I can agree. My partner which is very femenine and has also gone through very traumatic events in her life had a great time in Salvia. I was absolutely shocked when after taking it she started to laugh histerically. I'm telling you, Salvia does everything to me except making me want to laugh. She was able to fully let go and go with the experience and she enjoyed ir very much. She enjoys peak experiences like skydiving and rollercoasters and she also has endured a lot of paind and suffering in her life. With that background, Salvia can be great.

I'll start: What is GOD? What am I? What is Reality? What is Truth? What is Consciousness? What is Love? What is Infinity? What is Absolute? What is Life? What is ego? What is survival? What is blue? What is beingness or isness? What is existence? What is duality? What is oneness? What is a question? What is an answer? What is a paradox? What is creativity? What is intelligence? What is nothingness? What is everything? What is the All? What is irreducible? How to live the good life? How to be happy? What is the funniest joke in existence? What is silence? What is the purpouse/meaning of Reality? What is it all about?

Pure fear, the fear you experience when you are being killed, complete confusion, ungroundedness. Your don't remember you are on Salvia, you have no memories, you are for a wild ride. Also the benefits can be extraordinary, specially death wise. If you trip long enough with Salvia you can overcome the fear of death fully, suffering and even pain I would say. It has inmense benefits but because of chemical reactions it activates the same responses in your brain as if you were quitting opiods and you were a long life user. So you get to explore the most exotic corners of consciousness at the prize of having a chemical reaction in your body of fear and confusion. This sounds technical but you will feel it in your bones when you are tripping on it. Also Salvia does not seem to induce God-Realizations this is why I'm reluctant to keep exploring this substance. It's more like exploring the most anti-human like states of consciousness, it is very alien and different to any other state of consciousness I have been in. Buy dry leaves, not extracts. Smoke them in a pipe with a jet flame and hold in +20 seconds. This is great for contemplation, it is amazing and I've experienced inmense benefits. However from 10x up things get very very intense, at least for me. Other people need more quantity it depends a whole lot on your body but experiential wise it is the same. So my point is that it's very hard to let go and surrender. First of all it's a peak experience like no other. Maybe DMT crushes me but Salvia is just so intense. You cannot contemplate you are just a consciousness having a random permutation of it's infinite possibilities. You don't remember you have taken on Salvia, you are just in shock, pure and utter shock. How are you going to search for God or contemplate if you don't remember you took Salvia or anything in regards to your life, who you are, what are you doing and you just have this expierence of fear and very wacky things going on, which you interpret as wrong because you have that fear feeling. It takes a lot of maturity that I honestly don't have, Salvia has humbled me in that sense. How much deep work you need to have done to be chill even if you are not human, this is almost drilling a conscious state of letting go not in your human self but in your consciousness itself. To trust, to surrender and go with it. Then I'm sure Salvia will show you things that no other psychedelic can show you, not even close, and I say this very confidently. Last words, Salvia is amazing don't get me wrong I'm in love with it. But not gonna lie to you like it's a pleasant experience, chemically it is impossible, it does not trigger anything in your brain to cause you any pleasure as other psychedelics do. Salvia is it's own thing, Salvia is it's own category. Salvia is also a very good training for life, if you can keep cool in a high concentration Salvia extract, you can be chill with the rest of psychedelics and in life in general. I feel SO much safer in life after Salvia. It's like you experience such a bizarre, dificult and life-transforming experience that you see life from another perspective. You learn to let go more and trust. Also ego death in Salvia is... well let's say less psychological or consciouss as with other psychedelics... It's more REAL. If you care about truth and exploring consciousness more than having always pleasurable experiences, then Salvia is perfect for you.

This is the way I see it: Would you write to a nobel prize physicist saying you understand better String theory than him? Why do you do that with Leo? This is his everyday job and purpose in life, for you it's just a hobby or side passion. Who is being arrogant? The nobel prize physicist for telling you that you really don't understand string theory? Or you are the arrogant one for thinking that you understand it better? Also be careful not to fall into the fallacy of authority but sometimes it is the case that you can be far inferior in understanding than other people.

That's honestly the most beautiful thing anyone has ever said to me

I agree, everything falls into place when you recognise who you are

You have no idea what Salvia is. I'm still trying to figure out the sense of Salvia. It takes you to the most bizarre corners of consciousness. Integration is very hard when smoking extracts, because it's just so different to your normal state of consciousness that you don't know what do with it. Prepare yourself and go up slowly in extracts potency, you can easily traumatize yourself for the rest of your life.

Mushrooms have a lot of wisdom packed. Lsd is more free to explore which can lead to great results or just doing your best but not knowing any better. With mushrooms they really do guide you, they heal you and they make you arrive to higher conclusions. For example, if you have a problem on LSD you will solve it but on mushrooms you may come up with a whole different side show to that problem, like talking with a wise entity that has helped people in your situation for millenia and that can offer a new perspective beside just solving it. This is the reason why mushrooms are the best for what you ask, they will guide you. However, they are not the best for contemplation because you may want to contemplate on God for example but mushrooms want to heal the relationship with your parents and a lot of shadow and ego stuff you still carry or they mushrooms may want you to think about your life purpose or maybe you can contemplate. This with lsd does not happen at all, if you want to contemplate something you take lsd and you will do it 100%. This is my experience, if you want personal growth mushrooms are your go. The only problem with them are integration, the trip can be short, so once in a while do lsd so that you are 12h tripping and the insights really penetrate your being. Mushrooms will help you a lot and gibe you a roadmap to acoomplish it but the time you are tripping also matters. Also ketamine can be great for personal growth specially when you think you have problems. Ketamine will be like: Are problems holding you or are you holding the problems? Also MDMA can be great for love healing. Just a good trip a year will help you heal all the love your family, friends and life never gave you, which can be really rewarding for personal growth. It kind of kills the shadow in you by love but M can be problematic if you are not wise enough so watch out if you have addictive tendencies. With the other substances I mentioned you will not encounter this problem.

This video is very good. Don't take into accound the title or the cover. The content is worth it

You are comparing apples and oranges. One thing is human/relative development and another thing is transcendental development. They usually go hand by hand but not necceasarly as you have discovered. The main problem is that transcendental devolpment gets very corrupted when it is reinterpreted from a low ego/cognitive stage. But the states are legit as you pointed out. Ken Wilber's core work points to this difference between states and stages. States are free (aka mystical experiences) and stages are earned. You occasionally have normies experiencing epiphanies, the same way you can get hit by a lightning. Most of them think they are losing their mind however. You can also have extremely intelligent and developed individuals that are deeply unaware of the higher states of consciousness. This is also the core difference between the east and the west. One is focused on states and the other in stages. Hence the problematic, they lose this higher perspective that we are constructing here. This is why Actualized.org is such a gift because it excels in both domains.

Iboga can kill you. Just wanted to mention that, so be careful with the dose. Stay safe and use drugs smartly.

I tried lots of things, but in fact only 4 things worked. I stopped using fluoride. Lots of hours of binaural beats and deep concentration every day. Wearing high quality Rudraksha from different mukhis. Transmissions of shakti or even better, initiations. A good initation can really do it. As they say it's the transmission of the fire, or you can create the fire yourself. This is how I did it. But it's not as incredible as one may think. You may manifest some siddhis but nothing crazy. It's more about deep intuition and conection with reality, a higher quality clear mind. Also don't fool yourself if you do not manifest any real tangible siddhi your third eye is not awake sorry. This is in fact is one of the most no bullshit things that I have found in spirituality. If you manifest powers (body scanning, moving objects...) your third eye is awake, it's this simple. Obviously third eye is much much more than siddhis but third eye ALWAYS comes with siddhis as a gift, new faculties awaken as you are evolving into a more conscious being.

Do you recommend doing some tea for the first intake and then lemon tek?

I heard that if you don't take all the dose at once your trip just lasts longer but it does not increase the potency, is this true? I plan to eat magic truffles Valhalla. I want to go deep, but the come up in mushrooms can be uncomfortable. This is why I thought about a more progressive come up. Also any tips to make the come up more clean? For example, LSD come up is absolutely gorgeous, however mushrooms are like an elevator, we'll have to wait till the doors open and then I can enjoy. I have heard about lemon tek, any other advice? Please talk from direct experience otherwise be honest and share your source of information.

Found this online but I'm surprised that this applies even for 1h difference between intakes

I'm dead serious of this work. Thank you for your level of involvelment Leo.

Put it into proper context please. You understood me perfectly, everyone that read that quote also understood it correctly. Don't play games with me.

I have a very strict forward method to know how truthfull a teacher is. How much bullshit he receives? The more, the better he is. If at some point they want to kill Leo you know he is arriving at his peak. The ignorance of how sages fit in society historically shines for his absence here. If someone speaks the Truth, he must get bullshit, there is no other way around. Sidenote: Intelligence is like a knife. Leo's mind is so trained to dissect and cut through all the bullshit that it's hard to use it or receive it without being cut. It's simply the way things are. Go to a bhakti master and drown in his love if that is your path, or be still in silence if that is your path, but Leo is a sage and that implies a diamond mind that cuts everything and itself.

1: Lack of proper methods to achieve mistical experiences 2: Lack of modern saints that embody the christian principles and path

I had an absurd realization on mushrooms where I was like, wow all my life wanting to attaing God-Realization and now I'm trapped in God. It's a very curios feeling to say the least, to be trapped in God, all is God, I'm trapped in God, I'm also God but that was more in the background, being trapped in the neverending self was the point of that realization. It wasn't a God-Realization it was more a recognition of all is God and I felt trapped in God existentially speaking. Well just wanted to share it

Watch this video if you still have doubts come back. Trust me, we have all been there and it's part of the path to be all over the place between the relative and the absolute.

@Leo Gura If this is the case, are you more open now to experience salvia? One of the many reasons I'm exploring salvia it's because it's such a profound training for your mind, psyche and consciousness. I've been having very inexplicable trips with Salvia, and I'm honestly very very very surprised you just tried Salvia once. I remember how you said that the biggest mistake you could have made is trying 5meo and then being terrorized and not trying it again, but you were wise enough to go again and again and again. Yet you just did Salvia once, experienced this super weird state of consciousness, and as far as I know you haven't done it anymore. Let's be honest, I must confess that I'm trying to convince you to try salvia again because I'm very puzzled by it and find no mature inquiry on this otherworldly substance. Salvia is extremely different to any other psychedelics, and I'm again surprised you have not fallen in love with that. I'm just so intrigued by such bizarre and alien trips. I hope you have now the same higher wisdom you had with 5meo to go again and again and again to the Salvia realm.

I wanted to make another thread but just gonna ask. Anyone has done LSD + mushrooms?
