Yeah, of course. I’m just seeing if anyone who found a few unusually beneficial techniques might be able to share some guidance. I’ve spent a good amount of time looking around about this stuff in the past.

Define Reality for us. Not being a dick — this is important for us to get your message. You’re using the word Reality in a unique way, so a more specified connotation would be helpful.

Nice! There’s no need for drugs if you’d rather not use that tool. But keep in mind that none of this was “natural” or even exactly “endogenous.” nat·u·ral /ˈnaCH(ə)rəl/ existing in or caused by nature; not made or caused by humankind. Books are not natural. Human speech is not natural. Meditation is not natural.

There is no way to know. I explain different life experiences by asking you to explain why dream characters in your night’s sleep get to act like intelligent humans and you consider them to have no consciousness of their own.

In the short term: I would suggest that you learn to incorporate less details into lies. The more information you give, the more chances for a mistake to be caught. Beyond that, the best thing to do is to just start being honest. Now. Or as early as possible. And maintain that honesty unless full honesty would put yourself or someone in actual danger. You have to build the muscle of saying honest shit you’d rather not. The more you use it, the easier it gets.

Present Moment Experience. The end. But to be more detailed and fulfill your request for a conceptual answer, I think that it is impossible to know this for certain. My best guess is that God is living my POV completely alone, and this applies to you as well if you are having an experience. There is nothing else which is not contained within this moment. Your conscious experience, if it is there, does not occur at the same “time” as mine per say. Beyond even that, I am not conscious any more than you are because I am not conscious. Consciousness is what envelops all beings. That is what I am. I am not conscious — consciousness is me. “Before Abraham was, I am.” -Jesus Christ

Yeah, you’re getting it. Nothing you do will change Truth. It’s about finding a way to release the resistance which occurs as a result of believing separation & survival. Your survival will do itself. You do not need to be there for any executive functions to be handled properly.

Acting like you know the specific content of what comes after death is an epistemic error in likely all cases. The fact is that this is an imagined moment which we project our various conceptual maps onto. Nothing is likely to get it 100% right, and maybe it’s different for everyone. I tend to think that Existence is far more individualized. The lesson is for you, generated by you in real time. So yes, I agree that DMT bliss states are a horrible measure to use for explaining all of Reality or future events. Why is there a bias toward one chemical group or one virtue? It’s all valid. The future will likely be something you can neither predict or accept using your current paradigm. This is a pattern I’ve noticed in my own life and pretty much everyone else’s life.

When you reach a breaking point, you will know it. Your question is about how to know when you need help. I would say that doesn’t matter for you. In your case, you could benefit from help before it becomes a need. This is the wise choice.

Well, you aren’t surrendering anything with this mindset. How do I force surrender... umm... I would say that you need to surrender to all of God which includes your ego as a very large part of what is in focus. If you see the ego as lower or a problem, you cannot surrender. You can only fight. You have an enemy. You have a shadow. You cannot fully love that which is in your shadow without first removing it from the shadow and bringing it to conscious attention. You have to love this thing to progress. You have to stop resisting this to progress. You can’t be awake if you spend all day demonizing and fighting something you claim doesn’t exist. Be your ego AND be God/all of Existence. This is the way. Love your inadequacies for they are assets in the eyes of God and the plan you as God have laid out for yourself.

I think it may be helpful for some people to see Leo as an authority. I realized that, for myself, he is dealing with a very limited system and worldview. He has not been to the reaches I have been. In some areas, he is rather clueless, but I’m sure I am as well. There are people who should not accept Leo as an authority, and they will figure it out when the time comes. I think Leo can be great to allow people to open up their wings, but once they’re open, don’t expect anyone other than yourself to be able to do the flying. When I say authority, I’m not saying for people to believe anything blindly.

Is it only worth it to ride a bike in the Tour De France? Just try things out. See how you like it. Edit: I did it as a kid/teenager, and it was a great experience.

It is a specific entity/spirit. I had some fear about if it was the right teacher for me, but I had some guidance and intuition that it is time to accept the guidance fully and go with it. The guide did not encourage anything per say. I simply had a surprisingly different meditation the next day after reaffirming and refocusing my relationship with this guide. I typically just do it on the couch at home. Sittings with my meditation teacher have shifted to Zoom ever since COVID. I do Heartfulness meditation which seems to be rather effective for me overall

I was taken into the light of Source itself. It started within like 15 seconds of the meditation beginning. It was quite unexpected. Meditation had been quite weak for me. But I fully committed myself to learning more from a spiritual guide yesterday, and today I had a breakthrough. It was such a healing space to be in. Truly remarkable.

I’ve been using many different methods for a long time. The answer is all of the above.

There’s usually no thought in any of this for me. I have discussions, do different activities, and usually am quite detached. I would say more physical activities or extreme conditions would probably shake this though.

There is no mental activity. Most of the time now at least for me. It’s like your heart beating itself. It becomes an automatic process.

Find ways to strengthen the ego.

Yeah, you can do it. Zen no-mind paired with No-Self will obliterate thought. Your character could orate a filibuster on the Senate floor for 48 hours, and you still wouldn’t have done a single thing or thought a single thought. I’ve found that true no-mind and No-Self in myself loves to live through the ego. The thing is that the ego runs itself now. You are detached. You are the witness, but upon looking for yourself, you know that you can never be found. Everything is absolute Nothingness. Your thoughts come from the void of Nothingness whether you are in incessant thought or in pure no-mind and No-Self. I can’t even say that all of this hasn’t applied to “myself” as I’ve wrote this post.

That’s so odd that salvia of everything was what you were good with for anxiety

On a purely chemical and scientific basis, you’re going to see anti depressive effects. I might not be here to type this message to you if it was not for times when I used psychedelics in deep depressive episodes. They were the most effective thing I had found to help at the time. I had the proper foundation of consciousness work and understanding to allow me to avoid or handle bad trips quite well.

Give it a shot if there’s a relationship you wish to improve.

That’s really good. Nice.
