That is the mark of a true sage / yogi / philosopher / saint / mystic. We are a rare breed. But the best breed

My kinda folk For sho. Not any of the nondual guys. New Agers probably.

@Sincerity You are LOVE. Ta-Daaaaaa! Maybe one day you will discover that there are an infinite number of different kinds of Infinite Love

When it comes to Awakening, mostly what it does is add beauty and depth to life. That is the key improvement. Improving your behavior and the like is not automatic, that requires serious work, and unless your behavior is awful then perfecting it will not necessarily make you much happier. Taking a bunch of chemicals is not gonna make you a good person by itself. The real reward of this work is the raw understanding itself. When you understand what reality is, that is the greatest joy. And then you see that in every direction you look. Life shines with Beauty and that is true happiness. Sorta like when you were a kid. Everything shined. Qualitatively, you sit on your couch amazed at the Beauty of it all. I've achieved a lot of material improvements in my life, but nothing beats that. Awakening teaches you how to just sit and be amazed by nothing fancy. Existence becomes an actual miracle.

This work is not something you really have a choice about if you value metaphysical depth. You just follow the metaphysical depth and it takes you wherever it takes you. Of course. My life would be easy if I did not put so much pressure to improve myself. Yes, I get it. That's important to do. That's okay. It all starts by following that intuition -- love of philosophy and metaphysical depth. Well, I suggest you do at least one psychedelic trip to pop your cherry and get a preview of where this work leads. That will be very exciting and inspiring for you. You want fuel for you vision. I spent 5 years building a business just to allow me to have time to do personal development stuff. And I invested years building up infrastructure to allow me to have to freedoms that I have now. Without that no spirituality would have been possible for me. But I didn't even know about spirituality back then. All I knew is that I need complete control over my life and schedule. Max freedom. So I grinded to create it. At your age you know more about spirituality than I did. There is truth in that perspective too. But there is a big difference between casually washing some dishes vs having to grind through a bunch of business chores that clog up your mind ans distract you entirely from being conscious.

Yeah, it sucks! I really hate chores because they are totally meaningless and shallow and distract me from metaphysical work. It's hard to say. It basically makes me not care about anything in this material world. It's hard to motivate myself to make money or even brush my teeth sometimes because it's all just bullshit. Some days it's just the grind of daily life and nothing spiritual is afoot. Other days I am racking my mind about how to raise my consciousness, how to embody this stuff, etc. Honestly it creates a lot of additional suffering. Life is much easier when you are not thinking so deep and just being a monkey. But there are also moments of transcendent beauty and appreciation for consciousness/reality because it is so profound. I'm making it sound kinda bleak but there is nothing better than Awakening. Nothing else in life matters. It's just not easy to integrate or live up to. It is a huge burden to live up to it. All the ego games are painful to observe in oneself. The ego-mind is still at work spinning its bullshit.

Try kicking it

Eventually you reach a point where you are fully conscious of how you are imagining the entire universe and everyone in it.

So, further Awakenings will take you to realizations such as: You realize what the bubble of consciousness is, which is God You realize deeper what God is You realize what Absolute Truth is Your realize that the bubble is Nothing You realize Infinity You realize LOVE You realize Eternity You realize Intelligence You realize Perfection You realize how you are imagining everything around you, past and future You realize that you can flip through an infinite number of finite selves You realize that all others are you You realize what alien consciousness is You realize what insanity is You reach even deeper levels of no-self than you thought possible before You realize that there is an infinite different kinds of infinite love And more wacky shit beyond that These can come in any order, it is not a linear sequence.

@Optimized Life The key is to find 1 or 2 good wings. That is possible through some of these chats. You gotta sift through the bullshit and find the serious guys. They do exist on there. Of course it varies a lot city by city. Contact guys one-on-one, do not post in the general chat areas. Try looking for local forums. The RSDNation forum used to be the best resource for this. They had a sub-forum for literally every major city in the world and it was easy to find wings. Nowadays things are harder. That kind of community no longer exists. But you can do some deep googling and find scattered stuff. It will really depend on your city.

Definitely they share blame. Any woman who promises a guy sex to then leech his life savings is scum. The difference is that Tate is 36 and these women are in their early 20s. Women that young are so naive they are easily manipulated. He is the mastermind of this scam. He uses naive and weak women as pawns. We would love to see Tate Awaken. But that ain't happening.

That's like the early stages. It's good, don't get me wrong. Very good. Yes, you are the whole visual field. You are a bubble of consciousness. But there's much deeper stuff to awaken to. The nature of the bubble must be grasped in ever deeper ways.

@Something Funny Thanks. I appreciate the kind words.

The next time you suffer, pause in the middle of it and make the distinction in your direct experience between suffering consciousness vs unconsciously. Unconscious suffering is usually some kind of sneaky avoidance mechanism, like if you yell at someone or blame someone. Conscious suffering is to suffering and reflect on the root causes of the suffering. What lead you suffer? How is your ego-mind responsible? What have you been avoiding that lead up to it.

Feel the suffering of it, and then leverage that to resolve to never make the same mistake again. This is how you learn your biggest lessons, by fucking up. Don't waste a perfectly good fuck-up by not leveraging the emotional pain of it to grow.

You can search for countertop RO systems. They exist. They are usually smaller and less effective but still... Here's some examples: https://amzn.to/3j3ghHd https://amzn.to/3wtiI93

Haha And Jeffery Epstein was just an innocent guy. And even if that's true, lead is far from the only chemical of concern. The only thing that's trustworthy is a chemical assay of their chocolate.

That would require years of training your focus. Serious Awakening is so radical that even after you experience it, you will not have any ability to reach that place through conscious effort. It's like aliens teleported you to their home planet and then dropped you off back home. You have no idea how to get back there. There's many degrees of depth to this, so the question is what depth are you talking about?. Mild stuff you can do through retreats and strong concentration. But not the really deep stuff.

@something_else Yeah, that's obnoxious as hell and clearly shows his sociopathy. The thing that's not even being said about this is that he was basically scamming desperate lonely Incels. Which is like scamming a suicidal person. I wonder how many people he scammed in this way committed suicide, or I can only imagine how pissed off they must be a woman-kind as a whole. The really ugly thing about this scam is that he's doing it via the girls, so the Incels don't understand that it's not the girl who's scamming him, it's a guy behind the scenes. But once they are scammed they will just blame the girl and contribute to this toxic anti-feminist ideology. When really it's Tate's toxic masculinity that's the true cause. As Tate says above, most girls are not so heartless as to scam guys like this. Basically what Tate did is use girls to monetize his massive sociopathy because girls would never be this exploitative naturally. Tate invented a method to use girls to laundry his sociopathy so that the victims never knew his face. Usually a sociopath cannot get too far into scamming people because his face becomes too well known to the victims. But in this case the girls were his front. Truly diabolical stuff from Tate. He shows zero awareness of the harm his actions cause.

No. It's just an inferior chem for me. I'll try it a few more times just for research purposes, but I'm not looking forward to it. For me THC is where the serious work is at.

That's brutally hard.

Of course it filters out something, but it's just a basic carbon filter. Serious filteration requires using an RO membrane under pressure. I've tasted Brita water at a girlfriend's house, it was so gross I would not drink it. Why torture yourself with such gimmicks when the real thing is not so expensive?

I took ownership of my schooling days and used it to massively educate myself. School is what you make of it.

Cringe, but still not as cringe as the right wing.

I dunno, a few sex trafficking charges, wire fraud, and tax evasion could get him 10 years. This isn't even counting the rape.
