The room you would experience in a different dream is a different room. Not everything is going to occur in this one dream. I'm talking about the unfoldment of this particular dream, in it not everything exists. Notice that it's a different dream if it unfolded differently. From the absolute perspective, yes, all possibilities will be exhausted due to everything being infinite, but you can't say the room exists in this dream if you do not enter it. In that sense some other dream where you do go into the room, there it would exist, but it isn't connected to this dream other than by the fact that all moments are in the present moment. There are never any povs outside yours, there's always one consciousness, and no matter what form you are in, it's always God's.

It doesn't matter if I say only you are conscious, only I am conscious, or that both of us are conscious. You should just go figure if anything I am saying is true or not for yourself. Yes, but you don't know if you are going to walk to the room, so it only exists as a possibility, not as an actuality. You could die right now and never go into the room, and it would never become actual. You can't really say the room is actual unless it is currently in your direct experience, simply because you do not know what will "become " actual "in the future" and what will not, and because it actually isn't actual unless in direct experience. Of course it's all happening in the present moment. I do agree that POV is a limitation - all the supposed 'future' and 'past' events happened right now.

This is really fascinating. Sometimes during especially high dose trips I can see colors like pure white light, that is nothing alike to actual white, alongside other colors that I don't have names for, but seeing such a dazzling array of colors all of the time sounds so great. I've also heard people talk about all kinds of metallic colors that go beyond our normal range of color vision. It would also be amazing to see UV light, you would be able to see all the different patterns in flowers that bees are attracted to.

Yes, but this includes the body, it isn't any more special.

I've had many deep awakenings in dreams. What helps for me is that occasionally I have dreams in which I don't have a body, and usually these are the ones where I have deeper awakenings. I've had dreams where I was just an infinite empty void and it was actually an omniscient state, and ones where I was indescribable things that do not fit with our waking reality at all, and the states of consciousness that come with them are also indescribable. Its hard to even try to communicate these states. One time I was this rotating godhead in a self-contained chamber surrounded by skulls that made up the space, and there was absolutely no sense of time, there was a remarkable degree of awareness, I saw consciousness constructing everything in real time, but even this is one of the easier to communicate dreams I have had. I noticed that psychedelics changed my dreams, they are far more advanced after them. I highly suggest lucid dreaming, you can usually raise your consciousness simply with imagination in a lucid dream.

Form is literally formless, if you want to make some duality about it and say it is not, then of course you are not going to be understanding what Absolute Truth is because your worldview is dualistic and does not include form in it, so how can a truth that is not total and not include form be absolute? It cannot. But the actual Absolute Truth is absolute and everything is included in it.

You worded it perfectly, but this is tricky for most people to understand because they remember something in their memory 'being actual', and equate that with some 'actual experience' before. When in fact a memory is never something actual because it is not happening right now. There isn't a before, you can't have an experience before or in the past. There's no such a thing as 'was actual', only what is actual.

Here are a few of mine, I did hundreds of these at one point. The prompts are cosmic love, godhead infinite cosmic consciousness, celestial heavenly god consciousness eye, galaxy crystal divine love eye.

What if an enlightened man accidentally farts?

I think Leo here is using his definition of intelligence that is aligned with infinite intelligence, which is basically oriented towards truth, consciousness, and love. That kind of intelligence doesn't have much in common with how good at academics you are.

Yes, permanent awakening is not my goal, my goal in life is to have as many rich and varied experiences as possible. I love the form, I love the different qualities, that's the whole point of being human to me. Don't get me wrong, from a human standpoint I rarely have almost any negative emotions, my daily life is filled with fun, enjoyment, and love (of the human level), most of the time I am aware to varying degrees that I am god, and I can usually even enter some kind of state of nondual awareness, and I don't feel like I am hearing or seeing things, et cetera, they just happen. Now maybe that sounds like a really good state, but when I said I consider this suffering I meant pretty much any human state that includes a body, because to me it just seems that anything you can do as a human doesn't come even close to what I've experienced. It's part of being human. Maybe suffering was a too strong word to use, I don't know how to convey it, but what I mean isn't just a sort of peace, I can enter those kinds of peaceful states easily. I don't mean it in the sense of craving or desire. I don't believe that desire is what causes suffering, after all, this is God's desire. The kind of state that I would consider 'full enlightenment' for me is on the scale of infinite consciousness, and I'm just not going to be able to sustain that. My consciousness would be too focused on consciousness itself to actually do anything, I need a lower level of consciousness to even be able to function as a human. I also know all of those were my imaginations, but I love my imagination, imagination is one of the things I enjoy the most. I love form, but also the formless. I also love the truth, but I love a lot of other things too. I'm too madly in love with my girlfriend that I could take time away from her (and a lot of other things) for the sole pursuit of enlightenment. Psychedelics give me a nice way to get both. I've experienced both, and I don't want solely one or the other. Even when I enter any kind of peak state and do once again reach different levels of awakening ranging from basic awakenings to becoming conscious of infinite degrees of love and so on, I never regret having lived like this, and would not trade it for some sort of higher level of total permanent awakening. It's just what I like, I like both sides.

The kinds of awakenings I have had are simply the kind that I do not believe meditators are accessing because I have not heard them talk about these kinds of states. You can take a look at my trip report for some reference, and this is not one the deepest awakening I have had. I just don't hear meditators talk about anything even remotely close to this, and this is not a state I am able to be in while functioning as a human. It is simply impossible. These kinds of awakenings are the ones I care about, and this level of depth simply cannot be sustained while being in a human body. To me to simply any state as a human is a form of suffering compared to this, I don't disagree about that, but I don't think meditation will let me reach these infinite levels of intelligence that I value. I don't care about something like having no 'cravings'. I mainly care about infinite love, and this is not something that I often hear meditators talk about. The kind of love I am talking about is so deep it can destroy the universe or create a new one. It is so deep that it kills you completely. And if I am dead, I cannot live. I am here to live, regardless of all the suffering this brings me. To me no matter what state I am in, even a nondual state (that I frequently access - even when sober) while having a human body, is incomparable to these experiences. For me the kind of total and complete enlightenment is something I cannot access while I am being a human, so I will do with accessing these states whenever I feel like it. My definition of a total enlightenment experience is so radically potent that it isn't possible as a human. I don't consider myself to be enlightened all the time, even now, and this is not a goal of mine, because if I were to go for the depth I seek permanently, I would have to actually die. I already feel like there is no separate self in my direct experience all of the time, but I don't really care about that much. I am not looking for a baseline increase, I am looking for states so utterly unremoved from what we consider as possible that they simply cannot be brought out by simple meditation, at least not as far as I have heard. There might be exceptions. I am not trying to disparage meditation, I just don't think it would take me these states that psychedelics have taken me into. Each has their own function.

Enlightenment made me only more interested in reality. In one sense it made me so fulfilled that I felt that if I were to die right now, I would be very happy to die, because I had gotten exactly what I wanted, I was fully satisfied, that was it. It felt so complete, I was complete. In one sense nothing matters, it's all good anyways, so who cares? But then again, you have all this amazing stuff left for you. I mean look around you, it's literally God. This is God. It is brilliant, beautiful, amazing, intelligent, pure magic. Since nothing matters anyways, why not enjoy what is? Look at all the beauty there is, look at the ingenious intelligence that exists. This is the same exact Oneness that you realized. There are so many unique experiences you can have, so many things you can enjoy. Find something you find joy in and the process itself will be meaningful enough.

Yes you are creating it. Nothing is actually limited, the infinite itself is masking itself to be finite. Notice that the pictures and things they say are in your own direct experience. This is the self-deception I was talking about, it is absolutely embedded in reality, otherwise it would be obvious that there was nothing outside your own mind. Consider something like being blind, you might still think that colors still exist if you are blind, somewhere in the world. But this is because you are not aligned enough to your direct experience. Colors only exist when they are in your experience. They are the thing itself, there is nothing behind them, there is no reality behind appearances. Having your eyes closed and eyes open is a very different thing. You have to really stick to direct experience to get what I am trying to communicate.

You are in full control, you just don't know this. Solipsism means absolute sovereignty. You wouldn't be scared of anything or anyone, because you would be too conscious to realize that they are you. And as r0ckyreed said Solipsism will bring you to Beauty, Intelligence, and Love. I would also say it is extremely liberating, relieving, and amazing. Alongside other things, there are so many great things you realize alongside Solipsism.

God is beyond time, so in the eternal present moment it already is exploring / has explored everything. All the infinite endless possibilities are in the present moment, and God has paradoxically already went through them, in fact infinitely many times. This is because God is beyond time, and everything that could be explored is in the present moment. So everything is simultaneously explored. All the infinite possibilities that do not ever end, are in fact already explored in the present moment, because there is no time to constrain God, nor linearity. And it goes on forever. Every experience goes on forever. It's hard to convey what I am trying to say, but because it is infinite it can explore itself totally. It isn't like a linear process. Although I do agree that there are some things worth not exploring, even for God. For example I don't think God would explore some hypothetical universe that is akin to complete TV static with no intelligent patterns in it, that is just not a part of what God is. It wouldn't create something like that.

As far as I've understood there is no world separate from direct experience. That means anything beyond your current direct experience can not exist at the current moment when not in direct experience, because there is no other thing than the direct experience. For example if you think a room where you are not in currently exists in the same way as the room you are in right now, because you can walk to it, and then it is in your direct experience, notice that what you have is actually an idea of what the room would be like if you walked into it. The room when not in it does not exist because the only thing that exists is direct experience, not the idea that it does exist. The other room only becomes real when you actually enter it. A video game where only what you can see in the screen is rendered is a good analogy. Now you might like to think that there is some state in which the world does exist outside of your experience, but this is simply not true, and you can very clearly reach states where it is incredibly obvious. But it takes real commitment to direct experience, not to any sort of abstractions or ideas about what is out there. As for how it is created, there really is no how. Reality is pure magic. In a nightly dream, there is no how either, it just can happen. It's the same in reality. The rules just are incredibly consistent and make it seem like there's always something out there, more than what is actually happening. How reality unfolds makes it seem like there is a world that exists beyond your current experience, but this is not true, and this is why reality is basically a very deep self-deception. You can realize that it is a self-deception, but you most likely cannot affect this.

This felt really really weird at the time, but it faded away so quickly so it was easy to forget about. And I was used to having very long time dilation, before this experience I had multiple trips where I had "lived" lives in alternative dimensions, once as humans I think (I died and lived multiple lives, not just one), and once as a tree. You also just kind of get used to weird trips, as I have an unusually high affinity for weird and extremely intense trips and had things of this order regularly. This isn't my weirdest trip, but it definitely is on the top 10.

Or what about awakening? Is it only meaningful if you have to meditate rigorously for 40 years to get it? Psychedelics handed awakening to me effortlessly, and I have found it incredibly meaningful. My awakening process has been unusually easy. I would not find 40 years of rigorous meditation meaningful. If I knew I could get the same thing with psychedelics, I would find the 40 years rigorous meditation meaningless instead of meaningful. Why go through such a struggle when it can be so easy? Of course if I did go through the meditation route, I would probably pride myself on my suffering, and despise the psychedelics route as inferior, and find my struggle meaningful. But that's only because I had to struggle, if I didn't have to struggle and had an easier alternative, I would not find any meaning in it.

I don't set goals that I have to struggle for, so I don't know. I don't care for ambition, I have a very enjoyable life. I have a lot of hobbies such as programming and painting, but I do them because it is enjoyable and easy, not because I struggle with it. I wouldn't do it if it was a huge struggle. Nobody has persuaded me to suffer for causes I don't believe in. My life is very meaningful, and it is not hard at all. It would be depressing for me to go through struggles instead of enjoying myself.

I have had a few experiences. My most influential experience had lasting impact on my life. This was on MDMA. I gained information about a girl who I had no previous relation towards. I don't know if its channeling or clairvoyance, but I basically gained information like age, first name, interests, what she likes, and some random information. What we liked was very similar. I gained the information by speaking it out loud to myself, like I was channeling the information from divine omniscience for myself. We also had some sort of telepathic conversation, but this is hard to convey. I was so convinced that she knew where I would go that I went outside to look for her. I went to a spot near a lake, but she didn't come. Nevertheless I was so happy because of this that I was dancing wildly. Due to this I was afraid my apartment keys might get lost (there was relatively long grass here, so it wouldve been hard to look for them), and I got them out of my pocket to check them. As I did in front of my eyes the keys transformed into a very bizarre looking wriggly big worm, that I had never seen anything like that before. I live in Finland and there are no such worms here, there are relatively few actually. I got scared so I threw away the worm. I thought it was just a hallucination and proceeded to look for my keys. One notable thing here is that the worm had disappeared completely. I tried finding the keys for over 6 hours, but could not find them. I had to call some service to come open my apartment. A month and a half go by, I still had a feeling that we would meet some day. One day over 4km away from the place where I lost my keys, the girl who I gained information about is there. I immediately recognized her, I don't know how, and went to talk to her. Turns out she knew some information about me too, but did not need MDMA for this. Almost all of the information about her was accurate, there were like 2 things that were not. But the craziest thing is that she had my apartment keys. She had gotten them across space, I call this object teleportation. Then she became my girlfriend. I actually omitted some information from this that would make this even more incredulous, because it's rather sensitive in nature. I've also had success in telepathy with my girlfriend on LSD. I had minor success with telekinesis on LSD, being able to move one object. Also on LSD, I've been able to see through walls a few times, like everything becoming transparent. Also on LSD I've had an experience where I was able to walk for over 30 minutes with my eyes closed with perfect accuracy taking turns accurately and so on, because my consciousness was perfectly aware of the environment even without my sight. I've also once had partial success in maybe teleportation, where I was able to physically teleport to a location by imagining that I was already there. I was able to feel and see and interact with the environment. I went back before the trip ended though, so I did not confirm if I truly went there. I also had success in materializing a bird out of thin air. But I won't go into more details regarding that. I've had other experiences too, but I won't go into everything here. I'm not interested in proving anything, I think anybody can get access to these kinds of experiences. Telepathy and intuition related abilities are the most commonly reported abilites on psychedelics, but I know people who have gained powers like: being able to move objects through a webcam, changing spotify music with your mind, partial teleportation, pyrokinesis, gravity control, getting people to talk your thoughts out loud, and much more. I've done extensive research on this topic and there are probably even weirder powers, but I don't know how accurate they are, so I chose not to include many examples in this post.

If you're interested in these powers, it's also possible to gain temporary access to some of them through the use of psychedelics. The things you can do with them can have permament effects though, it is not like a hallucination. I've done this multiple times and I am not spiritually gifted, I was only able to do so due to drugs. From my personal experience even some of the crazier end of the spectrum powers that are seemingly impossible can be achieved. I have done a lot of research on this topic and some people seemingly have gained longer lasting (periods of weeks and months) but usually weak powers from psychedelics. These powers are actually nothing special, they can occur naturally in a higher state of consciousness. However, I don't think just anybody can get them through meditation, just like not everybody who meditates will not become God Realized. But just like how you can get enlightened without spiritual talent with psychedelics, the same applies to most of the powers that can come from higher states of consciousness. Also, just because Sadhguru might have some powers does not mean that his metaphysics and worldview are.

I can't wait to try salvia, it sounds like a psychedelic I've been looking for, not perhaps for truth, but for the exploration for the potential of consciousness. The craziness, unpredictability, and utter annihilation of the ego. I wish there were more kappa opiod receptor binding psychedelics.

Agreed, for me struggle is actually very unattractive and not very meaningful. Whats meaningful for me usually is something that is easy, I find meaning in the act and sensations itself, not due to how hard something is to get. In fact the easier something is for me to get the more I appreciate it because I did not go have to suffer for it. I don't appreciate the suffering. I've never for example found scarcity, struggle, and so on, appealing in any way. I like to take everything easy, I enjoy what comes most easy for me. Almost all of my lives most meaningful moments have been ones that I did not have to struggle to achieve.

It's always here, never almost here. It's not hidden or veiled. You might not be conscious of what the truth is at all times, but it nevertheless is still always here. It doesn't go away.
