  1. Yeah, Like in Mario how he has to jump over the gaps. If he falls in he dies but its still just a game.
  2. Great Always follow proper protocol let's keep the name of these things in a good light.
  3. My cellphone for one always has problems. No problem on laptop
  4. I woke up with the power out, Not really somethin to shout about. Ice has covered up my parents hands, Don't have any dreams don't have any plans. I went out into the night, I went out to find some light. Kids are swingin from the power lines, Nobody's home so nobody minds I woke up on the darkest night, Neighbors all were shouting that they Found the light - "we found the light." - Shadows jumpin' all over the wall, Some of them big, some of them small. I went out into the night I went out to pick a fight with anyone. Light a candle for the kids, Jesus christ don't keep it hid! Ice has covered up my parents eyes, Don't know how to see, don't know how to cry. Growin' up in some strange storm, Nobody's cold, nobody's warm. I went out into the night, i went out to find some light. Kids are dyin' out in the snow, look at them go - look at them go! And the power's out in the heart of man, Take it from your heart put it in your hand. What's the plan? what's the plan? Is it a dream? Is it a lie? I think i'll let you decide. Just light a candle for the kids, Jesus christ don't keep it hid! Cause nothing's hid, From us kids! You ain't foolin' nobody - with the lights out! And the power's out in the heart of man, take it from your heart put it in your hand. And there's something wrong in the heart of man, You take it from your heart and put it in your hand! Where'd you go?!
  5. It's a really complex issue. There are many ways to serve and tackle the problem.
  6. The more I am doing Qigong, and developing my awakening practices the more I am enjoying having quit smoking weed. Weed can be a spiritual tool and it has many uses. However, I am making a post about the benefits of not smoking Here are 10 I have noticed. 1. Cleaner sleep 2. Clearer thoughts 3. Actually having to feel how you feel and face yourself 4. For those who smoke... Healthy lungs are so important for having a good mental health and healthy Qi flow. 5. Higher self esteem 6. More productivity 7. Deeper meditation and Qigong practice 8. Savings as you are not buying the stuff 9. Greater connection to emotions and increased confidence 10. It opens a door for a new spirituality chapter. You don't know how healthy you can get! aha
  7. All hands on deck. Looking for a life purpose that matters? Doesn't have t be drugs but... it can be making the world a mentally healthy place.
  8. I mean we did legalize marijuana as a country a few years ago. I think magic mushrooms are next over the next decade. The grey market selling baked magic mushroom goods has already began... similar to what happened with pot. Police are also more understanding about personal possession of illegal substances here. They are more and more wanting to help you than harm you. we have 2 or 3 major parties that are in favour of de-criminalization. However, the liberals are moving slow, and are likely to work hand and hand with communities that are dealing with it before they straight up de-criminalize it. Which, i think they should decriminalize all substances that people have for personal use. However, in Canada if its something like mushrooms or weed the government will likely only legalize it if it can control it and sell it. Meanwhile, all these street drugs kill young men and women everyday. I mean, people are going to do drugs. We just need to get them the right ones. Maybe so they don't need them. Plus, drug use is a holistic mental health issue than just the drugs themselves so its really even more complicated. We need to lower the stigma around psychedelics. Especially mushrooms the science is just overwhelming at this point the biggest thing is just education. The public opinion is changing and will continue to do so. We have had years of drug war propoganda that needs to be undone. There is billions to be made off of mushrooms so and billions of people to help with them. So, lets goooo. Note: It may be less to do with spiral dynamics but also the actually law, and regulation structure of the country? I don't know how it is in the states but I think in Canada the substance act is federal. I don't know if provinces can legalize things by themselves.
  9. If you are gonna do a substance... Do them sparingly, with intention and... Only do the Good Shit.
  10. Meditation does help. But you can only really know when you are in the state. It's always shocking to a certain degree. Meditation for at least 30 minutes I think is crucial. You want to be already sitting, letting through go by and carry that mindset into the trip. Surrender and enjoy ahah It's going to blow your meditation out of the water as you ramp up and get to see the real side of things. I personally have no had luck with plugging but that may change in future.
  11. I mean, what you think is petty at sixteen... you often end up seeing the grand importance when you are looking back at your folly when you are older. It's on you in the end. It's your life. You are young and you don't know what it's like until it's too late. But, who knows what will happen. My opinion is to wait and be wise. There is a lot of other things you can do to expand your mind like meditation, yoga, Qigong, breath-work, journaling, reading spiritual and self help books. But you are lazy are you? Acid is only gonna make that worse. I ask because I thought I read that you are not interested in school. No. Take full advantage of being a good student now because it's your education that will make or break you. You are at the age to sink your teeth into building a powerful foundation for your life so you can explore these substance from a safe grounded place when you are older. Without the foundation being built now, and diving into these substance you may be jeopardizing what could be an easier, more enjoyable and grounded future as a young adult. Focus on building skills, discipline, mastery, and a vision for your life. Taking some drugs isn't wise imo at your age. The odds of foolishness or abuse is really high. It was for me, and I tried them in my 20s. I've had to go through a maturing processes of understanding these tools. A passionate, meaningful, joyous life, is built on life long leaning, clarity, patience, balance and wisdom. You already lack those things often at 16. I know it seems like an exciting and novel thing. It's not really.
  12. No, Ying yang theory is not as simple as yang masculine yin feminine though that is correct. For example Day is yang, night is yin, Up is yang down is ying, hot is yang, cold is yin etc... For example extreme yin makes your thoughts foggy, dull, slow, makes it hard to focus and recall memory etc. I am still learning about yin yang theory and figuring out its applications and possible dogmas etc. The Yin Yang is always contextual I think. There is nothing wrong with being extreme yin from time to time. But, being extreme yin when you need to be balance yin and yang it can create problems. Plus smoking it is hard on the lungs, which makes it really hard to regulate your thoughts, emotions, to think, plan, feel safe etc Yes, really it's all about balancing yin and yang in all areas of life. NOTE: After quitting weed I went through a really really a painful psychological withdraw, Weed can be addictive don't believe the dogma that it isn't
  13. I find myself at times attaching superstitious meanings to events, objects, etc and I would like to stop doing this. I think I have a tendency to attribute special meaning to things like guitars, yoga mats, tools, books etc when the meaning only exists in my mind. I know from reading David Hawkins books Truth Vs Falsehood he speaks about how objects actually have meaning in and of themselves which I resonate with, and would like to continue being more unattached from objects. Like my books smooshed a bug in the front two pages today, and there is blood and my mind keeps attaching it to future events, making up stories and meanings none of which I really think are true. This way of making up meaning in my life I would like to end as I feel it takes from me my soverignty and power. Also, I read a book called Blue Fishing in which the other mentioned he never understood why people attach meaning to objects and events etc. What are your thoughts on this?
  14. This doesn't seem to be the case though if you look around the world as it is. Which is God. There are also some good Christian Parables that show Gods love does include the harm of people.
  15. God is not seperate from the person. God can only know itself as the person in that domain. a couple hours, years, or days a torture is nothing to God. Just a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop within a drop.... ad infinite
  16. Is that the right context in which Leo speaks of Gods Love? Ramana might hate it. But, God will experience every last drop without hesitation.
  17. There is value for the adventure of going somewhere. But yeah, its pretty cheap. It's legal in Canada which is great.
  18. From the point of view of God, which is the essence of all possibility @Tim R Yeah, I mean from time to to you could do that. If I had forever I would do everything for awhile. Which I guess I do, so here we are!
  19. I mean if I am honest with myself All I have ever wanted to give to, or receive from reality is Love. If I was God, I would create only Love.
  20. I am 25 now, so I would love to be doing my LP full time by 29 or 30. I think I can do it. I know what I am offering is needed and growing in popularity. I am going to take these things and package them in a unique way for people. My parents aren't that educated, so I've had to do a lot of basic emotional mastery, relationship mastery, etc work on myself. I grew up in a very shame based environment. I am grateful for the past few years of experience I had being an artist, playing festivals, starting a business etc. It was hard AF. But, I am learning, maturing, grounding, becoming more realistic and will continue to refine without pause.
  21. Okay. That seems realistic to get to the point that I am making a living off my business. But, getting to a point where I am completely free to study and create whatever I want... 10 years. I feel like I have grown a lot internally this year, going through everything, cleaning up my habits, mindset, etc. I can do this.
  22. @Leo Gura Developing a business/ escaping wage slavery will take me 10-15 years. I know this, so I must continuously work through my ignorance and foolishness as I refine my vision and systems. I don't know who to believe in this very complex reality. I must gain the experience through experimentation. Ideally I take only calculated risks that maybe are less expensive. I am still really just beginning to mature into all this. Thank you for your feedback today.
