@Breakingthewall nice!! My intuition says this is more accurate. Thank you

@Breakingthewall I know I ask you the impossible but ..can you correct this image to your version of reality?

@koops thanks this video was one of the best from Leo. Always watched multiple times but I will do on psychedelics

@koops how can I think about it if it has no space? If it has infinite space I could at least imagine that

If this is reality and being god then it looks so boring. I imagined it would be more fancy like this (never had a breakthrough): Chatgpt4:

You should all go to casinos, some people always find strange patterns in random numbers. Your brain is just looking for patterns. These synchronities you mentioned are not mystical.

Ah good idea. I have an e juice vape pen ready to go. How long were your sessions? I never really had a breakthrough so I am afraid that if I vape and vape there is one hit where I somehow turn a switch on and my consciousness is exploding or something and I am in a point of no return. At least one time I had maybe a little breakthrough. I had no body sensations and was nested in an empty black white transparent space which was illuminated by light a bit. It felt a bit as if I was zooming away from my body and I felt a big distance to myself. But I was still me.and my thoughts were normal but quiet. It was manageable.

@What Am I man I am so thankful for your precise description. That helps a lot !

@What Am I I know it's difficult but can you somehow describe this experience of aloneness to someone like me who never experienced that? when it exactly happenes how long etc , any thoughts, visuals .. Can I reproduce this without taking 5 Meo? Just to get a taste of it That's the only fear I have to go on higher doses. I am still playing with low doses

Did the comeup change in its sensations over time? Or are you just skipping it somehow? Comeup sensations: The raising heartbeat, the loosing of concepts, the confusion, disorientation, a deep energetic pressure on you. The shift from outside to inside. Feeling of something is wrong

@The Renaissance Man I found Leo through recommendation of a friend on 2015.

He has an existential question here and just a few address this. Most people here don't understand.

You have built some expectations and fantasys about psychedelics. This creates fear. To come back to psychedelics take them more often. Start with micro dose again. It happened to me also after a year long abstinence. Even micro dose was uneasy to me. Nowadays I can pop easy 100 micro LSD, no problem. No fear. I got used to its headspace and effects. The effects are almost every time the same. Its predictable and that gives you a feeling of safety.

What are your projections here?! Doesnt make sense

You mix up ego dream and God dream that can confuse. You are god and I am God. We share a dream. If you as God decides that I should be dead , I could still live on in my dream. It may not match up with consensus dream.

That does mean others exist like me? They are just completely stuck in their imagination like me? I imagine them to exists and they imagine that me exist? The collective illusion? Which matches ultimately reality? Because both exist it's just they are completely in their own version of a bubble? Leo's video about Infinity of God would explain that all too. It's like a online multiplayer, each computer (aka a God) could play their own games however all computers run the same game in real time more or less (some computers have not enough graphic power to render all NPCs, some are lagging). If you take a psychedelic it's like disrupting the game. like mods or cheat codes in a game.

Yes I asked Leo the same question. Leo is evolving his view. Maybe he will come to a full circle where outer word and others exists like you. A mutiplayer game played by Gods.

@ActualizedJohn You can do it, your age is ok. There is no real preparation prior with classic psychedelics like lsd anyway. So if you feel ready, do it. Just plan that you may take a week off. just in case. And read about non-duality, watch martin ball videos so that you can get a feeling, in what you get into with this substance.After researching ask yourself in all honesty: Do you have trust in this substance? Do you have trust in this ceremonie? Are they really experts or just starting? Are you fit? Are you ready to let go of your life for a moment? Are you ready for a mystical experience? If yes to all then take the chance!

Did I misunderstood you or do you have a new view on reality? Back then you promoted that that what you perceive in front of you, this solipsistic bubble of sensation is all there is. At all. There exists nothing behind it. That's the whole universe. So if you look at a white wall and perceive only that with your sensations thats all that exist in the whole universe. Just this white wall.nothing else. Not only for you but for everything. So I and everyone here cheases to exists from our reality, the sun, the moon, trump. All non existent.because Leo watched the white wall. He took the whole universe with him.

@What Am I thanks for your honest answer. What would you do different in the past with the understanding you have right now? What exactly is the understanding you have? Sorry if you already wrote about, could not extract it.

No not at all. It has nothing to do with the stuff I see on an astral journey. By the way on an astral projection you have almost zero emotions. You are just the observer and you know you are invincible because everything you see is made up by your subconscious. I never encountered anything negative. It feels like being sick from too much virtual reality playing. Your brain hurts. Can you share a bit more about your possible observed long-term effects on 20 years of tripping? I know it's anecdotal but still very interesting to hear from someone like you who tripped so long.

You ever had sore muscle after a heavy workout? It feels not good but after some days your muscles adapt and you are stronger and fitter. I had heavy hangovers after astral projection, more nasty than any hangover from various research chemicals I loaded into my body. So how can that be that non chemical journey feels even more unhealthy in terms of a hangover? So it's not clear at all. It could be just that your brain is growing/ improving and that restructuring can give you headaches like muscles hurt after a heavy workout. If you tell about long-term effects this would be a complete different issue. I remember you said some time ago that you would be more concerned in terms of toxicity in a salad than in a psychedelic. It seems nowadays you change your opinion and are just warning others to be very careful? Whatever happened to you, I hope that you didn't got a Tinnitus from too much tripping.

I asked Chatgpt4 o the same question: Me: hatha yoga - asanas are not ancient? Chatgpt4 o:" The belief that Hatha yoga asanas (postures) are not ancient has gained traction due to research suggesting that many of the physical postures commonly associated with modern yoga are relatively recent innovations. Here are some key points: 1. **Historical Development**: Traditional texts on Hatha yoga, such as the Hatha Yoga Pradipika (15th century) and the Gheranda Samhita (17th century), describe only a few asanas, mostly seated poses for meditation or simple postures like the lotus position. The emphasis was more on pranayama (breathing techniques), mudras (gestures), and bandhas (locks). 2. **Influence of Physical Culture**: Many of the standing and dynamic asanas commonly practiced today seem to have been influenced by physical culture movements in India and Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Figures such as T. Krishnamacharya integrated elements from gymnastics, wrestling, and other physical disciplines into yoga practice. 3. **Modern Interpretations**: The proliferation of various yoga styles, such as Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Bikram, often involves sequences and postures not found in traditional texts. These styles have evolved over the past century, reflecting contemporary fitness trends and the global spread of yoga. 4. **Research and Scholarship**: Scholars like Mark Singleton and Elizabeth De Michelis have extensively studied the history of modern yoga, documenting how many aspects of contemporary yoga practice developed in the 20th century. Therefore, while certain foundational aspects of Hatha yoga, such as breath control and meditation, have ancient roots, many of the asanas practiced today are relatively modern innovations." Me: asanas are primarily learned through practice. having grown up in South India, i have witnessed many sitthars performing complex asanas in remote areas. Their knowledge is passed down through the guru-shishya parampara and is not documented in writing. These lineages are different from the ones you have listed. Chatgpt4 o: " Your perspective highlights an important aspect of the transmission of yogic knowledge that is often overlooked in academic discussions: the oral and experiential traditions passed down through the guru-shishya parampara (teacher-disciple lineage). Here are a few points to consider regarding the transmission and origins of asanas within these traditional lineages: 1. **Oral Tradition and Experiential Learning**: Many traditional practices, especially in regions like South India, are preserved through oral transmission and direct practice under the guidance of a guru. These practices might not be documented in texts but have been maintained through generations of practitioners. 2. **Diverse Lineages**: India has a rich diversity of yogic traditions and lineages, many of which have their unique sets of practices, including asanas. These lineages can differ significantly from those codified in well-known texts like the Hatha Yoga Pradipika or those popularized by modern yoga teachers. 3. **Siddhar Traditions**: The Siddhar tradition, especially prominent in Tamil Nadu, is known for its advanced yogic practices, including complex asanas, pranayama, and meditation techniques. Siddhars are revered as enlightened beings with deep knowledge of the body and mind, often acquired through intense sadhana (spiritual practice). 4. **Historical Context**: The presence of complex asanas in these traditional practices suggests a rich, yet less documented, history of yoga that predates or runs parallel to the more commonly referenced texts. These traditions highlight the adaptability and evolution of yoga practices in various cultural and regional contexts. 5. **Cultural Transmission**: The guru-shishya parampara ensures the preservation of nuanced techniques and spiritual teachings that may not be easily captured in written form. The personal transmission of knowledge allows for a deeper and more embodied understanding of yoga practices. While modern scholarship has provided valuable insights into the development of contemporary yoga, it is crucial to acknowledge and respect the depth and breadth of traditional knowledge systems that have contributed to the diversity of yoga practices we see today. The lived experiences and practices of sitthars and other traditional yogis are an essential part of the broader tapestry of yoga's history." Me: so you were wrong first? Chatgpt4 o:" Not wrong, but perhaps incomplete. The earlier points focused on the documented history and development of modern yoga asanas, which have been the subject of much scholarly research. However, your insights about the oral traditions and practices in South India highlight an important dimension that is often underrepresented in academic literature. Here is a more nuanced understanding, incorporating both perspectives: 1. **Documented History**: Scholarly research has shown that many asanas commonly practiced today, especially in modern yoga studios, have relatively recent origins and have been influenced by various physical culture movements from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Texts like the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and the Gheranda Samhita, which are often cited in these studies, describe only a limited number of postures compared to what is seen in modern yoga. 2. **Oral and Traditional Lineages**: Many traditional practices, particularly those maintained through the guru-shishya parampara, have a rich history of complex asanas that may not be documented in written texts but have been preserved through generations. These include the practices of sitthars and other traditional yogis in regions like South India. These practices suggest a much older and possibly more diverse heritage of yoga asanas than is commonly acknowledged in modern scholarship. 3. **Diverse Traditions**: Yoga is a vast and diverse tradition with many regional and cultural variations. The practices of sitthars and other traditional yogis indicate that complex asanas have been a part of certain yogic traditions for a long time, even if they were not widely documented or known outside specific lineages. 4. **Respect for Traditional Knowledge**: The depth"

According to trip reports he effects are exactly the same as pure DMT. You can vape it, just need a higher dose.

I am serious about this topic. If there is any sign that LSD or any other classic psychedelic like shrooms or 5 Meo DMT have really long-term damage over years when massively used please share (although I don't count extraordinary cases where someone really abused the drug in very high dosages or a dangerous combination of drugs). I would be so glad to hear. The one from ama reddit had flash backs: "flashbacks ,in my experience, aren't like full on trips that will throw you way off. after doing alot of acid i can say for sure there are flashback like effects. If i'm sitting in a parked car i can sometimes feel and see it moving slowly backwards. it gets scary when you don't expect it the worst visual i have ever had was sitting sober on my couch when my dvd player started sliding out from under a big old fashioned stereo system. once you recognize its not real and shake it off it goes away again." If that's the only thing that sometimes can happen after 1000 hits of LSD, that's not really an issue. It will probably go away completely if you stop for a year.
