  1. @Leo Gura I think these guys are a good example of what you’re saying: I like their content but man, I feel like for everything on this matter they need to find a explanation or at least a human world physics pov explanation, nothing wrong to do that first but, I get a sense that, to what degree do you really wanna believe on such matter.
  2. @puporing I haven’t even thought about having abstinence before a mushroom trip but it would make sense to a degree if I want it to compare the “diet” similarly to ayahuasca. With mushrooms I just prepare a few days in advance and that’s it (like 5 days to a week). Optimal for me would mean that I had done most of my work done or organized so I can be relaxed before trip. Having mostly or at best everything organize before trip (have my rent up to date so you don’t get any worries during your trip, have a few days free after trip, food prepare if you get hungry during the trip, even tho I just eat fruits or raw natural foods). Aside of eat the shrooms with a empty stomach of course. I’ll trip once every 1-2 weeks, sometimes even once a month or few months! Some trips can be so life changing or existencial that you’ll need free time to intergrate.????❤️ @Yali, what are you trying to imply with this? That Leo should kill himself? I noticed that sometimes you go straight forward to respond some people like Leo and become “personal” with them to the point of confrontation, what’s up with that?
  3. I’ll add to my post, there is a saying where I live on spanish but I’ll translate, maybe you guys have it differently: “In a informed war, people might still die, but lesser than uninformed.” That is how I tend to approach having a habit, nothing wrong also not having a habit a few times (having a break for example), is your playground so, have fun with it!
  4. Having a Life Purpose, what you’d be doing if the forum din’t exists? I come here on my free time. If you have nothing else going on in your life, you’d be attached not just to the forum but to maybe other stuff. Something I been doing recently to help me “reset my mind” a bit is to turn off my phone for the day(s), be alone and see what I can come up with. Sometimes I start cleaning my place to eventually have a walk outside or keep doing paintings and such, but I also have a like a daily schedule that I prepare on my weekends (I sometimes see this like prepare for a “war”/week), investigate a bit about the power of habits, without one, one is probably just wondering around without short-term/long-term goals. ?????
  5. Digital art: Traditional drawing: Graphic Design / Logo: Video Editing, Videography, Photography, Traditional Painting, a bit of Animation, and more ??❤️?:
  6. @ZGROPIUS Are these really yours? They look dope af.
  7. Tbh this din’t seemed as a joke at first, I don’t know what are you trying to intend with the post. It looked as a serious “emergency”. If you tripped just recently a few days ago, take it easy please.
  8. ??
  9. @Michael Jackson Others could give a better and specific advice than me but in my opinion, is normal for the body to not react at first with some psychedelics, in order for the body to recognize what you just had put into it (happens the same for people with for example ayahuasca, they might not feel anything at all on the first or two sessions, maybe even more who knows), also consider your tolerance to psychedelics. I tend to wait like 1-2 weeks off and then trip again, but since you din’t feel alot I would assume you would like to wait some days, I belive the tool is already working on some level even tho we don’t feel anything. I don’t know if you’re in a hurry to have a experience with the tool but, take your time. ????❤️
  10. Similar to other responses, 1g would be my advice, then little by little by .5 or 1g. I don’t know if you have a gram scale but be sure to have one just in case. I mostly trust who I buy these tools but, I had ocassions where they give something extra and I preferably like to consume a precise dosage or just be aware how much actually I’m consuming, unless I feel like a adventurer that day hehe (on low dosages), but I rather measure it first for not regret it later (also the potency of each shroom is gonna vary so this is hard to tell also). Have a good trip brother!
  11. +1 I think this is gonna work out different for each individual, experience here for me is gonna be king always. I tried once a polyamory relationship with 3 girlfriends at the same time (each of them knew about each other but never met) and it din’t last long, like a month or so, I felt it was too much overwhelmed on a energy/emotional level, hard to point out a specific emotion but I remember I was feeling stress out and a bit lost or confuse. I even got jeleous a few times while I had 3 people? Something wasn’t right so I ended up staying just with one (maybe was a fear of losing my options). Maybe in the future I might try out a threesome relationship and we all know and share with each other. Because on the previous one well, if the other people is also sleeping with the other people, it can get very messy and sticky, pun itended hehe. I felt I was holding a weight of emotions with these partners back then, I had to divide and organice my time with all 3 and it was of course time and energy consuming, so I stayed monogamous since then.
  12. @Yali well, still, he is not calling you with any names right? Nutritionist people are doing their best to help humanity at large anyway so. I just think that we should threat others they way we wanted to be threatened too, depending the circumstances of course. If I don’t like somebody’s take, I move on, ignore it, if not then I see if I can expand awareness on the subject asking certain questions, either questioning somebody’s knowledge/belief system (maybe to help him out, you name the example) or try to move forward the conversation. I know for a fact that @Michael569 has done A LOT for the forum. But hey man, at the end, you do you. ??
  13. @Yali be more respectful towards @Michael569. ??
  14. @BuddhistLover I can understand how you feel brother, I thought I was straight for most of my life. I discovered I am bisexual on 2018 (I was 22) by questioning myself after one relationship, I was feeling that something was missing because my past relationships back then felt a bit “unsatisfied at times or something was missing”, until I questioned if I was actually gay or bisexual. After some exploration that year, sure I can confirm I am bisexual after sleep with a man, I think experience is king ? here so, if you have doubt, to make sure, sleep with a man or a woman if you doubt yourself (it is possible also to not connect with the right person at first so be patience, at least for me it was very instant with the first guy I sleep with and it was a “aha! So this is what’s up then” moment hehe). Because also looking by porn, I actually never if not mostly never search for gay porn, maybe trans people at times, but you actually aren’t sure enough until you have the experience. With that example sayed, to my understanding and experience, it seems that my % towards women is more than men, I still have to work alot more on the male side. Have the experience is what I better suggest. ???
  15. @SamC I would suggest to keep it cool. With the people I slept with, they never asked, we might talk later on with how many people we had slept but is not necessary. If they ask you either way and you are still a virgin then “well, it’s a secret brah!” -Frank Yang voice*. When you finish your business hehe, you can said the truth if you feel like.
  16. During a argument no, for me of course, you can hurt other people’s feelings depending their self esteem. I can forgive que person once but if she/he keep doing it, I will have to cut it off the relationship, I have nothing to lose here, you gotta value/respect yourself more. If is once I would said “What the fuck did you call me?!” haha, if the person is not willing to change on that point then I will have to break it off the relationship, the person would need to do some healing, I have no time for unnecessary pointing fingers and calling each other names, I deeply value my time with the people I love and care. I learned when I was younger thanks to the book “The 4 Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz, the second agreement it says “Do Not Take Anything Personally”, whatever people do or said, is a projection of their own dream. Is a short and fast reading book, you should probably check it out. ??❤️? Be also Impecable with your word (the first agreement). I don’t think anyone can control their emotions since is a body-mind reaction, but rather how aware/conscious and patience are you in order to transmute your emotion in a way that you don’t start to breaking stuff or hurting people emotionally and physically. You can scream like Leo he did once to his dentist lol (sorry to bring up that Leo). I don’t know if you get intensely angry everyday, how often, if it happens alot to you sister then, it should probably be something to look up forward in you, understand why you do it and heal it (one should look up what healing technique/tools works best for them imo) in order to love yourself even more so your next relationships get so much better?❤️?. Is ok to get angry at stuff, my question would be, to what degree.
  17. When you explain it, I get it, straight to the point, no BS, with him it seems I have to be some extra patience which I know is not my current situation (I’m constantly if not mostly working on projects). I might do a “30 days Sadhguru Listening “Challenge” “ in order to understand him more hehe, eventually I need to take some time to study his biography deep enough, etc. No doubt there has to be some golden nuggets…or golden hair haha.jk
  18. If you guys want to check what he was trying to focus on the podcast: https://consciousplanet.org/
  19. +1 Joe asks for the 100th time “well, what are the techniques to start improving this guy’s life?” Sadhguru gives a fundamental theory or just another anecdote “Well you see Joe…”. Also he said that books are for inspiration, not for instructions…*scratch my head on engineer, lawyer, chef, doctor, building something and other occupations head lenguage* All jokes and criticism aside, at least I know he had done some good stuff. Good that he wanted to give some awareness about the Soil subject, will give it a look now. ??
  20. I am vegan since 2018, it took sometime to transition because since the hurricane Maria on 2017, Puerto Rico was very limited on resource/food so I was eating for quite some time canned foods. I became first pescatarian, eating lots of canned tuna back then and bread (chef boyardee also but rarely, I had to improvise), when things started to get better I added Salmon and later on that year I told myself “well I’m here now, I think this is the time to change my diet for good”, and became vegetarian for 7 months till I became completely vegan. My intentions was mostly for myself, it made me feel lighter and less heavy compared after eating lots of meat. Nowadays sure, I have more reasons like helping the enviroment. I suggest two strong and good documentaries which make you understand the impact of climate change by supporting the consumption of cow products, meat and fish (I’m ok if is local and pasteurized/grassfeed but still by how climate change is looking, I will stay vegan): If I’m traveling and I have to improvise with eating some animal products (which had happened with eggs and cheese and I was starving af), sure no problem, I get back on track. Do your best is what counts for me.????
  21. That was “Mumbo Jambo” lol . No but for real it was a interesting listen, I felt Sadhguru wanted to keep focus on what he came to talk about Soil which is fine but, once he started to get out of subject I felt I could enjoy more listen to him and not sticking to the script or so to said, it seemed more human/natural to me. I felt at times he wasn’t answering straight foward to Joe’s questions just for the sake of avoiding answering them? Protect his image or try not to look bad on camera? I felt also that he wasn’t open minded enough that he could be wrong about certain perspectives and he has to be right, I don’t know, it was entertained tho.
