  1. Yes, I have accessed that state of consciousness but you don't seem to have accessed the state of consciousness that I was talking about. Were by mere surrendering to the divine or what is, that divine presence pours itself into you. Which is a very profound state that can be taped into much easier and that can lead you to the state of consciousness that you are talking about. However, you can access it directly as you said and that is the final goal definetely. But I thought that the point of this conversation was about how my approach would change and what you seem to indicate is probably the destination where I am the divine reality and I'm playing within myself as tools to explore my own self. Yes we can. For most of them, just saying that not with Salvia. That psychedelic is just so alien to regular reality that I'm very unsure that we can access those states with any natural method. Well prove me wrong, I'm open to that and I would be a happy to try a sober technique that allows me to enter into the Salvia realm.
  2. "The realization of the Brahman is a state beyond joy and dejection. Just as when you see a wet earthen vessel from a distance, you presume it is filled with water because generally an earthen pot of full water looks wet, similarly knowers of the Brahman give the impression of being steeped in joy. But this is not the ordinary joy or happiness. What that state is like cannot be described in words." ~ Sri Anandamayi Ma
  3. It makes me reflect about the true purpouse of meditation.
  4. I'm surprised how this keeps being so funny all the time
  5. I would probably shift to kundalini and kriya yoga to generate those chemicals naturally. Also probably would search for shaktipat or some energy transmition or initiation. Also we would have to accept that some realms of consciousness we would never have access again. For example with Salvia, maybe you can access the same psychedelic states naturally but with salvia is just not going to be the case, or rather such technology has not been invented yet. We would have to go for that which is available by other tools. I would surrender much more to grace as my ability to enter into those states would be far reduced and the divine would have to suply it.
  6. I've been refreshing more his youtube channel not gonna lie
  7. As she was moving from ward to ward of a hospital, she remarked: "this also is a temple with God's images. It is He who manifests in the shape of disease as well. In every one of these temples the gods and goddesses are giving darshan. The sense of want, of emptiness and one's true being are in exactly the same place - in fact, they are That and That alone. What is this sense of want and what is "true being"? He and nothing but He. For the simple reason that there is one single seed, which is the tree as well as the seed as well as all its various processes of transformation - truly the One alone. You attempt to appease want with want; hence want does not disappear, nor does the sense of want. When man awakens to the acute consciousness of this sense of want, only then does spiritual inquiry become genuine. You must bear in mind that only when the sense of want becomes the sense of the want of Self-knowledge, does the real Quest begin. Whether you call it the One, the Two, or the Infinite, whatever anyone may say, all is well.
  8. I've tried lots of drugs. I just don't like one: Alcohol. It's just not for me.
  9. You don't understand relative truths vs absolute truths. This misunderstanding is a common error in the proccess of awekening. Check Leo's video about realtive vs absolute.
  10. I understand your point. However, you have also said that this works needs to hit you from different angles to really unravel your mind. Why not trying this new approach? If that is what society is looking for. It doesn't matter the wrapping, once they start going down the rabbit whole they will find you. It can be a nice normie introduction to your work, so that it has a bigger impact and has a wiser fit in todays world
  11. The most important insight I gained from him is the impossibility of grasping the now. He tells again and again that you cannot make a reflexive action to what you are. That even wanting enlightenment, truth or God is starting from the wrong foot. Because reality would never ask itself this maniach questions, as it is already what it is. He cannot make higher abstract sense of what is constantly being the case, it is self evident the case, unmissable experience of existence as whatever is here is what we are searching but we are searching within the play of reality. Therefore he declares that nothing can be attained how can you attain what is always here, how can you grab if the tool that you use to grab is already what you want to grab. I find interesting also that after what he calls the calimity. He forgot even to speak or survive and had to relearn everything from absolute 0 like a kid. Another mind blowing fact that I read from his last letter, My Swan Song: I was very surprised for two things. First of all, I have been investigating the life of Anandamayi Ma for many years. It's the only recorded case in history of someone being bornt fully awake and is called the guru of gurus. Secondly, UG is known for being the most anti everything, the fact that he recognised Anandamayi Ma really made me reflect about his realization. Anandamayi Ma, as UG went through very extreme phisical changes through what she called: when this body was overimposed with the veil of ignorance and played the role of sadhana, how beautiful it is that I have to reveal myself to myself. While UG described it as an horrific experience that no one should ever want, with extreme pain, what seem as radical kundalini awakenings, senses being unravelled upside down and finally his body and "I" disappearing forever. He explains that he was left blank.
  12. What I found most curious about U.G is that he says again and again that whatever happened to him, happened in spite of all the work he had done before. Also when pushed about that he says: He rejects all gurus, religions, traditions, paths, philosophies, and spirituality. He is often accused of radical skepticism, although he also rejects skepticism. It is important to be aware of this background when listening to him. He deeply questions epistemology and how we can know anything at all, or if there ever was an "I" or enlightenment. It was through a lengthy video that I began to unravel the essence of him. Understanding him becomes challenging when he asserts that communication is not possible, and he has no interest in making others understand. To truly grasp his perspective, a genuine desire to comprehend him is necessary; otherwise, one may give up along the way and miss out on something truly unique.
  13. After all my self development and spiritual work I thought I would be prepared to die and I would let go with wisdom and peace. Then I tried salvia (called also the backdoor to death) and well I cried and screamed like a baby, I'm surprised I didn't shit my pants. I cried to God, to guru, to anything or anyone that could help me, I was absolutely helpless, wanting to have any anchor in reality whatever it was. All was futile, I was dying and there was anything at all I could do. After death, the experience was interesting, but it pales in comparison with the intensity of dying. I had ego deaths in the past but with salvia you really die... I mean the shit hits the fan and it gets so real.
  14. Question: Which is the best path to Self-knowledge? Mataji: All paths are good. It depends on the man's Samskaras, his conditioning, the tendencies he has brought over from previous births. Just as one can travel over to the same place by plane, railway, car or cycle, so also different lines of approach suit different kinds of people. But the best path is the one which the Guru points out. Question: when there is only one, why are there so many different religions in the world? Mataji: Because He is infinite, there is an infinite varieties of conception of Him and an endless varieties of path to Him. He is everything, every kind of belief, and also the disbelief of the atheist. Your belief in non-belief is also a belief. When you speak of disbelief it implies that you admit belief. He is in all forms and yet He is formless. Question: From what you said I gather that you consider the formless nearer to truth than God with form? Mataji: Is ice anything but water? Form is as much He as the formless. To say that there is only one Self(Atma) and all forms are illusion would imply that the formless was nearer to truth than God-with-form. But this body declares: every form and the formless are God and God alone.
  15. Nope that does not work. I have been with an amazing girl for 4 years and after 1 year and a half I had my first awakening. The point is that now she is very interested and after some psychedelic experiences she is definetely more open but it's just not her time. Be careful not to fall on this trap of everyone should be conscious and I'm here to help people evolve. Everyone is in their journey, assist them in their own journey, don't try to inject your values into other people. By your own transformation, energy and sex, she will be more open. Psychedelics are key in this procces to help them have a point of reference to what you experience daily. WIthout point of reference you are fucked up really. It's very important that she has a point of reference of what you are doing but beyond that, it's her life and soul journey.
  16. I don't think it. It happens. From that experience, thoughts label it as I'm more conscious.
  17. https://neal.fun/absurd-trolley-problems/ This webpage test will put you in very interesting ethical reflections. It's a very interesting experience, post here your feedback. For me, the questions have put me in very challenging scenarios
  18. do you know anything at all about crypto mining? This is lesson 0 lol You can mine up to 21 million bitcoin, no more. However, this is seen as a huge problem which just shows how lost you in this topic. As miners are the ones who support transactions. A problem solved by Ethereum which has a theoretically infinite supply, which has many benefits but also drawbacks as everything in life. Also, you seem ver unware of how money has been printed out of the blue because of covid. This technology does not allow this type of outside modifications. It is a stable system and much more intelligent than the current one. However, how to make the transition is the only legit discussion to have and one that represents really huge challenges. But which system is better as the default one, there is no doubt about.
  19. WE NEED TO MAKE A DISTINCTION HERE: One thing is the crypto technology itself. Another whole can of worms is the speculation done with the use of this tecnology. If you talked with an economist 20 years ago and told them that we would have a fully global new monetary structure, decentralized, uncorruptable, anonymous and secure; he would have laughed at you. Yet cryptos are exactly this technology. It makes sense that in the era of internet, a coin bornt from internet becomes the new idea of value and money. If you want to invest in cryptos to get rich you are stupid. If you don't see how cryptos are the new money you are stupid.
  20. The understanding of this quote is enough for God-Realization. The reader is invited to reflect on each word and the overall meaning. I like how the possibility of being God is open in this quote yet it is said that even in so called "not being God" God is all there is, alone.
  21. Do sport before hand. Yoga and stretching works good also. Get you heart pumping and then relax. Lsd will not flow properly if you are not balanced in your energetic field at higher doses. Intention and meditation is key. If you are gonna fast during the trip take some vitamins when you would feel like eating but the psychedelic simply doesn't allow it
