Yeah, it's weird to follow Leo's work sometimes. In my experience, a no-self awakening (I mean a single experience, not a permanent shift) has been way more important and way stronger than any God experience I have got from DMT or DPT. But there's still some world left after you reach the No-self, I guess that what is left is The Self. Maybe the difference comes from the fact that I have spent hours in the No-self state and the DMT peak experience lasts like 3 minutes only.

@Willie And? 400 000 Texans moved to California in that time. Both of these states have huge populations so those numbers are like nothing in 10 years scale. California is still growing in population every year but it's slowing, which is good, because there's a limit to how many people can a patch of land support. Everything when mature stops growing. You know what doesn't stop its growth? Cancer.

Then ask yourself if "dumb af" games are something you want to learn to play or if it is not your forte. If not then look for someone else, you might need to do so anyway because if you don't already know the games she plays you will probably lose before you understand them. Yeah, I suspect so, just have wanted to write a little for myself. Don't take that part as necessarily directed at you, please

@Karmadhi Normies who don't know what they want from life are in a sense harder than hot girls, hard to vibe with them if you are a self-actualizer. And why would you want to try to fight this uphill battle if she is just as pretty as the other girl? She thinks like that, too, it's suspicious, not flattering if you stick to that girl. Why would you listen to a girl complaining during a first date, though? Throw a joke, throw a joke, "OK being serious time!" ... for 30 seconds, then think up a stupid story, throw a joke. Positivity and acceptance. She tells you she is new to the city and doesn't know anyone? Then you say "no wonder, you have had the courage to talk to me then", "I am the state President, I know everyone, I will show you where all the best parties, food is" and you take her to a kebab stall or whatever, randomly greeting people like you know them on the way. You get the gist. Some girls will cringe, some will love it, all depending on the girl and your creativity and delivery.

Yeah, the lack of feedback is the worst part, when trying to improve. That's why having friends with a lot of experience helps because they might clarify a thing or two for you.

Yes, it is. It is basically pranayama and some pranayamas with bandhas and mudras in more advanced techniques. But the guidelines tell you to practice it in a specific way to get specific results. And as said above by @EmptyVase, the accent is put on achieving a meditative state called Parvastha and abiding in it.

@Pete- Weirdly cool video. Hits some core ideas right. Has little to do with Kriya Yoga originating from Lahiri Mahasaya, though. I am also pro-movement, I like Hatha Yoga the most, but I would refrain from comparing 2 hours of Lahiri's Kriya with 15 minutes of gi gong because it's not what you imagine it to be.

From what teacher? Or books

Every solid meditation method I know has 2 hours requirement. To do Vipassana they encourage you to go on a 10-day retreat and then practice 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening between the retreats, and they advise at least 1 retreat a year, ideally 4 or something, so yeah, meditation takes up time. Does this have anything to do with reality, have you practiced Kriya Yoga, have you talked with any kriya teacher who told you what is good for which people from their experience? Or is it just pure gossip.

Yeah, but you can do a retreat where you do Maha Mudra all day for a day or three and you should be okay.

@BeHereNow Read my thread, I have done Kriya Yoga retreat at home. 3 hours is not overkilling it if you are semi-advanced and you can get to semi-advanced in 1-3 months if you are serious. Lahiri (the OG kriya yogi) had recommended very big numbers of repetitions for his advanced students. You can basically just do one technique - Maha Mudra - all day. Set a realistic goal like 2 hours a day and then if you have time and a desire to push further, then push further. Just don't do the very advanced techniques all day, but basic Kriya Pranayama and Maha Mudra have virtually no limits.

Trueee I will be honest, sometimes I am the one to be too lazy to really put effort and not the girl. I would like to get more skilled and make the process of making her come more efficient. Does anyone have any course, masterclass, book recommendation for working on sexuality? Materials for couples, preferably.

Ohh, I will miss @Enlightenment. He is the kind of guy to share a video, though. But that's what has made him helpful. Solid, concrete, practical guy.

I say that. Feels better, not is better. And not porn but masturbation in general. And it goes both ways, for girls and for boys. Sex toys are also more intensive feeling than anything you can get in normal sex I think.

Yeah, it exist. Like nuns who choose to be nuns just for the community and to have power over other people. They only care about the "cosplay" aspects of religion. It's not an attack towrds any nun, it's just answers of some of them to the interviews with scientists, which have led to creation of this category of non-spiritual and religious.

Mimosa is not from Australia. Australia has many species of Acacia, Acacia Confusa being one of them. Acacias are legal almost everywhere, but harder to source, as you say, some sellers sell them only in Australia for example, or only from Hawaii to the USA. Mimosa is legal and can be bought in the Netherlands, Spain, the UK, many of the US states, etc. Too many countries to mention them all.

I am not sure what country you live in, but Mimosa Hostilis (the plant is often sold as a purple dye for clothing) is legal in many places and you can use it to extract DMT in your own kitchen. If that's too much, then you can find a seller of already extracted spice on the dark market. Looking for sellers from the same country you are in is smart because it reduces the risk of the package being intercepted to almost zero.

It all depends on one's worldview. Does Tim Ferriss really need your $5 bucks? He is wealthy as fuck. If you subscribe to socialist ideology then it's not immoral for you, because "from each according to his capabilities, to each according to his needs". You will probably make better use of that $5, I guess the only correct answer to the OP question can be given by the OP himself. What do you believe to be true about the world, @Thought Art ?

I would look for another income source. This is the reality of being a writer, especially one writing scientific books. To publish most science books their authors have to PAY to get them published. That means not only do they not earn, they are actually losing money.

Obviously, there are many methods, but the one the most appropriate for a party/social gathering setting seems to be this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfWWVZqzDxA I have loved using DMT to party, but sadly my friends don't. I prefer it so so so much compared to weed. Weed is nah, just not for me.

Texting through PMs with that person in the past, my guess.

Yeah, but you can get an even better networking oppurtinity at cheaper cost and way more fun at a festival like Burning Man. Festivals are the best. You can even make friends with retreats facilitators there, while on a retreat you would be having a seller-client kind of relationship.

I personally don't count that as cheating. I see now my wording might have not been accurate. By saying I don't believe higher numbers I have meant stuff like 20-30%. But when I think about it now, I have been too conservative with the estimate, indeed. You are right. It's not an important question, but an interesting one. I would like to know real data, genetic tests of very, very large population samples. I don't see that as a break of privacy. I am also a proponent of total transparency of finances, as an example, I think everyone at work should know how much every other person earns. So I am quite radical in regards to privacy. I dream of a world of total transparency, honesty, but we are not ready for it.

@Raptorsin7 I think cheating rate is betwen 1-14%. My best guess 3%. I don't believe higher numbers, because then alnost everyone would have some experience in life with cheating, your friends wpuld be talking about such situations non-stop.

It's no for the most of you guys, it's for the rich (richer) people. Those retreats sell like fresh buns, big money. There are many websites that earn like 10-20k a month from just selling ads for those retreats. If the price seems exorbitant you are just not from the social class this is targeted for. Psychedelic therapy if legalized would be just as pricey for many years, so people would still have to resort to black market or growing their own plants.
