Legumes have always been too hard to digest IME. I think people get overly logical looking at nutritional value and discount how it genuinely makes them feel after they eat it and how intensive the digestion process it creates is. Starch is fine and easy to absorb for energy, it's good paired with something whole which has fiber and other nutrients to back it up, like wheat or potato. I don't have issues with grains if it is high quality.

Lmao

I heard my TV playing, and I swear it feels like the "entities" did that to distract me and trick me into opening my eyes. If you open your eyes during sleep paralysis it's much harder to escape IME because now there is visual stimuli to scare you. It is very strange, I saw a Youtube video of someone who had my exact same auditory hallucination. The consistency leads me to believe that the entities are real in some way.

You are experiencing sleep paralysis and maybe hypnagogic/hypnapompic hallucinations. Your fragmented sleep schedule caused it. The horror setting of the bad dream was an unlucky coincidence, but also somewhat related, as it interrupted your sleep quality allowing for the later sleep paralysis to occur. I know exactly what you mean when you say "you could think while falling asleep", that is the state/gateway for sleep paralysis. I had one once where a foreign voice "entered my head" and it was reading my thoughts back to me, my inner monologue was replaced by the voice of some female. Auditory hallucinations and physical sensations are a common occurence in such states. It won't happen again unless you switch up your sleep schedule again, that will boost its likelihood.

The sun is actually a selfish bastard, it gets super lazy at night and always abandons shift last minute. It has a love affair with gravity and don't think it wont abandon you for it.

It might be at this point.

He won't make a new video until he finds a camera which can record his alien transformation.

Lol

Round it up to 20.

I was thinking the same thing lol.

OP after posting his "contemplations" and then not elaborating further

I already speedran this thread with my first reply tbh /thread

Thanks, I'll make sure to give myself a warning. I also noticed it said "no denial of enlightenment" followed by "If you believe these things are BS, then this forum is just not for you", so I'll have to give Leo lots of warnings in return too.

You saw new colors? Those colors wouldn't necessarily exist on the test then.

naturalistic fallacy + gay animals exist + sexual pleasure is not motivated by reproduction (no one gets aroused thinking about reproduction)

metaphysical solipsists don't even know how to represent their own position properly smh, they're just pretending

My most listened wasn't even accurate to what my favorites are, only cause I will often repeat a certain song like 100 times when I am tuning my equalizer or audio settings. I am very serious about my audio setup.

Youtube music >

Leo doesn't truly understand narcissism or NPD. Most people don't. He said his girlfriend had it and "she was still nice and not toxic", lol.

Good post. Only logic is complex. If logic is your reality, it will seem complex. People adopt many systems for making sense of reality; faith, philosophy, religion, science, math, logic, etc. But none of them ultimately work and they have to be dropped. None of these were meant to be used to explain reality as a whole, although they can be useful in other ways. Their usefulness is being misinterpreted as something that can explain reality at an experiential and metaphysical level.

I like this new communication style. Much more palpable.

Philosophy is ultimately more intellect.

🎯 One could contemplate further: What does this mean for any knowledge of the past and future? What past events have "you" gone through? What is the "you" which has gone through past events? What is your fundamental identity, or your fundamental existence?

I honestly only see it in psychedelic circles. It's just psychedelic-induced lunacy. If you do it sober it's definitely possible to not go through any of that. I know someone personally who got enlightened very cleanly sober, no existential delusions or existential horrors prior. It is possible to suffer from it if someone takes a psychedelic and then convinces you of it, though. It is ultimately ideological, so it can be transmitted to other people who haven't even taken psychedelics if they simply start believing in it.

Yeah for sure, this thread inspired me to look up random Zen quotes now, they're actually pretty interesting.
