    Indian govt employee declares himself reincarnation of Vishnu, skips work to go to '5th dimension'

    Religion laugh-at-your-mind

    This dude (see article) sounds like he obviously did not have right view. A lot of people like to poo-poo the idea of right view, but let's be clear on what happens when we do that. This is what happens. Insanity. Buddha(s) found the right view and gave it to us. Now each of us has the job to verify it for ourselves to rid ourselves of insanity.

    Btw, although Buddha did not seem to teach us to "laugh at our mind" -- I have found this to be particularly helpful for me anyway, and probably for most people who maybe are not as serious about enlightenment as Buddha or his monks. In other words, lay people with families that they love passionately. Yes, Buddha, the family will go away and it is all just suffering, but let's forget that for a bit so we can enjoy and help each other slowly get to the goal of no self (this is more like Mahayana philosophy). 

    Anyways,  I think maybe the funniest quote I ever heard might be:
    "If you don't sin, then Jesus died for nothing."

    Please. Do not take that to mean you should sin. I am so sad that there are people that will take it that way. It's a joke. 

    "One joke I always liked was about the dyslexic, agnostic, insomniac who stayed up all night wondering if there was a Dog."

    I started at 26

    But I know that many people these days start younger with all kinds of drugs. I never even used alcohol or weed until 26 because I was afraid it might "change me." I was chronically depressed because the world was full of suffering (tho my family was more optimistic). A family friend, a retired psychiatrist, told me I should try Valium. I laughed at that since even if Valium were indicated for depression, I was consciously choosing to be depressed because I didn't want to be happy while the world was in pain. Looking back, altho my reasoning was a bit silly, I feel I made the right choice to simply cry out my feelings each night until I could figure out something better.

    Research shows that developing brains (especially those under age 25) are more likely to become addicted to substances, more likely to be potentially unstable (mental illness often begins showing in early 20's), and more likely to be enchanted by experiences rather than seeking insight.

    I personally do not wish to sell legal entheogens to anyone that I know to be under age 21 or living with parents or guardians who would disapprove. But I cannot control what people do nor determine who is telling me the truth about their age etc. I would simply ask you to please consider, for your own sake and that of others, that as a young person, you would very likely gain much more benefit from a disciplined practice of meditation and insight than with entheogen use. Unlike with substance use, the younger you begin to meditate, the better it is for your brain and your chances of awakening in this lifetime. 

    The only time I would suggest someone consume an entheogen is if they have already done years of meditation without much benefit and they need an extra boost. In that case I would recommend using low doses of ayahuasca (less than 1g of acacia) to massively boost meditation power (similar to lucid dream meditation). Once insight into no-self dawns, the extra boost will likely not be needed anymore.



    PsychedelicTimes has an article on the subject. Here's one relevant highlight:

    Understanding Potential Risks
    Recognizing the benefits of offering teens use of therapeutic psychedelics does not negate the research showing psychedelics may affect the developing brain differently than the mature brain. Studies have shown that adolescent rats exposed to THC have suffered greater residual cognitive deficits than adult rats. Similarly, some cognitive deficits have been found in adolescent MDMA users but not in adult users. These studies show the importance of fully understanding the potential dangers of adolescent psychedelic use before making it available in a therapeutic setting. Adolescents may need to use lower doses, be restricted to certain psychedelics, or have fewer active therapy sessions in order to mitigate these risks. Alternatively, upon further research, it may be found that psychedelic therapy should be delayed until late adolescence or full maturity is achieved by a patient.

    Goal of u-dont-exist.com

    goal-of-this-site
    I tell people this frequently but I want to make sure everyone knows why I am selling ethnobotanicals (instead of just offering some useful info on awakening).

    My primary goal is to have no repeat customers. I know that is idealistic, but I feel that if the information I provide and the meditation aids along with it are taken seriously, folks should not need to return for more things. One of the best ways to use these medicines is with a highly skilled multidimensional therapist who can help you empty out your emotional basement. 

    People often tell me that they will be long-term customers. This is strange... please, do not have that goal of being a long-term customer of mine. Meditate. Let go of identity. The cyclic desire for healing and transcendence is not something to be content with. 

    If you haven't already, please read my pamphlet explaining Nibbana (Everything is Already Perfect). If you gain any insights during meditation you'd feel comfortable sharing, please post them in the comments here.

    If you share any of these medicines with others, I hope that this message and this prayer for no repeat customers is also being passed on in that process.

    My other primary goal is to help protect indigenous human cultures from being poisoned and corrupted by the transhumanist technocracy, while at the same time helping them spread their wisdom to anyone willing to come and meet with them in brotherhood. Check out the GoFundMe for Friends of the Pygmies in Cameroon.
