    When I was doing shrooms a few months ago, I remember seeing something like an interstellar highway that you can connect to and that will give you “right answers” that you are seeking for in the moment (I think this was what some of you call the Guidance)

     

    In my trip I had a thought that to connect to that highway you need to be able to relax, there was a certain state that you had to be in, it felt like a state of easiness, emptiness in the chest..

     

    Can someone please tell me if this makes sense? How do you reach that state? It seems that breathing can do it.. is it breathing? Wouldn’t it be insane that something we do on the regular anyways has so many solutions? 

     

    It makes sense. Shrooms are amazing, body feels so amazing on shrooms... however... you can feel the same just by meditating daily... I felt body in similar way at the end of 10-days Vipassana retreat.

    It's not a state, it's just you focusing not on thinking but on yourself... basically source of thinking and breathing... it's strange but by focusing on anything rather than on thinking... like on breathing... and relaxing into it .. you can feel yourself truly. 

    It is your Guidance... you are guiding yourself... by focusing on different thoughts... choose better feeling thought... let go what doesn't feel good... pretty much the whole game. Namaste.

    Stop it with your neo-advaita platitudes! I am so above you in god-realization that I don't need to talk to you anymore!

    as above so below 🙂 

    You can't help anyone until you help yourself first... in neo-advaita platitudes it'd be: "there is nothing but you" or as

  3. @Tarak what if you don't need anything and everything all right with you now? Just start from that place of wholeness, then you can just explore meditation, substances, etc, from the place of exploring/enjoyment rather than neediness. It's all good with you now, don't believe in thinking narrative that something is wrong, you can loose something - nothing to lose, it's all good now, deep breath, relax, love yourself.  

  4. @Tarak feels like there is a preference for blaming yourself. That's example of focusing on what doesn't feel good, try opposite - focusing on what feels good. If there is a belief that cannabis "solves" "your" "problems", maybe try something else: 5-MeO-DMT for example.... it may open the eyes that the only substance here is love/you, so nothing can help you but you.

    How to change my state of consciousness permanently?

     

    I don't want to have the same thoughts every day I want to end the way I live life.

     

    How to be free from ego control?

    How to master my ego?

     

    By letting go that there is state of consciousness, that there is permanence.  The only permanence is impermanence that is permanence (a.k.a. eternal).
    Who is "I" that don't want? Just focus on thinking that feels good rather than not.

    but who believes in thinking?

     

    i'm not being picky,  i just can't grasp it still, what's the difference between being conscious of thoughts vs unconscious

    Noone, or you, everything believes in thinking, thinking is also noone, or you, everything 😁 quite confusing.

     

    Start small. Let say you are angry on someone: there is a choice - react or let anger go by switching attention from thinking to something else (e.g. deep breathing), by relaxing. That's exactly the difference between being conscious of thoughts or unconscious. See it as a skill that can be build via daily meditation, psychedelics, etc - skill of letting thinking go, skill of seeing that there is a gap between you and thinking, you are not just thinking.

    So, once skill is built go and test it in real life situations, go to someone that annoy you and show how you love them 🫶

    I'm going to be trying out Reiki soon (pretty fkn excited!), was just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to get the most out of it? 

     

    Or anything about Reiki that you want to write about.

    🙏

    It's like with everything - do not expect any outcome, just relax,  observe, enjoy.

     

    Whether to research on topic or not is up to you. I started to research (read books, taking online courses) after I did a Reiki session afaik.

    Mind has tremendous power to pull your attention to thoughts.

     

    Does it ever end? Do thoughts become less addictive at times? How?

    There is no mind that pull attention to thinking, there is just believing in thinking. See thinking as birds singing, the task is stop listening to birds (do not react) that don't feel good, just let them go, pass by.

  9. You are the meditation, so there is only meditation, so can't self realise without it. 😂

     

    But yeah, meditation practice is only needed for realisation that you don't need it, just notice during the day that you are awareness and not just thinking... but also it's very helpful to have both: morning 1 hour spiritual routine and do the work of noticing by undoing during the day.

    @Orbi also would really like to have a better understanding on how to focus. My idea is that you have to put your mind in the things you want to focus on for an extended period. 
     

    @Philmy idea of equanimity is when i let go of trying or defending. What would you say that equanimity is? 
     

    @Dimawhen you say wonder about is - do you mean like being mindfulness? Things are passing by and you are the observer. If this is it then i agree with you - it is very underestimated. 

    Exactly, about observing observer 🙂 sorry for the late reply
