    There are moments in my baseline awareness when I go beyond logic.

    But fear arises within me when I encounter a problem, and I know that using logic can't solve the problem. How to solve everyday problems if I fully transcend logic? Logic has been the way of solving problems so far. 

    The scary part is... if I fully transcend logic altogether, I can't use logic to come back to logic. 

    Does any of this sound logical to you? How have you resolved it?

    The more conscious you get the more functional you get, but after a certain point you can get so conscious that you will not even be able to walk.

    Leo is right. 

    At very high levels, you can't function as a normal human. 

    An extreme meditator can quiet the mind so much, that the mind will be completely empty of thoughts.

    Now imagine living your daily life without having thoughts? It won't be functional for you since you will forget to put your pants up in the morning. :)

    Psychedelics work. 

    The only question is what is the right balance between increasing your 'baseline' consciousness, vs 'peak experiences'.

    The bias of Peter is that he hasn't done too many psychedelics, while the bias of Leo is that he has done too many of them. 

    Finding the right balance is your responsibility.

    I tried contemplating "what is work ethic" but after trying to contemplate it I realized that I don't know what "work" really means, so then I tried contemplating "what is work" and a feasible answer came by: its emotional or physical labour. But then I realized I don't know what the true meaning of labour is. And so it's leading me into a rabbit hole of questions. 

    Seems like you have to contemplate "what is language?" before you contemplate work.

    What do you guys think, how would you approach this? How would you act if you were in my position at the bar?

    There are 2 reasons she would do this. 

    1. She is trying to test your boundaries.

    If you don't have clear boundaries, and you don't respect them, she would lose respect for you. A girl can't be with a guy she doesn't respect. 

    2. She is not getting something (attention, feelings, admiration, etc) from you that she needs to get from other guys. 

    Most often girls don't even know what they are missing from their partners, so it is your job to know her better than she knows herself. Find out what she is missing.

    The riches of illusion do not even compare to the riches of freedom.

    Does knowing my life purpose, soul mate, past, desires is normal being revealed while tripping?

    Things that are revealed while tripping have to reveal themselves in reality.

    I can stop crying from such love and acceptance.

    For now, only your experience of love and acceptance is real.
