@integral "The Matrix: Recorrections." (Are you being serious? That would be next level) -
Do market research bro, even if it is a completely new area of business with no competitors to analyze... You can analyse similar business areas or perhaps you could creatively use peripheral and contextual data to come to some loose conclusions before you make the business. Astrophysicists use these methods to identify dark matter and dark energy even though they themselves are completely undetectable in and of themselves. Astrophysicists use galactic rotation curves, gravitational lensing, cosmic microwave background to detect the inference of the location of dark energy. In spirituality there's a difference between placing faith in the existence of god because a preacher made you feel fuzzy and warm inside and told you to believe in Jesus...and placing faith in the existence of god because you've actually did a ton of research and contemplation which infers even a marginal likelihood of the existence of some kind of higher power. As far as I can currently calculate, faith can [and I think should] be based something that is solid (even if it's just looking at the universe and seeing order and using logic to intuitively determine that a reality that is this intelligent should probably have a source that is also intelligent and likely more intelligent than itself). The strongest faith usually has something to ground it. Blind faith is a recipe For disaster.

@integral homes, these donkeys need to stop. for a minute there it looked like they were going to try and make a matrix video game (which I suspect they might also fuck up super badly). They need to put the pin back in the grenade they're holding before they ruin the entire trilogy (the holy grail of films). Bro...when I seen it, the cringe was eclipsed only by the disappointment. These characters look and act completely unnaturally And this guy is weird and annoying: ...honestly it just feels like the entire show completely undermines the entire original trilogy, the machines are back, neo is back, trinity is back... Morpheus is now some random, loose character who is cringey af and wears multicoloured clothes. Is it too much to ask for a green tinted film with latex, machine guns and a coherent plot continuation? (:-/) AHH well lol. We can just delete it from our minds ❤️ long live the matrix *trilogy* -

Yo, btw, real talk for a minute. I don't think you'll awaken without psycs. Like legit. I've had like 30-40 DMT breakthroughs and 1 5meo breakthrough and I am nowhere near enlightened yet. And I live and breath this shit from age of like 3 (Lived and breathed heavily corrupted Christian theology from young age and graduated to nondual leoism about 5 year ago). I'm not hard hard core, but yeah...without the power of psychedelics, I doubt a human will have an actual awakening. I haven't had one yet... But I'm not discouraged by this because I think it snowballs at a certain point and gains exponential momentum. I.e. after you have one profound and legitimate awakening the next one becomes easier and the next one becomes easier again. Just super scary having to give up your human existence -

Okay I just got around to watching the second half of this... Jesus Christ that was very painful to watch. They're kind of going around in circles playing word games and achieving an approximated grand total of absolutely jack shit. * We need a Richard Dawkins Vs. Leo Gura debate -

I have a nice analogy for the question of universal intrinsic perfection. How can Nazism be perfect? How can torture be perfect? How can children getting cancer be perfect? All of these things are ultimately good and pure and perfect. Think about it like this, imagine a man who has a son. He looks at his newly birthed offspring and sees perfection. The baby shits itself, he sees perfection. The son grows and ages and gets into fights at schools, yet the father still only sees perfection in his son. The son gets into trouble with the law, the father still sees perfection. There are positive things and negative things the son does in his life but no matter how badly he fucks up some of the negatives, the very existence of the son is seen as good and wonderful and perfect. (Assuming the dad is functional and loving). Even if the son grows up to become the head of an extremist political movement and is responsible for killing 6 million Jews, the sons father will see beauty and goodness throughout. This is the true definition of unconditional love. What this means is that, while reality can really fuck itself up sometimes, there will always be an immovable, foundational substance, which all relative "evil" takes place on and from, which itself it untainted. The sons very existence brings joy to the father even if the sons existence is mired in delusion and hurting other innocent beings. This doesn't mean the father will accept the bad things the son does and won't try to stop the son from doing it...but there will *always be that underlying foundation that no matter how much fucked up shit reality does to itself...it's very existence is perfection. --------- Another brief analogy is looking at some modern art, some of it looks like a complete mess (dark and all fucked up in all random directions) and yet it's still beautiful. This is because the viewer of the art wants the full experience spectrum of emotions, negative and positive. Darkness is as perfect as light but light is the only truly existent one I think. -

There's a new political figure emerging on the far right some guy called Donlon Trusk... 😱

It feels like I have no idea who I can trust anymore in terms of being informed of actual public events like trump and whatnot.

Everyone has a dark side, there are only people who have embraced it (at least to a degree) and people who do not (like Christians). I've seen that people who haven't embraced their darkness much have less control when it comes out (which is inevitable in this world) meaning that Christians and people who are very very "nice" (especially males) can actually be super dangerous. Being developed includes meeting your own dark side and befriending it. Haven't got to watch the video fully yet but that's a powerful title. Society has so much to learn (or apply) from psychology.

I use people's foolishness against them...it entertains me. (Not all the time just whenever they're being particularly vocal or foolish... Projectile vomiting their foolishness unto me or other innocent bystanders). I love riling them lol. They flip their lid.

It's difficult. Humans are still very dumb, your not Gona change this. We are good at developing technology but in terms of social intelligence and consciousness...people just believe whatever the media feeds them. From an intelligent perspective, ignorance has no excuse cuz yeah we can just do basic research and we have all information we could ever want or need. The problem is that there is way more misinformation as well. The situation is definitely better than 500 years ago in terms of overall intelligence expansion and increase but the difficulty is that people read loads and loads of shit and constantly think they're informed when really they're still very susceptible dumbassery. You can now access echo chambers of misinformation and conspiracy ideology, now with ai getting to the point where you can barely tell what's real anymore this is a complicating factor. You have to remember that if your someone who values truth, you may accidentally fall into the trap of underestimating the levels of stupidity that exist in others who don't value truth. Also people who are in immense pain have the water of their mind disturbed so much that they can't see through it with clarity anymore. Pain distorts people's focus.

An interesting idea, what about Yemen....Most people don't even care about the war there because the media doesn't cover it as much. The Yemen crisis hasn't been sensationalised and saturated by western media...yet their crisis is just as valid as the Israel Vs Palestine conflict -
@emil1234 well...given the fact that you can take reasonable doses of both together simultaneously without entering the warning or danger zones...I would say it's pretty safe to take 5meo maybe 1.5 months after mdma. Or immediately after. You have to just analyse your own situation. The first thing you should think is "am I likely to be able to stay stable?" And "am I someone who doesn't struggle with addiction," and "can I handle heavy tripping?" If the answer is a clear "no" to all those questions then you need to apply more wisdom and care. If your younger you also need to apply more wisdom, it can be too early for some people. If your stable, well balanced, not going through a pivotal or difficult time and your usually ok with keeping your distance from addictive things and your strong enough to handle other dimensions...then maybe just wait 4-8 weeks after? The two drugs hit the serotonin system differently so it's not like with taking mdma over and over where you need to wait 3 months per time. Here's the differences in bio chemical operation: --- AI start: --- MDMA and 5-MeO-DMT both act on the serotonin system, but they do so in different ways: MDMA: Releases large amounts of serotonin (5-HT) into the synaptic cleft by reversing serotonin transporters (SERT). Also releases dopamine and norepinephrine, contributing to its stimulant and euphoric effects. Prolonged or high-dose use depletes serotonin, which can cause a comedown or depression. --- 5-MeO-DMT: Is a serotonin receptor agonist, especially at: 5-HT1A (calming, introspective) 5-HT2A (psychedelic effects, ego dissolution) It does not flood the brain with serotonin, but mimics it at the receptor sites, especially in the brainstem and cortex. It has very little dopaminergic or stimulant activity. --- In Summary: MDMA = forces the release of serotonin (and others). 5-MeO-DMT = directly stimulates serotonin receptors, especially 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A. This distinction matters because after MDMA, your serotonin stores are low, and receptor systems can be desensitized—which may make 5-MeO either feel weaker, or conversely, hit unpredictably hard. Waiting gives your system time to rebalance. ___ 2 weeks is widely considered the safest and most effective waiting period between MDMA and 5-MeO-DMT, for these key reasons: --- 1. Serotonin System Recovery MDMA can significantly deplete serotonin and dysregulate receptor sensitivity. Full recovery takes at least 10–14 days in most people, sometimes longer. 5-MeO-DMT relies heavily on 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors—if these are desensitized, the trip may be blunted or destabilizing. --- 2. Emotional Integration MDMA opens the heart, but it also leaves many people vulnerable or raw afterward. Rushing into 5-MeO (which dissolves the ego) during that phase can lead to emotional overwhelm or traumatic ungrounding. A 2-week buffer allows psychological and emotional re-integration. --- 3. Avoiding Serotonin Syndrome Risk While rare, taking serotonergic substances too close together increases the risk of serotonin syndrome—a potentially life-threatening condition. A 2-week gap lowers this risk to virtually zero, assuming no SSRIs or other serotonergic drugs are in your system. --- If you're experienced and grounded: Some psychonauts report waiting 7–10 days with no issues, but this is riskier and more dependent on individual neurochemistry. --- Bottom line: 2 weeks is the optimal and responsible window—for safe ty, potency, and psychological benefit. Rushing --- AI end --- Think about some of these points and carefully consider the variables and dynamics to your specific situation and biology ♥️ just remember that physical damage and addiction potential isn't the only thing...you can have psychological issues develop like psychological dependency/instability and whatnot. If it were me I'd wait 3 months then take them both together. Trypts way too scary for me alone. But this is me, not you. You must decide for yourself and research. Dose carefully, test each batch. Ultimately you make all your own decisions.

Mdma + 5meo combo = slightly increased risk + significant decrease in fear 🔥🔥🔥 both together. The risk is dose dependent. Be super careful as it technically increases risk of death. This is not advice just information for harm reduction purposes: from certain research it appears that the risk of death with this combo isn't substantial. Even 5meo alone risks serotonin syndrome. On drug interactions chart the combo is listed as yellow "caution" and not orange "warning" or red "danger." You'd still need to be careful, objectively it would be safer to combine 5meo with diazepam as a method to try combat the fear. Don't assume anything when using combos. Always do your own extensive research. (But yeah I personally reached out to 5meo facilitators who claimed to witness hundreds of people use the MD+5meo combo with apparent safety). Tryptamines are terrifying, mdma removes most fear. Big hack for the price of slightly increased risk. Start small and work up with (you guessed it) "caution." Bonus insight: you can use a drug called "cyproheptadine" to counteract serotonin syndrome if you feel it happening.

I was born deeply Christian bro. I know how it is. So just remember that a person can exhibit more than one colour, the human being is a complex organism with many parts.... your like a small country and each of your cells is a citizen. Some can want one thing while others want something else. This conflict is inevitable and, I think, a good sign. It shows rapid progression. One personal word of advice id suggest for you man, don't rip up islam. If you were born into it it's not just a religion for you, it's the glue that holds your family and society together. Don't make any rash moves. Typically I've found it to be much much better to work with my religion and through it...seeing what it means, not rejecting the religion...but just not following it either. Go with your peace brother. Often youll find that your peace tells you not to reject or accept your religion. God is the greatest ♥️ Allahu Akbar

I think this Christian guy Andrew wommack speaks well (even if he is preaching heavily corrupted mysticism). Good voice, especially to fall asleep to. Christians are sometimes very good speakers and story tellers. Speaking is something I myself do really really well, it was a big weakness for me as a young person so I had to compensate and now I'm a skilled communicator and speaker. This is something I'm for sure going to utilize in my career

The sensation of love you feel when looking a loved one in the eye, the revealed truth of a situation, the beauty you behold when overlooking a vast countryside and sunset. These sensations turn out to be a person, the person of God. You can lean into these intuitive feelings and deepen your relationship with her. You don't need a human partner to fall in love -
I am, by no means, excluding myself from being able to qualify on stupidity scale at times and I hope this post doesn't sound arrogant but I'm developed enough to know that overall I'm noticeably less stupid than people who don't conduct spiritual/epistemic/ philosophical/existential enquiries and investigations. The reason I feel I can identifying the stupidity and seemingly profound lack of epistemic depth and rigor in other people, is because I myself was verrrry unintelligent as a younger person. I was a religious moron. The difficulty that I didn't see coming with this work is that it's actually super super irritating having to deal with the clear moronicisism of other people who I've advanced past. I mean like people in society, religious ideologues, dumb asses in power and generally people doing damage to themselves and others. It's kinda like I have to see the world through what I suppose I could call the "intelligence lense." There are many lenses and different forms of unintelligence is also something I've realised. I've essentially gleaned from my practise in Buddhism that patient acceptance is one really good method. But it doesn't really get to the root. The root of: how do I effectively deal with the people in my life (who I can't yet move away from) who exercise an impressive amount of incredible stupidity? I've tried telling myself "if they knew better they'd do better" and "hate the sin not the sinner," but it's limited. I still get super irritated around people like this. Anyone care to share any methods or practises they use or favourites from this video:

Nothing is inherently bad (even egoically). Like if it's your brothers birthday and there's a surprise party but he's about to go into the room and find all the balloons and presents so you fake an injury and ask him to help you to the car then yous leave...that's technically manipulation, but he would've been super pissed if you didn't manipulate him there. Subjectively and in actuality, we use the term manipulate to infer negative motivations. So for simplicity sake, really...no it's not manipulation. So if we drop the philosophical fluff and just use the terms how we know we mean, generally it's not a good idea to manipulate other people lol. But some manipulation is required. Most marketing is manipulative. It can also get quite twisty even with honest people. Like technically employing a method of showing 100% genuine authenticity and transparency can also be a method to manipulate people into trusting you. I sense this has become a bit of a word game and mental mastrubation. My solution is best, just use suggestion and drop manipulation.

@Michael569 I very much welcome constructive criticism, it's the only way I learn. A lot of this seems interesting, could I send you a pm
