Here by “escaping Maya” you mean Death right?

You basically have the whole eternity after death to explore the bottomless ocean of God. But your time here on earth is limited. Why don’t you use the few years you have left here to enjoy the (illusion of) company of other humans and be more loving? Isn’t this the whole point of incarnating here?

Because of your health issues? Or do you think you’re too ugly?

Would it be possible to upload your ego (meaning all your memories, emotions, character, preferences, etc.) to a computer/robot? Imagine like a neuralink that stores your memories and gives you the possibility to access them on will. And there is a camera which you can become aware of as if it were a second pair of eyes. Now imagine a full humanoid robot that you are able to control and fully experience. In this state, if your real body dies, can your ego get then trapped in that robot?

Is this somehow connected to remote viewing? Like you get out of your body to see an external place, even far away?

Would you be okay with only ever being with one girl? Let's say the first girl you get into a relationship with is amazing and perfect for you. Would you think you miss out something in life if you don't experience what it feels like to be with at least another different girl?

Lol I just discovered about the 37% Rule. The 37% Rule, in the context of partner searching, suggests that you should spend the first 37% of your dating life (or any time period where you are actively seeking a partner) in exploration and gathering information, without committing to any particular person. Then, you should settle for the first person you meet after that who is better than all the ones you've already met. This rule is based on the idea of the Secretary Problem, a mathematical optimization problem. Elaboration: Exploration Phase: The initial 37% is dedicated to exploring various options without making a long-term commitment. This allows you to gain a broader perspective on potential partners and understand your own preferences better. The "Keeper": Once you've completed the exploration phase, the next person you meet who surpasses your previous experiences becomes the "keeper". Mathematical Basis: The 37% rule is derived from the Secretary Problem, which aims to maximize the chance of hiring the best candidate when interviewing a group of candidates one by one. Practical Application: In the context of dating, this means spending a significant portion of your dating years exploring different people and situations before settling down.

Apparently it’s legal in Germany. Any experiences?

I recently came across this review. I know I need to be extra careful with what I read on the internet, but the studies they link come from official sources and seem pretty convincing. What do you think? https://www.sott.net/article/338885-A-comprehensive-review-of-the-many-health-benefits-of-smoking-Tobacco

Also perhaps it’s worth pointing out that corruption is not inherently bad. Nothing is inherently bad. The key is to understand that everything is love. This includes corruption.

Because it's the only way for you to even exist. Without corruption there would be no survival, and without survival there is no life.

Have you tried nicotine pouches like ZYN? Any difference with real tobacco?

So you occasionally smoke when going out?

According to google, most foods (e.g. cooked meals, milk, yogurt, juices, etc.) can be left outside of the fridge for maximum 2 hours. After which they say it becomes unsafe to eat. Is this true? I find it hard to believe because then how the heck did people survive until a few decades ago when there was no fridge?

Is there any truth to this? Has any of you come into contact with jesus / christ / the holy spirit? How was it like and how did you do it?

Cannabis. Meditating on cannabis can sometimes feel like a psychedelic experience. It's legal in many places + easy to obtain. Harm can be minimized if using a dry herb vaporizer or edibles, and keeping use sparse.

Raw vegetables are very hard to break down and digest. Yet popular raw food movements have us convinced that raw vegetables are the most nutritious thing on the planet (I remember thinking so! And smashing those raw veggie platters at parties, thinking I was having a great low calorie snack 🤦🏻‍♀️) When it comes to nutrient-dense food, we must remember the difference between nutrient content vs. nutrient bioavailability. A food may contain some amount of nutrients, but how much of those nutrients are we actually able to absorb in our digestive tract? When it comes to raw vegetables, there are two potential problems. The first is anti-nutrients, which are naturally occurring compounds that can reduce the absorption of some nutrients. The second is raw vegetables are just really hard to break down and digest. Remember high school biology class where we discussed the difference between plant and animal cells? For many vegetables, some of the important nutrients are contained within those tough cell walls. So, when thinking about the best food for humans, we must consider those tough cell walls. Cooking vegetables can improve digestion by breaking down or pre-digesting those tough fibers in the cell walls & the anti-nutrients. Which not only reduces the digestive burden in your gut, but also improves nutrient availability. Here are just 2 examples of how cooking vegetables improves some of the nutrient availability: 1. Raw cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, collard greens, kale, Brussel sprouts, etc.) contain goitrogens which can inhibit the thyroid’s utilization and uptake of iodine. Thus, eating a lot of these raw veggies can suppress thyroid function, leading to a slower metabolism and impaired hormone production. However, cooking cruciferous vegetables significantly reduces levels of goitrogens. 2. Raw spinach is loaded with oxalic acid, an anti-nutrient that blocks the absorption of calcium and zinc. Oxalates are broken down under high temps when veggies are cooked. Yes, you will lose some of the Vitamin C and B Vitamins since these are water soluble nutrients. But Vitamin C is an easy nutrient to get from fruit, and B vitamins are high in liver and animal products. Plus, if you are making a soup or stew, the water-soluble vitamins and minerals are leached into the broth/soup, which you consume in the end.

If you write a diary would love to read it later!

Be careful, people who seem “spiritual” on the surface are often dealing with heavy traumas that they try to escape through spirituality. Are you sure you’d want to date such a girl?

Cannabis, just like other psychedelics, requires you to be in perfect health if you want to use it. If you have any issues with hormones, thyroid, etc. (like most people have nowadays) it can become quite unpredictable. However, when one is truly healthy, there can also be value in using it once in a while. I find it allows for deeper introspection, better ability to concentrate during meditation, and deeper insights during contemplation. Similar to a psychedelic trip but when you don't want to go as deep in. Also, it's easier to get where it's legal. Moreover, there are many strategies to mitigate the negative effects of MJ: Vaporizing it (so avoiding combustion) in a dry herb vaporizer. supplementing L-Theanine: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7842745 supplementing COX-2 inhibitors (aspirin, curcumin, ginger): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3918429 Chronic marijuana use can lead to memory problems due to the internalization of CB1 receptors, which also affects NMDA receptors critical for memory function, learning, and synaptic plasticity, and this effect is exacerbated by the natural decline of NMDA receptors with age. Studies suggest that Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR) may counteract these memory deficits by increasing NMDA receptor numbers or attenuating their decline, with users reporting noticeable improvements in memory after a few days of ALCAR supplementation.

Over the last 5 years I regularly smoked weed, sometimes daily sometimes weekly. Usually 2+ times a week. In this time I've: - graduated with top honors in the best univerity in my country (EU), without failing a single exam; - got my dream job, great salary; - got into an amazing relationship with my girlfriend; - achieved a top notch physique, 8% bodyfat and jacked. And I think lots of it is thanks to weed. For me, it feels as though it works as a nootropic; similar to the one in the movie "Limitless". It's almost like my brain is working more effectively, I can connect the dots and see the bigger picture in things. Any idea why this is the case? Could there be any supplement that would provide me similar benefits? Please also note that I mitigate the negative side effects of weed by: - vaporizing it (so avoiding combustion) in a dry herb vaporizer - supplementing L-Theanine: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7842745 - supplementing COX-2 inhibitors (aspirin, curcumin, ginger): https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3918429

@Leo Gura when can we expect the course for awakened cognition? Looking forward to it

It's continuing to escalate

Can you share the names of those studios? 😁
