@Breakingthewall, in your normal state, you cannot fly. But once you lose your human state, nothing would be stopping you. No one here is talking while being in that God state, because it's impossible to be in that state and be in the human state at the same time.

To claim that you are only your body is false and illogical. It doesn't matter if it's not practical.

I don't remember it clearly, but I was about 5-7 years old when I identified with my body. I remember more clearly that I was trying to understand what time was. Also, I remember clearly that I was going back from a grocery shop and realized that I was here and totally alone. Then I stopped walking and was shocked for a moment, but continued my way home as if nothing had happened.

@Ramasta9, I have been walking in nature often the last month. It has helped me to ground myself. Whether the effects are good or bad depends.

Interesting. Yeah. Although, I haven't tripped on LSD yet. Next time.

@Oppositionless, those damn THC and DPT have to do whatever happened to me. Now, I'm cautious about smoking higher doses of DMT (like more than 5 mg) because it has become way too metaphysically serious than I experienced before. Maybe all this will pass away after a few months. But I kind of like it.

@Ramasta9, I like his music.

What movie have you recently watched, or are you now watching? I have yet to finish watching the movie "The Irishmen".

I don't think it's HPPD. The quality of my visual field hasn't been negatively affected. And I don't see literal objects that normally weren't there all day. I just become aware of it when I'm in a certain state. It's subtle. Although, a month ago, I would see transparent, colorless visual patterns all over the place. To not focus on it and start panicking why it's still there, I would just try to focus on normal activities. I would say that I have always seen mild visual snow before I used psychedelics.

I took a picture of it when you weren't home. 🤪

Lovely.

Ah... It's dark. It's good.

@Davino, well, I had reactivations like a month ago that lasted a few days and were intense. Sometimes, when I remember the trips, I get affected, like self-hypnosis.

From my experience, every human endeavor seems petty to God, because it can hallucinate completely different things in an instant. I think that it must be able to dream whatever it wants, however it wants.

@ExploringReality, doesn't solipsism sometimes haunt you? Sometimes during the day, when I'm busy, I remember it out of nowhere and it shocks me to the core, realizing that the other is an illusion, my point of view of experience is absolute, and every day I deceive myself about the opposite. It can get unsettling while talking with others at the same time. I'm more talking about solipsism, which is beyond the human state.

@ExploringReality, I heard about "increasing variation" from John Vervaeke.

It seems that Leo tries to increase contextual variation, which makes us think for ourselves and find out what is invariant.

Responses to sneezing, such as "bless you", etc.

Wasn't baptism the cause of Jesus's awakening? To me, it's plausible that being out of breath under water might cause awakening. However, people made a stupid ritual out of that, thinking if it worked for Jesus, it would work for themselves too. There's a whole culture around Christian parents baptizing their children. People build identity around being baptized. For Christians, being baptized means sprinkling or pouring water over your face with some special water.

The halo assumes that the person is awakened or enlightened.

He's ironically deceiving those types of people. I don't even remember the time when I'm watching the series. I like it so much that I could watch multiple videos of that series that might add up to 5-6 hours in one go.

I want to remind you to watch John Vervaeke's "Awakening From The Meaning Crisis" series, which Leo recommended in his "John Vervaeke's Lecture Series" blog post. For me, it really brings clarity about why awakening has been pursued and the reason that psychotechnologies, such as psychedelics, meditation, etc., have been used. Haven't you noticed that you hear about psychedelics or meditation without understanding why they work the way they work for you?

You don't need anyone's approval of your sexuality.

I love how he has built his series. It's truly captivating and inspiring.
