  1. How conscious you are has nothing to do with how you feel. You can feel good and not be very conscious. You can be very conscious and not feel good. Be careful conflating these two. If you try to link these two variables in your mind, you will get into trouble. Reduce your suffering if you wish. But do not fool yourself that that means you understand anything about the ultimate nature of Consciousness. A long ass strong determination sit is NOT the same thing as deep consciousness! You can light yourself on fire with gasoline, but that is not the same thing as Consciousness!
  2. When I speak about the ultimate nature of Consciousness I am speaking from Absolute Consciousness, not beliefs, not theories, not anything any human has said. Exactly. I exist in your mind. I am a fragment of your mind which you created. No it couldn't. You don't appreciate what experience is. You don't yet understand that it is Absolute Truth. You haven't awoken to what Truth means. That isn't possible. Right now your consciousness is far from absolute. Hence Awakening is required.
  3. Don't forget this is the internet. Set your expectations accordingly.
  4. It feels like how the Universe was before the Big Bang. Any of them at high enough doses. 5-MeO-DMT would be the most direct.
  5. We all struggle with weight gain. Lol. The solution is to stop eating crap.
  6. Shouldn't really matter. It should be safe. 5-MeO is usually so powerful that I have never had the desire to do a big trip right afterwards. If you're gonna combine substances, then combine them. Why are you doing a second trip? My trips are so deep on a single chem that I don't find much need to combine them. But of course you could play around with that and find novel combinations.
  7. The biggest thing that is tripping you up is the assumption that there is only one God state. There are hundreds of various God states and they do not come in some linear heirarchical order. God comes in many different flavors. Yes, there is a state of consciousness in which you exist as a formless singularity. That's what people call the Godhead. It's not necessarily the best or ultimate. Do not equate that with Awakening per se. You don't need to be in a formless state to be Awake.
  8. You have invented a finite identity which seperated itself from the rest of consciousness. Your true identity is Infinity. You cannot use the issue of control to resolve this problem because your idea of control hinges on your identity. As your identity expands your notion of control will change. So actually you are begging the question here.
  9. Because God-Realization is a high level holsitic compression. It is not a reduction of Consciousness into a null state. Rather than moving downward you move upward. No, perception doesn't stop. You could say it gets super-charged and mystified. Your perception become Divine and supernatural. But that isn't the main point. The main point is that you become conscious of how you are imagining reality all around yourself.
  10. Or so you imagine. All your enlightenments are imaginary. And so is all your dismissing logic. Everything you tell yourself about your own enlightenment is a fantasy.
  11. It helps make the guru's job very easy. These nondualist teachers are lazy. They don't want to bother doing any serious intellectual labor. So they just dismiss it as unimportant. And thus they deceive themselves and their students. Nonduality is not God-Realization. It is a gross kinda of reductionism and anti-intellectualism.
  12. Girls are distracting, but you can't be serious forever. Let yourself enjoy life a little. The girl is your reward for a day of hard work.
  13. Correct. Of course. That would be the classic Buddhist Emptiness/Nothingness.
  14. You are assuming that control has some connection to identity. It simply does not. In your nightly dreams, you interact with characters you don't control, but they are all your own mind. Here's a much better proof: if you kill yourself, all of us will disappear. Therefore we are you.
  15. This is not allowed here.
  16. Lol Have you ever eaten a crocodile? It doesn't taste good.
  17. LSD is powerful, but 5-MeO-DMT is clearer and more direct. LSD will still have you playing games. Yes, the biggest downside of 5-MeO-DMT is the short duration. But this can also be an upside because you can do it any time of the day, and you can redose it with zero tolerance, unlike LSD.
  18. It is less imaginary than time. Stop listening to humans. Look at your direct experience. You see change right now. Your experience is Absolute Truth. Just look at it closely and stop projecting crap on top of it. The change you are presently seeing is True. It is not a deception. The deception is when you think that senses are deceiving you. Senses are not deceiving you, thinking is deceiving you.
  19. Sounds like you are unusually cheap. However this can be a good thing if you need to build up a savings for important purposes like starting a biz.
  20. 6,000 BC: mules steal our jobs!
  21. Your logic is terrible. 1) If solipsism is true, there is no one else to move your body. 2) There is much about your body you cannot move. You cannot move your hair. Does that mean it isn't you? You have extremely limited control of your own body. There is more you can't control than what you can. So this proves nothing.
  22. You see your visual field changing all the time. Now just remove time from that. Allow it to change but within Eternity rather than time. Just strip time from your experience. Pretend like you grew up but never learned what time was.
  23. So it's not so much the psychedelic then.
  24. Actually is was. Just not the ones you are thinking of.
