Oppositionless

I just really want some form of justice and I don't see it happening in this life

You're misrepresenting my argument . I'm not saying Jesus wasn't awakened, I'm simply saying that there are individuals equally as awakened who don't have as big of an impact due to a very complex set of cultural and historical factors . I hope i don't sound condescending, that's something im trying to work on That being said, I've felt Jesus at church before , at Easter 2 years ago. So I agree there's something there.

Influence on culture isn't a sign of awakening. Jesus was the right person at the right time.

People had spontaneous nondual awakenings around Ramana. That to me is a more impressive "miracle" than walking on water .

What do you think the chances are Trump ends up in some kind of hell realm after his death?

I've heard that if you struggle with lucid dreaming / astral projection (I believe AP is a form of lucid dreaming), having some blue lotus tea can help induce it. Any other substances that can?

I'm not sure it's wise to put Jesus on a pedestal above other realized beings. In fact, based on developmental psychology , modern masters should have a more integrated , deeper level of awakening . also if we believe the Gospels contain the literal words of Jesus, he said a lot of problematic things . If Jesus really performed any of the miracles in the gospels, to me that just means he had a whole lot of Shakti, not that he was the most realized being of all time.

I believe both are possible, being saved by Jesus is something that can happen. But it's a relative phenomena, Jesus has a certain ability to take on the karma of his devotees, but so can other saints.

He's Into The Fray now Part of me is afraid he's right .

Real

You're right that they likely haven't verified their own claims , but I'm suggesting that you also haven't entered your information and purchased a plane ticket to the place it tells you to go. I did one of those astrocartography things and all my lines converged in Greenland. Now personally I have no interest in visiting Greenland, because as you are aware , there's probably nothing to it . But I also don't know there's nothing to it, that's an educated assumption I'm making. Maybe I meet the love of my life when I go to Greenland. But I'll grant you that the creators of that ad , in all likelihood, are clueless as to whether astrocartography is a valid discipline.

I've contemplated and now I am saying that anything can be real spirituality if it's verified. Take any new age claim, if you can directly verify it , it's real spirituality . If you try and aren't able to verify it, you still don't know if it's fake spirituality but you're at least moving toward a deeper understanding. But getting your ego wrapped up in it is fake spirituality. Maybe you can verify a new age claim, and from there as long as you don't wrap your sense of self up in it , it's real spirituality (but also I wouldn't even say most new age claims are spirituality, if they're real they would be more like esoteric science because they deal with behavior , not metaphysics).

You wouldn't know until you visited the place it says you should. For me it says Greenland, which I'm quite skeptical of , but I wouldn't know for sure until I went there for a couple weeks. Not everything "new age" is automatically face spirituality . For all you know astrology, astrocartography, could be true. Hell if it is, it wouldn't even really be spirituality, but science , because it's about the mechanics of the manifest world, not metaphysics. Rejecting such things without seeking truth of the matter is fake spirituality.

Interesting . I only found subliminals helpful for managing my emotions , subliminals on confidence , getting over depression etc. "External" subliminals never did anything. Imo this is over complicating. Developmemtal psychology plus morphic resonance explains the natural increase in consciousness over the years. It's inevitable .

I don't understand how a supposedly spiritual person is attached to someone so much younger, ideally if you're in your late 30s you're vastly more mature and spiritually awakened than someone on the path in their 20s Unless you yourself have the development of a 20 years old 😆

Has anyone tried 4 pro dmt? I got some on the way.

@tashawoodfall have you considered the possibility that you're conflating a symbolic end- ie the dissolution of ego that 5 meo dmt produces- with a literal end of the physical world?

Develop your mind so it can access the higher realms , I used ai to summarize your rant

Experience is the result of Truth (everything all at once) coallescing into Being (a particular state).

Try jerking off without porn. Porn will make you artificially horny, but if you are naturally horny enough to finish w/out I think that's healthy.

@Butters the human is a second order illusion created out of the illusion of physics , so it has no capacity to change itself in that way. To become a dinosaur in waking life, you’d have to dream a completely different physics, biology, and memory structure from scratch—not just believe it, but fully hallucinate a new physical framework. Maybe in an astral projection or lucid dream experience you could do it, if that's a capacity you have .

I was wondering why sometimes during my retreat I would spontaneously have uncontrollable, full-body shakes . Immediately preceding an experience I think was possibly the arising and passing away. Interesting, thank you.

Sharing because it's a valuable resource if it agrees with you. But perhaps not for me.

I just used the focus 10 signal from the Monroe Expand app to enhance my Vipassana. Afterward I took a nap and between sleep and wake my coat rack turned into a hooded figure , turned around and glared at me a few times.
