Power of Integrity, MDMA trip

[AION]

Yesterday I did a MDMA trip and I had some profound insights on integrity (with the truth). Basically life is about if you are in integrity with the truth or not. Nobody is in integrity 10/10 times since only God is in integrity 10/10 times.

For example in social situations you can't always be in integrity with the truth. Humans have to strike a sweet balance between integrity and survival as a razor's edge. It is all about determining which areas of life integrity is utmost importance and focus on that. We can't become integral in one sweep. Making priorities of the important areas where integrity is important and working from there is key.

This is what I determined. Areas were high integrity is necessary:

• Your health, if you are not in integrity with truth your body will say fuck you. You have to respect the rules of health. The body and mind is connected thus if you have bad health, it means you are not in alignment with the truth of the principles of health. Health is the highest priority to gain integrity because without a body, you don't have temple to prey in. This is why Zen Body Being by Ralston is so pivotal than anything else imo.
• Another area where it is crucial to be in integrity with the truth is the existence of God. If you deny this you are missing a fundamental part of the fabric of reality. If the the center of the body is the heart, integrity (with the truth) is part of the psyche. If you delude yourself too much from the truth, your psyche will fall apart and this will also reflect on your body.

Another insight is that integrity and authenticity are the same thing. A fragmented person can't be authentic. We have all seen them, it almost looks like an uncanny valley. But if you reached this integrity you have won back your "soul" that a lot of people lose when becoming adult and which children are born with. Too much hard drugs, dims the soul while being in total integrity with your body/mind is energizing. It is really true what Ralston says. The body and mind are one. For me the most important insight was that I have to respect the body as much as the mind because they are one. Too much overthinking is abusive the body. That is why great thinkers always get sick. After a deep think we need to give our instrument rest for it to recover and maintain its health.

I know some don't agree with this but I will say it again: health = truth. Health and truth are the same thing in my opinion. Because a healthy person is in integrity with the principles of the truth of health. An unhealthy on the other hand is not in integrity with the principles of the truth of health.

You will be in for a rude awakening should you ever lose your health.

Truth will not save you when your health fails. If only it were so easy.

To what? Seriously interested.

Awakenings happen all the time, some smoother others not so. But that's no news.

If you wanna keep me on edge don't answer

Having been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and on his deathbed, Ramana was basically 'whatever.' He even refused treatment - for the cancer, not death.

I get OCD-like symptoms if I don't mention the guy every three posts or so.

Just an anecdote.

The body is very mechanical. It is like a car. Some have better cars than others. Some abuse their cars with substances it is not made for. But that doesn’t mean there are certain principles how to deal with the car. The principles are the truth. But the thing is that if you have abused your body so much you can’t just fix the parts like you could with a car. At least not for now because of the technological limitations. 
 

Another thing I discovered. Taking care of your health, taking good food and supplements, does boost your health but at the same time it boosts your mind. I basically 10x my mind through health hacks that I shared on this forum. 

 

Mind over matter doesn’t mean matter doesn’t exist. Matter exist as much as mind. When you eat a piece of food for example you basically eat a piece of mind.

Just so you know MDMA is not really healthy. It know to be neurotoxin and can deplete your serotonin levels. This results in low baseline serotonin signaling, leading to low mood, anxiety, fatigue, and irritability for a few days.

This is why i hesitate to ever do MDMA in life. MDMA seems to be more physically dangerous then any other psychedelic, depending on dose ofc.

More to say

@Peo I think every psychedelic have its downside. I never take a full pill of MDMA. That doesn’t feel healthy. My preferred those is 1/4th of a pill or even less.
