Pop a psychedelic and all these imaginary people fly out the window, lol.

Favorite "soccer" player?

Lol, farm animals are a lot tougher than that. That horse could kill him if it wanted to easily, and Its head being pulled for a photo is the least of its worries.

Last night I watched Leo's "guided exercise for realizing you are god" on a little bit of Kratom. And it sparked some opening and expansion in my consciousness. What an incredibly powerful video that is. I've kind of gotten into the habit of not doing any spiritual work while not on a psychedelic because they deliver every time you want them to, and to an alien extent. But I want to get back into contemplating more daily and meditating or shamanic breathwork. I'll probably watch the guided video on infinite consciousness tonight to keep the momentum going. About two hours ago while I had finished working out, I was walking and contemplating the distance that kept shortening until I reached a point where I couldn't go further. I became very lucid and felt like I was literally inside a dream, dreaming the distance coming closer to me. While my awareness had just been stood there at the same spot forever. Consciousness is a very alien thing while being nothingness at the same time.

Awesome! how's it been going? Took the best cold shower I've possibly ever done tonight. I managed to completely let go of the cold like never before and it was amazing. I thought I had learned to let go of the cold but there must've been some hidden tension because this time I completely let go and it felt so normal that it was like the cold was all I ever knew. It wasn't uncomfortable anymore, it just was. There was no heavy or fast breathing, as a matter of fact, it was extremely slow and controlled like I had been meditating for an hour. Ended up staying under for 10 minutes. I'll try again tomorrow to see if I can reach this level of relaxation and acceptance.

Holy crap this is awesome! Who would've thought wolverine was woke.

If they are paper blotters and don't cost more than the average tab, it's likely in the 100-120ug range. The ones I take are around 160-180 each so two tabs is heading for a mindblowing trip. You should also be able to judge it from the power of the experience once you've tripped a couple of times. I've done mushrooms around 15-20 times, usually liberty caps which are a little stronger than cubensis strains. Like you mentioned mushrooms can feel a lot more confusing and cloudy. But they are a great teacher as well. I look at them as more of a "self-actualization/work-on-my-self" type of psychedelic, confronting fears and such. I either do them around 2-3g dose for that self-actualization aspect or a mega blast to get a full DMT trip which would be 4-5g lemon-teked, which is like a lifetime-journey. Also, it's not about dosages at all, it can quickly become a dick measuring contest which spiritual egos love to partake in. If you really want to awaken and understand what reality is, you won't need a mega dose...but they can push you there.

@Godishere Just be patient and the trips will reveal what you're ready to experience. Not every trip will be perfect and amazing when you're starting off, and you'll likely encounter difficult trips but those are really important to deal with. Setting wise I always trip alone and in my bed as I feel most safe and secure there. Personally, I wouldn't "seek" those jaw-dropping trips, they will come but it could take a couple of trips to get to that point. If you really want a jaw drop I'd recommend upping the dose to 350-400ug, yet only once you're really familiar with the substance. Things will really start to make sense after 30-50 trips, and don't get too stuck on wanting some specific awakening.

Just keep it to yourself. There's no reason to tell them.

I've done close to 60+ LSD trips alone, alongside many other substances and it's always felt the cleanest and most pure substance I can get my hands on. It's basically impossible to access 5-MeO in my country as well. But the good news is the more you do LSD the cleaner and deeper it gets, and you could definitely use just that for consciousness work. I've had countless non-dual experiences on it by now, but I still think 5 MeO is the king in terms of getting there fast. However, what I love most about LSD is its duration, it gives a lot of time for integration.

This is true for me as well, especially on LSD. Congrats!

Recently I took a 2-week break from all exercising and stretching. And to my surprise, I came back stronger and more flexible than ever. Highly recommend you take one week break every 4-6 months, especially if you're working out 5-6 times a week.

Contemplate this and you might have an insight.

I've been around guns since 5 years old, and am into long-range shooting so I'd say I know my stuff. And what you said didn't relate in any way to what I was saying.

Lol, what? Why would I care about this in the slightest, I left chess behind precisely because I wasn't attached to it.

@EnlightenmentBlog The brain is like a muscle, the more you use it the stronger it gets. https://www.medigraphic.com/pdfs/revmexneu/rmn-2019/rmn194e.pdf

You do know the UK is filled with guns as well? They just have some brains and made pistols and semi-auto rifles illegal, since there's no reason for anyone to own such guns.

I used to about 2 years ago and made it to 1600 in 7 months. After many of my awakenings, it became too much of a thinking sport, but I kind of want to revisit it again since it's pretty healthy to be a good strategic thinker and to work your brain.

Yeah absolutely. I'm not necessarily saying they should recall all the guns back, rather than put this new system in place so kids that are growing up now won't be able to walk into a gun shop and buy a 50. cal rifle or an AR-15 because they've just turned 18. Let the boomers die off with their guns, deal with shootings as much as we can, and by the time the boomers are dead, the new system will be in place and there won't be a single person who owns a gun without a license and mental health evaluation.

Because it's made for war and not civilian use?

It's way too easy to buy a firearm in the U.S. It should take at least 5 years with different tests each year to be able to get close to a semi-auto rifle or a pistol. It's that way here in Iceland with pistols, you can't even own a semi-auto rifle as there's just no use for a civilian to own such a gun. If you're mentally unstable, then there's no way you're getting a gun because you need to undergo so many tests and doctors evaluation. It's beyond me how it isn't like this in every country.

Been wondering if I should go walk up to the volcano that just erupted over here. It's about 30 min drive away from where I live and 6 hours on foot to get up close to it. The only thing that's kinda stopping me from it is the life-threatening gas levels in the area. But it's also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get up close to lava. I'll contemplate tomorrow whether I'll go or not.

Thanks! Will check these out since I'm on a little plateau with my side split.

So many of you guys still have some idea of what enlightenment is supposed to be.
