4 and 5 already seems pretty amazing. Unfortunately I'm at 1&2. ?Hope I live to experience 6 ?

Vegan awake doesn't like this post. Yeah man, totally agree with you. And Anna Brown is lately popping up in my YouTube feed it's so tiring ?

That's gold man.

Nothing

I think you are confusing rude with men with boundaries and anti -nice guy behaviour

Yeap ? Thanks! This motivated me

I'm currently back in my hometown saving up some cash... I don't have connects here to go out. Still...I'm going to be some months here, and it's getting so fucking boring. Should I try it ? How should do it ?

In the daylight Ok, but at night with all that loudness seems like a whole different ballpark... Lol..

I mean I don't need a gf now I just want to chit chat and not lose social momentum/calibration. But yeah I will check meetup see if there is anything. Last time I checked was nothing Lol kinda sad for a +130K town...

Last Sunday I entered a different state of consciousness (if I can call it that...) That I never have encountered before. It lacked all kind of "mind" phenomena, it didn't have any taste whatsoever. With "taste" I mean that usually awakenings come with some kind of "energetic" aspect to it (usually 'Love' if it's a very particular clear intense awakening). This 'experience ' (if I can call it that) has led me to thinking that whatever I have experienced before have been filtered somewhat by the mind. Even if it's God's mind! Love awakening is brutal. Grandiose. I cannot think of anything better than that... Or I can? There seems to be an aspect to "God" where 'nothing' enters. With nothing I mean no taste, no energy, no self, no love, no reality, no aliveness, no nonduality, no nothing! Yet it's alive! What if Love is not the final nature of reality? What is Love is still a bias of God's mind? ? I'm not saying that is necessarily bad or that it makes all past awakenings "invalid" but... I don't know...there seems to be a 'place' where there is no phenomena whatsoever. And it seems a very powerful place. To be continued I guess ??‍♂️

...or are we doom to have "sparkles" of God/Love here and there? Lately I´ve been clearing a lot my diet and my daily habits, and oh boy the intensity and sensibility to meditation is definitely getting some juicy results. But I can't lie to myself, I still find hard to maintain a high state of consciousness once I'm done with the practice. Of course the fact that we can enter high states of consciousness just by our own, just clearing a lot of our diet, lifestyles and work-balance, its already quite good news. But I want the cake all day, not just 10 minutes a day. What can we do? How much awakeness can you hold in modern societies? My theory is the more you settle your source of income, burn physical desires (like relationships, sex, dumb objects like cars...etc), the more you'll have a clear mind and the more ability you'll have to bask longer and longer in non-dual state of consciousness.

Have you experienced yet that sweet moment when you are listening to a song and suddenly you realize you are literally playing that instrument to yourself ?

Psychedelics are very useful and even crucial for some at some point in the spiritual path, don't get me wrong. But they can't be your chosen tool to build a good steady consciousness and 'awaken' state. They are still external chemicals, and they have their correspondent "comedown" as any other drug. While they can provide some longer lasting effects, at the end they won't hold you. Trust me I've tried them quite several times. I have probably +30 trips under the belt. I still trip with Psylocibin a handful of times per year. I believe Psylocibin in particular provides some fundamental energetic knowledge that is too good to not invest some time of your life once in a while to receive that wisdom. Yet you are being naive if you think they can be a substitute from true regular consciousness work. Basically, this is Drugs 101: You don't want to rely on a chemical to feel good/feel powerful/be conscious on a steady basis. It has been proven way too much times that it never works. But for exploration? Hell yeah they are magic. The most effective ever. Just don't use them as a crutch to avoid doing true mastery of your self.

There are some things you learn in life that you can't just cut your way through with chemicals.

That's very accurate . Last breakup awoke the fuck outta of me more than several psychedelic trips ??

Obviously there is no such a thing as a past. The past is a concept you have in your mind. Is always Now. Just observe.

Thanks man. I´m now working with Sadghuru. Following 3 daily sadhanas and its providing very very good results. I have to say again, once the practice its over in 1-2 hours I am completely "back to baseline" (ego state). This inability of retaining the state its what I am concerned about. Although I can see one still benefits from other good things from the practice, and elevated sense of energy and sensibility, which is also nice.

Well yeah in just asking man. I'm not saying is not possible ?

Yea right? And the worst is that you have to embrace devilry if you want to not get pushed around in some social environments. Specially work environments. But also entails even non-work environments. What do you do when you out clubbing in Vegas? I imagine you have to brainwash yourself consciously to become dumb for 5-6 hours so you can mingle correctly and not look as an "outsider" ??

Bet. But even if it's not the most awake state, there is a very large spectrum of states between Awake consciousness and a normie mainstream state of consciousness. Btw I think you should do a video about energetic levels / states of consciousness. For example is a joyful or excited state of consciousness more close to God that for example a sad or anxious state /energetic state of consciousness? Things like that So basically the point is going up and up until of course your material "obligations" won't allow to go any further (so you'll have to settle or either surrender the material 'obligations') I guess my question is how much High you can ascend while maintaining a 9-5 job ?

After so many trips, so many retreats, so many meditations, so many so called "awakenings"... I still find myself alone in my room shocked in how this is actually possible (that God is real). Its like the amount of brainwash of materialism run so deep that it just doesn't take 1, 2, 3, or 4 awakenings to actually even consider this to be real. it takes years and years and many many many realizations and basking in that formless consciousness so that when you are in a normal, relatively "mainstream" functional state of consciousness, you can really be conscious and accept that yes, your experiences and realizations are valid, yes, this is real. Death is not real. Reality is infinite. My life is a dream. God is pure nothingness in all directions. And 99.9% of humans are fucking clueless about it and they believe 100% in the materialism paradigm. Fuck the illusion its so well designed Lmao. But I guess that way its even funnier when you really accept God completely.

I´m not sure if there is a name for this, but I am hopeful somebody can point me into the right direction into what I have experienced a couple of times so far. First one was in a psychedelic, another time was doing meditation. There were different respiratory canals though. The first one was experienced as like breathing through the back of your neck, which provided a sense of awareness of "being there" (Although I know awareness is infinite and is everywhere, but still). This provided a crazy sense of calmness. Really intense calmness. The second one was experienced as like breathing through the "brain" (like in the first one, but more in the front side of it). I guess between the eyebrows kinda thing. In this one also a crazy sense of calmness, safety, and Goodness was experienced. I would rate this "passage" or "canal" as even more intense than the first one. Ok so I hope I dont sound crazy LOL I did my best to explain. I hope there is a name for this and I can look more information into the topic.

? I see What I said doesn't have to do with 'Nadis' right ?

Yes, but they are not a magic pill. They help progressively and as long as you are willing to "listen" to them. It's crucial that you integrate the lessons or experiences you receive from them. Do not trip expecting the psychedelic to solve your life. But honestly as far as self help goes psychedelics are the number 1 tool. No question about it. Also as a personal advice it's better to trip regularly with moderate -comfortable doses, than trying to "solve everything" in one go. This doesn't mean that you should do microdosing though, but I mean take moderate and responsible doses. Don't be reckless. But also don't be too scared, or else you won't rip the benefits.

As Leo said, once you are on the psychedelic the therapist is not of so much use. He/she will feel confused also. Trip alone. ? If you still want to try something similar, I think MDMA would me more according to that situation.
