Depth, which is something no app can provide. The users of applications from the dating/pickup industry are massively needy and emotionally blocked.

I joined a (different/strange) religion. We brew/drink Ayahuasca in restricted rituals and protocols. It was easy to spot a good shaman because of the way that the religion is growing. The mental health of its participants is clearly superior to the average person. I don't think that's the appropriate mentality. The mystical experiences are an opportunity for us to learn and practice. If you're just using it everyday, you'll be developing a dependency, which can be understood as a psychological vice.

C'mon guys... take what serves you. That's the perspective of a very experienced seeker.

Yes! Nope. v This is very important v Careful though. Make sure you drink Ayahuasca brewed with Chacrona (Psychotria viridis) and Mariri (Banisteriopsis caapi) only. ^ This is very important ^ A lot of self-proclaimed "shamans" irresponsibly brew Ayahuasca with other ingredients. Stay away from those.

@Nahm is a tripping experience. It can be a lot, depending on how you live. If you live a crazy stressed life, then yes. If you're can manage your life to live tranquil, than it's just fine. I don't make it by myself. It's brewed and taken in a religious context. Drinking Ayahuasca in a religious ritual is legal in Brazil.

I fixed it for you. Thanks for the text. It's amazing.

I don't agree with it. "Illusion" is an ambiguous word. If you mean that morality is not a fundamental thing, beyond human construction, then I agree. But the word "illusion" can also mean "something that leads to dumb choices and poor quality of life"... and that's completely nonsense. Try to live everyday lying to everyone you see, indulging in toxic activities and causing all sorts of harm and you'll see Hell manifest right before your eyes. In this sense, morality, as a deep understanding of how to live in harmony, is utterly important to be contemplated for decades. Sure, the "there is no <insert whatever>" card. I'm am delighted. "There is no we. I have nothing to learn here. I'm just talking to myself." If you're attached to the Absolute, you're deluded. You can make up any line of reasoning to justify whatever. If you're attached to the relative, you lack perspective and existential knowledge.

@BornToBe I drink Ayahuasca at least twice a month.

Huh, I didn't say that God is a separated entity. God is EVERYTHING. And we're God experiencing what it's like to feel individuality. There is no such thing as God revealing itself to you. You can only become aware of who you are.

Nope... The best book is the one written with the words of your mental experience, though. Read it carefully.

@theking00 You are The Matrix.

What sees through human eyes?

As if God were some separated entity...

@arlin Emotional triggers exist because people have toxic unconscious mental patterns.

Let's say that the process in which God gradually becomes aware of Itself is full of hiccups... Sooner or later, we'll need to learn how to deal with those. The Zen schools have their method: you're not allowed to mention how enlightened you are unless a proper committee is formed for that. Such rituals are called "Dharma Combats". After the committee recognizes you as God fully realized, you become apt to teach in the name of the Zen tradition and organize Zazenkais, Sesshins etc. But you come back to not being allowed to mention how enlightened you are. It's a protocol to protect the lineages from cult-like tendencies and other forms of devilry.

Honestly, I don't see why God, when becoming fully aware of Itself, would cease to exist. In fact, it would be a reason to exist and expand itself FURTHER and MORE INTENSELY. Reality/God is non-dual, but duality as we know it (the experience of being an individual) is the ultimate miracle. This is the mystical absurdity, the core of the paradox. This is where Enlightenment meets Self-Actualization. This is how holy human beings, so to speak, come to be. They realize themselves as "the son of God" and "the son of man", or simply "God as a person". Again, this is very different from ego trips. God, when aware of Itself, is an extremely humbling experience.

@xthebentnecklady What happens in the level of mind when the experience of "neuroses" comes up? What does the mental voice say?

Funny question.

Yeah, but @Chilli is right. Hijacking threads is against the forum guidelines, regardless of your likes and dislikes.

When I smoked weed, I just felt retarded and paranoid.

Yes, I forgot to mention that. But by "good job" I'd mean doing something that makes me feel intellectually challenged. Your definition of "good job" might be different, I don't know.

@kieranperez Yes, and its actually where the real labor lies on. This is also what non-dual robots fear the most: purification.

Enough food and water A warm place to sleep/rest Comfortable clothes Basic hygiene That's all. But Life can also be more awesome than that.

It means that enlightenment is a phenomenon of the Universe. The Universe becomes aware of itself through you. It does not mean that your mother will become enlightened. That's the trap of the mind.

If a group of gangsters stole all your money and beat you to the hospital, would you like if the authorities from the social justice system were on the same hierarchical level as the burglars so that the burglars could decide for themselves not to suffer the consequences of their act? The creation of an unified power called "State" is the attempt of mankind to protect itself from its own ignorance. We need common good to beat individualist devilry. The quality of your life can be severely affected if you don't feel minimally safe when walking around. This was just an example.
