@Salvijus cant speak on that, only watched the one interview with him. his points were all extremely methodical and well structured, right until he dropped the "god gets pissed if u dont believe in him" which was abrupt as fuck

i agree totally, these are my experiences as well, and they seem completely undenieably true. it just seems waaaaaay too good to be true, but i THINK IT IS. oh my fucking god. it is true. the proof is right in front of me. exploring infinite imagination for all eternity........

I watched a decently long interview with this fellow, agreeing with a lot of stuff he was saying, right up until he said that God will punish you and send you to hell if you dont believe in him. lol.

yes i will be looking forward to this

Literally the most natural thing i've ever experienced. Nothing new was added at all, illusory filters were simply removed

@RightHand @Jowblob ty friends!

@Slizzer nope its tomorrow. safe to say im pretty excited / nervous xDD will definetely post a trip report afterwards.

I will be having my first 5meo trip in a few days. ive researched it for years, prepared myself for years. i feel like im ready, even through i know thats probably not possible haha. but i feel like its the right time. the last 3 years has been nonstop spiritual development day and night. THIS IS IT, god im nervous and excited lol. feel free to send me vibes and maybe tips for my preperation week? i plan on cutting all media and technological devices the days before, doing nothing but meditating probably.

i have my first 5meo trip in 2 days, and im having difficulty finding information on drug interactions - i use melatonin and magnesiumoxid daily, am i good using these the night before the trip?

i think i get your point, i like it. i'll be having my first 5meo trip in 2 days, hopefully i will get some of the stuff you're talking about at a deeper level. thanks for the replies

i dont get how consciousness isnt constant then

if its not constant then what is it arising out of? and whatever that is, would that not be prior to consciousness?

@gettoefl i would say that content of the now comes and goes, consciousness is constant

where does it begin and where does it end tho? notice the past does not exist. only NOW exists, and its impossible to locate both the beginning and the end of the NOW. its eternal, no beginning, no end.

but its hard to argue against the fact that behind your eyes, there is Nothingness. in deep sleep, there is Nothingness. and Nothingness, in virtue of it being Nothing, permiates all of existence. I think its fair to draw a distinction between Nothingness and consciousness, but also notice that the Nothingness EXISTS. which to me indicates that it is still a certain degree of consciousness, and thus consciousness can plausibly be viewed a the Absolute imo. But one should not lightly cast away the notion of Nothingness, since it is the closest thing to an antithesis of consciousness that exists

@Leo Gura whats ur take on the Absolute being Nothingness, beyond consciousness? several spiritual traditions seem to point to this

yes agree, but my point is that the claim can be made that consciousness is still there even when experience / all objects of consciousness ceases. consciousness is just not aware of itself, since it can only know that it exists through duality. but yes again, semantics.

ive been contemplating this consciousness duality. the fact that without an object of consciousness, consciousness ceases. im not sure i think thats true. i think it can be argued that consciousness actually IS the absolute, unchanging true Nothingness/deep sleep, from which all things, including experience emerge. the nature of consciousness is simply such that if it has nothing to know itself in relation to (duality), it cannot know that it itself actually exists. so the vast Nothingness without apperances (absolute) is actually pure consciousness. but its consciousness which is not aware of itself, since consciousness only can know that it exists through duality. Nothingness still has to be Something, since it is something that can actually be experienced, through cessation or deep sleep, meaning there is still a degree of sentience present.

@RightHand hello, no, ive been able to find a facilitator who lives near me. i will be vaping it

@Leo Gura i miss u posting spiritual stuff. love this description of awakening

beautiful, absolutley agree with this. eternity equals consciousness

at this point i dont really believe in deep sleep. multiple times have i awoken seemingly from a deep sleep, only to moments later specifically remember going from dreaming state to waking state. forgotten dreams mimic deep sleep

its actually fucking insane people are being forced to fight in shitty wars. wtf.

thats such an epic one liner.

that does sound like retardation
