First post, one thought

4 posts in this topic

I have had few awakenings since I started with psychedelics few years ago.. 

But today I understood with more clarity how hate doesnt make any sense as I would be hating part of me that is still sleeping

Stupid that I forgot about it somehow, it's so obvious once consciousness level is raised a bit

That's true since all you see on 'others' is projection of your own mind. Either love it or hate it it's all your own mind.

this can be also true on psychological level, where often the intentions of other people we perceive are our own projections, but just to clarify here I meant that on more fundamental level, there are no "others", so hate dissolves naturally

From another angle, buddhist practice of metta is also helpful but it's more about renunciation and letting go of one's attachment to anger

Yes, the idea of 'others' are formed in the mind when the forms and names are perceived and thus separation of one's self and others are concluded in the mind. Unless one transcends this duality true love towards others are not possible.
