@Sahil Pandit if you make cool shirts that fit great, I’ll be a lifer. So would guys I know. I great fitting t is all the free advertising you would need.

@Sahil Pandit dude. Get people’s measurements in their profile on your site so they can just pick shirts from there on out, and they arrive tailor fitted. This is an enormous hole in the shirt industry for men. Especially simple t-shirts. Connect so people can order shirts from other common manufacturers and then the shirts get fitted through you and shipped to the customer. I bought a machine and learned how to tailor T-shirt’s, cause I’m not havin the ‘wing’ sleeves. You know what I’m talkin about. Every guy does. Also, consider, people are supporting your efforts by buying your stuff. Maybe advertise package pricing with the merch and workshops. Just some thoughts bro.

@Brandon Nankivell buying things does not creat ego, neither does selling things. Identification with things, attachment to things, thinking that makes someone better than someone else - that perpetuates suffering. You can live a life richly fulfilled in every aspect. It’s just that it’s a bigger trap to be very aware of. I’m seeing it be a lifelong trap for some people I know. Success can fuel the ego, or it can assist you in playing a solid role in liberating others, and helping them to live to their fullest. That’s a really good feeling. There’s no meaning in this illusion. It’s all how you see it. Thinking you know what others think is a major trap. I have zero understanding why people buy sports memorabilia, high end automobiles, attend NASCAR events, go to country music concerts, etc - but I absolutely love the variety of this place, and I would not fault anyone for selling those things to them if that’s what they want to do / buy.

@Krishna Siva psychedelics can be very humbling too. You might try some charity / volunteer activities.

@BobbyLowell I love that experience! Cheers! ?

@egoless DON”T shroom tired. I suggest a really good night’s sleep prior, then take em no later than maybe 6pm. Eat clean for a few days prior, maintain focus on wanted / positive. Make tea, don’t eat em. Don’t take too much, have a trip sitter, don’t call the police.

“hero dose” that’s fitting but also histerical.

@Faceless i hear what your sayin. the thinking perpetuates the illusion. thats the funny part.

@egoless you can plan but then the trip just has its way with you, thats the value of the trip.

@Faceless i don’t know man....i don’t think properties of any kind apply.

@Faceless nuthins movin. its an illusion. it is convincing. still though, what are the odds of all this? like one in infinite.

The movement and the perceiver, the now & time, are baked into the illusion, like the rest of the words & thoughts. ?

@Afonso great post. Add stomach breathing and this is so subtle, so powerful, it’s life changing. Not to mention all the health benefits. Also contributes to non-reaction, improving quality of life and relationships.

@Krishna Siva how do you want to think? What do you want to accomplish? Write that down, look at it, repeat.

@Max_V Dude! That’s a big step. Congrats! Mine was cod zombies, der reise. Lol. Used to play it every night till the am while eating some pile of sugar. I think your approach is troubling you. You’re trying to think of some ‘thing’ to do. I would loosen focus. You can do anything. You just got hours a day back. Learn guitar, try yoga, exercise, learn to paint, or maybe spend it all on drawing and blow your talent up there through a few levels. If you’re just coming off counter strike life, you’re not going to discover what you’ll ‘master’ right out of the gate. Live some life, it will tell you. Relax, enjoy it. It comes faster that way. Be focused on what you want. Even if it’s carrots, or seemingly insignificant. In the big picture, it’s really significant, because it allows more of what you want.

@RawJudah there’s nothing hard about this, you’re just misinterpreting your situation a little. When you think about what they or anyone thinks, remember to honest with yourself & admit you have no idea what anyone else thinks. Even if they’re telling you, you still don’t know. So let that go. Then you can shift your focus to what you want. When you stay focused on what you want, you are no longer focused on the problem, and are free of it. It’s not them texting you, or wantin to hang with you that is frustrating. They’re where they are, they’re just having fun and want you to have fun with them. You want a deeper experience for yourself in this life. One’s not better or worse. That should free up your mind a little more to stay on what you want. What’s frustrating, is realizing we aren’t focusing on what we want as we could be. Texts like that make us realize this. Only wanted, and, therefore, only wanted. Mind & life.

@Shin We can’t focus on breathing from our stomach and think simultaneously.

@iTommy Sorry to hear you had such a bad time. That’s terrible man. If my inquiry is unwanted just ignore it please, but you posted it so you seem open about talking about it. I have had many trips and never a bad one. I am wondering, how is (what I refer to as) your foundation? Like healthy aligned eating, not consuming toxins like smoking & alcholhol, daily meditation & exercise, educational reality & self inquiry....that kind of thing.?

@Petar yeah. Do that for a while. Keep nothing, let everything go. Let your ‘self’ go. Then....psychedelics. Muahh ahhh ahh ahhhhh ?

@Brandon Nankivell we are here to live our lives and enjoy all of creation. We will all be “back” where we came from soon enough. Connect with your authentic self, follow your conscience, enjoy your life. Promote what you genuinely believe in. Promote what brings your tears of joy. You are not limited. It’s all an illusion anyway, a great big circle jerk of relativity. You get to decide how it’s relative to you.

Maybe write down on a piece of paper “i’ll find the usefulness, the benefit to me, in this video” and watch it again. You might see it differently.

@Petar have you tried just completely relaxing your body over and over, and completely surrendering... let go of anything that arises, and letting go even of letting go? Just disappearing. I understand, but also, in a way, it’s like you’re focusing on not thinking which is focusing on thinking. I had a tiny headache reading it. It strikes me as a perpetual push and pull in your mind. There is a healing that happens in those ‘deeper waves’ or ‘deeper consciousness without thought or focus’. I can’t prove that, but I am that.

@Marks199 Myabe give Leo a break, recognize your problem is resistance / unwanted thinking. It is the doubt that is the problem. You should meditate everyday. This makes it much easier to focus on what you want. Go with basic science and common sense. Start exercising and turning in applications for jobs, or start your own business. Good luck! You can.

@Petar that’s awesome. Such an empowering healthy habit. What are you doing in your meditation though? Literally.
