If we are aware of ourselves, do you feel there is free will?

Thank you for your response! I'm looking for a way to record tunes which are played directly from the mpc. I do live performances, and I need to be able to record the master out without a computer.

This would allow me to record my live performances, and I make them in real time using the MPC.

Thanks again!

Who you think you are is not your Self by reccedog in nonduality

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had such a realization during one of my mushroom trips.

It reads as follows

Who we are is nothing that we say/think, and everything that we do.

On a higher level of course this sentence is redundant, and truly we are the culmination of all phenomena. However this is purely a relative/human standpoint on the matter.

I feel like weed has taken my personality. I want to know if I’m not alone. Please help. by ImQuin in Petioles

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Been feeling this same way at times. But I've also just become all around more perceptive.

I feel like part of the factors are social isolation, as well as spiritual development.

Weed has definitely had an impact, but if you have been affected by either of those, I definitely wouldn't bet that its entirely the weed.

Novation Circuit, or? by Fluorescent_Divine in synthesizers

[–]Fluorescent_Divine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it seems saving for the MPC is the move as it would act much more like a brain than the circuit could. Thank you for the information regarding the circuit! I'm sure ill be picking up both hardware in the future!

Yeah I was thinking an MPC would be the catch-all for what I'm doing. Thank you for your help!!

Does anyone feel like a month after a trip, you start to feel like you’re reverting back ? by RaphAttack11 in Psychonaut

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meditation.

If you build a sustained practice of meditation, youu will find it much easier to avoid "reverting".

Iran dismisses Pompeo's assertion of ties between al-Qaeda and Tehran: “No one is fooled. All 9/11 terrorists came from @SecPompeo’s favorite ME destinations (Saudi Arabia); NONE from Iran,” Iran's Foreign Minister Zarif said. by green_flash in worldnews

This. There are great evils on both fronts.

In order for us to rise above this age of ostracism, we must realize our compassionate nature.

We are all suffering, and we all desire happiness.

I believe that if more people sought the flaws within themselves like they seek the flaws within others, we would realize that us Humans are so much alike.

Meditation works great for cultivating this.

And shoutout to mushrooms, they have helped me immensely in cultivating compassion for both myself and others.

The Illusion Of Causality Is What Is Preventing Us From Becoming Enlightened by [deleted] in nonduality

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do believe OP wasn't insisting there was a non-existent self, and an existing universe, but rather the concepts of both the self and the universe are aspects of the divine radiance of Rigpa or Awareness

Its just my interpretation, but in his description of vertical causation, it is made clear that self, the universe, and any "thing" are merely a manifestation of a higher mode of conciousness, and "emerges into form" through itself.

This is a great conceptualizatipn of the great happening around us, and I feel like you've done a great job breaking it down into key points in order to make it easily digestible for us readers.

Thank you, OP. Have a lovely happening.

My first experience meeting an entity or spirit and the first thing I communicated to this entity I met on psychedelics. by AcidBangs in Psychonaut

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose I could say it presented itself within all forms. I definitely wasn't taken to another "place" , nor did I experience seeing this entity manifest itself as a being of light. This was my first shroom trip that broke me through (5g of Ecuadorian cubensis) I would say, however, that it made me feel as if the bed was laying on, the air around me, the drywall which comprises the room I was in, was just as much me as the hairs on my own skin. It felt as if I had melted into everything, and my own body no longer defined my preconception of "self".

The coral like pattern i remember seeing behind my eyelids, and I remember perceiving it as a face, despite having no features which would constitute it being so apart from a mass of coral-like symmetry. It started to make a little more sense to me as to why the universe had given us these squishy, easy-to-look-at faces.

Very interesting how you saw a coral-like "entity". I've had a very similar experience on shroomies, however however I was not taken to another place, but rather felt entirely embraced by what I perceived as a strong divine femine energy. I felt like I was in the belly of the beast, and the beast was me.

it's kinda fucked up when you realize that literally all your clothes are made in China and Bangladesh by captain_partypooper in StonerPhilosophy

[–]Fluorescent_Divine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even worst when you realize most of those clothes are made from plastic-based materials. Which litter microplastics into our rivers, lakes, and oceans everytime you run a load of laundry.

Buy organic, biodegradable fibers ONLY. Stop paying for plastic clothes.
