I mean if you look at it holistically I think death penalty makes sense in severe cases. Basically all of the ressources that go into these criminals could be used to help society. Just think about if you saved all of the money of a criminal who was 40 years in prison and put it all in the healthcare system… You might even save more lifes that way lol. Also they could still be a threat to other people in prison or when they get out after x number of years.. So rationally im kinda for death penalty. But not emotionally. I dont know maybe its stage green energy or maybe there is something wrong with it in principle that I dont see. Also the fact that 4% of death penalty are wrong is pretty high. On the other hand 4% of 0.00..% is really low. Idk I am conflicted.

Can’t tell if I don’t know the details. There is probably a case where manipulation is the right decision but I don’t know if that’s the case here. Idk I think you should trust your child. If you are REALLY serious about it and tell your child the potential consequences of what could happen then I think your child would listen. I mean there are probably some psychopath children plus I am not a parent but deep down I feel like you should trust your child. Do you feel like you could confront other people if you had to ?

@Jake Chambers At least you don’t have to experience the growing retardation of society. ? I hope Leo could get you some hope. Seriously man, many people learned to accept death with psychedelics. Much love ♥️

I had the same thoughts recently and I came to a similar conclusion. If I don’t act at least a bit devilish then I will act my devil out unconsciously to get what I want which will lead to way more harm. Having a nice guy ego can be pretty dangerous. You might justify much of your behavior by saying it was out of good intention. See that sounds pretty devilish to me. I don’t see why you have to cause fear to get attention and why do you even think that what you have to say is that important that it justifies that you manipulate people? Have you integrated your shadow? Would you allow yourself to be angry? Many people who do fighting sport for example are the most peaceful people ever exactly because they know they could defend themself so they don’t feel the need to manipulate people to never come into conflict. I think I understand you pretty well. I had build a similar identity about being a nice guy.

Almost sober mystical experience: I really felt like how little of a grib my ego had on me this evening it was really nice. I couldnt sleep, I had to much energy. Something dragged me awake here and then. It were flashbacks from my recent truffles trip where I got into mystical experience territory. Also all of the spiritual concepts worked through me. Then suddenly my whole field of vision turned pitch black. I mean it was black before but now I got catapulted from my thoughts into that black field. I lost almost all grounding of reality. My sense as the viewer of all of that just hang on an incredible thin string. I tried to let go of that and I felt how my remaining Sense of self desperately defended itself and by doing that turned my eyes almost completly backwards. It managed to win but I didnt even care that much. A short time after that I was still awake and tried to reach that state again as I didnt want to get such a rare high consciousnis state get wasted. I invisioned how it would feel like to be without an ego. I managed to invision that state really clearly and tried to make a really clear path towards it by systemetically detatching from everything that I thought was me (bodymind..). Then my ego backlashed and showed me in a short swang all of my attatchments I had to let go off if I wanted to go to that state. It were like 6 (gf, theater, Family, Sense of self, … ). I pushed myself and said yes its okay I want to let go of all of that. My ego was battling super hard again and my almost turned backwards again. But again my ego succeded. Shortly after that I heard the Sound of the Alarm. I had to get ready for work :).

@Kamo thanks I will try it out! @OBEler , @Carl-Richard thanks I will try to get my hands on one of them if plugging doesn’t work.

Yeah I think you guys are right. I had my little fantasy where people come together and find meaning in supporting each other. People finding new appreciation for what they already have and by all of that the environment gets saved in the background because people can’t afford stuff that destroys the environment. Guess there are a lot more complications then I thought, thanks for clearing that up.

I only tried Atlantis which works great but maybe others are better. Just got other variants which I will try out for microdosing. I would try it out a couple of times for yourself before you go to a therapist to see how your behaviour changes. For example I become more like a playful but naive child not thinking to far into the future. I am also way more likely to take risks. Its good to know that about you so you can actively adapt your behaviour.

https://youtu.be/qL_5EksSDIU Haven’t seen the Simpsons in a long time but this got recommended to me on YouTube. What is wrong with Ned Flenders and What would be your advise to him? It might sound a bit ridiculous but I am actually not super certain what is wrong with him which kind of shocked me. I definetly have parts of myself that are stuck in stage blue and this is exactly the material I have to work on to transcend blue. My thoughts so far: Ned Flanders lives by principle and not by his authentic intentions. He isn’t nice to everybody because he wants to express his love to everybody but because he has build an ego of a saint and wants to maintain it. He should become conscious of that fact and then what ? The problem is that Ned Flanders is ultimately right or at least acting like a highly developed person on the surface but for the wrong reasons because he acts out of fear and not out of love. So should he act more authentically and loose most of his "saint like“ qualities and then regain them when he acts them out naturally out of a higher state consciousness?

For me its the opposite with magic truffles. I just need a mirco dose and I light up and get super in touch with my emotions. I could also see how a psychologist could be super helpful while tripping because they can direct the trip. But of course it has to be with consent.

That’s a good point. But I don’t know how many people are actually getting more or less support regarding the economic situation. I mean do we spend a shitton of money into third world countries all of a sudden when the economy does well? No we buy ourselves a bigger car. But we do spend some more money for people in need in our own country when we can afford that.

But in general it makes people more conservative with their money and hinders the economic growth right? Although with that logic taking a big credit would be a wise thing to do. I am kinda confused.

@Identity If you want a fighting sport where you don’t hurt yourself or others that much you could do wrestling.

Yes. But the problem is that he is right in some sense. People are really trying their best and when they act devilish they just act out of fear and stuff like that so his good reaction to all of that would be a lot better then normal peoples reaction IF it was authentic. So my conclusion so far is that he should integrate his shadow which would make him less "good“ on the surface but actually would make him more of a balanced person, closer to truth and love and without the risk of him exploding like a volcano all of the sudden or his unconscious mind developing sneaky devil tactics to get him what he wants which he wouldn’t allow himself in a conscious state.

Your direct experience is the only thing that is absolutely true. It is true because you can’t deny it. You can’t deny what is already happening. Everything else is second order truth. It’s something that is true inside the dream. So an "objective fact“ is second order truth also and so is death. What is death really for you right know? It’s a concept and not direct experience. So it’s second order truth. Reality is first order truth. So yes it is true that I think that death is real but that doesn’t mean that death is literally real. You cling to second order truth because that’s all you know.

@Someone here My unprofessional opinion: Your ego mind wants death to be real. So you want a direct description for your ego mind to grasp. Leo said that you are dreaming and "death“ is just the end of the dream where you become your true form and infinite again. So you just wake up and there is no "death process“ that really happens.

I think the recent trip of @amanen would be a full breakthrough. But it doesn’t sound like the trip your gf was having was just the tip of the iceberg also.

You will never be at a place where you think "damn I got my shit 100% handled, now it’s time to get a gf.“ It could also become an avoidance tactic if you are afraid of rejection where you basically keep telling yourself that you aren’t there yet to avoid facing your fears.

Having difficulties finding the right direction in life. I am studying to become a teacher but I don’t know if that’s really what I want to become. I am in the first semester and there are 6 more semester to go plus 2 years of really stressful legal clerkship. So 5 years at least but probably 6-7 years for me because I need time for socializing and spirituality also to ground myself. That’s a huge investment for something I am not sure I want. I am pretty sure teaching in some kind of way is my LP but I don’t know if being a school teacher is it. Next semester I will put a lot of time into practice. I will work on schools, do internships, do tutoring and just a little bit of university stuff to get a real got taste of what it’s like to actually be a school teacher. Hopefully then I am more sure that this is what I want to do.

I don’t think it would feel great to lie to somebody when you are high cause that’s a low consciousness thing to do.

He would probably try to change their belief and if they wouldn’t change he would reject them. So all of the "love“ he gives to other is bound to a hidden social contract. You have to follow the same doctrine, otherwise you are getting outcast. So it’s not real (unconditional) love but love that suits the purpose of the survival of the group.

To name some non real life examples I love Geralt and Rittersporn from the Witcher series. They combined would make a perfect role model imo. -Geralt is all about masculine love. He doesn’t like to kill, he only does it when it has to be done. In the last episode of the second series there was a scene that gave me goosebumps. He was basically in deep love with a powerful women who turned out to be manipulative and selfish and was actively super destructive regarding Geralts higher cause. In this scene Geralt cought her and was ready to cut off her head even though he was still in deep love with her. It’s a bit like the will smith scene with the zombie dog that Leo talked about in one of his videos. -Rittersporn is in a way similar to Geralt in that he does things for a higher cause even though it’s against his survival agenda. He actively brings himself in danger as an artist or when he joins Geralt or when he helps the elves and all of that just to find a way to live with a higher purpose. And in all of that he is charismatic, honest, faithful and always jokes around. And in all of that this personality seems believeable if he had some mystical experiences. Don’t have a lot of real life examples honestly. Alan Watts to 80% probably but he was kind of a dick when it comes to his family life I think. So to much stage blue shadow. Leo Gura to 70% maybe. His teachings lack lightness, compassion etc. but he is great at being decisive, clear and making wake up calls imo. Jordan Peterson to 40% maybe. Otherwise just bits and pieces from different people.

Here is a short clip of him explaining what death is. https://youtu.be/bOaJ2I40Rs8

I like this one. Urban monastic also sounds good.
