they do not know what 5-meo is capable of. Nor do you, unless you've tried it. So keep your mind open. Also, 5-meo should not be confused with psychedelics at large. It's a totally different beast. Lumping 5-meo together with "psychedelics" is like lumping together NASA's Saturn V rocket with toy rockets for kids you find in hobby shops. One is capable of breaking out of Earth's gravity consistently, the other is not. When I said that psychedelics will not produce enlightenment, that is generally true for most people. And my top concern was that people listening not get deluded off their self-inquiry paths. It's very hard to talk about all this stuff with you guys because almost no matter what I say, it will get abused by one group of people or another. Those who hate psychedelics will abuse it. Those who love psychedelics will abuse it. Because that's the hallmark of low quality consciousness. It doesn't listen with nuance. It seems very difficult for people do the following 2 things in combination: Self-inquiry High doses of 5-meo Instead what people wanna do is take sides and pick ideological fights. But I guarantee that if you did both, consistently, your life would transform in unimaginable ways very quickly.

All serious spiritual teachings and techniques are technologies to support the discovery of enlightenment. The best spiritual technologies are often simple and non-electronic. Although I am a fan of binaural beats for example.

@Aamir King There are MANY tools to accomplish both. SDS is ONE such tool. But like a good carpenter, you wouldn't want to limit yourself to just one tool. You want a toolbox. Can you imagine a young carpenter on the carpenter's forum asking the question: "I want to build a cabinet and a deck. Will a hammer fulfill both my needs?"

@InsidesOut 5-meo doesn't show you a void. Just the opposite. If you're looking for a void, Ketamine seems more like that.

@InsidesOut Don't get me wrong, any psychedelic is better than none at all. Mushrooms, LSD, mescaline, DMT, etc are all great mind-opening tools and will speed up your growth significantly if used wisely.

@InsidesOut Not as clearly or consistently. Try finding some Yopo snuff. Should be easy in Brazil.

@Ready You don't have a lot of time to waste. No one is going to really help you become enlightened. It's all up to you. Sit down and start deconstructing that ego. And if you wanna blow your entire worldview out of the water in 15 mins, try 5-meo. You will learn more from those 15 minutes than you have in your entire meditation career combined. You don't need more Vipassana. You need to self-inquiry. Answer the question: What are you? Answer it from direct experience only. No ideas, no philosophy, no belief, no Vipassana theory, no speculation.

@Natura Sonoris Be prepared to get your ass kicked If I was gonna take DMT, I would plug it rectally.

@DJ I felt awesome. Like a lifetime of emotional baggage and tension was shed from my body. Even my sinuses were cleared.

@Parki If you can't google for a drug test kit, then you're probably better off not getting involved with psychedelics at all. http://testkitplus.com/product/lsd-test-kit

@Kserkkj Learning to be OKAY with confusion and not-knowing will be a hurdle you'll have to cross in order to get to enlightenment. Don't wait for enlightenment to fix that for you. Fix it yourself now. Otherwise you've got very little chance at enlightenment. Enlightenment is not a knowing. It's an un-knowing. Your ego will likely NOT like that. If you try to get to enlightenment through your normal modes of knowing, you will waste YEARS of your life. It will never happen that way. It's safe to assume everything you know is wrong. So just throw it out the window and sit quietly with a blank mind experiencing direct experience.

@username If there was existential terror, you're definitely on the right track. But that was only the tip of the iceberg. So keep going!

Nice report! 5-meo will knock your socks off! You are ready to see the Infinite. (You might also be interested in looking into DPT.)

@Ramu Salvia's actually pretty dangerous because you lose motor control for a while. I'm shocked it's not already illegal.

Tis legal in Spain I believe. But check for yourselves.

Start low or you're gonna freak yourself out.
