So according to you a kangaroo is just someone who hasn't don't enough spiritual practice? And how does a kangaroo go about fixing this situation?

So that's where all the Disney money went to. Interesting....

Dude, he was a complete genetic freak. There was nothing normal about it. If he was a normal kid, he's be shoveling shit for a living and chasing girls. Just to be interested in meditation already requires you to be freak of mankind. All your meditative accomplishments were only possible thanks to the right genetics. Which is why you don't find donkey's following Buddhism.

@ValiantSalvatore Certainly manual work has its value in rewiring your mind. My only point is that there is only some much that you can shift your consciousness through manual work because your neurotransmitters basically stay the same. No amount of manual work will get you to a breakthrough salvia level of consciousness. This does not mean your manual work is bad. It just means it's limited. Think of it like working on your car. You can improve it in any ways, but you will never modify your car enough to explore the moon.

Buddha was born a rich entitled kid who got everything handed to him. It's a lot easier to awaken when you aren't a wage slave and you have a harem of women. Jesus was certainly born with special powers. As a kid the other kids feared him because he killed a kid by cursing him. You guys love to mythologize these guys.

It's always hard to tell because they could be fake. Such things need to be seen in-person, not via video. Is it possible? Sure. But a video will never prove it.

Yes, those are helpful. But they are also quite limited because they are hard to produce in a controlled manner and you are still limited by your default neurotransmitters. I would not recommend it for most people. But for those who are very serious and willing to accept full responsibility for the dangers, it is a powerful tool. Noted. How else can God know itself unless it experiences ALL of itself? If you think about it logically for a minute you'll see that God must want to experience all of itself because this is necessary for God to be Omniscient. You cannot be fully Omniscient without experiencing all of yourself. No, but at least I am exploring them, unlike most people, who would rather invent excuses. If you love consciousness you should want to explore all of it.

Anyone who is in the top or bottom 1% of a bell curve. Like this white moose:

Those David Hawkins people are total assholes. They emailed me some time ago threatening to sue me because someone posted a picture of Hawkin's scale of consciousness on this forum. They can go fuck themselves.

You can't appreciate what consciousness truly is without exploring its craziest states. This is what those meditators mislead you about. Simply having a few awakenings into Emptiness is not a serious understanding of what consciousness is. It's like saying you know what sex is but you've only had sex in the missionary position. Actually you have a very poor idea of what sex is. To understand and appreciate consciousness requires experiencing it's most radical forms and its edges. When you become a glass of orange juice, then you can appreciate what consciousness is. It is not enough to say, "Oh I can already imagine that so I don't need to experience it." No! To understand God you MUST experience all its possibilities. Not in theory, but actually.

So you could feel finite. Because basically all the most spiritual people on this planet were born with higher powers. They did nothing to earn them. Just like Shaq did nothing to earn his size. If Sadhguru was born a regular Hindu, he's be as spiritually stupid as your average Hindu. And if he was born a kangaroo, he's be hopping along and eating grass. Your genetics determine absolutely everything about your capacities. There is not a single thing you are able to do which genetics did not gift you. You could not even fart without the right genetics.

The only reason you like God-mode right now is because you've spent most of your life struggling and suffering. So of course now you like it. You like cheats in a game precisely when you can use one cheat to overcome some impossible struggle. But if the whole game was nothing but cheats, there would be no game, no reward, no meaning, no fun.

Cause all these masters take their genetics for granted. So they can sell you fantasies.

@How to be wise Even if she's standing in front of you, how do you know she's your mother?

Sounds like you're getting too much in your head and have performance anxiety. Relax, breathe, and enjoy the whole process. Pop a Cialis to boost your confidence. And then RELAX!

Now realize this: That only has meaning and value because you have to struggle to build it. If it was handed to you for free, it would be worthless.

It does not feel bordem in the human sense. But it will eventually tire of just being infinite. How do you think you got finite? Notice that God-mode in any game ruins the whole game. You think you want cheat codes, but actually you don't. The only reason sex is meaningful (or anything is meaningful) is because it's hard to get.

What you have to understand about such people is that they are freaks of nature. Like Shaquille O'Neil. You are not gonna get his powers because he's a genetic freak.

You can have feminism and still be deeply feminine. Learn to walk and chew gum at the same time

What's funny though is that a guy will sleep with anything with a hole because that serves his survival. A woman is supposed to be more choosy. And yet she chooses so poorly. It boggles my mind.

He's awake in the classical sense, but that doesn't mean he explored the crazy things consciousness can do. Maybe he did, but I haven't really heard him talk about it. He kept it very simple. Being awake is not the same thing as exploring all the possibilities of consciousness. Meditation is not going to allow you to explore the most interesting aspects of consciousness. It's too basic and simple.

Definitely Salvia & weed.

The only proof you've ever had of your mother's existence are your immaterial thoughts.

Sounds like you got somewhere. Good. Enjoy life.

If you were fully conscious, you'd be complaining that things are too obvious and boring. You love the drama of being finite.
