  1. Astrology for men is pretty much about to set me up for retirement-no joke
  2. Boo fucking Hoo poor me, the world is so horrible. All I hear is Wah! A baby crying.
  3. What we need is the hippie movement. What we need is conservative ways to die. They’ve held society back too long with their grasping and fear and insane attachment to the old ways of doing things. Leaving little space for evolution, new ideas, change, love and freedom
  4. The Absolute is one awakening The relative is infinitely deep and changing
  5. Well, I live in a spiritual community and in recent years I’ve been connecting with women I never would’ve dreamt of landing. Models honestly. Spiritual models. Explain that.
  6. @Princess Arabia what I’ve found is that eventually the mind thinks and then leads itself into stillness naturally. It’s all a very natural process. No pushing or forcing
  7. I don’t think this kind of contemplation works unless you’re already at a high level of consciousness so your mind doesn’t just wander. You have to have disciplined focus 🧘
  8. I’ve worked with traditional Hatha Kundalini yoga for years, Zen meditation, Self Inquiry schools, psychedelics, studied the top spiritual texts And I’ve been doing this for 7 years without break Basically any major spiritual practice or school I have explored or studied. I actually have a spiritual school basically an ashram of which I’ve completeled 10 silent retreats and almost all of the yoga modules which take 3 weeks each. I don’t even have a job because all my time goes towards consciousness work. And I have to say, setting a timer for 3/4 hours in solitude and allowing the mind to wander and contemplate God with no distraction is the most powerful tool for consciousness work I’ve found. But, different things work better for different people
  9. Sitting in true silence with no distraction and keeping the mind focused on a theme to contemplate is probably the most powerful practice that exists. the problem is most people don’t even allow themselves 5, literally 5 minutes of this before pulling out there phone or turning on the tv
  10. This is a perfect example of yellow slowly getting introduced to turquoise
  11. According to Ken Wilber the highest stage of evolution possible today is Supermind. UV light on spiral dynamics and constant state of non dual awareness. Please only respond if you know Wilber’s work, because many people will just state that random mystics are at Supermind. You don’t understand what Supermind is. Does anyone who understands this know of an example of any humans at this level? Does Wilber ever reveal this? id assume it’s less than 10,000 people in total alive at this level
  12. Hi guys id love to hear your thoughts on this. I’ve been systematically finishing every book on the reading list and just got to Ken Wilber’s tomb “Religion of Tomorrow” For the most part, it makes sense, but he seems kinda all over the place, he brings in concepts that he hasn’t really defined or explained, and I find a low amount examples and real life references. For example, he talks about the subtle state and casual state but doesn’t define how this shows up in waking reality. The examples are very few, “you see beings of light” So I don’t understand how someone creates their center of gravity at Integral- Casual for example and what that actually looks and feels like. I don’t think it’s an issue of my ability to read and understand. I graduated from a top university. I’ve read Ralston and have no problems with the other books on the list. Is this just me or does anyone else run into this issue with Wilber’s work?
  13. I enjoy reading books on development and spirituality just because I find it fascinating for its own sake (maybe how you see LOTR) All these traditions and humans sharing wisdom and lineage, for me this is as juicy as it gets. I also like the process of things slowly evolving and coming together, it’s like having slow sex, rather than blasting myself with a chemical, the chemical blast is slowly coming to me and I can savor every drop of the experience. While you guys, no offense, seem spiritually burn out or bitter about something after doing these drugs, Leo included
  14. These kinds of posts make me so glad to be following the traditional, time tested, paths of yoga, meditation, study and contemplation. 5 MEO sounds like a real mother fucker to be honest
  15. Thanks for all the input guys Its starting to come together nicely now. As he re-runs the trail upward he comes back to topics over and over and it’s actually really helpful. Stuff that was confusing before makes more sense. That said it’s not hammock reading, I need to really focus and read slowly. Lots of interconnections happening. I think Ken himself is extremely developed and awake
  16. For this I’ve ever grateful. I just feel that Ralston, Hawkins, and others are easier to read. Like it flows better. With Wilber it just seems bumpy and very ungrounded/practical in actual reality.
  17. I don’t know if it’s maturity though, I have no problem reading other high level, complex books. But that’s possible, I’m open to it. This is my first book by him and it’s very recent so maybe there is that issue of foundation with his work. I’ll keep going and read his other stuff, I’m sure at some point it’ll all tie together
  18. I’m actually just now going super deep into all the spiral dynamics, Susanne Cook and Integral Theory Its fascinating but i still see its limitation. You can’t just simply box people like that, it’s way too complex
  19. Same. Semen retention is extremely powerful
  20. Yeah man the shit is toxic as fuck
