When I had my first taste of Truth I thought: How am I ever going to deal with this? Then it occurred to me that nothing in reality had changed. Reality was exactly as it has always been and the only thing that did change was my false views.

I've never done 5MeO but I would think a breakthrough may be an important factor.

@Ninja_pig It's a safeguard to keep the sacred knowledge out of the hands of riffraff. As the old saying goes "Nobel wines are not to be tasted by drunkards"

What difference does skin color make when the focus is on the spiritual body.

@AerisVahnEphelia You so don't belong here if you can't make compassion part of your wisdom.

This topic is heading for the dumpster.

What if you agree that there is nothing to agree or disagree to?

Perhaps adding flashing neon lights would attract more moths to your teaching.

Sure, here's your choice. On one hand there is reality. On the other is wishful thinking.

What is your experience of DeJa'Vu? For me it feels like reality becomes a movie that I've seen before, but I can't place where and when I saw it the first time.

Consciousness is always moving toward greater entropy. A singularity expressing itself as infinite manifestations.

Or perhaps everything is already written. And daja vu is a sort of peeking at the blueprints of what's to come.

Which part? Parts?

Interesting firsthand experience well worth noting. But somehow, I intuit there is something more to it .

@Osaid You have a valid point. Daja vu does have a dreamy quality to it. But I still wonder if something doesn't spill over into dreams.

We know what consciousness is so what is the role of intuition. Has intuition ever told you there more to consciousness than you know?

I'm reminded of the story where Nisargadatta would ask a follower "what is your experience of Truth" and no matter what answer they gave his reply was always the same "No that's not it".
