Let's do a test. 1. Take Datura, sit in zazen 2. Remain calm or get smacked by a fire-breathing demon with a stick

It's based on a true story of the emerging of FBI's behavioral science unit and their interviews with serial killers. The characters are written really well. You can clearly see different developmental stages playing in the background of each character's story, which is really interesting. And not only in individual characters, but in the collective also. The acting is ridiculously good and all the killers and the main characters are based on real people. It's a great piece of art in general. It's an eye-opening experience. Spiritual.

@Leo Gura What do you think about Conversations With God? Can you point any teachings in those books that you disagree with in your current understanding?

@Leo Gura The only thing that exists is my direct experience right now. It is chosen by Me from the infinite possibilities within the Infinite Imagination, or void. Is this correct? In other words, I am what God has chosen to be right now. The whole of it.

Any links?

@Bittu Hell yea! ?

Actualized.org teachings in a nutshell: 1. You are God 2. God is Love 3. Shoot some 5-meo-DMT up your asshole

Found a funny video. Don't know if it's already been shared here. Enjoy.

A zen-story: "Whenever anyone asked him about Zen, the great master Gutei would quietly raise one finger into the air. A boy in the village began to imitate this behavior. Whenever he heard people talking about Gutei's teachings, he would interrupt the discussion and raise his finger. Gutei heard about the boy's mischief. When he saw him in the street, he seized him and cut off his finger. The boy cried and began to run off, but Gutei called out to him. When the boy turned to look, Gutei raised his finger into the air. At that moment the boy became enlightened."

Graham Hancock is clearly highly conscious. Great dude.

Go find that on Leo's blog. It's an instant eye-opener. None of us is in control. Humanity is a work of God. Imagine the craziest, most beautiful, most surreal and infinitely perfect story. Humans are a tiny part of that. I'm almost shitting my pants.

When good and bad are transcended, there are no need for "punishments". We don't need to punish people for anything. Prisons will be MUCH more humane, sentences shorter and people will not be sentenced for stupid shit like smoking weed. Also, most people in prisons are propably at stage red. The best way to help them and society would be to get them to stage blue. This is basically what church has tried to do with their bibles and prison chaplains. The idea that we put criminal people in a cage and wait them to change by without help is ridiculous. They will be back in no time.

@possibilities You can't separate "good" from "bad" consequences without self-bias. Did you watch the self-bias video? I'm not sure you understood what this topic is about. It's way deeper.

I think love is actually a very good term. How else would anything happen but out of love? Nothing here right now is mechanical! This is probably the deepest metaphysics a man can ponder. So much mindfuckery. I love it.

Sartre, Camus, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard etc. were basically existentialists. They talked about these same topics because existentialism is just that - philosophy of human existence. But it's still philosophy. Still thinking. They understood nothingness but never witnessed it. Berkeley was awakened for sure. Also I think Spinoza got it too.
