A can of coke?

[largejack]

I have been thinking a lot about consciousness and of awakening lately, and how frustrating this matrix reality is. I feel like the contents inside a can of coke being shaken up more and more vigorously but I just can't open the lid.

Does anyone else get this feeling?

Psychedelics could help pop the lid imo They can really show you the cosmos then at other times show you whats important down here in this reality.

I never use psychedelics but after my first properly successful meditation that I've just mentioned on another thread, I hope I might not need to as the experience was quite psychedelic enough. :)

How do you know if youve never used them? :confused: Or you dont use them?

Psychedelics is maybe cheating as newengineer said but today you could ingest whatever entheogen and by next week your coke lid could be well and truly blew off, personally I dont have the patience for meditation when psychedelics can bring you so much so quickly and I cant imagine meditation having the exact smae effects that a good healthy ego death dose of psychedelics would bring. Actually that just reminded me, how could you possibly have an ego death experience if its voluntary, usually with the psychs they take over and you have no choice, deal with it, you couldnt get to that traumatic state with meditation, obviously!

I mean your asking the question how the fuck do I transcend my conciousness out of this matrix/illusion, whatever, and how annoyed you are with it and you say na I dont take psychedelics, I mean thats the bloody answer mate, not to attack you but cmon what do you really want, folks to hold your hand and spraff about meditation for (insert years here), that wont bring ego death in a few hours mins whatever, wont bring it at all actually. Dont be scared, it will bring you fast results, I dont get the impression that you have mental health issues, I dunno but if you do, dont obviously, but if your posting saying im annoyed with the state of eh my conciousness and how I want to, know, see, blow the lid off, whatever, if you really wanted to blow the lid off and take a hit for humanity, conciousness, yourself then go ingest a heroic dose of mushys/aya/dmt so it shocks you, then you could work with the food of the gods christ, one high end dose would stay with you forever and could also change you forever! good luck! :D

Indeed. At times the more we realize of Truth the more difficult it can be to get past our own egoic insecurities as the ego struggles to survive. Our own(the egos) resistance to change becomes the point of growth or decay.

Note: By ego I'm refering more to the set Wants, tendencies and positionalities held within the mind, not the fictional entity some believe to exist as an actuality.

Yes. I'm pretty tired most of the time because of it. I even have lucid dreams where I try to fly as high as possible, but something like a membrane is in my way and I try to break through it. Last time I dreamed that, I actually managed to damage the membrane. It's like trying for a newborn to break through an egg.
I wonder what will happen if I succeed.
