Yeah, law of attraction can be toxic. I see it more as a practice in visualizing what you want to achieve. That‘s really powerful. But of course you have to do the work then, too. What about this: You are God, but deliberately forgot that you are. Because else it would not be possible to experience such a solid reality. And of course you can‘t just undo this, because it is your higher will, of which you are not fully conscious right now, to keep experiencing this „solid“ world - to do what you came here to do.

Hmm .. just saying .. on reddit there was a pretty popular thread about someone who found yellow post-its in his apartment addressed to himself. Very spooky stuff. On further investigation it emerged, that somewhere in his house carbon monoxide was leaking which lead to episodes of amnesia .. much like you describe. So .. maybe you should get a carbon monoxide detector, just to be sure. Because if that's the case, it can get very dangerous. This is the reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/34l7vo/ma_postit_notes_left_in_apartment/

What‘s the point of your experiment?

Start a war ..

God is of course always almighty. What differs is the consciousness of that fact.

I really like the idea of a book to be read on psychedelics! (Of which Cannabis is one). It could be part of the third wave, the psychedelic revolution, you know? I‘m in fact working on a LP that involves a live musical play, that is best attended while on psychedelics. So your idea really resonates with me.

@Mikael89 Only if you believe it to be ..

And the trick is to find out how to go from "I'm a human" to "I'm God". That's where the fun begins.

The truth is: You don't really know if anything of that is true or not. I read some of the stuff a while ago, some of it is really fascinating. But I concluded, that it doesn't really benefit me in what I'm planning to do in this life. You cannot discard it completely just because it sounds too wild. What's really mattering more in my opinion is, how would it affect you if it was true? How does it feel? Does it do any good for you?

Spiral Dynamics is a model. And a model is never really the Truth. But that begin said Spiral Dynamics is a really good model for understanding a whole lot of what's going on in the world.

@Anderz No way .. I think you're misunderstanding Spiral Dynamics. Just because someone can handle the complicated task of being a president, doesn't mean that someone has to be way up the spiral. There could well be a red/blue president. See some leaders in Nigeria, and also Trump (he's got some orange, too). There never has been a president that was Turquoise up to now. And there will be none in the next 100 years, because the population is not nearly advanced enough. Even Bernie Sanders ideas where too advanced for the American population. And he's full on green with possibly hints of yellow.

I think they (CNN etc.) should call Biden as president elect by now. When this was the result for Trump he would have claimed victory and everyone would be like: „yeah, he‘s right at this point..“ So why don’t they call Biden? Are there really so many surprise ballots that have a great probability to heavily favour Trump? I do not see it. Every hour they do not call Biden right now is going to help further Trumps narrative.

Of course it does. Isn't this a political issue, carried out in a domestic context? Also depending on the effect of his decision, it could also be a societal one

I can understand your argument about social exclusion. You could allow it and observe if it does effect him in any negative way. Anyway, 8 is still really young. If he wants to do it so much, it could also be argued that he will do it anyway - be it when he is with his friends or in secret. So maybe the best path forward here would be an honest talk with him about your own concerns, while also listening to his side, where you could also assert your stance. I don't think a blank "ban" without reason and without his understanding of it is going to achieve much, if he is really determined to do it.

Here in Germany Fortnite is approved for ages 12 and above. So it is perfectly reasonable to not allow it. Your arguments sound also plausible. You are the parent and your son is still a minor. So you decide! If you think it's not okay, then you have the final say in this matter.

https://alex.github.io/nyt-2020-election-scraper/battleground-state-changes.html Best resource I found for following the counting. It especially contains information about the trajectory, votes remaining, recent average percentages and percentages needed for the respective contender to catch up. Judging these numbers and current trajectories, Trump may win Arizona (will probably be really close), Biden will probably win Georgia (only 463 votes difference to trump right now, 7,352 left to count with Biden averaging about 2/3 of them), Trump will probably win NC, Biden will probably win Nevada, Biden will probably win Pennsylvania (Biden catches up really fast and there are still over 275,000 votes to be counted). It all looks like it will be a win for Biden right now.

That's an absolutely awesome quote! How is that outreageuos?

Where do all these persons trying to promote their ideologies suddenly come from? Have they even seen Leos content. If they have, they must have completely misunderstood it. This forum should be about unravelling all ideology, not about spreading them.

To use this as an argument to believe in some arbitrary conspiracy theory is a huge misunderstanding. Everything is an ideology as long as its not based on direct experience.

All that website and video contains are totally unproven claims and ideas. It completely mixes observations with wild interpretations. I quote Wikipedia here: "An ideology (/ˌʌɪdɪˈɒlədʒi/) is a set of beliefs or philosophies attributed to a person or group of persons, especially as held for reasons that are not purely epistemic [...]" Believing what is said in that video is nothing but believing in an ideology.

Even if that statement was true, also being a so-called disbeliever is finite. I think it is indeed possible to experience a form of eternal hell. But even that is a finite experience.

The experience of being eternal will pass. And experience is all that ever will be experienced (obviously). All experience is finite. Even the experience of being infinite.

Every experience will be experienced. Also the experience of being eternal. But that, too, will pass. Love = Surrender. Suffering = Resistance.

As far as I know it can be neurotoxic if big doses with little time in between are consumed. IIRC there have been documented cases of declined ability to memorize stuff, and overall decline of cognitive abilities, after heavy abuse of DXM. And yeah, as KingCrimson said, it can also be pretty addictive (depending on your personality). So be cautious.

I really like the effects of DXM, and you can go pretty deep with it, but there's one problem with it imo: One of its effects is causing confusion. It is a very 'unclear' substance. I probably will experiment a bit more with it (albeit with long breaks in between - that's another thing: It really affects you up to 1-2 weeks, depending on dose, after the experience), because I find dissociatives fascinating and you can go to very unique places with them. But for doing the real work, it's gonna be the usual suspects: Psilocybin, LSD, DMT, 5-MeO and so on .. I wouldn't resort to doing mainly/only DXM, there are better, cleaner, tools for turning up that consciousness knob.
