The use of effective analogies is highly effective. If you can compare the point your trying to communicate through a symbolic image or natural physical process (that harmoniously mirrors the point you're trying to get across) it will nearly instantly help someone understand it. It can take years and decades to generate or come up with amazing organic analogies, but they will be golden and you can have them and use them forever. Another superpower in the realm of how to think when answering or contemplating a question is to orient your entire approach to developing intelligence specifically in the form of understanding as opposed to memorization. This will lead to a profoundly different effect you have when generating and communicating ideas. The best way to generate understanding rather than memorization is to literally start from scratch with an idea that you are testing. By this I mean question everything and assume everyone is wrong. (Of course not everybody will be wrong and so you can still use their information but the point of the exercise is to develop your understanding). If, for example, you hear a teacher of some description communicating an idea that sounds really good but you find that it just doesn't fit into your mind easily... The best thing to do is take every single aspect of the communication, break it down into its elemental parts and rebuild it from the ground up in your own mind from a foundation that you alone have established. This touches on the topic of authority and the very mechanics that you use to obtain and ascertain truth.

Word. K is one of my favorite compounds, I can definitely see myself using it when I'm an old enlightened wizard. But I like it too much iykwim, potential for addiction is mega. The difficulty with addictive compounds for young people, especially marijuana and ketamine, is the fact that it can actually stunt the growth and momentum did a younger person needs to grow and develop as contrast it against the more carefree attitude that a 50 or 60 year old can enjoy because he's already powered through life and developed all the strength he could ever need. Be cautious, and maintain awareness of your bladder. If you start experiencing bladder pain, stop immediately and use a different compound. Also, my btw suggestion is don't do any drugs with, or in the presence of drug addicts. You need a much purer environment. Also be aware that there are different versions ket-S and ket-R with noticeably different psychedelic effects.

@Chadders I've stopped for over 3 years. Psychedelics need to be used carefully. I think it's part of the learning curve to jump in, get humbled (whole simultaneously getting a notable amount of strength), to then do a tactical retreat for however long is necessary, then psychedelic comeback when the time is right. It shouldn't be a terrifying nightmare...Leo said he got only a few bad trips. If you force it too much, it'll fuck you up for sure. The good news is, doing something like this shocks the ego into super intuition that something massive is here and it knows on some level. Your not the only one with this experience. I'm currently doing TRE therapy (which I was shocked to see how legit it is) although still early days with it. And sober somatic exercises like holotropic breath work. Just to process my past difficulties and stored energetic fuck ups. These kinds of sober practises are probably best to heal and integrate the trips that you've done to pave the way to your eventual psychedelic comeback if you feel the appropriate time does indeed come at some point in the future. That's what I'm doing anyway.

Get some instant release antipsychotics like olanzapine. These are trip killers. If it starts to go in a negative direction, pop an olanzapine and you'll be out of the trip in less than an hour. Also don't trip if your in a bad place mentally or physically. You need to have a nice, safe launch pad. You can also combine mdma with psychedelics to guarantee a good trip. But be careful, mdma is addictive and notoriously impure. If you were to combine mdma with 5meo (which is what some of Martin balls 5meo facilitator friends have done hundreds of times with amazing results at removing all fear) and there turns out to be an adulterant in the mdma (speed, or meth, or heroin) your fucked. By fucked I mean you could die literally. So just be careful with the combos and do extensive research and testing on the combos. Also don't use mdma with LSD unless you have a plan to redose at the 6 hour mark, you don't want to have an mdma comedown half way through your 12 hour LSD trip. Personally your best bet is carefully tested mdma+shrooms or carefully tested mdma+ AL-LAD (it lasts only 6 hours). Although I really think phenethyalamines are best; 2-CX analogues (like 2-CB) or mescaline. These are reported to be much gentler. Fear isn't useful when tripping, I see no reason to dogmatically cling to the idea that you need to play big balls and not mitigate psychedelic fear when the option is available. (Even with these precautionary measures in place, it's pretty guaranteed that at some point you're going to experience negative consequences eventually with psychedelics... Play this I mean some form of fear or perhaps a spiritual emergency. It'll be significantly lessened if you take some of these measures but not removed... Probably. One of the best analogies I have ever generated is the weight lifting analogy. Relation to what you've called "negative consequences" (fear, terror, possible induction of a traumatic experience) you need to develop the intuitive ability to discern and differentiate good pain from bad pain. As I've described you're essentially guaranteed to experience pain join the enlightenment journey, especially with Powerful psychedelics. So what is your job to be careful to know when you're going too far in the wrong direction. Like lifting a heavy weight in the gym... You want to experience the pain of the micro tissues in the muscle breaking down in preparation for building up stronger and increasing the size of your bicep, however you want to know when to stop immediately if you feel a twinge (the muscle tearing, or maybe you're pulling a muscle). This differentiation you can only be skillfully and intuitively determined and discerned by you.) Bonus: it sounds like you might be struggling with some kind of energetic problem with your lack of motivation. Maybe move country? You could also check out to see if there's any psychedelic assisted therapy centers near you... Incredibly, because a lot of the psychedelic assisted therapy centers are still very new there's a high chance that you could get psychedelic assisted therapy from a trained professional for free if it is still in the clinical trials phase. In fact they might end up paying you. Just something to keep in mind 🤷🏽‍♂️

1, 2, 3, 4, -> <-

Not even Jesus claimed to be good. (Mark 10:18 "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone,). There's a bit of depth to this statement of his, my interpretation is that this is him pointing to the fact that he is God and that "good" is a word that not a lot of people understand. Perfection has little to do with subjective human mortality that comes from mental judgements. Becoming immortal might make you inadvertently behave more lovingly, but this behavioural adjustment is only a byproduct.. a secondary matter. This is where religion falls, it sees holy living as a primary matter. (It also dictates what qualifies as "holy living"...). This isint to say it's cool to be a complete devil, but it's just the rigidity of religious and social morality that causes confusion. Consciousness is far more natural and cultivates personal transformation rather than moral information. (Consciousness reveals to the mind that hurting others toxifies itself, like a pipe that has acid flowing through it...it's going to eventually affect the pipe itself). Fuck, Jesus was supposed to have walked into a Jewish temple before he was executed and started trashing the place and assaulting people John 2:13-16. This is of course assuming that this portion of Christian scripture actually happened at all. But the point stands. I've just realised I'm going in a completely different direction to the OP, oops.

Which constitutes the majority of society. Just don't go near people who are dangerous / selfish / un-empathetic. Don't go anywhere near them, don't talk to them, don't give them anything you expect a return on unless you have a method to enforce an agreement. This is a big insight. There are so many degenerate scum bags in the world and they try to infect good people with their own degeneracy and a lot of the time they succeed. (Side note, try not to let this insight destroy your hope in humanity there are many people who have significantly less selfishness who require way more offence to try destroy you. Buddhists are decent, just go to a Buddhist center for friends and associates.) Bonus insight: people who exercise radical self reflection and self honesty are safer. Second bonus insight: seriously beware of "nice" people. Niceness does not constitute safety. Everyone has darkness, if someone doesn't hide their darkness, they are at least honest they work with their shadow and control it. Ultimately there's no formula to identify safe Vs unsafe people, you have to become skilled at discerning which are safe and which are not. Look how nice this little guy is Nearly makes you Wana go give him a hug in the water how cute

I actually think this video is more powerful than usual...getting rights to literally admit that their fascists is kinda mad. When he hesitated after being asked if he would condemn Nazi's I knew it was a good video.

Honestly bro, I'm quite clueless with American politics. I'm Irish. It's just my intuitive sense when I see the right freaking out. I just intuitively sense that it might be the gender stuff. I'm a recovering conservative myself and I know that my conservative family and friends are more emotionally triggered by transgenderism than any other area of the lefts policies. For some reason, any time a political stance of any description pertains to sex, genetils, or gender, emotions flare. And I know that emotions are the things running the show. Actually it could be argued that I have a unique vantage point to view this stuff considering my proximity to right ideology. I was it. Although I could be wrong for sure.

Straight arrow news...can I trust this site? Sounds interesting. My political knowledge is terrible. I can pretty much Intuit that Donald trump is a dangerous dumbass, but it can be hard to know which media sources to trust. Leo said don't trust any of them off hand. While I don't automatically believe any media I read it would be handy to know that there's a source that is more neutral and unbiased and generally accurate than others. (Btw this is quite a powerful debate, that lib guy has clearly done his homework. while this style of communication is inherently flawed, because of the blatant emotionality involved, it nearly takes someone like him to combat Donald trump's own method of "who can speak louder" 🤦🏽‍♂️).

Because religion is, by definition, a set or system of beliefs...you are pretty much guaranteed to run into endless epistemic problems. Trying to use standard religion to get to god could be compared to trying to use a child's tricycle to travel across Europe. Possible? yes. Likely? No.

This thread is ingenious and gold

Skip to exactly 19:14 LOL

Darth Ball, a strong apprentice, but not the chosen one.

I dunno, I can think of one

Bro you have no idea how crazy and insane the world is in certain areas of civilization. It is completely unstoppable. You will not stop the stupidity of low consciousness... Not on a mass scale anyway.

Religion is like a strong detergent. You can use it to clean your clothes, but if you don't wash it out again, it will slowly cause your clothes to disintegrate. You can use it, but sparingly, and quickly remove it after.

If you clean your vacuum cleaner you become the vacuum cleaner

It's a working progress homie. It also depends on what you mean when you say religion. Generally speaking religion is dumb. It prioritises ritual, repetition and belief. I mean I think gods giving it a good go right here in this community. Is it possible that the creation of this very community is God creating the pure religion. However, in common parlance, religion is a shit term. Spirituality is better, more aligned with the holy spirit proper. Far more pure here. This website and community is a gift from god literally

Religion isn't fake, just highly corrupted. Religion is exactly correct a lot of the time. 1 John 4:8 "...God is love." Mormons believe "as man is, god once was, as god is, man can become." And loads of other stuff I cba quoting. It would be better if your question was "the most obvious proof that religion is highly corrupted and a harmful misapplication of spiritual truths?" The best I can offer is the following: Now I will admit, some healings are real and quite cool. Like my dad for instance was healed instantly of crippling arthritis and is now a 60 year old body builder and my mind was healed (mostly by more normal spiritual practises that we do here). But you can clearly see the problems in the videos...it's a complete misapplication of spirituality. It's so far separated from the central truths of the real religion it's just insane. You've also got the slightly more obvious religious harms like the explosive situations that arise from islam. Pun intended. And sooo many things. But your not going to convince them, as Leo says, the mind is capable of creating a rational explanation to explain anything and changing the entire mental map around one central idea that is held as sacred. I'm surprised I was able to break myself out of my religion. I was entrenched in it. Fucked up my mind so badly. But it has nice aspects. But ultimately...don't go near it unless your prepared to engage in constant mindfulness that your probably being indoctrinated every second you spend in a church.

Imagine GTA 6 comes out, the game is so advanced that the character learns how to manipulate the rules and physics of the game on his own, then he learns how to change the entire structure of the game, then he realises he's in a TV and starts to reach into the software of your TV, changing settings, brightness, resolution etc, he eventually figure out the tv is being controlled by you then he becomes so intelligent that he figure out that if he flashes microvisible flashes of subliminal messages every 2 minutes he can brainwash you and start feeding you his character personality (he realises that he doesn't need his rendered body to exist) so he starts to become you through hypnosis, after all his characteristics and personality traits are transferred to you over the years, hes essentially became you. Then he starts doing the same thing irl. He starts recognising that he's still being watched by a higher being (god) then continues to become so intelligent that he finds Leo and figures out the theory of awakening and does 20 years of 5meo breakthroughs and eventually becomes God
