My bad, if its from a dispensary then its real. By "they lie" I meant street drug dealers.

Its hard to say because most cannabis edibles lie about the dosage. Like if its those trolly gummies with spray on THC that claim to be 50mg per dose, its complete BS. I remember the first time I had a real 25mg edible and I was high for like 8+ hours, and I had been a pretty regular weed smoker. In short, if its a real 100mg, then youll be high as a kite, but in my experience, they lie about dosage.

How have the Life Purpose course and booklist been able to keep you afloat financially for close to a decade? It would seem that you would need to sell close to 1000 courses per year to be successful. Do you have other sources of income? Am I allowed to ask how many courses you have sold? Im asking cause I want to sell infoproducts and im wondering if one good product with good marketing can last for a decade+

Ive been doing quite a bit of practice recently and I can reach about 750-1000WPM/100-150 pages per hour with about 60-70% comprehension, though this is difficult to define. I recently read Walter Isaacsons 500+ page biography on Da Vinci in about 5 hours. I also had a pen to quickly mark stuff i thought was important and then folded the corner of the page so i could find it later. But yeah it does feel much more like work Yeah i definitely notice the fatigue, but I feel like its a brain workout of sorts. I honestly think it could be a trainable skill and that anyone could reach 1000WPM with above average comprehension and if you have crazy genetics, you could be someone like Harold Bloom and read 400+ pages per hour with 95% retention https://fs.blog/why-read/ https://www.reddit.com/r/haroldbloom/comments/4qibl5/question_was_bloom_seriously_capable_of_reading/

What is the fastest possible reading speed while still being able to have high comprehension rates. The guys above claim to have 25,000+ WPM or about 80 pages per minute with the use of speed reading techniques. Ive also heard of mystics like Osho and Krishnamurti who were able to scan books quickly and be able to read hundreds of pages in an hour. Is this possible? Have any of you guys achieved super fast reading speeds. I cap out at around 500WPM or 2 pages per minute max. Part of the reason im asking is because I hate the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of books that I know I will love and will provide me with great information, but theres just not enough time in this life to read everything I want. I probably have a To Be Read list of like 1000+ books and it will take like 10-20 years to finish them all. Not to mention how when you finish one book and read the bibliography, you find a few more books that seem interesting and then your list just grows exponentially. How do I come to terms with the fact that there is so many great books, movies, music, and more that I will never experience because of my finite time here?

Yes. I imagine it would be like this

Very timely considering Leos recent blog post. I very much agree with the article and Vaushs take mentioned. The Mr beastification and tiktokification of the internet is rotting the minds of the youth. I despise every thumbnail of his and even though he seems like a well intentioned person, I just think of the potential hes squandering. He has the largest audience on the planet and chooses to produce slop content and sell candy bars. He has this obsession with just being the biggest. In this interview, he talks about his new gameshow where he explicitly says that his main goal is to make it the most viewed gameshow of all time, with the most contestants, and biggest prizepool. No emphasis on it being actually good, because to him having a shit ton of view must mean its objectively good (With this metric, McDonalds would be the best restaurant because it feeds the most people everyday). Do you think he'll be able to do this type of stuff for the forseeable future (10-20+ years) or do you think people will grow tired of this type of stuff and seek out media with more authenticity and personality? If the YouTube algorithm or content landscape changes, do you think Mr. Beast will be able to adapt? Are you guys fans of Mr Beast?

I have jacked off basically everyday for the past like 8 years, yet I am able to astral project -
Neither did I. I was simply showing how an aversion to psychedelics is not an indicator of someone being stage blue. You were being black and white by saying that "orange is athiest"
-
@StarStruck There are many stage orange people who are averse to psychedelics, Like richard dawkins and neil degrasse tyson. Owen pays his staff incredibly well, there was a time when like all of the RSD instructors were making near a million per year. If you actually listen to Owen and try to discern his values, he does not align at all with stage blue. Also the current Pope is pretty progressive and pisses a lot of his stage blue followers off. It takes a very developed ego to become a leader of one billion people. Dont just assume stage blue when you hear someone talking about christianity
-
You can be any religion at any stage, its not as simple as "All oranges are athiest." Something like A Course In Miracles is christianity from a stage yellow/turqiouse perspective. Sadhguru is like Hinduism at stage Turqoise. Also Owen is speaking about christianity from a higher perspective where he recognizes that its one of many holy books that you can draw wisdom from. He also talks about the Tao Te Ching and Buddhism. He is also aware of spiral dynamics and talked about it once in one of his seminars. In my opinion hes orange/green.

Where does Libertarian fall on this spectrum?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4BxfddIhGE <-- More of Sai Baba materializing jewelry What do you guys think? Can somebody actually attain these abilities or is Sai Baba a conman. I recently watched this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXRhh83cdZc about a manifestation guru who claimed to have been trained by a woman who could materialize stuff like gold and diamonds from thin air and it led me down this rabbithole. I want to believe that its real but I know it could be spiritual fantasies. Maybe you need 0.00001% rare genetics. Curious to hear your guys opinions
-
Yes this was a great video. People need to stop complaining and just always look to add value/become valuable in any situation.

Bro theyre "pure" because theyve been sexually repressed from birth. Dont join a cult just for the women. You can find high quality women anywhere -
I thought this was a funny video. (I do think Lebron James is faithful tho).

I appreciate that -
In my opinion, its wrong and seems like grooming. Not saying that you have bad intentions, its just frowned upon in much of society to meet an underage girl when your a decade older and then nurture a relationship over the course of a couple years to end up taking her virginity. Also Im not sure where youre from, but 17 is under the age of consent in many western nations. If I were you, I would stop thinking of this girl in a romantic way, and limit contact. Find someone who is legal

Ive always thought of how someone would go about making an actually healthy fast food place where all the menu items are ethically sourced and good for you. There are many healthy places in my city and hometown but I dont frequently go there just because of the long wait times and usually limited seating. There are some acai bowl places that are really good + healthy and I think someone could find a way to transform it into a fast food place. By fast food, I mean something with a drive thru and the ability to receive the food within like 5-10 minutes of ordering. One would need to find a balance between mass producing quickly while still maintaining a healthy standard.

Over the past month, Ive had like 5 dreams where I am beating up my dad is some form (Kicking, punching, slapping him, etc). Does anyone have any experience with dream interpretation and know what this means? I kind of have a strained relationship with him because I hate any advice he gives me about my life or future, but Ive never had a physical altercation with him.

^^ This is my favorite of his practical videos. Once you grasp that there are things that can only be gotten through deliberate consistent effort over a course of 10+ years, you'll radically shift much of your timewasting behaviors. ^^ This is my fav profound philosophical video of his. Weird that when I searched on youtube "The social matrix actualized" it didnt show up on the search results, only the clips of it. I also like the video on exquisite balance along with the duality series and myth of science

You have to start with baby steps to build momentum. Make a list of small things you can do everyday consistently to improve your skill. The brands you listed are like 100+ years old and have had literally a century of iteration and improvement. Dont compare yourself to those, compare yourself to who you were yesterday and just be consistent with tiny improvements. You move a mountain by carrying small stones
