puporing

Hey that's sort of where I'm at these days. I am pretty blissful when doing "nothing". And well most of the times when people are involved there tends to be high and a low so you're always on a rollercoaster with "socialization" and it's usually not high conscious..

Thanks we shall see . Oh wow that's been awhile. Haven't done it outside yet, that sounds like a good idea! Need a sitter for that probably or at least driver...

Oh heck yeah almost always! Some kind of "spiritual orgasm" whenever I play Chopin stuff for example.

Ohh yeah, could be that. On my first two trips, there was some lingering "trauma" stuff that got purged (that was also super insane how quickly because it was so sticky before I tried any psychedelics..), before entering full blown infinity/godhead. I think the come up have gotten more "comfortable" in a relatively short time period. Will try the empty stomach see what that does.

That hits home, seems like the more you awaken the more "what else is there to do" applies.

@Juan Thanks for sharing your take on it! Good point about having the free time before and after ideally and being in a stable mental state. I keep reading about that, I haven't had any issues with not having a completely empty stomach (just semi coz I don't eat heavy meals in general). Are there other reasons for this other than preventing nausea and such? Ok yeah, so I wasn't the only one reading it like that.

Ahahaha this is gold. ?

Thanks for linking this, don't know why I don't recall watching this (I guess it has been awhile). Ditto with the bathtub ritual - I started doing the same thing during trips. ?

@Jahmaine It’s not a black and white thing as you can see. Yes it can be “dangerous” when you do it intensely like that and thus valuable to give out warnings. But also doesn’t mean one should not come back again to revisit if one feels called to, that reason might be unique to each of us and I suppose he didn’t answer that directly, I presume the reasons could be numerous and besides “truth seeking”, there may be highly personal/spiritual reasons. It can be hard to put into words. As an example, I could intuit that even if I had felt the highest awakenings had been achieved, I would still desire to be in that state of consciousness - purely to commune with “myself”, if that makes sense.

@SeekingFreedom Could be a hindrance or a motivator, all depends. I met someone once who said they are an alcoholic and was looking to have a 5-meo trip at an addictions clinic - though he mostly referred to it as to help him work past this addiction. But simultaneously this may open him up to more inner/spiritual pursuits as I have pointed him to this direction. Anything’s possible and depends on the individual. Not too different imo from people with mental health issues who may eventually stumble upon spirituality while pursuing healing work.

That's a side effect usually, and the expansion of love. Just seeking truth for its own sake is also pure joy for some, even if it "horrifies you" what you might discover sometimes.

Pretty subjective thing. It's kind of hard for me to seperate looks from how one otherwise carries themselves. As in, it's possible for me to be very attracted to someone that most people wouldn't consider attractive physically speaking. Mostly a psychological/spiritual thing but the physical aspects could compound it. So I'd be lying if I said looks didn't matter at all.

Are you serious? That would've happened way before all this, if you're referring to "ego death".

I don't think he's suicidal .

Whatever amounts and frequencies you take that's up to your risk tolerance and what you're willing to "risk". But it's good to know roughly what the 'upper limits' might be.

I think you're taking my words way too seriously lol. Limitations of text speech.

Nope. I'm just acknowledging the risk he took. Like some guy who first reached Mount Everest peak and made it back alive. It was a compliment you silly.

I didn't say it wasn't a positive thing rofl. Projections projections projections.

That's some hardcore stuff. You're literally playing with fire. I think we're all glad you're still here.

Need to get Elon on board with this. LOL that all makes sense, I can see why you would do that for 28 days, you're just in nirvana, and trying to reach some breakthrough I'm guessing? I'm pretty surprised the body can tolerate that much though. Still need to get my hands on 5-meo and give that a shot. You're saying don't do it for 28 days straight, I should prob watch what I'm sayin here.

Holy crap. I mean, did that create any "health" problems for you afterwards? As far as you can tell?

Well yeah, I think the "novelty" will wear off in time. Once a week honestly seems not bad at all in the long run.

Ok, do you know why there's such a big difference between mushrooms and 5-meo substances? Does it have to do with "purity"?

Or some climactic scene where they finally "realize their love" after many rounds of missed opportunities.

This is pretty true to how it goes most of the time. Not how movies portray it rofl.
