I wonder the same about myself too. I know I have a sense of self. But I don’t really know what kind of state of consciousness I am in , in comparison to others. Someone on Reddit said “enlightenment is this moment, without the doubt about it” So it seems if there is doubt, then one isn’t enlightened. But maybe there are degrees to it, different kinds of awakening

Cool work It’s pretty wise if desperation leads you to enlightenment work out of all things lol I have done a kind of self inquiry of observing the self a lotttt and it has aided in dissolution of layers to my ego but it hasn’t led me to full blown enlightenment experience unfortunately so I’m interested in drugs

How you did for a week straight doesn’t that require like super human discipline? What kind of mindfulness practice? I guess key here is fanatic desire to awaken . Which I lack

I was joking a little but I remember you in a thread once mentioning how you got mystical experience quite shortly after some meditation or something : I think in the thread “genetic freaks megathread”. That’s what made me think of it I don’t get your second paragraph but it’s okay you don’t have to take time to explain

I don’t know what u mean

Stop flexing you’re naturally mystic

I have thought about this too. The mind creates context as an overlay for the present direct moment. What you’re directly experiencing is your senses, what you’re currently hearing, seeing etc. But the mind makes you feel like what you’re seeing is happening within something larger. But that’s only what the mind is doing. You don’t actually experience anything larger than the immediacy here.

You could also introduce someone to ideas of enlightenment and spirituality in case you spot they seem open, not everyone knows about it but it could open up a world for them and you’ll have something additional to connect over. I live in Europe too in Sweden it’s a quite introvert culture. So I see the struggle. We don’t really talk to strangers as much. Then it’s easier if you go to specific events where socializing is more accepted..

I vote mine as ugliest username

It requires turning inward to see your own structure I think , which most don’t do

When you are deeply in touch with yourself and know yourself it’s easy to discern who’s for you and not, which you are Then it’s just a matter of exposing yourself to many people so you actually have chance to meet someone aligned. It’s a practical step, for example joining a group of people engaged in a hobby you like And importantly, to present yourself in authentic way where your depth gets to shine when you interact with someone, so the person has a chance to connect with the real you. Everyone might not show their deeper side at first but you can bring it out of them if you do, perhaps it’s more fitting to say so to a man, because stereotypically it’s more masculine to be the one leading the conversation and the vibe.

I agree. I noticed it myself I wonder why everyone wouldn’t seek enlightenment, because humans always want the best thing and enlightenment seems like the best. A thought is that the self is so dense that the person cannot intuit the possibility of enlightenment. I think it was like that for me, if someone showed me a talk about non duality 10 years ago I would probably not resonate, but today when my self has softened over the years I resonate with it. Same

Have you never desired a nice self image? I have had that desire for most of my life It didn’t work out for me though, a trap like many others. But I couldn’t help but want it, it seemed so good, but it’s only good for a little while, and it always has its backside… what you favor, you will fear the opposite. To seek enlightenment seems to me like the wisest thing

No I can tell I’m not enlightened

Thanks for the reminder. I’m one of the people who haven’t really kept up so much with this ai stuff

Cool. Good you ask I didn’t think about how it wasn’t obvious from my post what I meant. But I meant taking it sublingually. I am already in contact with professionals. I am just gonna keep trying out the cbd oil from the drugstore and the paste I bought from cbd shop and see how it goes I mean it’s not a dangerous product so I have read a little about it and there’s not much research at all so I’m just gonna experiment

What is collateral? I googled and it gave me several definitions I started to use cbd oil daily then I forgot lol but I started again yesterday so far I haven’t noticed effect but I upped the dose a little. And mine might not be best quality because I just randomly bought it from drug store So yesterday I went to a CBD shop and bought 30% cbd paste from there. So I’m looking forward to try that Why you take them with the other drugs? I smoked cbd a few days ago I think I felt a little calmer.

Thanks for the suggestion . What does L-theanine do for you? I tried a cbd oil I bought from a drugstore and so far I haven’t noticed effect but maybe I just need higher doses or it’s not high quality.

I have had clairvoyance event on this forum

The highest goal

I’ll just try it for myself

Did it do anything?

@Schizophonia Have you tried or it’s just one of your theories, Freud/jung inspired, appendix complex?

I’m being honest I don’t know and haven’t met enough people in order to draw a conclusion about women like that. If Leo has approached 1000+ women then yes he has more say in the matter Im a lone wolf that’s why But it’s not about protecting my gender. I’m not offended at all. I was just a little suprised because it doesn’t fit the women I’ve met in my life, I thought this crazy hot woman was like a stereotype, a minority of like influencers in Miami or something

So you mean if you get enlightened you’ll be enlightened forever?
