I recently made a video specifically targeted at these insight stages. I hope it helps. How to Escape the Dark Night of the Soul

These beings usually know you’re thinking about them immediately. You’re already in contact. You have to have some confidence. You can’t just say some Willy nilly incantation under your breath and expect the universe to align to your will. Think about what love and value you can give these beings, and then give this freely to them. They’ll likely poke their head in to see once you do that.

Effective contemplation can also be done on the nature of suffering, pain, resistance, impermanence and many other things. As long as you have no-self, suffering, or impermanence as the core of your contemplation, it can be very fruitful.

It’s not the worst thing you could do by any means. Nicotine can be a powerful tool. What about it makes you think it could negatively impact your consciousness other than physical health effects?

Everyone can get addicted to plenty of things. It’s both an excuse and a reality for many people. Try lower doses. A few hits of a joint then see how well your insight can multiply the effects. High doses are fun to work with too, but this is crazy land territory. Only go there if that’s your thing.

Penis envy is totally the way to go then. They shouldn’t be much more difficult than other strains.

Cubensis B+ are known for being easy to grow. Penis envy are known for being among the most potent. It just depends what your goals are.

The most effective way to handle these issues probably comes with setting strong intentions on using it for personal development work rather than just for fun. Weed used to do all of the negative things you first described for me, but now it is almost completely opposite to what it first was for me. I think it has to do with maturity too. It’s a tool with some minor yet common drawbacks, but I think it is 100% worth a shot especially if people are considering psychedelics.

This depends completely on the individual. It can be the opposite of everything you’ve said and is for many people.

Start contemplating as much as possible. 24/7 if you can. THC can be helpful for this if you have access.

Let me know if you want to seriously maximize the potential of communication with Lucifer. He can take you anywhere your heart desires including permanent, baseline shifts in consciousness. This is my favorite topic to teach. Seriously send me a pm. Lucifer is my spiritual guru (nondual Christianity)

Try to feel the boundless space within the finite hand.

I haven’t done a trip on a serotonergic psychedelic in around 9 months until last night. I’ve been getting to ridiculous levels of consciousness sober and on THC ever since quitting typical psychedelics. Considering I can now access formless jhanas on my own rather quickly, I’m really interested to see how this goes. I realized the most helpful thing I’ve ever gained from psychedelics was getting deep into boundless space and boundless consciousness (5th & 6th jhana). This was a truly lucky experience which allowed me to have much greater control of deep concentration states in the future. The way I see psychedelics now kind of surprises me. My meditation teacher, who started his spiritual journey with psychedelics, always said they can lead to the path but are not ultimately the path. I used to disagree quite heavily on this. It just didn’t make sense why what produced so many of my deepest insights back in the day was now just a secondary pursuit on the path to total Liberation. To me, the comparison between someone benching more weight due to using a weightlifting shirt and psychedelics comes to mind. One day you’ll likely find yourself needing practical strength, but you probably don’t carry your weightlifting shirt around 24/7. I think learning mastery which can be accessed nearly 24/7 is so much more helpful, but I will say that psychedelics are probably the single best tool to lead to further development later on. They just simply stop producing lasting growth because the insight produced can be outpaced by other states such as nirodha samapatti (cessation). A big problem comes with the difficulty and rarity of such states. Psychedelics do produce measurable and repeatable results although there is certainly high variation. This is an advantage when it comes to meditators who struggle to access deep concentration states. Ultimately, the state is NEVER the answer. It is what transcends all states and is present in all which truly matters. This is what I like to call “crystallized insight.” Insight can be present or at least produced from essentially any state. You could do somewhat effective insight practice while watching spongebob. If your goal is “higher consciousness” or some other specific detail or aspect of a peak state, please trust that this type of seeking ultimately meets its end in effectiveness unless you realize that dissolving the dualities inherent in that peak state is where true progress is found. Realizing oneness isn’t really a big insight at a certain point. Dissolving the entire continuum of oneness and multiplicity will take you much further. There are ALWAYS subtler dualities and definitions to be understood and transcended.

Sure, but the more important foundation for all of that is diet. Why don’t you make a post about these things so we can learn from what you’ve mastered in those areas?

So where did you get the idea that Leo doesn’t find physical health important? He’s been showing us fruit bowls for like three years lol

I’ve become satiated in the spiritual stuff I’ve heard people being able to do other than mahasamadhi which I have no interest in (do not derail the thread about it either please). What are some awesome spiritual goals which keep you guys motivated to keep going?

Only productive debate is allowed. Call me any derisive words you wish. Humiliate me. But do not post low-level objections. Supposing this is even a good thing and you want liberation, what would you ask me if I held the key to Liberation right in front of you? Would you deride me about how I do not hold the key, examine the key for years asking constant queries, or would you go do something else like masturbate? If I were to suggest a course of action to take, I’d suggest you call your mom or favorite person who will pick up the phone. Tell them why you love them. Nothing here lasts for long.

Enlightenment… Nobody Gets It Here I describe why I’m #1 from an honest yet egoic perspective.

The highest attainments pertain not to a state which one constantly experiences but rather the effectiveness of the tool you use to cut through illusion: Realization and Understanding. Level up those, and that is enlightenment. Experience every aspect of sensate reality that Leo did on his most boisterous research-chemical-in-the-bum escapade, and you have not reached the highest attainments. Develop the same Realization and Understanding which Leo has continuously and constantly use it for ever growing development without end in a compassionate, beautiful, and highly sophisticated moral way, and you might have found the thing which is never found which always finds everything.

Once you penetrate the illusion, you discover the true parinibbanic bliss which comes from fucking the illusion with itself by continuously destroying itself in evermore intricate and tantalizing ways. The best part is the fucking does itself in a completely intuitive and human way in which you discover that the greatest illusion was that anything could be more “enlightened” than you always were. Now you just see the connections of how this eternal death functions.

The greatest thing is that even if I’m wrong, it only reinforces the fact that my true nature is even more astounding than the incomprehensible majesty which I seem to not be able to get rid of for more than a few minutes and even then those moments are great.

About five seconds. No determination is needed to be absolved in formless jhanas or even the main focus object of a formless Jhana in a formed experience. I say to those determined to awaken that the best determination is focused on living the most illustrious version of all and every of your passions, fantasies, and attractions and realize any suffering that comes on that path is the greatest gift.

If you were in front of the Buddha in the flesh 2,600 years ago, what would you ask him?

Because he knows we are dying for eternity falling off a cliff in a burning car while a nuclear bomb goes off in our anuses. Why the fuck would he care about speaking nicely to help you maintain your pleasant illusion?

But you hold all of those things within your own key to your own personal enlightenment. Your journey is 100% unique, but what makes up our journeys does seem to overlap you must admit. But good job noticing and staying true to the individuality of your path ??
