It was obviously alien tech.

If you have been seeing this thing of “hostile alien ship heading to earth by November”, this is absolutely false. It’s fake news created through social media to distract from actual issues. Please do not believe this crap. I’ve seen a shocking number of people on social media buying this.

Quick update and overview: I have changed the names once again to make them shorter and more fitting. Also, I came up with names for the new ones. Modes Taxonic (order, object, matter, external, autism) Old: Hyloexonic Animonic (spirit, psyche, emotion, fantasy, senses, internal, HSP) Old: Phenoendonic Semionic (symbol, conformity, meaning, story, identity, social, togetherness) Old: Semiosynconic Holonic (whole, holistic, interconnected, big picture, dyslexia, systemic, dialectic) Volonic (will, power, action, movement, passion orientation) Paraonic (chaos, absurdity, surprise, comedy, paradox, openness, contradiction, novelty) Geonic (alien, beyond human grasp) I scrapped aesthetic being since beauty is a symptom of modal alignment, not a seperate mode (in my conception). Radom insights Creativity is Paravolonic: Action out of openness, leading to something unexpected and novel. I think schizotypy might be Animaparaonic Other Ontonic (existence, non-duality, being, self, neutrality, ontological, phenomenon, absolute, contemplation) all modes are just different illusory manifestations of this one mode (?). Amodal (Sunyata) (not accessible to a being) Transmodal (nirvana, transcendence, enlightenment) (accessible to a being) Modally aligned (love, fulfilled, existence, self, flow, beauty) Modally disaligned (fear, emptiness*, non-existence, no-self, depletion) Omnimodal, something with all modes *not sunyata, used as opposite of fulfilled. I plan to never use the word "empty" for sunyata I think.

Truth is, if we had not being conformist of what each word in a sentence mean and had all sharing the same learning of this writings we would look to this scribblings and see nothing but hierogliphs. You knew no writing before coming into life, you was born like an alien in an alien world and had to be indocrinated into this thing of languague. Otherwise you would be just like a dog barking. Imagine being not able to understand any of this writing. Like, looking to english writings and would be no different than Mandarin to your eyes? I think there is a mental condition where people forget their own language.

@Leo Gura sorry that you are so estranged, separated, and alienated from your inner femininity. As a man, femininity is actually the closest thing to my heart. You cannot truly 'understand' it with the mind, you must surrender to your pain and detach from your mind - just like sinking into a hot bath tub. Except that you will dissolve in that bathtub without control.

if i can quiet the struggles around food and anxiety.... now i'm actually excited for the days to come, getting to know the new city and everything. it'll be good. feeling this enthusiastic is so alien to me.

"The master-stroke of the Jew was to claim the leadership of the fourth estate: he founded the Movement both of the Social Democrats and the Communists. His policy was twofold: he had his 'apostles' in both political camps. Amongst the parties of the Right he encouraged those features which were most repugnant to the people—the passion for money, unscrupulous methods in trade which were employed so ruthlessly as to give rise to the proverb 'Business, too, marches over corpses.' And the Jew attacked the parties of the Right. Jews wormed their way into the families of the upper classes: it was from the Jews that the latter took their wives. The result was that in a short time it was precisely the ruling class which became in its character completely estranged from its own people. And the Jew's second instrument was the Marxist theory in and for itself. For directly one went on to assert that property as such is theft, directly one deserted the obvious formula that only the natural wealth of a country can and should be common property, but that that which a man creates or gains through his honest labor is his own, immediately the economic intelligentsia with its nationalist outlook could, here too, no longer co-operate: for this intelligentsia was bound to say to itself that this theory meant the collapse of any human civilization whatever. Thus the Jew succeeded in isolating this new movement of the workers from all the nationalist elements. More and more so to influence the masses that he persuaded those of the Right that the faults of the Left were the faults of the German workman, and similarly he made it appear to those of the Left that the faults of the Right were simply the faults of the so-called 'Bourgeois,' and neither side noticed that on both sides the faults were the result of a scheme planned by alien devilish agitators. And only so is it possible to explain how this dirty joke of world history could come to be that Stock Exchange Jews should become the leaders of a Workers Movement. It is a gigantic fraud: world history has seldom seen its like." ~a direct quote from one of Adolf Hitler's speaches. You could apply what Hitler was describing 100years ago to today as a fun comparison and see how it matches.

About the insane Social-Symbolic-Alien Language non-Truth-Sensitive-People use Do you also hate making presents? Since forever, my family hates on me for sucking at making presents. And I beat myself up for it. They say I'm not empathic enough, too egoistic bla bla bla. My best explanation was, that I'm an only child and I've never properly learned it. Theory break: According to me, there exists a kind of neurodiversity I call "Truth-Sensitive-Person" (TSP). I believe, that TSPs exist on a spectrum between object-sensitive-person (OSP) and subject-sensitive-person (SSP) (this model is a work in progress. In previous posts, I used TLP). What all TSPs have in common is a love for absolute truth and a disdain for and a lack of understanding of social truths. More on that below. I have an alternative explanation now. My grandma told me that she is always super thrilled and happy when she receives little gifts like cake from her cleaning lady, and she is disappointed that me and my mom (also SSP) would not engage in little acts of affection like these too. What I've noticed is that this (happiness about gifts from others for their own sake) is not the case for me and my mom at all. Which means that even if we were lazy and egoistic (which we are not) we are at least not hypocrites. In fact, we are always annoyed by gifts from other people, when they are not useful to us. You might now say: "Of course you are. Why would you be happy to receive a gift that you have no use for?" If you believe this logic, you might be on the TSP spectrum. Because for a non-TSP, this logic does not apply at all. When they receive a gift from someone they love, they are super thrilled if that gift is well-meant. The crucial thing to understand, and it is hard to understand for TSPs, is that non-TSPs are not thrilled about the present itself. They get most of their pleasure from the gesture. The present is a symbol to them. This is because non-TSPs speak a completely batshit insane kind of social-symbolic-alien language they picked up and learned passively through conformity like their native language and are super confused about anyone who struggles to speak it, like TSPs, who only care about information (or spiritual truth if you are HSP) and struggle to pick up on these social symbols. Expecting a TSP to implicitly understand this social symbolic language is like starting to talk to some random person on the street in chinese and then being mad and confused, if they don't understand the fuck you're saying. And non-TSPs do that all the damn time! This leads TSPs to develop social anxiety, low self-esteem, etc. People who are TSPs naturally struggle with social situations, especially competitive ones because of this. They will genuinely start believing they have to learn tens of hours of pickup theory and do thousands of approaches to be successful without ever understanding, that they are not meant to engage in this alien language, the same way someone with an IQ of 80 is not meant to study thermodynamics. (If you think you might be TSP, you don't have to worry, just seek out other TSPs irl. They understand you perfectly and vice versa) I want to give another example from my life. I once dated a girl with heavy ADHD. This made her relatable to me, but she is not a TSP. One day, she was kind of in a bad mood, and she asked me: "Do you think I drink too much water?". I answered by dumping her with all the information I knew about the topic "how much water is too much water". After that, she was pissed and said: "What does any of this have to do with the question?". I was stumped. What did I do wrong? You have any ideas? I thought, that she wanted to know if she drinks too much water. Big mistake. See the mistake? If you don't or struggle to answer, then maybe you are a TSP too. It took me some time to figure it out, but I think I got it. She did not want to know if she drinks too much water. She wanted to know if I think that she drinks too much. She just wanted me to affirm that I accept her for drinking so much water. When you dig deep enough you will realize, what she actually asked was: "Do you approve of my existence?". This is at the fundamental reason for all social interactions between non-TSPs. This is why they need social interactions, because without them, they wouldn't know whether they exist. To TSPs, this logic makes zero sense. When we are faced with questions or insecurities regarding our existence, we would NEVER even THINK about going to a cleaning lady for affirmations (nothing against cleaning ladies). Because what the fuck would they know about existence???? What we do instead is we study philosophy if we are more on the autism side, meditate when we are more on the HSP side and do both if we are hybrids. In case this did not get clear enough: The reason why TSPs are here on this forum is because we are genetically unable to be satisfied with answers about our own existence from our cleaning ladies. Or positively reframed: We are not stupid enough to believe that receiving gifts from our cleaning lady is sufficient to affirming our existence.

Ha. Hey thx, and yes, vry true. Oh, nd i jus listened to something/experienced something highly unusual, but beautiful. I fell asleep listenin to Whatever the fk this video was from like 9 years ago (it started AFTER i was asleep, so you might say, we were on the same very alien path of myth and mystery), And omg did this take me to the strangest of Prometheus spacecrafts over-an-ever-changing-painting-of-scenes Dreams. Like, this is a gr8 example of something, which on the surface doesnt follow the *ideal like, emphatic typeve description or like the ideal collection of clauses (XD) but Woh, i cannot believe where i went. And alls i did was very slightly open up to ostensibly somethin that wouldve made no sense to me since, but it actually in the long run has made more sense to me now (outside of ancient greece, that part wasnt featured in my dream since it took *new form), and im not quite sure if it would *fit in that thing i wrote. Like i sortve put myself to shame by way of experiencing this like, Little Mermaid of Disney Scenescape -typeve things, over this like mythic seashore horizon?

The problem is that Actualized.org is Leo's mind on a evolution cycle. His teachings became advanced to the point of extreme abstraction. We see here on the forum the lack of basic normie self-help. People just parrot "God this, God that, Alien this, Alien that" but they are living in their parents home. This is not Leo's fault. It is just evolution. People need to wake up. Back to the basics. Agree 100% w/ yourself.

Language as an alien parasite. Crazy theory! 🤯

The problem with these stage green idealists is that they seem to kind of ignore cause and effect. Why would it follow that the future is inherently anti-capitalist and a communal pseudo-anarchy at the same time? There has to be a cause resulting in said vision. Certain things are not possible due to the limits of human nature and survival either. Like, I don't see humans dividing into smaller and more independent settlements for any reason if it's not caused by some kind of effect. Like maybe you'll see fairly technological/self-sufficient settlements temporarily crop up during the colonization of an alien planet. By the way, that doesn't follow that these settlements are necessarily going to be more peaceful than what we have today, especially if these settlements individually are more resource poor (IE. cause for conflict). It's also not possible to abolish capitalism since trade is part of human nature. You would only really see that diminish through some kind of post-scarcity inducing technology diminishing the need for trade as a whole. Again, there has to be a cause to get the effect. Pure idealism ends up just being a bunch of fantasies if your not careful, or a projection of a far flung future where technology has rendered today's survival challenges obsolete. Like for example environmentalism. We currently can't survive without pollution. Notice how these green ideals cannot be generally realized until we reached a certain point technologically and socially. It's not a practical way of thinking to fantasize about a future where our problems have already been solved somehow.

Not on this planet lmao. Sexy alien girlfriend never been so in demand

Alien Love creates Man then the Magic Wand is unleashed

We can easily agree on the experience of chocolate because it's a tangible thing. The nature of experiences are not. With chocolate, we can point to the same object, confirm we're eating the same thing, compare notes with some confidence. "Infinite Love" has none of that. Words cannot grasp experience of things in the abstract. So how can you know your experience of "infinite love" matches Leo's experience of it? You can't, yet here you and many others are saying that you know EXACTLY what Leo means when he says "infinite love". How do you know it was "infinite" and not just really big? Is it really big, "infinite" or boundless? These are different things. For all I know, I've experienced it myself but never put a label on it, because I'm not gonna map Leo's labels to my own experiences - that would be a mistake. I'm betting a high percentage of Leo's followers unquestioningly adopted the idea of "Alien Consciousness" as well. Saying things like "I can't wait to discover Alien Consciousness", as if they already know it's a real thing. Then, one day, you have a deep trip on 5meo and experience something that fits the label, then you show up on the forum talking about you know with 100% certainty you experienced Alien Consciousness. "You'd know if you knew" is a great self-sealing epistemological bubble. Concept introduced -> pre-accepted -> experience interpreted through concept -> reported as confirmation. No different from religion and cults. I'm not knocking anyone for making this error. I made it myself with Leo's work when I was younger.

Post it if you like, we all have the guilty pleasure of watching public meltdowns/freakouts. But in the end you'll have to decide what is your highest priority — having fun or getting the message across; there are tricky & delicate ways to do both, but the secondary must necessarily be sacrificed and compromised in service of the primary. And no, I don't think it's justified even if what you say in the next paragraph is the reality of the situation, because I hold myself to certain standards of emotional maturity, which includes maintaining self-control even in (or rather, especially) the face of offense. More fundamentally, your interpretation could simply be wrong. The content of his comment is irrelevant, whether it's factually true or not is not the issue. Consider that people feel justified trolling your posts because they're presented in a way conducive to that. What you perceive as a serious, albeit dishonest argument, in reality is nothing more than a snarky offhand comment (there's also the possibility that what each of you defines as a 'hobby' differs drastically, but there's not enough time in the world to explicate such nuance). Leo has made multiple asinine and vulgar comments on this forum over the years, but what of it? Think of the entirety of Actualized.org as a building — the rooftop is the channel videos and course(s) where you breathe pristine air of philosophy, middle & ground floors are the blog/booklist, and the forum is the basement — a testing ground for new ideas and a platform to connect to like-minded people on the best of days, but usually just a cesspool of spiritual ego clashes, repetitive & trivial platitudes, shitposting, whining and venting about politics or dating or whatever. Even if you start a serious discussion presented in a proper manner, it likely still won't get any significant engagement, while the garbage has dozens of pages, but the quality of posts in such threads will itself be garbage. The truth is that we're not as different from other communities as we like to believe. Didn't Leo say time and time again that humans do not care about truth, that not caring about truth is corruption, and that he's still not above corruption? Connect the dots, there's your answer. I say this while having my own disagreements with the guy, particularly regarding the imprecise and inefficient ways of administering psychedelics he continues to promote (sometimes even using toxic masculine rhetoric) without realizing they really only work so well due to his uniquely sensitive genetics but yield mediocre results for the average person, or his repeated failures to deliver on courses promised (alien awakening, subconscious reprogramming). He doesn't even reply to my posts anymore, which I briefly used to take personally, but it obviously isn't, and even if it were, I don't care; in fact it was a healthy and necessary experience to unburden myself from dependency on approval and attention of someone I look up to. What's the solution? In the former case, I say my piece, lay out the arguments, and move on; whether it's taken under advisement is neither my concern nor responsibility, as I'm not the one wasting my trips/substances, sharing my knowledge is contribution enough. In the latter, I take it upon myself to develop and implement these techniques from scratch, and if the courses finally end up materializing, I'll still take them and find positive synergies that'll create something greater than the sum of its parts. Sovereignty of mind, interpretation, recontextualization, content vs. structure, self-awareness, truthful perception, holistic & strategic thinking — all these core teachings are at play here. Instead of focusing on Leo's inadequacies, which is a distraction, treat it as an opportunity to test how much you actually understand and are able to effectively utilize these principles. Speaking from experience, chances are you're in for a rude awakening, which is why that's the last thing anyone wants to do. Your responsibility is to hold yourself accountable, not him. That's the real work. The standards of integrity and truthfulness you're demanding are so high that this ironically makes them untruthful. And here's the test of your love — are you willing to sacrifice the need to maintain your current incoherent communication style, as a start, in order to practically impart your insights on ND? If not, well, that's just the current extent of it. But it gets worse. This year I'll create the most extensive guide to psychedelics to date, which will require at least 100 hours of work and performing several potentially life-threatening experiments on myself, all the while being fully aware it's quite likely to fall into obscurity or get straight up disallowed because it's "too dangerous" or something. That's how truth and love interrelate in the relative domain — you must clearly see that the vast majority simply won't care no matter what you do, not judging them for it, and yet have faith that just a few will get the message and spread the love in whichever ways they're capable. Which is what Leo has been doing all along, so appreciate and get inspired by it. Well, I suppose you are inspired, but the execution needs a whole lot of adjustment, and that starts with taking a step back and reflecting, not doubling down.

I don’t really even understand the ultimate point behind this debate around the concept of gender, to be honest. They’re going to claim that it doesn’t exist, that gender shouldn’t be a binary, and that it’s just self-expression, that anyone should express it however they feel like. But then these sorts of people only express it in binary ways; mostly as a rebellion against convention: some males dress the way women conventionally would, and some women dress the way men usually would or whatever. Character traits and behaviours get swapped as well, again in rebellion against how men and women are perhaps expected to behave. Okay fine. A very small number of extra strange people might get weird bodily modifications to make themselves look like an alien or something. But what’s the point ultimately? This all just seems hollow to me. “You are free to express yourself in whatever way you want,” as if that’s some great liberation from something. It seems to be relevant only for a fairly small segment of the population; otherwise, it’s just a waste of brain capacity to be thinking about. "B..b..but you are such a boring POS if you don't subscribe to this!" That's fine by me. I'll be a boring POS no problem

How i see it is that (nature understands nature) and has been perfecting and adapting / evolving in harmony to find balance and equilibrium in all life and all living beings with the environment. The harsh chemicals in natural things don't effect us or as seen as foreign to our bodies as synthetics, and our bodies usually have developed defenses and evolved and adapted to be able to handle and know what to do when too much of something naturally toxic has been consumed to prevent premature death. Of course there are quite toxic things out there, but you'll often find are actually nowhere near as toxic as we've been spoon fed to believe. I've been bit by venomous insects, spiders, even a snake once, and nothing serious ever happened. I've ate a bunch of amanita mushrooms and never had a bad experience, in fact I felt amazing, i observed the animals, how they ate them, i followed and discovered somethings, of course I wouldn't touch death caps, we all know about them, but even if i did, next to them grow milk thistles, the cure for mushroom poisoning, nature has it all figured out, we just need to open our eyes and senses and become properly re-educated. This is also because I stay close to nature and do not artificialize my immune system with modern medicine, pharma drugs, synthetic substances and supplements, false foods and vaccines, so when I do get exposed to something toxic, i still have a naturally functioning immune system that knows how to do its job. You often find people who are raised more artificially who then go out into nature and die of the smallest insect, and its the same for a natural man who was raised in the bush, if they all of a sudden are dropped into the modern environment we live today, they get very sick very quickly and often why indigenous people had some of the highest rates of deaths and bad reactions from the covid vaccine, its entirely alien to their systems. Another example would be fluoride and sodium fluoride, one is toxic that our bodies see as a "foreign substance" and one is not as much, because its naturally occurring, but also at quantities 100 - 1000x less than they put in our tap water or toothpastes. Or Lets say Apricot seeds, they have been very beneficial for their abilities to target and kill cancer cells, and yet its the naturally occurring cyanide in them that does it, but take too much artificial cyanide or selenium, its probably your life, and yet eat all the brazil nuts and apricot seeds you want, the body seems to know what to do with the excess and has natural indicators that signal us to stop when its enough or too much, unless of course we salt and roast them which then tricks us further. This is where people get into trouble, our entire system is backwards from the natural way unfortunately. Or here's another example, CBD oil works wonders for most people, and yet once my friend was taking meds the doctors gave him for a surgery he had, and i wanted to help him out with some CBD oil, and he had a very bad reaction, because his body was flooded with all these artificial medicine there was a clash in the system of competitiveness. It was a very (wake up call) experience for me, because I know it has helped him before. Same thing for Ayahuasca and MAOIs ect... far less likely to have bad reaction with natural herbs but take it with MDMA and you can die.

Will we ever get a course or video or blog post? I would Love to dive as deep as possible. @Leo Gura

@LambdaDelta I'm not against going to alien dimensions of consciousness , but I think I'd like to deepen my nondual awakening first . Thanks , I would have assumed it could be vaped / similar to ketamine / could be weighed accurately on a scale otherwise .

Vaporizing 3-HO produces toxic byproducts, so indeed you wouldn't. Just because PCP smokes well, doesn't mean a similar molecule does. Chemistry is one of the most dangerous fields to make assumptions in, just something to keep in mind for future reference. Might wanna volumetrically dose the substance since above 8mg is considered a heavy dose, ain't no way this can be measured on a scale. Couldn't tell you how it's objectively superior per se, the duration is longer and it can penetrate into consciousness much deeper, there's really no other way to describe it. Ketamine just doesn't cut it for me, feels lukewarm; it's like with any other tool, there are some jobs it's inadequate for. And who knows, maybe you'll hate the 3-subs. Some people gravitate towards the K side (Ket, DCK, 2F-DCK...), while others like me find them boring. One way to find out. But don't expect the same No-Self type states. Substances like 3-HO-PCP, O-PCE, DPT, 4-AcO-DMT are geared towards utterly alien dimensions of consciousness. If that doesn't suit your tastes or you don't feel ready to handle them, better hold off.

Howdy, I thought I might share a philosophy article I've been working on. The article presents a different take on nondualism than that of Leo and many other folks on this forum, for left-brained folks who might appreciate a different approach to the subject. It's a phenomenology-first approach to nondualism that I've arrived at after years of study and contemplation, which places its real-world applications for our fractured present at the forefront. (If you'd prefer to read this on my actual Substack, here's a link) https://7provtruths.substack.com/p/nondualism-for-naturalists-the-uncommon _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Nondualism For Naturalists | The Uncommon Sense Of World Disclosure Nondualism usually comes wrapped in a dense layer of mysticism. This is the naturalist version: grounded in biology, evolution, and phenomenology - and urgently relevant to our fractured present. A Slap In The Face To Common Sense The exploration we’re embarking upon kicks off with a shot across the bow to common sense - and toward what we might call uncommon sense. At its core is a disorienting premise that’s at odds with how we typically understand our relationship to the world around us. What we’ll be challenging is a way of carving up Reality that’s picked up unconsciously through daily life - and mistaken, by virtue of its familiarity, for objective truth. So strap in, because the familiar is about to become strange. This premise may well land like a slap in the face to what feels self-evident - and that’s by design, because the self-evident has a habit of papering over hidden assumptions. Here’s the slap: the world of people, places, and things we spend our lives immersed in - otherwise known as our lived reality - isn’t some pre-made set that we wander onto, its features in place before we arrive. It’s a home we actively assemble and inhabit - a disclosed world that’s built by our mind and mistaken for a discovery. But assembled from what? Not from thin air, of course - but from social and material ingredients we didn’t choose - including the people we share the world with, who are constructing their own version right alongside us. This goes well beyond “you have your interpretation, and I have mine” - it’s about what shows up as ‘real’ for us in the first place, long before interpretation enters the picture. There’s an old story about how perception works, and it goes like this: the world is ‘out there’, we experience it ‘in here’, and the latter is judged by its fidelity to the former. Our aim is to collapse that distinction - show that minds are worldly and worlds are minded. Call it nondualism if you’d like. Or don’t. The label matters less than what it lets us see, and what’s at stake. Far beyond philosophical navel gazing, world disclosure reaches to the beating heart of a social crisis we know all too well. One that extends from estranged families to fractured nations, from arguments over Thanksgiving dinner to the Big Lie that sparked an insurrection at the US Capitol. When realities become incompatible without adequate release valves to vent the pressure, violence fills the gap and democracies crumble. The stakes are viscerally real - so let’s ground this destabilizing premise before we turn it towards our societal divisions. The Uncommon Sense Of World Disclosure Enough preamble, then - what are minds actually doing when they ‘construct’ a lived reality? In a sense, they’re shaping our environment into a home that we can reside in. And just as a house is designed for a human lifestyle - homes aren’t built underwater, doors aren’t placed in ceilings - minds construct a version of Reality that’s tailored for our needs and capacities. This process has a name: world disclosure. A ‘world‘ here isn’t the planet - it’s a cumulative whole of meaningful boundaries, patterns, and relationships for a living being - raw materials, translated into something livable. To distinguish the two, we’ll use capital-R ‘Reality’ for the raw materials, and lowercase ‘reality’ for the livable version. To disclose means to reveal - to uncover what’s unseen or unnoticed. World disclosure, then, is the process by which Reality gets reworked into a home we can actually reside in - not discovered ready-made, but built through a partnership between living beings and their environment. And just like a physical house, a disclosed world is constituted by its boundaries - walls that separate inside from outside, here from there, mine from yours. Everyday perception is built on them: Mind and World. Self and Other. Subject and Object. Load-bearing divisions that arise so effortlessly we have difficulty imagining that they could be anything other than inherent features of Reality itself. As immutable as gravity, unquestionable as distance - or so the story goes. And therein lies the issue - what’s unquestioned hardens into dogma. Reification: When Mental Boundaries Bleed Into The Real World Understanding where these divisions come from should loosen their hold on our day-to-day thinking - not pry them away entirely, but render them more fluid and negotiable. Why is this advantageous? Because it breaks the spell of reification - the habit of chiseling divisions into stone, and then claiming they were always part of the landscape. Racial hierarchies are one example of how ugly this can get, but one need not reach for the most egregious cases to grasp the benefits of more flexible modes of thinking. For one, it gives us more room to maneuver when these divisions aren’t serving a worthwhile purpose. For another, it helps us get a sense of how others might carve things up differently, thus opening the door to understanding perspectives that seem alien to us - including viewpoints that we’re committed to fighting (one need not tolerate Nazis to see the value in understanding their reality). But to reap these benefits, we need to understand how such divisions arise in the first place. So if boundaries aren’t fixed features of Reality, where do they come from? The short answer: they emerge through co-authorship. Your every perception - the edge of a table, the sound of traffic, the warmth of the sun on your skin - is an act of construction, built by your mind and the world working in tandem. Let that sink in - and consider what it means for our fractured public sphere. When two people can watch a video of the same event and see completely different realities, that’s world disclosure all the way down. And it’s also why facts don’t change minds - because what counts as a relevant fact depends on the world you’re living in. So does this mean that any world is as good as any other? Not at all - remember that world disclosure is a partnership, not a solo-act - and Reality gets the final veto. You can try inhabiting a world where E=MC² is ‘Jewish science’, but good luck trying to crack nuclear fission. Which is to say, disclosed worlds can be pathological - their wreckage measured in lives, not just errors. There are many ways to build a home. Not all of them are fit to live in. Minds Are Survival Machines, Not Metaphysical Engines While world disclosure is ultimately constrained by Reality, the mere suggestion that we co-construct what shows up without the slightest effort on our part might still sound preposterous. After all, the world is irrefutably independent of our whims and desires. And nothing here requires abandoning that intuition: minds are biological systems - not metaphysical engines that dream Reality into being. As anyone who’s ever tried to ignore gravity, hunger, or a deadline knows, the world knocks us on our ass when our constructions fall out of sync with how things actually behave. Yet the fact that this habitual carving up of Reality feels natural doesn’t put it beyond question. Quite the opposite, in fact, when we remember that our perception is scaffolded by biological processes that are opaque to our moment-to-moment awareness. Just as an eye doesn’t see how it sees, we don’t directly experience this perceptual scaffolding. Moreover, evolution is under no obligation to ensure that what feels viscerally real is what’s actually true - minds are survival engines, not a transparent window into Reality. What’s disclosed to us just needs to be compatible with survival - and if that means living in a useful simplification, so be it. If we accept that minds are biological systems shaped by evolution, the boundaries we take for granted might say more about us than about the world. So let’s stress-test these demarcations. Our goal isn’t to discard, but to contextualize - to show that they’re convenient sticky notes slapped over a seamless Reality. So this won’t be a ‘debunking’, in the usual sense of the word. What we’re chiefly interested in is why these divisions are so intuitive for us in the first place, and what their limitations are. A Biological Simulation This means revisiting some familiar starting points - beginning with one of the most celebrated statements in Western thought. “I think therefore I am,” Descartes declared - and in doing so, cleaved the thinking self off from the world of people, places, and things which makes thought meaningful for us in the first place. But is that separation as clean as it sounds? Consider: who precisely is the I that’s doing the thinking here? And is it a foregone conclusion that this I is separable from the world it inhabits? Descartes severed mind from world so completely that he accidentally invented the premise of ‘The Matrix’ three centuries early. And while Simulation Theory adherents might be chasing the wrong metaphor for human cognition, they’re inadvertently correct that we are living in a simulation - not of silicon and circuits, but of biology and neurons. One that’s generated by our own nervous system, and continuously updated by feedback from our physical and social environment - no computers required. Unlike ‘The Matrix’, a disclosed world isn’t an illusion - it’s a curated slice of Reality that’s attuned to your needs and capacities. The lived reality of people, places, and things that you experience during every waking moment of your life isn’t an objective account of what is - but neither is it a hallucination. It’s your mind’s best guess about what’s going on in the world around you. Remember: your mind isn’t some malevolent architect that’s trying to deceive you, it’s a survival engine that’s trying to keep you alive. And that means most of Reality never makes it through the doors of perception. This is by design - or adaptation, to put it more precisely. A survival engine doesn’t show you everything - this would be overwhelming and largely useless to us. It shows you what’s relevant. Some of what’s relevant is programmed in from birth - like our attunement to faces and voices - but much of it depends on the particular life you’ve lived. Every Perception Is An Invisible Curation To appreciate how every moment of perception is a monumental act of curation, pause to consider what’s being filtered out at this very moment. Right now your nervous system is screening out the pressure of your clothes against your skin, the weight of your tongue in your mouth, the micro-adjustments keeping you balanced in your chair. You can test this principle right now by closing one eye, and noticing that your nose is in your visual field - yet your brain has been cropping it out your entire life without asking for your permission. What makes the cut isn’t arbitrary - it’s determined by what you need to navigate, manipulate, and respond to. Which means that what a world is can’t be separated from what an organism does. For human beings, certain features of our physiology are especially important for what shows up. These include highly expressive faces, a bipedal posture oriented along a front-back axis, dexterous hands, and forward-facing eyes. Which is why we can see two apples and a banana on a table and read that as a face, why we use ‘ahead’ and ‘behind’ to refer not just to physical space but also to time, and why a doorknob invites grasping before you’ve decided to reach for it. These aren’t quirks or accidents - they’re invitations issued by the world to a creature built just like you. Thus the boundaries of your world are determined - at least in part - by a body you didn’t choose. But bodies aren’t the whole story. Humans everywhere share the same basic equipment. No two brains are exactly the same, but they’re not so different that physiology alone can explain why we fragment into incompatible realities - no biological determinism here. We Bring Our Environments With Us To Every Encounter For the full picture, we’ll need to bring in the other half of this partnership - a mind’s environment - and what it contributes to a disclosed world: which is a hell of a lot. Social and material environments aren’t just spaces we travel through, they’re interwoven into the lived reality we bring with us to every encounter. This means that if you want to understand why your neighbor’s reality looks nothing like your own, you need to walk a mile in their shoes - and that phrase turns out to be more literal than it sounds. A shared body structure sets the stage for what types of worlds are permitted - no human knows what it’s like to be a bat and vice versa - but life experience decides what world you actually inhabit. And precisely because disclosed worlds don’t emerge from some pristine inner sanctum but from a lifetime of bodily encounters with particular environments, your neighbor can’t just decide to ‘see’ what you see. Just like someone can’t ‘turn off’ a trauma response or decide to unhear their native language, you bring your environment with you to every encounter. But ‘environment’ here means more than just a physical space: it’s the people you interact with, the media you consume, the food you eat, the sources of stress in your life. Same Room, Worlds Apart None of this is controversial. Geneticists have known for decades that genes turn on and off depending on environmental signals. Books like ‘The Body Keeps The Score’ have shown how trauma from our environment gets stored in our body and nervous system. Attachment theory has demonstrated that our relationship with our caregivers from an early age shapes how we experience intimacy, trust, and danger for our entire lives. What’s harder to accept is that our lived history with a set of environments doesn’t just colour our reality - it constitutes it. We’re not just interpreting the world differently - we’re often seeing and hearing different things entirely, even when we’re in the same room. A toddler isn’t just an adult with less knowledge - they’re living in a world without object permanence, where a blanket over a toy doesn’t conceal it but annihilates it. A traumatized war veteran isn’t experiencing fireworks, they’re living in a world where loud bangs are threats, not a cause for celebration. A reactionary isn’t submitting to a dictator, they’re embracing a stern father figure that’s promised to protect them from modernity. This isn’t as simple as ‘you see a pig and I see a lion.’ We’re both registering the same pig. But an activist sees an animal, while an industrialist sees a commodity. These aren’t post-hoc ‘interpretations’; they shape how that shared Reality shows up for us in the first place, before we can form an opinion about it. Thus, the body says what’s possible - the environment says what’s available. What does the environment offer? Invitations to act, tailored to your body and your history. Philosophers call these affordances - and they’re why we can live next door to one another while being worlds apart.

It’s like getting anally ducked by an Alien Wizard.

Hmm . . . 💭🤔 I don’t think that when most people talk about miracles, they are thinking about whether they are free, karmic, ethical, or long-term in nature. In traditional or layman’s terms, a miracle usually means a strange, sudden, and inexplicable event, especially one that would normally require a long time or enormous effort, or that appears impossible within the current understanding of reality. For example, if a patient needs eight years of intensive chemotherapy to recover from cancer, but instead goes to a mystical healer who snaps their fingers and the cancer disappears, most people would call that a miracle. Now, I agree that such a healer, or possibly their genetic bloodline, may have invested enormous effort over many years to develop that ability. In that sense, the act still has a consequential cause, even though the observer experiences it as sudden and inexplicable. Ultimately, this seems to come down to how you define the word “miracle.” If a miracle is defined as something with no causal explanation whatsoever, then in a universe governed by cause and consequence, miracles do not exist by definition. If a miracle is defined as something that has no explanation within our current observable or accepted framework, yet remains coherent within a still-unknown system of causes, then miracles do exist. And if a miracle is defined as complex systems gradually harmonizing over time to produce beauty, health, love, or support, then nearly everything in life could be considered a miracle, and many more will continue to emerge. Basically, whether something is called a miracle is highly dependent on the observer, and on that observer’s assumptions about what is normal, expected, or possible. The same is true for labels like abnormal, alien, or unfamiliar. Even the official Oxford definition points in this direction: “an extraordinary and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore attributed to a divine agency,” for example, “the miracle of rising from the grave.” The key phrase here is “not explicable by natural or scientific laws.” Whatever a culture or observer accepts as natural, scientific, common, or usual will determine whether an event is classified as a miracle at all. Change the assumed framework, and the miracle either disappears or becomes ordinary.

Introduction Last week I took 300ug of LSD, mostly with the intention to confront fears I encountered during previous trips. Those included: After serious ego loss and intense fear of death arising, fighting to have a purpose for my life, as if that was what would save me from death. The reasoning was, as silly as it sounds: “if I can’t come up with a reason for my existence right now, I will die”. A tribalistic paranoia, fear of being discovered by someone, fear of being closed in the room and someone else being in the apartment, fear that someone is behind me. Fear during the state where I don’t know anything, I literally don’t remember anything at all, what my name is, who I am, etc. Fear of reality “simplifying itself” to the point of death, fear of being motionless / falling asleep during the trip because I think I will die. Fundamentally, fear of death. To counter these, my focus was to: “Let Death into my heart”; Open the gates Accept being purposeless, that it is okay and I will not die Accept no identity and not remembering anything, that it is okay as well Relax and feel into being safe in God Confront other key fears listed above I simplified these points of focus, wrote them out on pieces of paper and laid them in front of me, so that I would come back to them throughout the trip. Moreover, since I always experience profound feelings of Self-definition during my trips, my intention was to focus on 3 key archetypes/energies which are important to me right now, once the identity was gone, to program myself: I am a Man. I achieve my Goals. I Act. I am an Artist. I express my Voice. I Create. I am a Sage. I nourish my Peace. I Meditate. I said goodbyes to my gf I live with, closed myself off in my room for 3 hours and went from there. Throughout the entire trip I wrote in my notebook. I mostly sat on the floor, surrounded by a few sheets of paper, and took everything in, while observing myself and responding to fears. Key Awakenings I don’t exist For the first time, I really awakened to the fact that I don’t exist. This was during the beginning of the trip. I was writing a stream of consciousness in the notebook and I asked the question: “Do I even exist?”. The question reached my awareness and suddenly I was completely dumbstruck. My jaw dropped. My initial reaction was like “Of course I exist!!!”. But I looked and there was no me. Mindfuck. After that, so much energy started emanating from me I thought everyone around me in the residential block was feeling it. It was incredible. Nothing I saw utter Nothingness. It was like I was in a completely empty Void. There was NOTHING satisfying about it for me. I was scared of the truth being negative in some way. In retrospect, I see that I wanted to discover SOMETHING. I wanted to discover some kind of divine love, inspiration, hope, reason. I wanted nothingness to be something good… but no. No love, no hope, NOTHING. It was exactly what it was. Nothingness. Devoid of any features. I saw it clearly, and it was humbling. I AM; SOMETHING is there And yet, in spite of seeing that I don’t exist, of not remembering anything about me and after seeing the Nothingness, I later felt that something was calling to me. It was as if it was hidden behind some veil, completely inaccessible to me. There was SOMETHING there, and it was ALIVE. I wrote in my notebook: I am SOMETHING. But what? This SOMETHING was instantaneous. I felt that I was it, but I was in no control of it. It was Same to me, and yet completely Other. It was writing things through me, without my conscious intent. For the first time, I felt MYSELF so clearly. I AM. Still, I don’t yet understand the dynamics of it. But I feel there is something amazing to be found there, and I’m excited about that. “Alien” vibration penetrating me Okay, so this is another thing that’s been difficult for me in previous trips, which I forgot about. Maybe I cut it out of my memory due to the great discomfort associated with it. Lately, each time I take LSD and lose my identity completely, I feel penetrated by some weird, “alien”, unifying vibration, by which I feel raped, used, taken advantage of. Feeling it, I feel like I’ve made some big mistake taking LSD. I feel possessed. At times, I feel something is taking control of me and I’m acting in weird, unpredictable manners, which is scaring me. During this trip, this happened when I was very high-level, and later on each time I focused on accepting the fear of dying and being no one. I felt this foreign vibration running through me. I felt discomfort, but I tried to persevere. I was set on confronting any fear and letting go of myself. Still, I felt taken advantage of. I don’t have good words to describe it, but that energy was weird, alien-like, sexual, foreign, flowing through me when I let go. If I had to describe it visually, I felt it as something white with 8 eyes, spanning through the entire visual field, inhuman, all-unifying, sexual, flowing. But I might as well be bullshitting myself, that’s not the point. The most important thing is: I don’t know yet what it is, and how to deal with this. I know I must separate my feelings about it from the actual thing, and it’s difficult because I feel great discomfort towards it. I’m wondering whether I can start approaching it differently and experience more positive feelings towards it. She is Other to me Close to the end of the trip, I contemplated what my girlfriend is. I was like: “Well, of course she is me. Right?”. And I tried “looking into her”. But to my surprise, she was completely inaccessible to me. She was Other to me. “Wait… how can she be Other to me, if we are the Same?!” It was a mindfuck to realize others are the Same and Other at the same time. I gained a new level of respect for my girlfriend, in particular. Later, I told her: “I respect you, because I can’t reach you with my mind. You are, and always will be, a Mystery to me. I see you differently now.” This can refer to Reality in general. What I said in the “I AM; SOMETHING is there” section: that SOMETHING was also completely Other to me, even though I was It. Maybe that SOMETHING is in everything I see, including my girlfriend. I think that theoretically, I could realize that I can’t reach anything I see with my mind, and that everything is a Mystery, not just my gf - but that’s beyond the scope of that trip. Miscellaneous I felt the above 5 sections were the most distinct, content-packed and worth sharing. Besides these, I experienced other things/awakenings/insights, such as: “Everything stems from the fact that I’m afraid of Death”. Feeling that I’m always running away from myself. I am this Dream which is leading itself Will/Intention being instantaneous and action in reality “lagging behind”, I was a bit impatient about it “Being the furthest away (from “life-content”), you can’t do anything but love.” “I want to be someone in this world. I want to express my Voice.” I felt like I’m not worthy, not “someone” enough. I want to fix something in myself all the time. Can’t I just love myself? At one point, I felt it was hard for me to stay in the body. I was walking around the room and felt so much energy accumulating in me, I thought I’d die. This single thing made me consider reducing dosing in the future. Looking at my hand felt overwhelming at one point, as if God was beaming its full energy at my face. I was looking away. Also, holding the fully stretched hand close to my face, I felt as if it was completely surrounding me. I was scared of it. Loss of consciousness was disappointing at one point. I was on such a high level. I felt cheated going “down”. I felt the “earthly” life was such an insignificant dream/illusion and it was for low-consciousness idiot beings. But this feeling passed quite quickly. At the end of the trip, I focused on manifesting what I want in life - among others, the 3 key archetypes I mentioned in the intro Focusing on the fact that I REALLY wanted the best for myself, that I wanted happiness in life, I wanted hope, inspiration, energy, I wanted to live and accomplish, that I wanted everything to be alright in the end. Key lessons & how to proceed Next time, I will strive to not want anything from NOTHING and to love it for what it is. Unsatisfying, unborn, raw, pure truth. I can see the fact that it's unsatisfying as actually the best thing about it. Shows me my bias perfectly. Focus on looking deeper into SOMETHING behind the veil. I feel there’s something important there for me to find. Perhaps, this is where I can genuinely discover God/Infinite Love for the first time. Seems plausible, given how this SOMETHING felt to me during this trip. I had God-realizations before, but it was more about me being God - never before did I discover God/Love/Intelligence which is „Alive” and Other to me. Understand my feelings of being taken advantage of by the „alien” vibration. Can I change my relation to it? Is it growth to accept this „foreign” energy penetrating me? Should I learn to be submissive, is that the way? What is this „alien” vibration? Goal: Learn to love and receive it. Experiment with being submissive and accepting something „foreign”. Fuck it, if it’s growth, I want it, I don’t care. Consider lowering my LSD dose to 225ug Consider trying a different psychedelic soon, probably DMT Outro Thanks for reading.
