Survival is the first that comes to mind. But a big driving factor I believe, is that potential that dreams of a better future promises. Regardless of wheter those future promises are true or not in the end, they stil can be coupled with potential/promises rooted in pretty much any type of behaviour. The fuel material of the dreamer also depends on how much delusions they have to add to that fire. The only way to chase your dreams, is by sleepwalking your way through life. Otherwise, you put yourself at risk of waking up. There was once a very generous pub owner. Who made a public annoncement written on his pub sign outside on the street. "Free beer tomorrow". And everyone liked that, by reasons of their own. Humanity in a nutshell.

If what you believe, is true for you. Would it then be fair to say. That what is true, is what you believe?

By not believeing that I have a final answear to any of them.

Yep that's it, you got it! To add to that, we basically try to solve all problems with the same (thinking) tool that alot of times also create the problems in the firstplace. So it can become a circular reasoning due to how much reliance we give to thinking our way out of a problem. And complaining stil holds us hostage to that potential self judgement that we try to free our selfs from, by trying to justify our complaints as truth. We certainly do have the right to judge and complain as much as we want, but the cost will always be a equivalent portion of our inner peace of mind, in relation to our level of disturbance that we feel is justified. No matter wheter we are aware of that cost or not.

I believe it has to do with seeking relief from the inevitable responsibility that thoughts unconsciously tend to carry with them. I don't think the thoughts themselves necessarily are the imagined problem we believe them to be. But rather that a belief about thoughts as rooted in some deep founded truth could be a big influence on how tohughts could be seen as THE problem, since we can have feeling attached to what we think alot of times regardless of wheter what we think, may be true or not. Alot of negative thoughts is our auto generated head noises that often get a truth pass since we have a general idea that thoughts are a problem solving kit.

Thank you, I appriciate that!

Dream scenarios no matter how disturbing they may be, is from my understanding always symbolic in how they unfold. So here is my interpretation of your dream. Keep in mind that in this interpretation, your mother and father are adressed as merely aspects of your own mind and may have very little or nothing to do with your actual dream itself. First of all, a couple married or not. Are representing a union of two wills into one. Since both of your parents where laying stil in the bedroom. It could represent a problem that you may see as an (awaken) outsider. While entering into anothers bedroom (sleeping area), you may be present of a problem that your mother and father are not awake and ready to adress yet, despite that they are not asleep in the bedroom itself. You may be a whitness to someone elses denial, and get the urge to act out of fear or panic on behalf of someone elses imobility and lack of action. Inorder to solve someone elses problem for them when you see them. The imobility of your fathers legs and hesitation from your mother as a respons. Shows a certain unwillingness to adress an unkown issue from their point of view. However, since your action sprung out of fear. What your dream self did, was breaking a boundery of your mother and father's will. As I mentioned in the beginning, a couple represent a will in unison. And while trying to give a helping hand while being unaware of someones bounderies is a recipe for outlash of fear and hatered. When your help came out of fear, then you took fearful action against their own problem of denial. Denial itself have "no legs" to carry itself by. Denial is an active prevention against any direct action, or any adressing of a obvious problem from an outside perspective. Your mother's fear/hatered was a clear cut response of fearful denial, by symbolicaly biting "The hand that feeds you". In this case, your helping hand feed into the problem of denial itself, that you didn't see. Not the imobility of the leg's, but the denial response itself towards your suggested solution. You biting into her head, might have been your fearful response against her way of thinking, Even if it was her mind of denial speaking. So your initative to carry your father despite their consent, can be tied to your biting when you yourself was being denied to be of direct help to them. Hope this resonate with you, or was somewhat helpful.

Thanks. And now that I gave it some more thought.. It's not that surprising at all that this place is what it is. Since most users here including myself, knew about this forum from watching Leos videos. So a big part of what is going on here, is people watching all of Leos videos and repeting certain points he already brought up and parroting what ever they can remember in a similar fasion. I also kinda agree that this forum have some of a culty vibe to it. And who knows, it might end up as a cult in the end. I guess time will tell what it develops into.

Sorry for being rude OP. Good luck with the experiment, and take care!

If you imagine everyone, then why even ask for dollars that you imagine that other people have when they don't exist in the firstplace for you? Why not ask Santa Clause instead? He got the real magic Yes it's absolut bonkers if OP is serious with this post. I hope for OP's sake that this is just a troll bait post. Quite low quality bait if it is though.

More like a echo chamber, that is my impression so far atleast.. But there is certainly potential to becoming a cult

What else would a mind do, wheter it is the only one or not? If there was merely silence, then who could even tell if there was/is what we call a mind to begin with?

+1 Even though there may be a point to such a blank statement. It is as you point out here, a self defeating logic where language basically becomes nonsensical or useless. We could basically wrap up this forum and call it a day, if everyone can understand or agree to that all is imaginary in the end, in which it also may be. My question would be, to what degree do we really know or maybe even believe that such final statement is true or not. And if the answear is 5-MEO, then drugs would be the final conclution here. That would also be a good reason to either shut the forum down, or only discuss different chemical components and variations. I'm not exactly opposed to blank statements, but they certainly work in a very limited way.

I mean that truth is timeless. Truth can't be created nor destroyed, that would require time and space.

Since we are mainly a story driven species, I think it would make the most sense to respect the way and history of this plant medicin, by doing it as it is intended to be taken. In a ritualistic setting with a experienced shaman present. Otherwise, you might end up with more confusion or delusions than you already may have today. Just as it could be very confusing to jump to the end of a movie, inorder to speedrun to the ending plot. It could make some sense if the movie is very shallow, but more often than not, it would probably create more confusion and misunderstandings if skipped forward. If you are determined about taking Ayahuasca, then I would make it a journey where you work your way towards it during a set time period where you have a daily spiritual practice to accompany what you either seek to disolve or strengthen whitin yourself. I have not taken Ayahuasca myself, but I have looked into it quite a bit for curiositys sake, so I'm not claiming or offer any real insight about Ayahuasca here, this is simply my neutral sober perspective on it.

Truth is everywhere where doubt and resistance can't dwell. Temporary happiness can be situational and timebound. While truth is beyond time and space.

Imaginary pizza is my favorite.

A good way to start, is to be a bit selective, and sort from there. For example, pick out photos that you are extra happy with and secure them first. Then either delete the rest, or make a second folder for less important photos etc

Wine red/purple-ish, since it is a bit of a mixture with red and blue. So it got a bit of complexity going for it. The heat/cold fusion, from the red/blue.

Where language fails, reality begins

Yes. In other words. Form is. And what ever is, is.

If reality is a dream machine. Then that implies that the dream machine in itself, is in a sleepstate. So inorder to have a dream, there must be sleeping prior to calling something a dream. If you claim that reality is a dream machine, then you have to be asleep for it to be true. Otherwise, there can't be a reality that is a dream machine. What you imply, is that reality is a sleepstate, for it to be able to produce dreams within dreams. It's basically admitting that you are asleep and that, that is what reality is. This is beside my main take above. But there is a phenomenon in actual sleep, that is called "False awakening" what that is, is that you dream that you wake up from a dream. Theses false awakenings can occur multiple times before the person finally wakes up from their sleep. And from what I've heard, it can be very disorienting and confusing experience. And I only mentioned this, because your post reminded me of such a phenomenon.

Alot of people get hung up on IQ, since high IQ does infact correlate with greater pattern recognition ability. However, Someone can have a incredibly high IQ, but stil be emotionally disturbed or delusional. Just look at scientists who used their high IQ togheter to create atombombs, and super deadly chemicals that can't be found in nature. It may be incredible, that such things can be created. They probably got very high salaries so they could live a great life with their family, and alot of them probably had grandchildren who they loved and whished a great future for. And at the same time, these scientist with great IQ worked daily to create chemicals and atombombs, wich inevitable purpose, would be used for mass destruction of the whole planet. People can have high IQ, but that dosen't exclude them from actually being insane or blinsided by skewed beliefs. So high IQ is not the main ability, or an exclusive ability for creating the greatest value in the world, no matter if the general population may believe and praise it to be the case.

Yes. By being a introvert, you have a allowing for extroverts to be who they naturally are. And if they happen to say something thoughtful or interesting, there can be a mutual exchange beetween the two. There is no number to how many people who simultaneously can listen to one person speak their mind. But it takes merely two people speaking at the same time, for a message to go unheard.

If all is percieved as ones own mind. Then talking to "other people" would be to mind your own business. A mind will mind until it doesn't mind.
