’Hardcore psychedelics and existential loneliness stuff’’, just like isolation, emotional suppression, suicidal ideation, etc, etc, are not at all common on the path. Most paths by far are an unearthing of the natural euphoria of our being, existential connectedness, emotional expression and life affirming thoughts, behaviors & actions. Not suggesting it’s easy, but I’d at least consider the ‘hardcore psychedelics and existential loneliness stuff’ is still the very narrative you mentioned. The ‘stuff’ to be emptied of. That’s it’s ‘learned’ & assumed to be true, because it’s intended to be convincing & delivered convincingly, yet is conceptual ‘stuff’ to be emptied out, not stuff ‘somewhere down your path’ or something.
I couldn’t agree more btw, you’re more innocent than you could possibly think. Absolutely. No deception whatsoever. Self-deception is a very immature & egocentric self-conceptualization.
Can't wait till I'm an awakened being and no longer innocent like you😇

If the truth is that happiness is an illusion generated by chemicals, neurons, morons, and primates, all of which have been created by blind uncaring forces, in a universe with no inherent meaning and no objective morality, then the choices are either to embrace the illusion and fashion some kind of life centered around a fantasy, or reject the illusion as false, and wait patiently for death. I suppose the less patient can kill themselves if they want.
Bahahahahahaha
You're funny as fuck dude😂😂☠️☠️

There is ultimate, lasting peace & happiness which never comes or goes. It isn’t found outwardly, even via forgiveness and acceptance of humanity, any more than it is or was found in objective experience such as relationships, substances or states. It is only found as absolute clarity, as pristine unfettered eternal consciousness.
Only the inward oriented approach is feasible. By that I mean the thorough, complete and absolute direct inspection of the very mind of which thoughts about a world, humanity, forgiveness, harm, hurt, fear, and murder arise. The ultimate, as in basic, original & most fundamental self-knowledge is the holy grail, the answer to the most profound questions such as why is there evil and what is the truth of the reality of the universe. The instant a seeker finds this self-knowledge, it is found to never have existed at all.
Only from this self-knowledge can there be peace, actual common sense and true forgiveness on earth, as there will no longer arise any need for peace, common sense or forgiveness on earth. It will be all too clear experience is inherently for giving, in, of, as & for only the essence of it’s source.
To realize you could never be harmed, hurt or killed is to simultaneously realize you have never actually been harmed, hurt or killed. Paradoxically, no one has ever survived this self-knowledge and lived to tell about it. And even if one did, there would be nothing, and no one, to tell.
No one obtains, achieves, holds, see’s or even realizes ultimate self-knowledge. It comes in through the dark, out through your heart, and laughs. It moves along intangibly as an unspeakable message, like wind through an empty forest no one will ever see.
But it is. Do not doubt that it is.
You know, Leo's narratives on how neo-advaita is incomplete or wrong or whatever has really shaded my thinking on these topics and the way I read your posts. Perhaps I need to back to the roots. All these isms and unconscious adopting of his "higher" or "more advanced" ideas has casted a sort of superiority complex in me with regards to spirituality. I'm recently finding that these are sneaky games my mind is playing from years of regurgitating the ideas of others who I deem as more knowledgeable. Basically, I find that your posts indeed have deep merits and foundational pieces that I previously couldn't recognizing because of the conditioning described.
Think I need to go back to basics. The hardcore psychedelics and the existential loneliness stuff can come later. My cup is too full. Need to empty it. Maybe I am more innocent than I thought. It's just all too deceptive really.

“Intellectuals” 🤨… 🧐 😮 😠 😡 😤
Funny/interesting how people like Ramana Maharshi understand reality more than any PhD academic from MIT or Caltech.
I used to praise intellectuals from elite institutions so much. Now it's clear how clueless they are...
They get so lost in the content of things (subatomic interactions, computation, information, etc.). They don't really go into the heart of the matter:
Why existence?
Why anything?
Why something?
Why perspective?
Why awareness/consciousness/knowingness?
It's like, HELLO! Why do you even exist??
They think they're smart, making progress, headed towards some grand finale understanding. "Just a couple thousand more scientific papers and we'll finally reach it!"
It all goes full circle I suppose. Counterintuitive.

I'm not even sure what I'm doing with my life anymore.
Believe me, I’m with you. I’m currently doing a degree in neuroscience and I have absolutely no more desire in it anymore. My fantasies and ideas of what this career would be like is far from how it really is.
At this point, I’m forcing myself to graduate just so I can say I have a degree and don’t seem like a complete failure and loser to family and friends.
I think the solution is to really cut through your ego’s bullshit and take radical action. Why don’t you join me? Take a break from this forum and the other forum. Remodel your routine slowly, step by step. Maybe wake up earlier, spend less time browsing online, exercise more, etc.
It doesn’t have to be a heroic leap where you cut off everything and try to change your entire life. But it means really being honest and and seeing through your ego’s elaborate ways of keeping you locked in your dysfunctional cycles.
Consider referring to SOURCE materials. This means going learning DIRECTLY from actual credentialed teachers rather than reading countless vague sentences/paragraphs from stranger forum users who’s level of experience/expertise is unclear.
And then taking ACTION from those source teachings. There is no secret here. Deep inside, you know why you struggle and your patterns repeat themselves and you receive little to no results.
Also, contemplate how fucking awesome it’ll be to FINALLY get your survival and financial affairs situated such that you can finally access deep states of consciousness and comprehend higher teachings without petty anxieties getting in the way.
You gotta take total ownership of your thoughts and actions. I’m personally a work in progress but I have a vision for myself and I’m at a place where I see through a lot of my own bullshit. I mean, this is really the only way. What’s the alternative? The alternative is being stuck and mentally masturbating your way through life as hours, days, months fly by with no results. Just my two cents. Take care

Lol, I’m 26 too and I understand where you’re coming from.
fortunately for me though, I don’t share nearly the same degree of fearfulness over this topic as you. I think you gotta reframe your attitude on this and keep your attention/focus away from the bogus terrible consequences your mind thinks will happen with age.
Think about how awesome it’ll be to be in your 30’s and to have a stable source of financial income such that you’re no longer overly concerned with petty survivor affairs.
Think about how much more wise, detached, and mature you’ll be in the following decades and how life will be more at ease than the current neurotic ways you live now.
Look forward to communing with similar-aged people with similar levels of wisdom and how you’ll all laugh at your previous struggles and all the petty fears you had that seem ridiculous to you now.
Also, on a side note, I can’t help but mention that I see you frequently posting on both forums; rehashing your problems over and over and asking the same types of questions…
Not to derail this post but I kindly ask: are you taking action on the theory you KNOW you have?
For example, are you approaching women/socializing more like Leo comprehensively detailed in his laid series?
Are you daily meditating and focusing on the root of your addictions such as the cigarette problem you stressed several times?
Are you spending more time focusing on career, life plans, rewiring your mind, etc. than time spent dicking around in forums and receiving vague spiritual responses that are unhelpful and you probably already predicted?
Don’t mean to get personal or anything, I just see some of your behaviors in me so I couldn’t help but talk to ‘myself’.

Science (generally speaking) is the study & investigation of reality upon the assumption reality isn’t me, or, is a separate thing. Not all scientists, etc, etc. Just generally.
Loa is more & more acute awareness of the vibration that I am putting out, and noticing as you said, the correlation between (so to speak) inner & outer world, or, that indeed you are creating your reality. That is an absolutely literal statement, and is not meant as a philosophy or ‘way of thinking’. Fundamentally, it’s putting how you feel first in the recognition (which dawns upon one more & more as one does so) that feeling is ‘source’, is being, and is being all ‘things’ & experiences which are desired.
‘Pseudoscience’ in regard to loa is a holding on to science, and more intimately, to a false importance of thoughts / ‘being right’. Loa is a letting go of an importance of thought in terms of facts or‘being right’, and recognizing the significance of thoughts as to how thoughts feel, and putting feeling, which can not be measured scientifically in any way, first.
I can’t teach you per se, but I can make suggestions and you can check out what’s suggested in direct experience for validity. Not trying to be semantical, but it’s kind of an important distinction. I’m not a teacher. I’m in the same boat you’re in. God-Love is the only teacher. Also, therein, inseparable, Life is the only teacher.
Loa & attracting woman wise, first, empty your cup. Let the whole category and any thoughts about it go completely. You don’t want to start from -3, you want to start from 0, from a clean slate. Most ideal would be a few days have passed and there hasn’t been a thought about women. It’s likely that in that intention, you’ll realize you’ll either suffer, wrestling with the thoughts that do come up, not letting them go… or you’ll take a curious interest in perception & sensation Now. This brings clairty to thoughts which are about a separate self, which is always and only in a past or future, and never present ‘in’ ‘the’ Now.
Any thoughts that come up which feel discordant about the category - don’t entertain them and continue to feed them attention via believing something is wrong and needs to be solved, fixed, figured out, etc, just notice them, acknowledge them, and because and only because they are discordant, willingly let them go. Bring a more aligned thought to mind. That could be a thought about you, or about anything, or an aligned thought about how you indeed are already attracting the woman you desire to attract.
Don’t hold any expectations that this is going to ‘work’, instead enjoy the ‘work’ itself. It needs to reward, prize or outcome… enjoy the great feeling of playing the game if you will, of bringing more & more aligned thoughts to mind. Then you are feeling better & better, and it that feeling which attracts.
Expression, such as with using an expression journal is very key, because the universe so to speak doesn’t hear what you think, nor what you believe, nor what you say - it hears what you actually mean. Expressive journaling is a great and easy way to clear out what you think & say, uncovering what you really mean. Don’t think about doing or not doing expressive journaling. Just allow it. Notice thought about it ‘get in the way’, and ‘get out of your own way’, by just allowing it. Let thought about ‘doing’ be rightfully seen as ‘taking credit’, and allow those thoughts to come and go. The one who takes credit is not the one who attracts, that’s the ‘one’ who gets in the way, and that ‘one’ is only thoughts.
Write what you want on your dreamboard, and be transparent & honest about it. Write what you really mean. If all you really want is sex, write sex. If what you really want is a relationship, write relationship. After writing what you sincerely want on your dream board, if any thoughts arise that would categorically be the doubting that you can have what you are wanting, let those thoughts go and bring the opposite thoughts to mind. Actually imagine the already having of what you are wanting, fantasize about it, feel how great it feels that you have what you want.
If that is emotionally challenging, don’t go to thinking that is a problem or that there is anything wrong, go to the scale, to doubt or whichever emotion it seems like you are experiencing, and simply express that you are experiencing that emotion, and express anything which arises therein, and then do the same for each emotion all the way up the rest of the scale. Don’t skip over any, and don’t stop until you ‘get to the top’.
Anytime a thought pops up about a specific about what you want, write that specific on the dreamboard right underneath where you wrote what you want. That might be ‘blonde’ or ‘brunette’, funny, adventurous, etc… anything… just - what you want.
To be honest, I've come to the conclusion that this fluffy spiritual LOA shit is just pure wishful thinking for weak lazy people who are in denial about reality. I mean all this nonsense has caused me more suffering than any kind of liberation or happiness because of the load of false hope, fantasies, and idealizations that things are "just gonna happen".
At this point, I think I'll just return to the default model of life and reality. You know: things are completely out of my control, life is a brute force process that requires immense will and hard work, survival is brutal and real, some people have it better than others, etc. etc. At least I'll save myself the suffering of feeling absolutely dumb, defeated, lied to, and humiliated when months and years go by and I can't manifest simple fucking shit like a fucking tennis ball or receiving a text message from someone I know.
I've been at it for at least 3 years now with very little results. Absolutely nothing I imagined to be true in my mind has come to pass in my reality. At the most, I experienced events and circumstances that appear to be related to my desire, but never the actual thing. FUCK this stupid immature fucking horseshit denialist ideology. I give up.

In large part depression arises of apparently being born into a world where no separate selves exist, and yet there is mass competition as if there were, including competition to provide substances which mute the symptoms of the belief in separate selves so the competition can continue without inspection of the root of the discord in the first place.
How do you suggest one addresses the ‘root discord’ and permanently — or at least significantly in the long term — heal one’s depression/anxiety?

The theory of serotonin or other biochemical imbalances being the cause of depression has been hugely shattered by a new “umbrella” study from UCL.
Apparently there’s no empirical link between specific biochemical levels in one’s brain and depression. The problem is far more complex than a single neurotransmitter’s concentrations being responsible for it.
We blindly worship SSRI’s on the basis of authority. The lit review also included a double-blind placebo study that showed how the effects of SSRI’s are largely placebos.
There’s much to say about this. What are the implications regarding pharmaceutical capitalism, mental health, the psychology of individual and collective authority, the brain, the nature of emotions, science, medicine, etc.?

Oh, Mandy! Oh, Mandy Mandy Mandy! I so wanna pinch your cheeks right now.
What is this about? Are you not reading what I'm writing? I did examine the judgement and said that it is possible that I am wrong, crazy, deluded, etc. What else do you want me to do? Nod along in silence? Become a doormat for Phil's perspective and everything you guys say? What possible outcome that might satisfy your expectations?
It is obvious that I did no re-contextualization of anything. Phil asked a question, and I answered it directly.
Is it possible that X might be true? Yes it is possible. No questions or doubts. See, very simple and direct.
Now, where does that leave us? Well, either we accept X as true, or deny it as false, or remain neutral about it. I guess there aren't that many choices after all.
Now, should I just take X for granted as true like Phil and you are suggesting? Or should I deny X entirely? Or should I remain (or at least try to) neutral about it? I chose the latter, then was accused of changing the context, when all I did was "going meta" like you guys like to call it.
You see, for you to suggest to me to examine judgement, there is the assumption that you somehow hold a more expanded perspective on the matter. But is this true? That's what I examined and found not to be the case. And it's the most neutral thing to do/say from my pov. You can disagree with me, you're free. I didn't offer much of an explanation, so that would be understandable. But to keep suggesting that I'm not looking is just disrespectful, and really one more indicator that supports my conclusions that you guys aren't ahead. It seems to me, at least.
All I did in my response was that I said: I acknowledge that I might be having wrong judgement as you suggested. But after examining my judgements, I don't think I do, and here are my thoughts. If you have a problem with them, feel free to disagree. I hold no expectations from you regarding my thoughts. And I have no attachment to them either. I am happy to change my thoughts whenever I'm convinced they're false. Simple, is it not?
I want to add that you guys seem stuck with this whole "no judgement is true/allowed" narrative, which is nothing but a judgement judging other judgements if that makes sense. So I don't see why this one particular judgement should weigh more than any other judgement. If you can convince me why, then please go ahead. I'm all ears. Otherwise, I'll be sorry to inform you that you might be holding a dogma and failing to see it. You're a beautiful woman, Mandy. Maybe should look in the mirror more often.
Where is this coming from? Who are you talking about? Surely, I'm not involved.
I have no reputation to uphold, nor anything of the sorts. I am not an enlightenment teacher or anything. I don't even talk about spirituality that much anymore. And I said explicitly that my thoughts are useless and shall be dismissed asap if you don't like them or find them offensive in any way.
With all due love, just wanna say thank you for reminding me to log the fuck off of forums in general and stop wasting a sinful amount of time dicking around with pointless arguments with strangers and shit, LOL.

I make the occasional electronic bleep and bloop, and for me the key to unlocking creativity was to go with a DAWless approach. I did the DAW thing, and just ended up getting bogged down in the technology, feeling like I was stagnant rooted in one place... it just wasn't for me.
So I got myself an OP-Z and some other stuff that I could easily carry around and now I can do it anywhere. I even took my OP-Z down to the Amazon jungle last year and sat making music on the banks of the river. To me that freedom is priceless.
I fully appreciate that these simple setups have their limitations, and that especially if your end goal is recording then some kind of DAW is going to become necessary, but I just wanted to offer a different perspective.I can relate to your sentiment regarding dealing with software technicalities versus physically playing an instruments. For me though, I plan to record music.

@Unknown I don't use Logic, but have used Cubase, Pro Tools, Ableton, Reason and now use Reaper. There are a ton of amazing videos out there on Youtube that will teach you everything you need to know.
If you're into hip/hop I might suggest investing in a subscription to something like Splice or Loopmasters where you can get all your samples from. They have a lot of hip/hop material on there that provide a great starting block for any track.
There are a lot of free VST's out there. Just Google "free vst's" and you'll find page after page of them. They're obviously not as good as their paid counterparts, but they're good for beginners. Logic comes with some quite good built in processers as well. A friend of mine uses Logic and the analogue compressors and EQ's sound great. I think they're recreations of Pultec and Fairchild units.
If you start getting serious about production then some VST's to check out would be Omnisphere by Spectrasonics, Sylenth1, Nexus2 and Serium. They're all perfect for the genre you're looking at working with as well as all EDM genres. Arturia and Korg do some incredible emulations of the classic synths and drum machines available on subscription, as does Roland. You can get hold of VST versions of the classics like the 909, 808 and 303's plus Juno and Jupiter synths from the Roland subscription service.
I'm like a kid in a candy store with analogue gear and emulations and there is a risk that you can have too many VST's and lose yourself in them, which I've learned. In my experience the best thing to do is find some processors, EQ's, reverb units and delays that you like, plus a small handful of synths and then just learn how to use them really well. They're so complex and so detailed that something like the Moog Modular emulation from Arturia could probably provide you with 80% of the sounds you could ever want!
My personal favourite effects are the Slate Digital analogue emulations. They're so close to the originals that it's impossible to tell the difference. They have recreations of the Fairchild and Pultec units, plus the LA-2A. They're comparable in my opinion to the ones by Universal Audio. They have a brilliant effect unit called Murda Melodies which is the dogs nuts! (video below) I love it and use it on everything from vocals to drums.
Make sure you post some of your work on here for us to listen to. Happy to give constructive feedback! 😍
Amazing advice! Thanks for sharing these resources.
Yes, I heard of those VSTs you mentioned. For now I guess I’ll be sticking to stock stuff and work my way to Omnisphere and other VSTs.
I’ll be referring back to your post often. Can’t wait to make a first legit track.
Curious: if you don’t mind sharing, what genre music do you produce and is music your career?

@Unknown I have some experience using Ableton (making club music, techno, trance). I I started by only occasionally using the program for around 2 years, just making loops and stopping at that, but still had the intent to one day go at it more wholeheartedly. Around 1 year ago i made that decision, and ever since i have increasingly been using more time on it, producing more or less everyday for a few hours (with some days off if i lose motivation). It has been a quite a struggle at times learning the program, going through a lot of negative emotions at times, but i can really say that that part is mostly over, and now producing is the thing i look the most forward to (and i'm seeing some great results). Now it's more a question of creativity instead of learning how use the program. There will most likely be a phase in the beginning where you will be struggling learning the program as well, and it might take a while. Dont give up, just push through, and you will get your satisfaction later. I will write some tips of what has helped me the most so far;
1) Listening to music in a new way! This is so important. I have listened to electronic music my whole life and i thought i knew what was going on in the tracks, but its only recently that i started to pay attention to the seperate elements that make up the song. Start listening to hip hop with more focus, and try to figure out what the producer did to make it sound like that. After a while you will start to pay notice to a lot of elements you didn't hear in the beginning, which you will then be able to do yourself.
2) Make full tracks, and not only a loop, even if it sounds terrible (and it will). It's really the fastest way get good at it. Just do it even when you don't know what you are doing. You are learning all the time. Push yourself, thats when you grow. Try to listen and write down the structure of some good hip hop tracks that you know, so that you can make pointers as to at what time the break/chorus etc should come. Thats a good exercise to learn a little bit about the genre.
3) Don't compare yourself to other, and cherish the small steps you take. I easily get sad if i start comparing myself to other people, but i also see from where i have been that ill get there:-) and so will you, if you want it.
4) I found a guy who makes the kind of music i like in my area, and had lessons learning the program. That was really great, and something i will def recommend. There are tons of great youtube material as well, of course.
5) Be curious about the program, try out things yourself. A lot of the time you learn it better that way, and you might make some good connections yourself instead of just copying someone from youtube (It can be super useful of course). The good thing about doing things your own way is that you wont sound like everyone else, and you'll slowly start creating your unique signature sound instead of the same youtube tutorial that everyone went to. Take for example each effect one at a time (delay, reverb etc) and give a try to see what sound comes out, to get an idea yourself.
6) About the plugins, don't use a lot of money in the beginning. Buy maybe one or two, and stop there (do some research and find out which ones, depending on genre). It's a lot more useful learning the program, learning the effects and how to manipulate the sound yourself, instead of some premade plugin. You can get that later once you have an idea. It's a trap for a lot of people to continuously buy new plugins but never get anywhere.
7) Take a few days off if you lose motivation. Especially after you know the program a bit more. That goes up and down usually. A good break usually pays off.
Thats all i can think of right now, hope you can use some of it.
Thanks a lot, this is solid. I will be taking heed to your tips and experience.
You mentioned that you spent up to 3 hours a day working on the DAW. That’s quite a commitment and I’m glad to hear you ended up getting past the phase of learning the technicalities such that your mental templates translate to the software. That’s a good place to be and I really hope to be there. I’m curious though, what motivated you to make such a commitment to music production? Was it pure passion? Was it a part-time/full-time business?
Also, did you know music theory or have any musical experience before starting production?
-
Apparently Pink Floyd is back

Personally I eagerly await for a comprehensive LOA/conscious creating vid explaining the process, dream-board, common mishaps, what have you.

Consciousness is the solution to the problem of existence.

I’m very interested in starting music production. I have a small background in music but I don’t know music theory. I plan to use a DAW (Logic Pro X in particular) for making hip hop tracks. I was wondering if anyone has experience with Logic Pro or whatever DAW and could share any general advice, good courses (for both music theory and Logic Pro), quality resources for sound plug-ins and kits, etc. This would be greatly appreciated.
Ofc I’m doing my own research on all this but insights from the experienced are highly valued. Thanks!
