Can you or someone else elaborate ? What are is "symptoms" ?

Yeah psychedelics after you start doing energy work can be incredible. Have you guys tried taking psychedelics before a reiki session ? In what dosage ? Apparently the combo mushrooms reiki can be amazing https://www.reddit.com/r/reiki/comments/a5kmkw/reiki_psychedelics/ @Nahm do you have an insight on this ?

I was curious about this so I went looking. The guy from Psyched substance tried the combo, but it doesn't tell in what dosages. The video is interesting.

This was posted in the High Consciousness Resources section, but I found it amazing so I want to share it here. Must watch for anyone interested in psychedelics or the Wim hof method. One fascinating quote : "When we administered LSD to rats, we saw a ten fold increase in the level of endogenous 5 meo dmt, and a 400% increase in N'N-DMT. This suggest that there is an endogenous hallucinogen Neuronal system, and that many hallucinogen may not actually be true hallucinogen, but endogenous hallucinogen neuronal system agonist" Dr. Steven Barker

This documentary is amazing ! Must watch. @Leo Gura have a look. I am sure you will love it. One interesting quote : "When we administered LSD to rats, we saw a ten fold increase in the level of endogenous 5 meo dmt, and a 400% increase in N'N-DMT.

But of course I do feel compassion for hedge fund managers ! It must be hard not to have a strong ego being so successful and wealthy. These people must suffer quite a lot. Really I feel compassion for anyone still suffering to some degree, myself included.

Hum maybe you can get insights that stay with you somehow. I am curious about this.

Hum potential shadow alert for using terms like these. Could it be that you are not fully embracing the part of you that wants to make a lot of money in a egotistic way (or at least in a not purely conscious way) ? I remember you saying that you could extract millions of dollars from Actualized.org and that's aways tempting. And don't you feel compassion for day traders ? They must be pretty asleep if this is their main occupation. And by the way what you write trigger me sometimes a little bit, so I get to work on my own shadows reading your comments

Made a screenshot of this. Thank you for this great answer !

First thank you everyone that was a great read! What she mentioned has little to do with ambition, which I define as feeling a drive to have an impact in the world, to change people's life. If her man was on a similar inner journey than her, would that make him ambitious ? He could be full of life and energy, always wanting to do a learn new things + going deep into spiritually, without having any drive to have an impact. If a western guy feels a profound calling, then and quits everything to go live as a monk. Is that ambition ? The drive for the inner journey and the drive to have an impact seem like 2 different issues. And Leo ambition seems to be a big deal for you. Does it come from a pure place of love, with a powerful sense of wanting to make the world a better place ? Or do you care about having an impact ?

Maybe consider the possibility that you could be deeply fulfilled even if you never become a mother, or if you become a mother but your man end up dumping you. Facing situations that your ego find very difficult can be opportunities to let go and find peace (speaking from personal experience). And you obviously have trauma related to this part of your life. You will not heal until you embrace and love that part of you that is hurt. Try to meditate for a bit, then think about all the people you love and everything you are grateful for in life. When you feel full of love, send that love to the part of you that feels vulnerable. Then cry if you feel like it

@Preety_India I understand you and I feel love for you. I hope you will feel this same beautiful and healing love for the part of you that fears and suffers.

State transference as a big impact in game. So if you spend some time with a girl feel peaceful and joyful, she will start feeling that way as well. It works the same with sexual desire. Eye contact play a big role in that dynamic. Do no fap for a month and see what happens ! Of course if you are being so horny that it makes you needy, then the girl will feel the neediness as well and it will be a big turnoff. So find the right balance that works for you. If you can get to a place in your life where you don't need anything, then the hornier you are the more attractive you will be to women.

What would a world without wage slavery look like ? Do you have a blog post or video that explore this topic in depth ?

Well Leo is still deeply stuck in ego. You have to accept him and love him where he is at. ps : practicing my trolling skills

Hello all, Just want to share that using acupressure mats during LSD/mushroom trips is a great combo for me. https://www.amazon.com/acupressure-mats/s?k=acupressure+mats Also you can look at this thread for more tools and techniques to deepen trips:

@Intraplanetary Direct transmissions of non dual states of consciousness are in my experience the best way to increase your baseline state of consciousness. It is really amazing. Look on this site to learn more : https://www.venantwong.com (I am sure there are other modalities) If you are the sensitive or empath type this can be incredibly life transforming. This is also a transmission of kundalini energy, progressively waking up your own kundalini energy at just the right pace for your energy system. The whole process also has great synergy with psychedelic trips ! (at least in my experience) @Space said "I should note that ever since having this 'energetic awakening' with 5-MeO, I get the vibratory body healing effects with all other psychedelics at any dose." I have the same vibratory body healing effect during trips since I started KAP (or pretty much anytime tensions appear in my body). The Wim Hof method is also a powerful tool for raising consciousness. The growth you get from 5-10 min of ice showers every day is awesome ! (even better if you can do ice baths)

This is a very good answer. I will add that trips help massively to release trauma (or anything that you resisted emotionally in your life, aka energy blockages). The pain body is a huge distraction from presence and therefore emotional healing has a big impact on your baseline state of consciousness. Edit : I will add we are all traumatised to some degree growing up. If someone thinks that healing trauma is not really a big issue for him/her, I would suggest to reconsider.

Any true understanding is beyond concept no ? You said it yourself "Understanding is a much deeper thing than concepts. You can understand beyond concept or knowledge. Isn't this deeper understanding what you truly care about. So why do you say conceptual understanding is the bulk of your life's work? Also isn't your passion for understanding a form of seeking ? If that's the case don't you think that it reinforces your sense of self, because you need a self to be in seeking mode. It seems to me that at some point on the spiritual path, there needs to be a shift from seeking to understand to simply being. Do you disagree ? Are you at a point where you could do a 30-60 days vipassana meditation retreat (or solo retreat) and spend most of that time in the incredibly blissful state of being, with literally no thoughts appearing in your mind? If this would be somewhat difficult for you (it would be for me!), don't you think you could do with a little more being and a little less seeking to understand ? Would you not get all of the insights you care about simply by being, with downloads ? I am asking these questions because I have myself a pretty curious mind, but I wonder if this not all just a distraction from simply being (like going on walks, meditation...). it seems that I can integrate the insights I get as a result of this curious mind, to help me on my path. Like sometimes I read something on this forum and get shivers as something clicks and I intuitively understand something. So it is apparently beneficial. But I wonder if my mind is not deceiving me with all of this curiosity. Maybe every time I have an impulse to understand or contemplate, I should simply observe and let go of the impulse. @Forestluv and @Nahm (or anyone else!) I would love to have your take on this. edit : Also you saying that Contemplation is "so core that I don't even consider it core. It's just the air I breathe as I go about my day." sounds like the seeking energy is always present in you, with little space for simply being.

It seems to me that at a point of "true enlightenment", with absolutely no sense of self and separation left, all of the above could indeed dissipate, but I don't know.

As an exemple of that, I love this guy and consider him more awake than Leo (very liberated vibe), but he can still believe dumb things like "Yes Trump is fighting a cabal of pedophiles who want to enslave humanity" (paraphrasing).

Yeah Sadhguru's obvious bias regarding psychedelics is a good example of that.

Many spiritual teachers talk about a mass awakening happening right now that will accelerate in the decade to come. Some say it comes in part from a shift in energies on the planet. How can you be sure that a mass awakening will take so long to happen ? Maybe in 10-20 years the level of consciousness of the average people will be vastly higher.

I always thought psychedelics were not recommended for people with bipolar disorder. Apparently they can help with this issue as well! Read the following article for more info: https://medium.com/happy-brain-club/the-woman-who-accidentally-took-550-doses-of-lsd-in-one-hit-b20602677e8 "Another unfortunate young lady, still only 15, was a sufferer of hallucinations, paranoia and bipolar disorder. At a party, she was accidentally given ten times the intended dose (always check your decimal places!). She then drank the leftovers from a couple of other glasses. That’s a lot of LSD for a young girl. Again, there was little deliberate movement in the hours to come – about six hours this time - with her appearing to have a seizure, and she was taken to hospital in an ambulance. It’s unclear if she really was having a seizure, or just reacting to the intense journey she was on inside her head. When she became coherent again, she found her father sat beside her hospital bed. “It’s over,” she reportedly said to her father when she came around, who thought she was talking about her massive LSD experience. But she wasn’t referring to that at all. The thing that was now over was her bipolar disorder – and she remained clear of her mental health issues for the next 13 years."

"Why do most traversing the path towards enlightenment abstain from this" So first semen retention as tremendous power and will accelerate spiritual development. Read this if you want to know more : https://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/dqwuat/benefits_after_50_days_of_semen_retention/ Secondly, there is apparently an impact on your system when you have sex, which can make it harder to spiritually awaken. Sadhguru say you take in a lot of "memory" from your sexual partners. He also says "if you pick up enormous amount of memory, it will become later one very difficult to remain peaceful and joyful in your life, simply because there is confusing memories in the system". If you want to learn more watch this video : But of course someone can awaken even with a active or very active sexual life. It is just probably more difficult.
