From my experience 5 meo dmt dissolves the self, so I mean, how could an experience be 100 times stronger? If a high dose of 5 Meo dmt leads to 100% ego dissolution, meaning 0 percent ego left. How could an experience be stronger than that? I mean there can’t be negative self dissolution beyond zero. Either it’s gone or there’s some ego left, can’t go further right ? Like how is there MORE or LESS infinity lmao either it’s infinite or limited Or am I wrong here?

I can temporarily stop my mind chatter if I place my attention on a sense perception (for example by focusing on object in front of me) Maybe I’m still thinking when I do that but I just don’t notice hmmm But I don’t know how to prolong that silence. And I don’t know what would be achieved if I prolonged that silence, because I don’t find my mind disruptive -
This is a very deep topic to me In this response I’m going to focus on physical health. Because when you talk about the value of mental health you have a different dilemma at hand. Because there can be things that are not the healthiest for the physical body but are healthy for your mind (let’s say for example a medication for depression with side effects, or allowing yourself some unhealthy food from time to time). So if you prioritize both optimal mental and physical health, they can collide and you’ll have to weigh them against each other (for example someone might chose not to consume medication for their mental health because of side effects) Back to physical health. I am lucky to have great physical health. I don’t have any physical health issues, my energy is stable all the time, i have never seriously injured myself etc. Ever since i was a kid I’ve had a vivid imagination. Sometimes i would imagine going through horrible reincarnations and feeling scared. Or I’d look up some really painful disease and feel disturbed (like trigeminal neuralgia) I read about people going through all sorts of severe physical health issues and I sympathize with how much the quality of their life worsens. I don’t think you can live optimal life without optimal physical health. A life with chronic pain, chronic fatigue, brain fog, nausea will automatically be of worse quality Maybe someone will say “but some pain is bareable”. I don’t know if I agree. Pain is something you don’t wanna feel, so any pain is at least an annoyance in life and brings the quality down, even if it’s mild There is immense peace in having great physical health. Not having to worry about pain, not having to worry about having the energy to do things. No amount of, let’s say money, would I trade for my physical health. That’s how much I value it. I think it’s a good idea for your wellbeing, to strive for optimal health, maybe even crucial. (Don’t have to be like Bryan Johnson, but I mean like pain free and stable energy). And how to do that, there are different ways. One important factor is your own body awareness. When your body sends you a signal that something is wrong you have to be connected enough to your body to feel it properly, to be able to do something about it. That is a foundation. Then comes your lifestyle. If you have naturally optimal health, you don’t necessarily need to have optimal lifestyle to have optimal health, like if you’re young and healthy. But if you know your body to be more sensitive, like some people can be born with different conditions and sensitivities, or with old age comes more sensitivity, then you might need to take additional steps to ensure optimal health. So I think optimal physical health is non negotiable for well being and should be prioritized, but you only have to “work on it” so much to the degree that is needed for your particular body. And in some cases when something benefits your mental health more (let’s make hypothetical scenario that there is a psychedelic that will give you awakening but will give you headache after) then it might be worth the temporary sacrifice of optimal physical health. But nonetheless your health is prioritized.

Do you think some people have more dense minds/selves while some others can be “softer”, because here it sounds like there’s degrees. I think there is, in my own experience, like my mind/self used to be denser in the past. You don’t have to answer my questions btw but you seem very expressive here and have interesting view so that’s why I ask -

Do you believe there are some non dualists who are open to their nature all the time ? -
Well so you mean Kant doesn’t agree with the rational paradigm?
-
It’s like every person you’ve loved leaves a trace in your heart forever I believe that soul ties can exist but I’m not sure if I believe that every single person has them
-
I see your point
-
Seems like just extra work. Instead it’s assumed you continue marriage unless you split

I’m always in awe of people who have persevered through adversity so kudos to you🙏🏻

When you say “I am the mind” do you mean “I” as the self? So you mean us having minds is what makes it possible for us to reach enlightenment? -
Damn is it legal where you live? That’s cool it sounds hard to obtain the material though

Ok I agree with you it’s really cool and amazing I just thought if you perceived it as a tool beyond just thinking. Like if you knew something about it I didn’t know -

Once during sleep paralysis vibrational stage a voice told me suffering is love Its like when non dualists say everything is unconditional love
