Firstly, nothing is egoic without ego. NO PHYSICAL ACTION OR OBJECT IS EVER EGOIC! EVER! Things become egoic when the ego gets a hold of it. I can use a fork egoically to murder your entire family. Or I can use the fork non-egoically to eat a salad. Even weirder, it's possible for me to use a fork to murder your entire family unegoically. That's right! I said unegoically! That's a bit of a stretch, but possible. An earthquake can kill a million people in the blink of an eye unegoically. Our aversion to death and murder is itself egoic. Secondly, even if my channel is egoic, for example, the point is to be moving towards egolessness. It's a long process. You can't just go to Walmart and buy egolessness off the store shelf. You have to bootstrap it from ego. Ego has to come to grips with the fact that it is self-limiting and must ultimately commit a noble suicide. That is the entire process in a nutshell. Your entire life is a game of you either moving towards that noble suicide or running away from it.

As you raise your baseline level of consciousness, you'll automatically find less and less value in material things, and you will start to see how materialism undermines itself. At the highest levels of consciousness, you will not even be attached to your body anymore. The entire universe will literally de-materialize. And then finally you'll taste the sweet freedom you were seeking through materialistic dead-ends. And it will be more glorious than you could have ever imagined. The best method is something like self-inquiry or mindfulness meditation. Or 5-MeO

And what if Trump wins and his giant ego brings the entire human race to the brink of extinction? The amount of damage caused by ego is incredible when you actually examine the historical record. Enlightenment seems to promote complacency only because people in our culture live like rabid greedy squirrels on crack cocaine chasing down the last acorn in the universe.

@JustinS Now that you mention it, I do recall the buzzing sensation at the very peak of ego death when I fully became conscious that I was God. It was like a giant spear pierced through my skull and brain, and Leo was utterly dead. Insane! Utterly insane experience. There is no way it can be explained to a human being.

Evidence: 30mg 5-MeO-DMT up the nostrils + 15 minutes. Case closed.

@Happiness Which is why I recommend snorting instead of smoking. Smoking is just extremely fast and overwhelms you. A slower, more smooth entry is probably a lot better for most people. So your mind isn't totally nuked.

Sounds familiar

Wouldn't surprise me.

Do not ask about sourcing for drugs on this forum. All such posts will be deleted. Sorry. If you're going to do psychedelics, don't be sloppy or lazy about it. It's your job to do the research.

It's not wrong. It's just stupid. Like poking yourself in the eye with a fork. And hey, if you wanna be stupid, go for it! You'll be in good company.

Even mushrooms will feel like 5-meo after 5-meo. Which is why I said be careful, 5-meo will potentiate all other psychedelics. So watch your dosages afterwards. If you do enough 5-meo, you should start to feel like you're tripping 24/7, without taking any substances for weeks at all. Because you're simply becoming permanently more conscious. When you start tripping spontaneously throughout the day, that's when you know it's working

Be resourceful. This is not a toy. If you're serious and care about your consciousness, you will find it. If you're just dicking around, then 5-meo is probably not for you. Did you finish high school in 3 years with 2/3 hours per day? It's been delayed as I am swamped with research.

@Yertle the Turtle Oh snap! That video! Man, you've got ONE life. It's gonna be over before you know it. GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!!! What are you waiting for? You're fucking YOUNG. Get leverage on yourself. Just do it and stop the overthinking and story-telling. JUST DO IT! START TAKING ACTION! Complacency ruins more lives than all the meth in the world combined. You should be out there hustling your ass off every thing day like an eager beaver, building your dreams. JUST SHUT UP AND DO IT!

Just as a tip guys: Don't read too many negative trip reports. Don't fill your mind too much with horror stories. Stupid people do stupid things and then post them as trip reports. Many negative trip reports are written by neurotic teens being teens, doing stupid things, mixing substances together with alcohol and weed, in the wrong settings, without a scale or drug test kits, using unknown substances & sources, etc. If you are mature and follow all the proper guidelines, hold yourself to a higher standard, and have faith in yourself and your ability to surrender when the moment comes. All psychedelics do is reflect your own mind back at you. They are a mirror. So polish your mirror and have faith in Truth (what you should be doing already anyways).

Variance is huge between dosages because it's very easy to fail to absorb the full dose properly. Someone can snort or smoke 60mg, but it drips down their throat or isn't fully inhaled when smoked, and so effectively they only get 10-20mg out of that 60mg. Or maybe they get the full 60mg! 5-meo takes some trial and error to do correctly. Smoking it isn't easy. That takes skill. Snorting is easier, but still easy to screw it up if you don't tilt your head upside down for 10 minutes like I discovered. I recommend starting low and learning the proper technique. Then going higher. Proper technique is especially important if smoking.

Sure, it's not hard at all if you really want it. The problem is people don't want it and minds are way too closed. Finishing high school takes more work than enlightenment. Let's not over-state the difficulty.

I don't consider 30mg very high. It feels like a perfect breakthrough dose. I would call it a high dose, but not a very high dose. Over 30mg would start to reach into the Very High territory. But you could be more sensitive than me. For snorting, 20mg is low. I doubt it will bring you to Absolute Infinity. At least it didn't for me. I tried exactly 20mg my second time. It was a relatively deep experience, but not Infinite. I've read reports of people taking 75mg or more and living. That's plain stupid, but just goes to show. I'm pretty confident that anything under 40mg snorted will not physically harm you if you are of normal health.

Any clips posted of the interviews will be deleted. They are nowhere near the final product and are not meant for release.

@electroBeam A) Not enough foundation work B) Too young C) Too low a dose D) Discounting the value of bad trips as part of the growth path E) You're probably failing to fully surrender

Sounds like you're applying the technique neurotically. Might be better for you to chill out and just meditate regularly, with love and kindness towards yourself. Meditation is not a dick-measuring contest. The most important part is that you're MEDITATING. Your posture is not that important. I meditate comfortably on my couch. If you have health problems, SDS might not work for you at all. Then again, consider that your ego might just be creating a backlash from all the neurotic self-discipline you've been forcing upon yourself (which is why you're pissed off). I suggest trying a different meditation technique and then returning to SDS after a few months to see how things have changed. Don't worry, you haven't lost anything. It's all consciousness training. And SDS is designed to be VERY hardcore.

Of course, that's the buying yourself 1,000,000 lottery tickets part. You buy a lottery ticket each time you sit down and question, question, question yourself.

It's random in the sense it's unpredictable. You will never know when it hits you. But just like playing the lottery -- which is random -- buying yourself 1,000,000 tickets can help you win very significantly. So from your perspective, there's no need to worry about odds. You can make the odds 100% if you want. But you still won't ever know when it hits you.

That's like asking, do mathematicians get diseases? There is no difference between any enlightened person and yourself.

Depends on how you define reality. I'm talking about what most people consider their reality, the ego-constructed dream state, the entire web of beliefs.

@Frogfucius Par for the course. Of course you will experience existential crises on this journey. Many of them. Many depths of them. Just keep going. And if it gets really bad, ease up on yourself, eat some ice cream, and watch some Donald Trump speeches Then come back to the work in a few days. Remember to temper your relentless drive for Truth with self-love and self-compassion. Be nice to yourself! Whipping yourself isn't God-like If you start seeing giant praying Mantis people creeping up on your from the ceiling, remember it's all cool. They're just praying Mantis people, nothing to see here folks... move along... just phenomena...
