  1. As low as you can find - salvia is the one substance you don't want to push your luck with. If you consider yourself a very experienced psychonaut - 10x; if you have any doubts whatsoever - 5x or even lower.
  2. Ahem... Do you mind providing ONE example of a non-duality teacher saying that ALL dualities must break? As far as I'm aware, the only duality they ever speak about is subject-object duality (the illusion of an observer perceiving the phenomena that are separate from him).
  3. Boy do I have a meticulously curated collection of "10/10 personal favorite live performances". It's heavily biased towards female vocals, sue me. Here are some random picks: Igorrr - Tout Petit Moineau (Live at Dour Festival 2014) - o_O Portishead - Roads (Live at Roseland NYC) - What I wouldn't give to see Portishead perform live with an orchestra. Nightwish - Ghost Love Score (Live in Buenos Aires 2012) - Saw them live in 2015. Man, the 9:28 hit me like a freight train. Lisa Gerrard and Pieter Bourke - Sacrifice - They don't make 'em like this anymore...
  4. Oh god, what a genius movie! It literally put tears of joy in my eyes the first time I saw it, although no one else I discussed it with seems to think much of this "weird crap"; oh well. It's one of the best deconstructions of the anthropocentric paradigm - snaps you right out of it, if you allow it. Alien lifeform's total, brutal disregard for "host's'" life, death, bodily integrity, sanity or suffering results, nevertheless, in forms that we can't help but call beautiful and aesthetic, if a bit (or a lot) grotesque. And this, I think, is a very good illustration of what the Absolute is "up to", to the extent we can even discuss such things: it does not care about meaning, or life, or, really, any one thing in particular - IT JUST. EXPLORES. FORM. And every form it produces is, in its own way, beautiful - though some of them might be more difficult for us to appreciate from our finite perspective. Leo's Quote #006 instantly reminded me of this movie; I wonder if it was inspired by it to some extent.
