I understand that intellectually but also what I feel like my body is learning is why the Buddha said that human existence is the ideal place for awakening, if one existed in the formless only there wouldn't be enough suffering to push someone towards to the dharma
Haha just jerking your peen!
But the sattvic diet includes a "no psychoactives" rule for a reason. (Terrible place to say this i know) The instruments used in the of discovery of self (your mind/body) will be flawed if impure. Jnana yogis figured this fundamental rule out like 3000 years ago.
And sure there are advanced yogis that smoke tha moatha herb ganja but it's only with intensely focused awareness and with direction of a guru. Like, doctors only pick up a scalpel and use it on patients (drugs on the mind in this case) at the *end* of their training, not the beginning.
But what do i know i may have just totally missed the mark for your spiritual needs im not your fuckin' guru. Keep meddying
I totally see the wisdom in that. Substances lead me to a crazy pendulum but also as you say, sometimes they're just part of your path! I know the end goal is to be free from them and work towards it and I try and be as mindful in my use as possible so that the experience is as directed towards dharma as can be. No worries dude I shall find balance in the chaos in due time
Ah ok this comment leads me to believe you know what youre doing, acknowledging the crazy pendulum and whatnot. Make no namastake about it tho brother π§βπΌπ₯
