You can be Green and still a rapist. No contradiction there.
You have to stop assuming that Green means are you a saint. Green people are still corrupt and evil as everyone else.
Green does not mean you are a good person or not a criminal.

Lol
Everything is You.

They only call you a pervert if you aren't attractive.
When you are attractive, that ass is for you.

I'm 28 and couldn't agree more. Psychedelics amplified and eventually pushed me through an old career, forcing me to switch lanes to stay true to myself. 
I'm not using them again until I get my finances stable, have a good relationship, and learn more about the world. There's absolutely no rush to depart for the heavens.

Psychedelics often push extreme visions. All or nothing thinking. Life is about balance. 

@Leo Gura How long beforehand do you plan on setting the date? It would be really helpful if you could set it as early as possible. Hotel prices and plane tickets generally go up as time goes by, and for long-distance travelers, the overall cost would already be quite high, with a transatlantic flight and a longer stay to adapt to jet lag.
I just wanted to draw attention to that because it could make a huge difference in being able to book several months in advance.
I'd really appreciate being part of this first retreat either way. I especially value the fact that this is the first one and that it is experimental in nature.

Seems quite serious.

He was born with good genetics to have consciousness of Infinity. However, that natural talent does not automatically give him mature, uncorrupt behavior. He never developed it because he didn't have to.
Sometimes having it easy makes you corrupt.

The commitment to being Good is distinct from Awakenings themselves.
You can have Awakenings but not commit to being Good.

Serious abusive behavior is still enforceable by law. But women need to stop pretending that they aren't attracted to toxic men.
Women are responsible for who they sleep with. There is no way around that.

I have actually considered that.
Maybe with a tiny group of people.
Just for the fun. I would show you guys just how to have real fun.

Spiritual work can never be without some risk. There is risk even with meditation.
I cannot eliminate all risk for people in this work. If one expects 100% risk free, then simply don't attend.
My job is to handle reasonable and common risk, not every possible fluke.
All the risks will be discussed in detail with attendees, so there will be no surprises.

We can't know everything for sure. We are making educated guessed and erring on the side of caution.
Especially on this first retreat I want to be extra cautious and not take people who need mind-stabilizing medications just to get through their day. That is too risky.
I would rather rule someone out than harm them. Taking psychoactive substances is not suitable for everyone. Even weed is not for everyone.
Not particularly. A trip to Europe is not too expensive. Will be offset if a few more people show up. I'm not worried about the minor cost difference.

No.
Just say you are serious about attending and can afford it.
Because normies can't be trusted with such serious things. The only ones who need to know are those taking it.

@Rafael Thundercat Empathy for criminals is not against the rules here. In fact, it is an aspect of genuine spiritual development.
This is not to be strawmanned as condoning abuse or criminality.
Sexual desire is not a conscious choice. No one chose to be born a pedophile. You can definitely empathize with the tragedy of that shituation.

@bazera I understand your frustration. I don't even like being on Instagram. But I have to test out new formats because long-form YouTube is not sustainable at this point. The game is very different from when I started in 2013.
I need to experiment to see how to structure my content for the future.

Thoughts on this?

Yes, very bad brain fog and even loss of brain functions like memory and thinking.

How can you go out for 3 months and not get at least 25 numbers?
You are doing something wrong.
Learn to do it properly.

Men are not merely socialized to objectify women. This underestimates the depth of the issue. If only it were so easy!
The truth is that men's sex drive objectifies women. That is the source of the socialization.
You can't just blame everything on socialization because the socialization itself needs a source. Socialization is not arbitrary or whimsical. It follows physical and biological realities. The reason these lofty leftist ideologies fail is because human nature is not taken seriously. Men have an objective attitude towards sex. You will not train that out of men. Men view women as sex objects because that's how men are wired to view them. This is hard for women to understand because women aren't wired that way.
This is where feminism fails. It doesn't understand the depth of the issue. It's in denial about the truth because the truth is too ugly for a liberal's precious ears.

There are so many social events and spots at Uni. Start going.
Uni is as easy as socializing gets. It is much harder without Uni.

@omfar001 The devil is in the details. I don't know what the details are.
But some good things can come from Trump. That's not impossible. The psychedelic legalization train has been running for a while now and it's really not about Trump, it's runs on its own steam.
I am not so blinded by hatred of Trump that I can't see any good things he does. If he does something genuinely good, I will acknowledge it. But with Trump you have to see the follow-through, not just the headlines, because he lies for positive headlines.
If Trump manages to legalize some psychedelic use, that's good and he should get some credit for that. But I want to see a tangible result, not empty talk.

@AstralProjection If sex is interesting to you, then by all means go ahead and engage in it.
There is no jumping stages. You cannot become fully green unless you become fully orange.
The process of growth is dialectic. You need to experience the excess in order to see the unhealthiness.
It may actually be beneficial for later stages to engage in excesses to free the suppressed urges and desires.
I'm not saying that lap dances are bad though. If you're okay with them, then why don't you try something more extreme?
Prostitution can be seen as exploitation, but there are kinds of 'prostitutes' that will engage in a more therapeutic sex with you.
Sex is nice, but it is not anything better (or worse) than any other part of life. Like any other part of life - it can become unhealthy as well.
It is fundamentally up to you whether what you're doing is healthy or not.
In order to decide on that - you need to test the waters first and burn yourself first-hand to know where are your limits.

@Khron Your problem isn't sex, it's the inability to relate to people in an intimate and loving way where you don't use them as objects to satisfy your survival.
You see, no one has taught you how to consciously relate to people. You think of people like pawns to satisfy your needs. Fundamentally you fear true loving relationship. The ego-mind cannot truly love or relate because it is too needy and fearful of losing itself in the process.
Focus on working on Self-Love.
A psychedelic can be very helpful here to gain clarity and heal yourself. Then you will be able to relate better to others.
Stop thinking of intimacy as some box you must check off Maslow's list in order to be happy. Rather see it as an expression of your ability to Love, which is the whole point of life: to learn how to Love more deeply and selflessly.
Love is not about getting love from others. Love is about raising your consciousness to the point where you are radiating love out to the world and the world reflects it back at you.
You can start to heal by loving the fact that you enjoy sex, porn, masturbation, and intimacy. There is nothing wrong with these things. Stop shaming and guilting yourself for being a highly sexual creature. Sex is an amazing aspect of God! It is a beautiful thing! You'd have to be a zombie not to like it.
The whole no-fap shaming movement is toxic and counter-productive. You can't shame and guilt yourself into abstainence. Give yourself the love you need, but do it consciously.
There are healthy ways to masturbate and you can still pursue sex and relationships. These are not mutually exclusive things. Don't blame your virginity on masturbation. The problem there is lack of responsibility and inaction in socializing/dating.

@Alii Enlightenment = Truth = existence itself. Anything that exists is part of what's true. Enlightenment is not a point of view. It's the fabric of reality itself. Instead of thinking that reality is made out of atoms, think of it as made out of enlightenment.
In spirituality, we're not dealing with human perspectives. We're dealing with the fabric of reality itself: consciousness. And consciousness constitutes all there is. So if Hitler exists, there he is... consciousness. When he exists in your mind, there he is... consciousness. What he's doing is irrelevant when it comes to the question of his substance. You don't say Hitler isn't made of atoms just because he killed a bunch of people. He's still made of atoms even if he's the most horrible person in the world. The atoms don't care. There are no "good" atoms and "bad" atoms. Hitler's not made out of "bad" atoms. They are exactly the same atoms. A quantum physicist doesn't care what Hitler did. Neither does a nondualist. At least not on the metaphysical level. On the practical level, the social level, the political level, of course we say it's "bad" and "don't be like Hitler".
