So a belief would be anything short of being that thing itself? Like seeing a thing is a belief, and being it is an experience? Is that what you mean?

@Preety_India OCP and the implant both use synthetic progesterone So you might expect the same side effects from the progesterone side. But OCP Use estrogen also so you might expect more side effects from using estrogen. Estrogen increase the risk for vein clots, and some benign tumors in the liver.

Looks like I have to accept it as it is.

@iceprincess look for contraceptive implants. It is very effective way birth control , more than 99 percent efficacy, no estrogen, just progesterone and works up to three years!!

@Michael569 what do you think about cooking oils ? How bad are they? Why are they bad ln the first place? Because of omega 6 ? What about palm oil? Full of vitamins and minerals and has low level of omega 6? It had been demonized because it is saturated. But from my research I know that saturated fats are not bad. I would like to hear your opinion.

Does anyone experience fatigue or back pain after masturbating? I have been feeling this since I was 17. In some period of my life the back pain was severe and I would fet severely exhausted. Now it is milder but stil it is bothering. Does anyone experience anything like this?

This is some honest shit right here, lol. Yes, The pain starts directly after ejaculation. I have come across a diagnosis called POIS, post orgasmic illness Syndrome, but still there is no treatment for this disease. I have also noticed that when I had a mote conscious fapping practice where orgasim is coming from the whole body and especially the heart instead of just being your dick just ejaculating , I have noticed that the symptoms are much milder or are not there at all. But still I wanna know if anybody experienced anything like this and hoe they overcame it.

@Michael569 what do you think about phytic acid being present in legumes, seeds and nuts. Should I be worried about Iron and zinc not being absorbed into my body?

What will happen if someone went mediating for a whole month without moving a muscle, no drinking water, no eating, no urinating? Wil he be even able to do it? Will he die in his bliss or will his needs be satisfied through meditation? I once saw a bbc video for a kid who was essentially mediating 24/7 for days and days, but maybe he is a genetic freak.

Why God/Love/Truth has to exist? Sometimes it is obvious to me why it has to be but in most times it is not.

Are they less social, more intellectual and philosophical? More introverted? Do this represent the majority of serious spiritual seekers?

@Moksha I think pursuing the truth changes your personality trait towards a certain personality common among seekers. I don't think that the real personality of sadhguru is what you see on yt, I think he forces himself into this personality as part of his life purpose or it is maybe the end result of seeking, "going back to the market place" and socializing more with people but maybe him when he was a young seeker, I think he was more introverted.

Need an advice about essential books/sites/twitter accounts/groups/applications, but mainly about books and sites to read from to learn the essentials. Crypto-tradrers!! Need your recommendations

No answer will answer it or will even help. I have to exprience the answer myself. Thanks guys.

I read a lot about the health benefits of going low carb but still I wanna go vegan for ethical reasons and still most vegans would like to market veganism as a very healthy lifestyle. Is that true? Can I consume high carb plant products and stay healthy?

It all starts with recognition. You must start by recognizing the good feelings you have when you are around narcissists. Once recognized, those feeling now must be ripped of them being good. No they are not good, those feelings are not mature, you say to your self, and then let go of them. They come back and you ignore and let go of them more and more until you are free from the addiction of those feelings. You must develop the muscle to let go. You will need it a lot in your life. To deal with obsessive thoughts and addictive feelings. A male may get addicted to porn, a female may get addicted to many other emotional things. But in the end they are both addictions and both cause a lot of suffering.

@Preety_India becareful you may as well end up with weak insecure men with a lot of emotional problems . What you are looking for is a more mature man on the emotional level. I guess you can sense that from the first few dates. I guess he still will be romantic and playful but still you can sense emotional maturity from his vibes and the subtle ques he is sending. Also don't get invested in a relationship before you properly analyzes your partner from the few dates you had. A bad partner will easily expose himself if you had quite the eye.

Yeah but the depth and the span of the insights wil be much more limited than a nondual person gets. For example christians and Muslims will mostly ignore the nothing and infinity aspects of God and will focus more on love. Also, they mostly will keep a separation between them and God and will deny that they are God until if they reach very deep states that they starts to doubt the assumption they made.

@neutralempty I don't wnat to have deficiency in Iron/ vitamin b12 from going full vegan. In my country almost no one is vegan or even vegetarian so there are no products for vegan diet and I still need a good source of protein so I cannot take eggs off the list.

@Yarco From my experiencE SSRIs offer a 20-30 percent symptoms relief only. I must have gone with psychedelics from the beginning. SSRIs Don't address the root issues for your mental illness which is usually deep dysfunctional thoughts. . Bear in mind that going with psychedelic route will be tricker and more dangerous but If you are wise enough you will know how handle it.

Despite taking 500 mg of L theanine, I failed to notice any calming symptoms despite occasionally mild results here and there that might even be explained by placebo effect. Is this the case for you? I am on SSRIs so this might be the cause,IDK.

@lmfao thanks, good luck to you too.

@lmfao I stopped taking the medication at the last 20 mg. That was my mistake, I should have gone extra slowly at the end. I guess I will just push through it. I need to be off the medication to take psychedelics. So I know it is woth it. I will gave my brain extra 2-3 weeks to reestablish normal neurotransmitters function then it is acid time.

@lmfao I was on paroxitine 50 mg. I decreased the dose by 10 mg every week for three weeks and then decided to stop taking the last 20 mg all together. I didn't know that withdrawal symptoms would be this severe. The shorter the half life of the drug, the worst. Paroxitine has the shortest half life ??

@Michael569 What about rice? It is pure carbohydrates right? Any alternatives you suggest? @Michael569 @Michael569
