    @Cepzeu you’re wrong about people being addicted to cigarettes all their life. People quit all the time and never go back. 

    It really depends on you and knowing yourself, you're right though.

    I hit e-cigs and vape hookahs socially but never had the desire to do it a lot. It was always with drinking or special occasions. Nicotine and even cocaine doesn't really phase me.

    Not as many people are fortunate to have that high of immunity to addiction though.

    Thanks, the first time I tried it I did some extremely simple cold water extraction technique, and I only got limited effects. But I think it was my dose was too conservative. The essence of that seed-matter taste is just so nasty for me

    I feel ya. I tripped my first time chewing hbwr seeds. Thought they were bunk until I chewed and swallowed like 30 seeds and had an absolute bonkers trip. I think even chewed the seed matter isn't broken down enough to properly get digested and/or absorbed in the mouth. I've heard you should use a mortar and pestle or a coffee grinder for more fine grained results.

    Watch your ego here taking the position of the teacher.

    I wasn't taking the position of teacher. Sorry if that's how i came off but I don't see it that way at all. Does one need to take a teacher role to discuss and help one another? My last sentence was just me swimming in joy of being able to help someone.

    Hi Shadowraix, I'm really happy for you both, relationships bring many blessings for us.  Just remember it's a two way process, you will have many insights to learn from her too ;) 

    Thank you! And certainly!

    Just to share. 

    I've been trying to help my girlfriend expand her consciousness as she has a lot of issues. Well we started drinking which we do occasionally and I started talking about self actualization. She started hysterically laughing and said she felt like everything was one, that it was her. I was so ecstatic. She understood and accepted the universe and felt a deep desire to Meditate to harmonize with herself. 

    I didn't think I'd ever be able to communicate my insights by talking but it seems she's finally got a glimpse. It makes me so happy. This is just to tell all of you, you have influence on those around you and you can help people raise their consciousness. This is the beginning for her and I will continue doing my upmost best to bring her and I closer to Truth. Our true nature. The divine love. ❤️?

    This is all projection of the mind. Direct Infinite Intelligence communicates through silence/stillness not language or thoughts. You are just blowing your own spiritual ego more with chemical abuse which only pushes you further within your own mental traps. You need to lay off for a while, take some time away in nature, relax and truly observe what is.

    Just makes you seem like a traditionalist. Perhaps you are lost in the mind and not realizing what chemicals can provide beyond mind. Infinite Intelligence communicates through all means.

    There is quite the distinction of what is meant by people conspiring and conspiracy theories which most of the time end up with completely baseless accusations because people are obsessed with finding with some dark or sinister reason in everything that occurs.

    This is different than having some insider knowledge and/or observing intent and motives of actions to make a more educated speculation.

    People aren't against the idea that people high up conspire to their own motives, they are against making baseless conspiracy theories from paranoia.

    Sure I’ve had experiences of feeling how everything is connected and the line between one thing and another thing is illusion. But you seem to contradict yourself when you say I can’t see that from my perspective because it’s limited and right after that you say that as God I can confirm it.

    You can confirm it, but you must undergo an expansion of consciousness. The first barrier people need to break through is their existing model of reality. The usual model is not designed for Truth. It is designed for survival. Discovering Truth requires transcendence of survival mechanisms. That includes the illusory self. You must break down the entire house and start from a brand new foundation so that you can verify every brick and not just follow what you were told when you were young.

    You are experiencing Truth and always have. But it takes a radical shift to become aware of it. To go so meta and circular you realize yourself.

    I think that his teachings are very solipsistic. He also contradicts himself a lot and these two factors lead to confusion and suffering in the seeker.

    This is why seekers shouldn't get caught up in believing every word of Leo. Especially trying to interpret it which will only lead to distortion. They won't get it until they experience it.

    @Farnaby The difference between Truth and solipsism is that solipsists still believe in an intrinsic self: their own. And label it as the only valid self. But Truth is about realizing that everyone and everything are manifestations of the same "thing". Solipsism entails separation and Truth entails Union.

    Love this explanation.

    Artificial "meat" from cells, tough it can't be healthy, because its artificial

    This doesn't really seem to be an acceptable reason. Artificial holds no grounding on how healthy or unhealthy something is. The deciding factor is how well we can make it in comparison.

    While the food department is more complicated we've perfected other processes like synthesizing diamonds which are identical to natural diamonds.

    Synthetic meat is a  processed food, that means some nutrients get degraded in the process and toxic ones can appear, like histamine, for example

    Processed food is another buzz word like artificial which automatically puts bad impressions on people. Its important to be nuanced when talking about specifics. Not all processing is bad. Depends how it is processed.

    There's also considering lab grown meat will be more sterile and have less chances to contain harmful ingredients. Most of our meat people eat is already processed! 

    Now lab meat doesn't technically contain all of the fat and connective tissue etc that lab meat does and so there is an argument of a lack of nutrients there that would need to be supplemented into it. As well as taste and texture problems. But this seems to be paving a bright future to not needing to give up meat and reduce killing animals.

    I've tried 20x of Salvia a couple of times. The bodily sensations can be extremely weird and uncomfortable but I can definitely see it's use in this work. It completely redefines how you see perception when a drug can warp it so much. You can also experience becoming other objects. Higher doses can have very godlike experiences. 

    Salvia is a substance with high spiritual potential, but it completely rips you out from normal functioning and you can move on it. Due to the nature of the experience I wouldn't advise it to anyone who isn't experienced in handling intense trips, and always have a trip sitter to make sure you don't do anything dangerous. 

    I'd love to do it again sometime, but it does take a lot of willpower to trip on it. It's the dmt of dissociatives in a way but it's more akin to being a bridge between dissociatives and psychedelics. 

    I recommend if you can handle it.

    Lol before you close it. This is something for you guys 

    the fact that you are posting this video so much, shows how Much google algorithms have your mind caught in a web on YouTube 

    I mean it is #6 on trending. YouTube is gonna recommend trending things to you. Plus im kinda subscribed to Kurzgesagt, so are many people here. Feels more linear in this case than some web.

     

    Feel free to lock mods.

    Unconditional love is a much more radical notion than your typical survival based love. 

    People often go astray confusing the latter when the former is meant. 

    We don't love what inflicts our survival, now what if all constraints are gone? Nothing to fear or dislike? Total transcendence of survival mechanisms? There is nothing to not love. This expands love to infinity.

    First off, I’d be cautious of the word “ego”. There is no “I” to dissolve. When you realize for example that the sky actually isn’t blue, that doesn’t mean the sky stops looking blue. 

    There’s a distinction to be made between the sense of “I” (which you’re not - that sense will remain for the most part after enlightenment) vs. character. The character itself can “dissolve” as a result of massive purification or purging out of what’s totally false but the sense of “I” doesn’t go away. 

    And it depends on what you’re talking about when you say “insight”. If you’re talking about, as Paul Terlic is quoted for saying “the ground of Being” (or emptiness of Godhead), you can realize that right now and that is really the “deepest” as far as Absolute truth goes. There is no “greater” as far as Absolute truth goes. How much that permeated the indivuality or the Ego into an ever more infinite sense of “I” (like one experiences on psychedelics) is a game that can and will go on forever - not saying don’t pursue that, but there’s a distinction worth making there. 

    I get what you're saying, it just gets really tired tiptoeing in nuance land all the time.

    @kieranperez You're probably right about people who are enlightened but first awakening to enlightenment is a long journey. Yes even post awakening there is ego, there is ideology there is this and that unconscious behavior. Realizing God is only the first step. Awakening doesn't purge you of all the nasty behaviors, but it's a good starting point. 

    I had the luxury of psychedelics to show me, I feel for those who Meditate for so long and still don't have much insight.
