  1. Ah yes of course, thanks for clarifying that. I forgot about the potency difference between fresh and dried.
  2. @SQAAD I've definitely experienced some of the things you've written here. I think the main piece of advice we can give is to just give it time. You might be feeling uncomfortable and depressed at the moment, but you'll soon come out of it and feel better. Bad trips are common, its part of the process. Try not to get too caught up in negative thinking. Re-frame it as a learning experience. Mushrooms are notoriously prone to creating weird, hard-to-understand trips. I feel like its quite easy to have a bad experience with mushrooms. You should consider trying to get some 5-MeO. Also, 30 grams?! Isn't that an absurdly high dose?
  3. Great post, thanks for sharing. I'll be trying to implement the above going forward.
  4. Not really. You can have no thoughts but still be in ego-consciousness. There is still a sense of separation, individuality, and identification with the body when the mind is silent. What you are is also not dependent on a quiet mind. There are also degrees of silence. Anyone can stop their thoughts for a few seconds or longer with some basic meditation. But that doesn't mean they're conscious of what they are. However that silence can be much deeper and longer. Its quite difficult to put into words. The deeper the silence in between thoughts the more conscious you are of what you are.
  5. Seems relevant to post this here. Definitely worth a listen.
  6. Yes I have experienced nausea in most of my 5-MeO sessions. The body feeling on the come up is usually very intense, quite unpleasant and comes with lots of anxiety and fear. But i've found it goes away quite quickly -within 5-10 minutes max. In one session I didn't have any of that, come up was smooth as butter and just slipped into non duality consciousness. I feel that the pre-trip state of mind plays a big role in this. I've plugged 30mg, but be warned, this experience is beyond comprehension and will utterly mindfuck you. Definitely get a good mg scale. You can get a suitable mg scale off amazon.
  7. Dentist x-rays are not dangerous or harmful. They emit a small amount of radiation but its not going to effect you in any significant or noticeable way. Regarding the after effects of your amalgam removal, experiencing tiredness and moodiness is quite common. You probably had some sort of intense anaesthetic which is quite a shock to the system. Just disturbing your teeth, drilling stuff out etc can be quite a shock to the body. You may also have had some mild exposure to mercury during the extraction. I spent 2 weeks after my removal feeling extremely depressed and anxious. Faded after a while. You can also chelate with DMSA soon after your amalgam removal so you can consider doing that as well.
  8. TM can definitely be an effective practise. I'm not denying the efficacy of the technique, just the importance of a specific individual mantra. I'm not sure how the technique works.
  9. @bazera One of the few meditation practises I haven't ever tried. But I know about the teacher charging you money for an exclusive mantra. My best friend does this. To be honest it seems like a total scam to me. A special mantra might be useful or applicable to that top 1% spiritually gifted and hyper sensitive meditators, but for most people the specific mantra you use is probably largely unimportant. Regarding the students, has TM actually changed their lives or are do they just think/believe it has? What are they more conscious of now that they were not before?
  10. @Godishere Says who? Not everyone has an existential crisis. For some the dropping away is quite simple and often filled with joy and laughter.
  11. I was going to lock this because its a poor quality post. But its important that we have discussions around the dangers of 5-MeO. It is incredibly powerful and I would highly recommend not using it during any other activity other than solo contemplation. This is not some low dose of mushrooms we're talking about here. Particularly at the higher doses, the notion of having sex and 'falling in love' would no longer be desirable or even possible.
  12. I feel like this is another test from Leo to see how openminded we are . Similar to when he posted something about the Law of One / Ra a few years ago. Maybe the point here is not whether the footage is legitimate or 'good evidence' but rather an opportunity to look at ones beliefs and worldview and see how self-biased we are.
  13. For those of you who are struggling with finding your life purpose or knowing what you want to do in life I think this video will really help you. In the video Jack Conte (the CEO of Patreon) talks about all of his projects that he started and failed at. He tried dozens of things over many years, different music projects, animation, music videos, youtube videos, podcasts etc. The main lesson that he is communicating is to try lots of different things/projects until one of them works. Don't expect your first idea to be the one and only thing you do for the next 10 years. Experimentation is the key! I'd really recommend watching the whole video.
  14. @paradiseengineering I think if you're going down the music route you need to niche down a lot. Also consider the question, are you just making music for yourself, or are you making it to fullfill and purpose, service or need? Could you make music that people are looking for? For example music for youtube videos, or music for video makers in general, or maybe share your music in an educational way? I see lots of independent music producers on youtube just showing/educating people on the production process.
  15. I'm locking this because I feel that there isn't any constructive discussion going on here, and users are just unconsciously arguing with each other.
  16. Slow and steady is always a better plan of action. Doing 15mg next seems like a good next step after 8mg. But also note that you probably didn't absorb the full 8mg because with snorting at least 1 or 2mg goes down your throat. At least that was the case in my experience. 15mg will be an intense trip but not like infinite god freight-train intense like 28-30mg can be. I had a profound heart opening at around 15mg. I don't want to say that my heart chakra opened up but it literally felt like a massive opening right in the middle of my chest and love just poured out of it like a firefighters hose in all directions. Lots of crying.
  17. I think I saw the same video but I bet she hasn't done 30mg of 5-MeO-DMT! I personally feel that my breakthroughs on 5-MeO, and specifically the energetic body 'effects' it has, have permanently changed my genetics or brain/body physiology in such a way that I am much more open to insights and intuitive senses, as well as much deeper meditative states. Its a shame that not everyone seems capable of these kind of experiences.
  18. @JonasVE12 Interesting to read your journey so far. I've just finished my first round of DMSA actually. I had my amalgams removed end of last year thank god.
  19. @BlurryBoi It really depends on a number of factors: 1) How serious and disciplined you are with actualising your LP. Is there a possibility that you won't succeed? 2) How clear is your vision and road map for achieving that? If your only goal is to 'be Free to do that wich Fulfills me and actualize myself', thats simply not good enough. 3) Are you already putting in the hours despite not liking your current situation? Very easy to think about doing this kind of stuff, but actually sitting down and putting in the hours and hours of work is 10,000x more difficult. You must be actively working on your LP now. How many hours a day are you already putting in? There is no excuse here. I work a 9-5 and still manage to put in atleast 2-3 hours of work every day. 4) How much prior work have you done? How many other projects have you started? How much experimentation have you done? What makes you think that your current vision/plan will work? I'm also unclear as to how much savings you have? Is it 40k? 80k? Or is that referring to the costs of life? 40k for 5 years would be a stretch. It's difficult to give advice because every person's live situation is too complex and nuanced. But if you've got the money saved I don't see why you could take 1-2 years off to test it out and see where things go.
  20. Wanted to share a few of my recent illustrations that have a sort of spiritual undertone. Looks like the quality of the image is reduced quite a lot in the upload process but its not too bad. This one below is called 'Being vs Doing' and it was for an editorial article talking about how we should spend more time Being and less time doing during covid lockdown: This piece was called 'Drifter'. It's open to interpretation This is called 'Garden of Redemption'. It depicts an angelic spiritual being who has descended into a hell realm to save those who have lost their way.
  21. @QandC Ooh thats a good one, thanks for sharing!
  22. @PBen534 Do it whenever it suits you and when it feels right. There are no rules.
