Sure. But I meant, would you be able to take psychedelics generally as your health got better? Just got curious.

It's nice to hear that. Psychedelics also?

@UnbornTao, have you become enlightened? If so, do you really think that you would have been able to do it if you were in pain most of the time. I hope you understand that certain things are not possible to do in certain states.

Sure. However, what I am saying is that what you experience makes all the difference. Ignoring that would be a mistake.

Which is what makes the difference. Being drunk and on a psychedelic are very different.

I've only gotten too sober and never had a casual or fun experience on them. I couldn't care less about making it fun.

Is the retreat for those who have more experience with psychedelics? What kind of understanding would you require so that you could guide from that point?

That would be more awesome.

@Leo Gura, would you be guiding from scratch?

@Leo Gura, I have only tripped on psilocybe once and DMT. Psilocybe was actually the most insane one, because it was long and I took a big dose as a beginner. But as I'm taking DMT, I am definitely finding it alien, especially visually.

I am absolutely interested. I hope I would be able to travel to the US first. That's the difficult part.

@Leo Gura, why would those weird ones help more than others? Why do you call them weird?

Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night.

See, I don't even get what you're saying here. Come on, start by forming a basic sentence that is more or less understandable.

Well, I don't really care to respond if you're going to twist my words endlessly. What's the point? I guess you get the kick out of it. Well, you won that for sure. I proved you that your claim is false. Sorry if you didn't get it. It's ok.

@Hojo, bro, you don't deserve an ounce of my genuine response. Don't turn and twist my words to try and prove it wrong, and then maybe I'll consider responding to you.

Haha, you are good at distraction. I expressed what I meant very clearly so that you could understand. Again, you're not situated or hidden somewhere in the brain. That is the truth. If you don't get it, don't worry; you have lots of time to understand it.

You cannot be situated somewhere in the brain. Let's say you somehow see your brain live with some tech. You won't see more of yourself there and less outside. That's nonsense. You being in the brain means that we can divide yourself, that is a part in your brain, into smaller parts, which will make your claim even more absurd. It's another thing to say that the body controls your experience.

You must be there wherever you are. You can't be at a place that you're not there. Why? Because it couldn't be otherwise. It would be impossible to be at a place without being there. I'm just giving a location-based answer to a location-based question, as you requested.

I can say that I am a human in terms of my cognitive abilities, regardless of the realization of not being inside the body. To actually transcend that, I cannot simply out-think it. However, I can understand that I'm limited to specific types of cognition, and there must be different types that could exist, but I don't have access to them right now.

Human can be defined as the body and also cognition. You cannot be inside the body, but you can identify with the body like with every other object. However, your cognition is not something that you would be able to not identify with just by thinking.

No, you cannot be located somewhere inside a specific part of the body that looks out with eyes. It's impossible, although you can believe in that. The differentiation of inside and outside of objects becomes nonsense when you try to understand where you are. Objects are positioned relatively to each other.

The phone you are using appears to you, doesn't it? You must be there where your phone appears, otherwise it wouldn't be appearing to you. So, logically, you are everywhere wherever you are.

Not inside a body or any object, because it is impossible. The word "here" is very useful, at least for me, to point to the immediacy of the appearance of everything that appears to you right now.
