I'll add to that, sex can actually be combined with this. you can actually gain energy from sex but only under a certain form of green ray energy sex. meaning sex as an act out of the heart, not out of lust. basically if you practice a pure form of love and sex happens naturally, ejaculating should not disrupt your energies, it will add to it. but if you're merely having one-night stands left and right without much heart feeling into it, you'll certainly lose energy. but that doesn't mean there is anything bad with casual sex, only for the purpose of this practice does it not help

for me lsd and mushrooms are the obvious ''glitch in the matrix'' how can a mere plant make you use your human brain more effectively? following modern society's mindset we're supposedly the most evolved beings on this planet, and suddenly mere plant matter can you feel alive, can show you the potentials of your own brain, can make you feel connected to others and to yourself in ways you would have never imagined. ''a fucking plant knows better how to use my brain then I do'' that was my main thought lost all respect for society and started respecting nature and the universe it is not a coincidence that we have certain ways to unlock higher consciousness

- expansion of imagination - meditation you can expand your imagination with psychedelic experiences, as you get in touch with the mystique, the actual taste of magic,which can lead you to lose your belief in the common reality that we are physical bodies trying to survive in a world meditation is great, there's nothing you can't gain through meditation that you can without it. every sort of knowledge you need is inside, you have access to cosmic knowledge and memory, you are not dependent of anything, you have everything you need right with you. as you meditate you will learn, learn, learn, learn, about yourself, about the world, its insane how much you will learn just by dampening the distracting thoughts. I meditate 24/7 as I live, there's no need to be in a static position to meditate, nor do you have to achieve total silence to be in meditation, if you're aware of your thoughts, you're aware you're the one listening to the thoughts, and you actively try to diminish them/understand them, you are meditating

congratz on getting such a special and mystique experience. to the point where you partly dissolved your ego, it showed its fear to you, it showed that it's getting threatened but I'd rather take another stance on this,rather then dissolve the ego you can say you can heal it, you can absolve it of functions it doesn't need to uphold anymore, you can put it in its rightful place, as a smaller healthy functioning part of you. listen to the fears of your ego, you are the one fearing but you are also the one that is not fearing, the one that is listening to the fear. you are certainly not deluded, this is legit the sort of experiences you should naturally have as you progress through enlightenment! you're getting in touch with the essence of your being, finally glimpsing above the bullshit of modern human life into cosmic realms, you're literally looking beyond this ''world'' our ego's constructed there's only you, here and now, there's no world, which is what you tasted

oh yeah you're getting there, everything is possible, and therefore it is...the simpsons, the rick and morty show, game of thrones, pokemon...there are dimensions where this stuff is actually happening with complexity as vivid as our reality with consciousness being explored in different ways then ours. what we imagine exists,what you imagine exists,when you get this you start to feel your powers as an infinite creator. infinity is INFINITY, everything is possible and everything is your imagination is the gateway to different realities and ways of consciousness

what a beautiful realization...this is amazing what you went through, you're having access to a beautiful perspective. I have felt in the exact same way as you just described to me. it is very nice to remember this feeling once again, it is a feeling that feels good, the truth always feels good, it is completely possible to be in complete harmony with everything in life, be it rejection or anything, there is a sense of deep connection with everything in our lives, it is up to us to believe in this connection so that we can get access to those higher perspectives and ways of experiencing life you are literally seeing beyond the modern idea of a survival focused physical life, and recognizing the synchronicity that connects us all as spirits, each one exploring life in their own way in harmony with everyone else

I cannot live life considering myself enlightened and considering the majority of people I see as not enlightened. If I see someone as not being enlightened, the judgement feeling comes in, the feeling of division comes in. necessarily there needs to be division between what's enlightened and what's not so that ''I'' can 'stay enlightened'. what also rises is a feeling of non-acceptance, I may approve of people's lifestyle but if deep down I think they could be better living like I do there's non-acceptance. This stands completely in the way of non-duality consciousness, it creates a constant rift between me and others, between me and an unifying consciousness so for me it is now obvious that this is the right way of seeing things. if I judge my lifestyle to be better then others, the feeling of judgement comes up, which hurts,it hurts to judge others, it is like judging myself, it doesn't feel right or good. my path of enlightenment is taking another way, as I more or less have figured out how I can be enlightened, it is now my purpose to see how everyone else is already enlightened. whether if it's two drunk guys fighting, or a simple mother that takes care of her kids, or a bum living on the street, a coke addict, a movie star, they're all enlightened because they are infinite intelligence exploring life in their own ways. we will never know what someone elses life is really like. but one thing is certain, we are all connected, we're all made of the same things, infinite love, infinite intelligence. with only the knowledge of this connection can I know that there is nothing wrong with what people are doing. only then can I attain peace with the world, with myself, if I accept it just as it is.

it might not be related to enlightenment in the sense that everyone who does it is enlightenment, but I think it might be related to more genuine human expressions that are related to the level of connection with the inner self, that is my personal theory. but you have to understand I never did this before in my life, and I started doing it and noticing it very obviously in others as my spiritual progression accelerated. and bentinho,a spiritual teacher whom I personally consider to be in a very deep enlightened state does it almost constantly as he talks, just way more then the average person. I do know there is something there, what it is I'm not sure. so you say you do it as well?what do you feel when you do it

for several months there's this specific human expression with the tongue that has been one big mystery and center of interest for me. it started as I advanced more in spiritual work. I began noticing this expressing everywhere I go. And after a month or two I started doing this expression myself very slowly, I sometime do it automatically. it is an expression that is really intriguing me. I have to make a point,that I witness this experience with a certain type of people. people who seem to have more life energy and are less bound by fear. whenever I notice it in social gatherings it most often with those that are very comfortable with themselves, that seem to enjoy life more so to say. people that seems to be a bit more down and with less energy don't seem to make this expression. I witness this in others, but the main subject of experience for this conclusion is myself. never in my life have I done this expression, at least not as far I can remember becoming conscious of my expressions and myself, which is around puberty. it is not unrelated,but I was very socially anxious to the point of depression during my puberty till a year or two ago when I started my path of enlightenment. my social anxiety was very acute,I was very aware of my expressions in front of others, and never would I have dared to stick my tongue out at someone in any way, the idea would have never crossed my mind nor would I have ever let it happen automatically or without me noticing it as I would have been greatly ashamed. So I know that this expression is not used by just about everyone. I myself have a bit of a hard time accommodating this new expression, it toke me some introspection to accept it. so to out of nowhere welcome an expression that I never did in my life is why I'm so intrigued about it. I know it is related to enlightenment in some way. and with every enlightened teacher I see they do this expression, some do it a lot even. I have a few examples underneath for you guys to watch what I mean exactly 0:59 12:37-38 1:11:40 1:12:30 1:15:36 very obvious one I'd really love to hear you guys' thoughts about this. do you make this expression? how often and in what situations? what do you think it means? I myself do it sometimes but I'm not really sure what it means.

that is indeed a very nice example, so that is your theory, interesting

true, what happens is what happens, whether I call it consciousness leaving the body or consciousness changing vibrational frequency and changing the hologram. in a sense what I mean by leaving your body is that you're not being as consciously focused on this physical reality with your current body in the center of it, you're more consciously focused. this is my mindset if for one let's say there is a person that views the universe and himself as a body with consciousness living in an universe with it's own consciousness, then there is another person that views itself as being one consciousness with everything, then there is another person that isn't even spiritual and sees life as a body with one single life surviving on a planet. to me these are all true, there is no conflict between these, for the universe is infinite even in its truths, everything is possible. and these truths can live in complete harmony and that is our powers as creators and explorers, we not only worlds but we explore consciousness itself. we can each explore and taste this world as we view fit, whether one considers it all one consciousness, or everyone with different consciousness or just physicality. it is the abundance of infinite creation and exploration that allows this. so for me the truth is not ''the truth'', the truth is merely a way to experience reality as you wish to experience it, if we keep that in mind, that even consciousness itself is a tool of playing we could one day come to enjoy ourselves doing amazing things. who knows in my far spiritual future what sort of consciousness I can enjoy? living life being conscious of 4 bodies with their unique personalities at once? living life being conscious of being the wind? being conscious of a planet? being conscious of light? being conscious of a personality living in the future and one in the past at the same time? the possibilities are endless being conscious of all that is at once? probably not for the next billion years

for those who don't consider dreams to be real, it seems like nonsense but to me you pretty reincarnate every night when the most of your consciousness leaves your body to do its astral travels, its exploration in realms and planes beyond this one... you live multiple lives every night in the multiple stages on dreaming. dreaming is literally your consciousness leaving your body to go do other stuff on other planes. so you have already a massive amount of ''reincarnations'' and ''past lives'' that you barely remember, yet you do this everyday effortlessly.

you raise very valid points, it is natural that things goes like this, I cannot communicate with verbal language exactly what is I'm doing and exactly how I feel towards others. I use enlightenment in a very fluid way, it is true that in the scope of the community of self-actualization, lightwork, spiritual awakenings, that enlightenment has a few objective criteria. it was in all in my aid and to many that are trying to take this path to use this definition of enlightenment like this so that we can get pointed in the right direction; ultimately though it is only a signpost, a guidance, to me enlightenment in my personal definition now is deep connection with what is, true acceptance with what is going on right now, to flow with life so what I mean to express with enlightenment is that everything is ok as it is, I consider enlightenment the state of being where one is harmony with the universe, if I call everyone enlightened then I mean to express that everyone is in harmony with the universe. if I allow in my awareness the perspective that everyone that I see is in complete harmony and already perfect in every way, there will never be conflict in my awareness again. this to me, is entering the grounds of non-duality consciousness, I cannot separate my own consciousness from the consciousness of others. if I am fine so to speak, then everyone else is fine too, and if we're all fine, the label fine, stops to mean anything, we simple are. but I used the label of enlightenment to specifically offer more information on what I mean

to address fear of death is a very big part of enlightenment, it's the main reason why we resort to our mind and distrust our inner self It seems that when talking about acceptance is it that fear that surfaces for you. Acceptance doesn't lead to death, but it leads you to face your inner fears. the very thought of acceptance puts you in front of your main fear in life, it is a chance for you to eventually address this fear of death

and I hope they interpret it this way. acceptance always leads to love, which leads to a connection with the self. I see that you are afraid that accepting laziness and complacency leads to degeneration. on this I disagree

no, what did you do, to spark the desire to balance this addiction? what did you do , to get to a point where you wanted to change? because one moment you're doing these things, and the next you see them as an addiction that needs to be moderated, what did you do to switch from the first to the second?

we are immortal multi-dimensional timeless spirits, our very life is our purpose. how funny is it to see a child, a dog or an old man on the street. it is all a play, a joyful child is not a joyful child, it is a spirit playing a joyful child, a dog is not just a dog, it is a spirit playing a dog. how funny is it to see a spirit of infinite intelligence incarnating a ''dumb'' dude that likes to drink beer all day and shoot at cans? or as a mother that seemingly struggles with her kids. or a spirit incarnating itself as a disabled person, that is courageous. there is no dumbness or struggles, behind every bird, spider, insect, behind everyone you see there lies infinite intelligence and purpose. you're right now playing a human that is seemingly looking for a purpose in life, that is your spirit's purpose, acting like a human that doesn't know what's going on. and why not , it is valid experience. it's all so hilarious when the ego fades and you see that it's all just a play. the bees that flies above you, the pigeon that shits on your car, they're all just as intelligent as you are, we're just playing the game of life. if you're here your purpose is already fulfilled , your very presence is purposeful and full of infinity we are brought up with society ego that teaches us that value comes from improving society be it by entertainment or advancements. from the point of view of the universe, infinite creation, value is in everything, everything that is here is another creation, another blooming of infinity, another facet of reality. what's the value in a lazy dude that does nothing all day? if it wasn't for the lazy dude, we wouldn't have an universe with a lazy dude that does nothing all day , for the universe to be infinite everything has to be explored and created, and every creation deserves respect for that your very presence is the purpose of the universe

did you do anything special to come to a point where you want to balance those addictions? what did you do to come from an unconscious state of addiction, to a conscious state of wanting to change that addiction?

it is one of the most intense natural experiences, there is an insanely intense longing for it in most people. when people have sex they can briefly feel complete again, as one. it is connection to the source to control your sexual energy is core chakra work. we long so much for it that the process of using our sexual energy in harmonious way is very rewarding.. to stop something like smoking or drinking is hard, but to be in harmony with your sexual energy takes some severe introspection. enlightenment is pretty intense....I had times when resisting my urges wasn't just hard, it was flatout torture, like being daggered in the heart, times where my longing for sex was so intense I was thinking of killing myself. but it was normal, as you purge these beliefs that you need another human being to feel good and complete you get super sensitive to the suffering your belief is causing. not to help that my third eye is wide open, the further I go, the more divinity I see in the physical world, so women look like pure goddesses and models compared to the women I used to see before my path of enlightenment. so its resisting urges while desire increases and increases, it was just madness,I'm glad I'm starting to get at the end of this

after careful consideration I agree wholeheartedly with your post! you're basically get in touch with the inner layers of reality, the planes and the dimensions , the timeless experiences beyond our conscious awareness, or slipping right under it, but that are still apart of us and our experience

nofap is like a spirituality cheatmode. it is insanely effective for enlightenment

exactly, the difference is always in the consciousness, if you are doing these things unconsciously then no that is not good. but if you are very conscious of your intent to enlighten, you are conscious of your desires to advance, and your instinct is guiding you these things then let it happen. can't you see how absolutely wonderful this is? the beauty of it, it feels like letting yourself go, like you're giving up on your life, and just by doing these ''unproductive'' activities can we invite this feeling of life threat. just by these quite innocent activities really can you feel your ego being threatened to death. feel the sheer ridiculous immensity of your feelings involved just because you are doing these small activities. what's wrong with tv, porn, internet, food, video games? you are dabbling in culture, art, sexuality, you are living like no human being has ever lived before...people couldn't do this a thousand years ago, your lifestyle is amazing and IS worth exploring. why else would you do this?if not that there is amazing things to be discovered? but you have to be able to get past the society ego that is screaming shame and laziness. you are literally the one upholding your reality, nothing in your life came into your hands by luck, you are sustaining reality, every instant of your life is yours, you don't owe anyone anything. contribute to society? each of us is upholding the very fibres of physical reality with our spirit, we are not our bodies , we are the environment, what more do you need to do? what more do you need to prove? you are free to relax and do whatever the F you want. we are gods if thats porn and video games for now on your list , honestly let it be as it, explore, take your time to enjoy. how will we enjoy greater things, divine realms and experiences,when we can't even enjoy being lazy and doing these small ''unproductive things''. accept, enjoy, and growth will come inevitably, if you are attracted to these things now there is a reason, there are amazing things to be learned,if you want to learn the lesson, look for joy,love and acceptance as the guides

this is consciousness work, it's long but it's definitely worth it ups and downs...I can really relate to that, but haven't you in the meantime made steady progress the thing about this is that it's really weird, you really have to give up on success, on condition, it's not that there's anything wrong with success, but the label itself, putting identity on your life is painful, the label has to be dropped, so that you may simply be, whether that qualifies as success or not, your mind has to be emptied of the meaning of ''success'', and ''good'' and ''bad'' the most honest answer is that the cycle will be broken, when you truely stop wishing for it to be broken. meaning that you have to find ways to accept yourself now without ulterior motive, truely accept, and find solace in your life as it is now. to manage this is to win, it's the key to unlocking unconditional self-love and freedom from suffering, its a bit normal that this will be a long road. but it will only be as long as you resist, enlightenment is infinity. if you were truely able to give up on getting better, and accept your life as it is right now, this very second, to be satisfied with your life as it is right now, you would enlighten immediately. the you that expects results pretty much has to die, whether it's through a thousand stabs of dealing with the pain of expectations or with a sudden realization. or maybe a few more expectations that will hurt will get you there...I definitely don't want you to think this is supposed to be long and hard, enlightenment is always just around the corner, its up to us to figure it out personally but not a single second of suffering is wasted, everytime you suffer, and you stand through it you grow

you've done perfectly. to be this sensitive is all that's needed, as you steal you feel that you are quite practically stealing from yourself. you're far away from a person that steals unconsciously, even doing so with feelings of pleasure. you're stealing but being very conscious of what you're doing, understanding very well that you're hurting yourself. this is core consciousness work and heart chakra work it is inevitable that you will eventually stop this stealing, as each time you do it your heart chakra will make you hurt more and more, this hurting actually being the opening of your heart chakra, a good sign. so bear with the pain, and I know it's enormous, heart chakra work is very painful....but it's worth it. when you'll be done the idea of stealing will never enter your mind again, as you will feel it is literally like stealing from yourself and punching your heart in the chest

you cannot accept your negative and bad habits if you're still hoping for them to go away. embrace them, love them...and who knows eventually you will outgrow them. don't even think about it, it's not even helpful. when you feel that distance, that distance that is true acceptance...so far is it, that you literally have to embrace your bad habits, let yourself go in them, completely, consciously, without monitoring if you're improving, without observing if the bad habits are being replaced, it is total surrender, a total let go of all control.....this is done with the trust in your instinct, the trust that your higher self is planning for you, guiding, so you don't have to keep track,you don't have to plan, you higher self will catch you and the other end of the valley and will make you change,but not because there is something wrong with you. the meaning of change has to be understood you don't change out of fear, out of inferiority, you change out of love. you don't change because there is something wrong with you, you change because you are perfect right now as you are change is the nature of the universe, it is not correction, it is life the universe is in an infinite dance of creation, to create is to be, to change is to be infinitely expanding, infinite creation, change is our property to connect with the nature of the universe is to love who you are right now, love is infinite intelligence, infinite growth which is why you don't have to worry about changing, just love who you are and you will naturally change, literally naturally,what is loved is meant to bloom you're not gonna stop changing if you accept yourself as you are, you will change more then ever, as a flower sprinkled with water...so is acceptance our water to our blooming
