"DMT is orders of magnitude different in its effect from opium. I wouldn't even compare the two. The only way I could imagine drilling a hole working out in that way is that if DMT is released, after all it is part of the NDE."

Jimmy replied to Shawn Close's discussion 'What would be required to prove the existence of a "god"?'Jimmy replied to Shawn Close's discussion 'What would be required to prove the existence of a "god"?'"Pretty serious. I mean, just read about people who've messed with DMT or have taken very high amounts of entheogens. Hell, try it for yourself."
Jimmy replied to Shawn Close's discussion 'What would be required to prove the existence of a "god"?'"I think first before proving anything God must be defined as in the case of "ignosticism." It's also been said by those who've had religious or mystical experience that there is no longer no doubt, no ignorance, etc. of the…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"@Gallup When Josh Westhoelter mentioned Bohm's "Quantum Mind" as hypothesis I had no quarrel, because it is, in fact, speculatory. When you asked for "evidence" for "Quantum Mind," I was under the impression that…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Well, it depends on what you mean by "setting" here. In other words, yes, the "shamanic dose" is required, but a precaution that is often taken is what Timothy Leary called "set and setting" as these things can lead to…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"I never said that Bohm's "Quantum Mind" is proven. What I was trying to get at here is that there may be more to consciousness than what we find on the surface. It's you who was under the impression that I was proposing these…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Well, you're confusing my example as my own concept of this hypothesis, and it's not. This is not my concept, what I'm referring to in the example is David Bohm's "Quantum mind" hypothesis. I only gave the example so…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"The mind is very tricky, it may be tricking you in 11 dimensions you didn't know exist."
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'""The only thing I know for sure is that things will be different."
Most people's notion of the afterlife are so mundane and anthropomorphized. Some people say DMT is a glimpse into the afterlife, and if that's true, according to…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Well, I've already answered this question by giving the example of the tree and also quoting from Steven Pinker. I'm not sure if you read, but if you're interested, it's on page 10.
How it relates to the full-blown psychedelic…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Okay, you want to be clear? You do understand the concept of intuition, don't you?
Well, this experience is a kind of "intuitive omniscience" in the sense of it being completely derived from purely intuition. It's not…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"The example I gave doesn't discount these instances of brain injuries. So, I'm not sure what you aimed to prove with your response. I said that these things may be intertwined, not that it's solely that consciousness resides elsewhere…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Okay, there you go again with the use of "we," in "we have an extensive understanding of consciousness and how it develops." This is untrue. If you were to look up "consciousness" in any psychology book or…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Pope Paul, I've never read anything relative to Chopra in my life. Pinker, on the other hand, is a person that I've read extensively upon. So, maybe you can enlighten me with your interpretation. Why do you believe it's closer to…"
Jimmy replied to Dalton Jones's discussion 'Afterlife'"Actually, it's just a rip off from one of George Carlin's comedy albums. Can't you be more original?"
