Sanlav posted:There's plenty of dmt saved up for the big blast off in your skull. They just need to hook that scanner up to me at a phish show. As far as I'm aware this isn't proven in any way. I've not read any conclusive proof that there is enough DMT produced or present in the human body to cause near-death experiences. Happy to be wrong about this though.

Marzzle posted:the secret of GATE programs is that school districts don't have enough money to give everyone a decent education so they pick the cream of the crop for extra funding and more capable teachers because you don't want to squander your middle class geniuses who can't afford private schooling. i dunno ours was held in a disused bathroom closet and after i graduated they shut it down in favor of football funding

The prosaic explanation probably would be something like the combination of the G&T program and having an uncomfortable awareness of your own mortality leads people to naturally become curious about what's Out There at the boundaries of our physical and temporal existences, thus the crossover to becoming interested in this topic.

I'm curious as to what MBTI types people are here, to be honest. Perhaps it's an inquisitive personality with being receptive to what isn't concrete and established. Was it Riot Bimbo (miss you Riot Bimbo, hope you're doing all right) who is an INFJ? Are we all just intuitive feelers who are picking up on things others are unable to grasp? I score as INFP-T.

Was it Riot Bimbo (miss you Riot Bimbo, hope you're doing all right) who is an INFJ? Are we all just intuitive feelers who are picking up on things others are unable to grasp? Most consistently I get INFP-T as well but I usually wind up near the middle in the last two and will occasionally oscillate to INTP and even more rarely these days, INTJ (I remember I used to be strong INTJ in high school and must have swapped at some point in the last ten years) This test says I prefer to be INFP though so I think that helps solidify it for me as a choice I'm making to be that sort of person rather than the purely rational one I was growing up https://similarminds.com/cgi-bin/mbpref.pl

I think many, most, possibly all humans (and other conscious, social beings?) have a connection to the greater consciousness of the universe (the Source, God, etc) as part of our base model. In Egyptian philosophy a human person has a number of individually recognized components -- ka, ba, name, shadow, etc -- but the one I think about a lot was called "sekhem" which today we translate as "power" or "form" but don't seem to know much about wrt its perceived purpose or function. I have occasionally seen it translated as "divine image." I find that one interesting as I personally understand a person's sekhem as being the part of them that is being accessed when that person attempts to exert supernatural/spiritual/charismatic influence. Magicians were sometimes referred to as having a powerful or effective sekhem. But like any specialized organ or muscle, lack of use leads to atrophy. I think most people these days don't spend time developing their connection to the All until or unless they have some sort of experience (or series of experiences) that prompts for them a journey of self-discovery and development -- whatever that experience may be and however that journey then reveals itself. The biggest thing that we all have in common here is that we are journeying.

LITERALLY A BIRD posted:I think many, most, possibly all humans (and other conscious, social beings?) have a connection to the greater consciousness of the universe (the Source, God, etc) as part of our base model. Sorry to only focus on this first bit, but I think it's important to mention every time I can, that we have never separated from the oceanic/universal/source consciousness because there isn't anything separate from it in the first place. There is obviously clear differences in the level of realization within a single mind, or even just the ability to recognize one's own ordinary aware consciousness, but the fact stands that no form of life whatsoever seems to lack awareness. It's kind of the prerequisite for life, to be self-organizing systems of energy. To be self-organized requires some sort of self-recognizing something in order to self-organize, and the term we have for that self-recognizing-or-knowing something is consciousness. That all being said, please do not mistake consciousness-as-is for mind or minds. A mind, from my perspective, is a seemingly dissociated and separated (only seemingly, mind you) point of localization within the Source consciousness. That localized point of awareness, which is really only the original Source consciousness, offers the Source the opportunity to act and witness said acts within itself like we do in our own dreams. There is no true evolution of consciousness, or separation from consciousness, only varying degrees of recognition of one's true nature within the frameworks of the seemingly separated minds that we use.
