Understood Ok understood, I don’t think I’ve noticed that particular movement you talk about. It’s very subtle indeed.

Does this simply mean placing your attention on it? Do you touch your skin to create a physical tingling sensation? How do you know it’s energy and not just physical sensation? In the past when I’ve done practice I used to meditate and sometimes my blood flow would get kinda blocked in my butt and it would start hurting a little. And I lowkey found that if I placed my attention on it and held it there, it kinda changed my relationship to the sensation and eased the pain. I have also done practice from eckhart tolle where you place and hold attention to one body part at a time then the whole body at once. You’ll feel the vibrational energy in each body part and it grows when you put your attention on it then you feel the entire bodies energy it’s quite calming Also during sleep paralysis I’ve felt all sorts of energies I think there’s something spiritual about it there too

God is very good at fooling itself into thinking it’s actually a limited human. That’s what I mean by saying the illusion seems real

This is something I struggle with, a lack of interest, that’s one reason I’m not so good at socializing

The most solid and real seeming illusion

Sometimes basic things can be worth mentioning

I agree

What are you trying to say?

It doesn’t include gay marriage so I don’t agree with that. I have catholic background btw so I’m going after what I heard from church

Love can be very egotistical

Yea and something similar is simply referencing things that are occurring/things (or something about the person) currently in the setting you’re in. So if you’re at the club you might mention something about the music. If you’re out in town you mention something about the town. So you just say something that is relevant to the situation and since you’re both in the same place it will fit into the convo with them. It’s super basic tip but it’s not always easy to be present and find these things in the environment to reference because if you’re nervous you can get overly self aware/self focused (in bad way) and get stuck in your head. It’s like being in flow with the environment. Most people have this skill if they’re simply relaxed enough (and interested enough, if not it can seem fake) it’s like if you’re playing a video game and your mind is tuned in/connected to the game so everything you think and say will be connected to it. Then apply this to social situations and you’ll have something fitting and relevant to say and connect over. A way to practice this could be to literally place your attention on the outside world/other people .

What is meant by reason?

I say on WhatsApp

I think what helps is decluttering the mind to make space for the intuition, to hear it better. Sometimes it can be subtle so not always easy to follow. So that means for example getting rid of neurosis, stressors, distractions etc

It seems to me that the brain just thinks. That’s what it does. It doesn’t necessarily have to be tied to survival of the ego. But what gives the brain something to think about is the self, because we feel like real people in a real world, so we have “stuff” to think about, ourselves etc. Without a self, if you dissolve border between you and the world there’s no longer a sense of separate things so maybe not much to think about. No longer relating to the world, others and experiencing yourself.

Beautiful. It sounds like it comes right from the heart

Does he not constantly feel like absolute crap because of the toll it’s taking on his body. Either these kind of people have low body awareness so they’re able to censor all the sensations out of their awareness, or it’s that the substances are so addictive they do it despite the discomfort/pain. I guess it’s a combo. Like if you truly truly felt deeply what it did to your body would you continue? Maybe maybe not

Is this experience of love including a self or is it devoid of it?

Porn is one of those things that can give you excessive dopamine. So if you wanna take care of your brains reward pathways you wanna use it in moderation (or not at all). It’s like with social media, gaming, sweets etc. When you fantasize it usually doesn’t give you as much pleasure as porn because thoughts are more vague than images, so it’s more gentle on your reward pathways and its like you have to work for it a little because you’re the one actively imagining. So that is preferable in some cases. If you really wanna go all the way with it and keep things as natural as possible stick to real sex and fantasy. Then your reward pathways will be associating sex with something more natural. Plus porn has the risk of desensitizing you and making you accustomed to more violent material so it can corrupt your mind meanwhile if you stick to fantasy and sex you stay in touch with a more pure form of your sexuality that is untouched by culture. Just some thoughts

I’m still in disbelief my parents really threw away such a precious substance

Damn so you’re telling me I could essentially escape my own life for thousands of years into dmt realm

Yea that’s in the absolute sense, but I’m talking about nothingness in the relative sense, meaning the absence of something (because in the relative sense there is separate things) . I mean non existence is nothing, so it cannot be experienced or recognized, as we can only experience and recognize “something”. That’s why it seems we just “pass it” in our sleep. So yea you could say non existence never ~is~ because it’s nothing

Cool experience

But how do you know that

Are you aware of the nothingness during deep sleep? No right. So why wouldn’t death be like that (if death is nothingness)
