@Roy any tips more hygiene related. Like you’ll I scrub my face and how often etc.?

Then, how can I love my self?

@Lyubov thank you

@Derek White it does mean a lot. For USA standards what is happening now is radical. Comparing today’s USA situation with an already violent and anarchistic country and concluding its normal is irrelevant

What you guys think of this? on one side I think it’s good but I feel like it will defeat the purpose as part of the teaching is to get through the bad. No trip is 100% sugar coated. https://newatlas.com/science/lsd-off-switch-mindmed-liechti-psychedelic-science/ @Leo Gura maybe you want to comment on this

I feel like wether the pandemic is a government hoax or it is truly a natural disaster or wether it is as serious as news say or not I feel like it helped to unmask the government’s true face and intentions, as well for individual. It is helping people really on each other and unite them. Maybe help people turn against government/companies abuses and giving them anger to protest. Maybe in this early stage of the contingency it’s hard to protest but as governments start to impose harsher laws and invading privacy people will now truly get fed up , and now everyone.

@Leo Gura So you say people thinking about conspiracy and this being a hoax is an ego mechanism. Could there be any thing good coming out of this situation regarding consciousness?

I’ll give you a little bit of context: I’m male, 19, divorced parents since very little (probably when I was 5). I stayed with my mother, my father disappeared form our lives (he still alive though). My mother she has Avery dominant personality but as in that kind of imposing personality that comes from lack of confidence, resulting in an abusive behavior. She is very explosive and gets angry impossibly easy. Always shouting and fighting with cashiers, employees, or really anyone who does something she doesn’t agree with. From conversations we’ve had about her childhoods and not so young past, she feels neglected by her parents and really felt out of control as my grandparents had a favorite child and it wasn’t her. She was a perfect example of a middle child. She has a cousin which my grandparent really cares for and I feel my mother gets very jealous, it is a very touchy subject. The struggle for acceptance, plus the divorce many other smaller problems made her have a really troubled and mistrusting personality. I feel like she lashes out and takes out this on people, specially me (because she knows she can’t fight to much with stranger cause they can fight back). She is extremely manipulating with me and always emotionally blackmailing me, at the same time she is overly overprotective and doesn’t trust me at all, even though I’ve been quite a good son (you’ve gonna have to trust me on this one) I know I’m no perfect son, but who is anyways. I consider my self on the more responsible spectrum of kids my age. For me this has resulted in a very insecure person. Through out the years (after I started to realize how my mothers way of rising me affected me) I started to seek help online (no personal coaching though) and I believe I did a pretty job of fixing my insecurities. Now I have a girlfriend and a couple of very close friends, many more that aren’t so close, I’m very healthy physically and mentally. I like studying subjects like spirituality, health, music, cooking, physics etc. (Basically I’m a healthy normal person now) however the abuse continues (and continues to get worse as she grows old and even more intolerant). And us trapped at home because of the COVID really took problems next level. I’m only looking forward to moving out for college to escape her. The main two reasons I want to study away is to get away from her and cause schools aren’t really that good here. And it’s sat thinking about how I need to distance my self to keep her from hurting me. I don’t think there’s been a single day we didn’t fight (this is serious). Ind I’m fed up with let her step over me but I need help figuring out a way to manage this situation maturely and effectively. Now, you’ve gotta consider I’m still financially attached to her (things work differently in my country regarding this, kids rely on parents for money until much later) and I know first things first I have to solve that to cut her off, but meanwhile what can I do? very important, there never was physical abuse from either parent . Maybe there was I’m my mind is blocking it if but I doubt it. To my knowledge there was none.

Exactly, basically all there is to do is wait it out and if necessary treat symptoms (when virus sick). btw what you thing about this: https://www.globalresearch.ca/coronavirus-causes-effects-real-danger-agenda-id2020/5706153 its a bit intense but there must be some truth in it (unfortunately, I guess) I don’t know what’s worse, if this was an actual pandemic or a government construct to control us. Or mix

What you guys think of this/think I should do? iv been with a girl, she has a long time boyfriend, but out friendship is exponentially growing into a potential romance. Our interactions at at the point I’m starting to feel some jealousy from the boyfriend. The girl and I we really have a thing. I can feel she tones everything down a few notches when her boyfriend pops around (physical contact etc). So I have to make a decision; wether a) I proceed and most probably end up having something with her. Which I assume will destabilize her relationship but, a part of says that if her relationship was so great and fulfilling she wouldn’t be looking for something else b) stay away, which rather not but I don’t want to mess with her emotions and have her getting hurt. i

@Meetjoeblack well, that’s precisely the question. I m debating whether to do it or not. Remember she is in a long lasting relationship. If you met a girl but she is happily with a boyfriend (or at least that’s what it seems, you don’t really know) and you become friends of her, really good, intimate caring friends and you know it will theoretically work would yo do it and how? . I can read the signs. If she was single I would move more intensively. But she has her boyfriend and seems quite loyal to him. Maybe she really loves him, or she doesn’t want to be labeled a slut by ditching him form me I don’t know.

What do you mean?

@PlayOnWords not as active as it could be. How do you suggest I work on this?

my father was sending me to a trip with some friends(he’s not going). Everything is paid for and there really is no way to gat money back. This was paid and planned like 4 months ago. Recently I got extremely sick from the lungs. I’ve been on some medication. Also there are some money problems in the family. So I decided to not go to the trip even though it’s paid for because it’s an extremely cold climate and I’ll get even worse and I don’t want to spend more money on the trip as we can’t afford it (but my father says not to worry) this plus some other problems like missing many days of school, and I’m bout to date someone and missing out so many days is going to turn cold out thing. My father got really angry calling me ungrateful among other things. He won’t understand I don’t want him to spend money we don’t have on the trip, plus I’m really very sick and the cold won’t help. I starting o think I should go just to keep him calm. He even started to cry when I said it wasn’t a good idea to go. Only like 1000 dollars would be lost (from hotels and planes) what do you think I should do? I really feel like I shouldn’t go, it isn’t that big of a deal, but is it with it having a real really big fight with my father? Sorry for the low consciousness questions but this is a great and loving community always willing to help ❤️

Picking back up the subject. I’ve actually become kind of friends with her boyfriend and I’ve decided that unless some major situation allows for her to dump him and for me to move in it’s not worth it damaging her reputation(she may start getting called a slut or something like that) we are friends and I do care for her . So maybe I’ll just stick around as friends and be ready for when she is available. In a couple months her boyfriend is moving to study in a another state and her and I stay in the same town, so maybe then. Of course I won’t wait for ever but I think in this case it’s worth the small waiting. Only a couple months and I dint hurt her or myself. And I give time for them to get closure properly. She says they won’t last long being apart. I don’t know what you guys think

@Leo Gura yeah, you are probably right. You got me thinking . After my some psychedelic trips I experienced a huge , ginormous ego backlash. I really am having trouble getting back on track, in all aspects: nutrition, meditation, etc. It feels almost as if I was starting from scratch. I think you can see it in this post thread. could you make a video for people who are just starting (or at finding them self out of track) to help the chick start ? I know your way past that but you’ve got a lot of new viewers and all the new content and knowledge could be integrated in this video. I’ve seen it, I’ve recommend the channel to varios friends whom seem genuinely interested but got intimidated by the newer topics. im so sorry if this looks to low conscious for your time, I know you would rather do ever more complex videos but I believe helping the new comers or the fallen ones (hehe) would really really be of help.

@Leo Gura well, at least that’s what I see. In past experiences I could see how my mind was trying to convince itself that this romance was going on, just as you say. But this time (I know it sound like everyone else) it is unfolding differently. How I’m i going to find out anyways if it’s not by keeping moving forward.

Why would you say that?

@TrynaBeTurquoise I feel our connection is quite deep. I do believe I would be willing to be with her for a long time , even imagining the physical attraction phase fading away, I think her personality is quite enough. in regards of her current relationship, I’m not taking it as a task to dissolve it, but I’m trying to figure out if it would be truly wrong to be the cause of their breakup or something like that. Of course their eventually breakup, and I don’t see that as permission to violently intervene and steal her but I mean, it’s just a temporary romance high school type of deal she’s going through. I think taking our connection a little deeper just to explore would help us both realize weather disrupting her relationship is worth it.

@Gili Trawangan is not the cheating that I’m so worried about. I don’t know if I would bare disrupting their relationship. If I should keep taking it further

How can I use psychedelics for dealing/ treating addictions. I find that after a trip, the next couple of days I feel totally free from addictions like mastrurbation, porn, junk food, tv and all superficial activities, but mainly because I’m not in the mood because of the intensity of the trip, I’m still graying to soak it all in but after a week or so these bad habits start to crawl back. How can I focus the psychedelics to treat the addictions. Maybe something I do during the trip or before I don’t know. Or some practices I can do aside that work in conjunction with the psychs for the addiction problems

I’ve been experimenting with LSD, and I’ve been getting great insight and all of that but un this las trip I was really able to see how the ego creates the life story and how it pulls the focus away to keep it self from discovering the tru nature and this is because a felt how my true self (no self I guess) was graying to discover itself but the ego tricks keep fiercely opposing this breakthrough. I felt I understood the nature of this but I didn’t quite get the ego death. I still identified as me, although a very distorted sense of self at this point but still a sense of self. This is the second time I can’t get a full breakthrough. This was on 100ug. How can I go full ego death nex time. How can I calm down the ego until it fully extinguishes? also, from all the research I’ve done I feel like this was an unusually profound and embodying trip for 100ug, I think it might even be comparable to what people ma experience on DMT. What do you think

@SriBhagwanYogi to help trigger the ego death?
