  1. I'll definitely read it if I remember.
  2. Enlinghtenment works by emptying your subconscious through heightened states of consciousness. During the process you're gonna hallucinate but as time goes on the hallucinations are gonna deplete.
  3. Start weightlifting, that way your love for food Is a good thing, not bad.
  4. Since you didn't read it - slowlane refers to working and saving money. You can't get rich that way. Not to actual business that might or might not take time.
  5. According to Castaneda's books there's a chance you'd get stuck in a new reality forever. Or on the other hand you could just change forms for thousands of years like some of the old shamans supposedly do.
  6. So if you can live an entire alternate life time with normal salvia how many lifetimes would you experience with this haha
  7. It works, in rare cases though, I didn't believe in any of this stuff at 16 and it's how I had my first awakening. A pretty seriously life altering one at that.
  8. Not smearing me for 5 months, just once or twice. The rest of it is pretty accurate.
  9. I was talking to a psychiatrist every week, but no formal reevaluation as far as I know. Maybe once when a judge advocate came.
  10. I think my parents smeared me to someone who gave them information about "my mental state". I have no idea how this works internally.
  11. The court's order. It hugely depends what kind and degree of awakening we are talking about. Heavy kasina practice always causes hallucinations (although controlled) . The Buddha must've done some kasina too. High enough dose of Vipassana too. Specificially after you've already had fruitions weird shit is going to happen. Even something as low level as an OBE can get you a diagnosis. Just trip and come down? Sure, that won't get you a diagnosis. - My brother called them out of spite. - Daniel Ingram has probably had more hallucinations than me. The only reason he doesn't end up in a psych ward is that he surrounds himself with understanding people.
  12. I was commited for five months. I've been out for about 8 months.
  13. Erratic behavior like dissapearing for a day and not telling my parents where I was (I was actually tripping on LSD). I've had hallucinations but they had no knowledge of that, so it's irrelevant for the diagnosis. They also wrote nothing such like having hallucinations in the report. Imagine I told them I literally put my hand through a wall on acid (which I may or may not have done, it was in the dark so my depth perception might have been just altered). Other was just my parents telling them I thought I had siddhis (I used to be pretty open about the fact I have some since my parents are spiritual too and know that this is real). Basically, according to the symptoms they know of I should not have a diagnosis. Old, original Buddhism (according to the Vimmutimagga and Visudhimagga) was full of things like mind reading etc. And specificially the kasina practices they all have done is basically just a safe way to develop meaningful hallucinations mixed with high concentration. All these people would end up in psychiatrist "care" today.
  14. They literally said one of my symptoms was doing multi day fasts.
  15. A psychiatrist would diagnose the Buddha as a schizophrenic. Don't worry about it!
  16. I bought the book but I can't get it to my damn e-reader...
  17. I started reading that one not too long ago too.
  18. Usually loans only get approved for those who have a job. Do you have a job?
  19. If you are seriously psychotic psychiatrists will lobotomize you. I've seen it in my stay at the psychward. Even electro shock "therapy" is still legal.
  20. What's obvious is that it was written by a highly conscious individual if you read it while tripping.
  21. Unfortunately we don't know all the exact substances he used. I have shifted my assemblage point on lsd though. (I literally went to a different version of my city). His books are more like a tool to do what the old shamans did. Not everything is literal. I heard he did a shit ton of lsd too.
  22. ICE is shit though.
  23. OMAD. Eat in a 1 hour window.
  24. Just when I started reading meta rationality.
