    I’m a paying subscriber to Waking Up for a couple years.
    I absolutely am OK paying the subscription fee knowing that others can access without paying.
    People I’ve shared what I’ve learned about mindfulness as a meditation practice a good deal from Sam, told me that sounds like what they were learning from Stoic philosophy.
    These two are having a great conversation about the relationship between those two philosophies.

    Enlightenment is the embodiment of your conscience. Your conscience is the voice that invites you to be your most courageous, most authentic, most excellent self. It’s also known as ecstasis, the flow state or the zone. It is experienced when your conscience flows through every decision and action with zero latency in the system, and without regard to ego or self-doubt. Enlightenment is often fleeting. The more time you can spend in that zone, the more meaningful the experience of your life. It requires focus. Meditation is a key practice for maximizing focus and enlightenment.

    I gotta say, i thought i knew what spiritual teachers were talking about before i had an ego death on psychedelics but after that, i realized i had no concept of what the fuck they were talking about. I wouldn’t have leaped that gap without it. Its the difference between conceptual spirituality and experiential spirituality

    There are multiple facets of “the work.” There’s mining the insights through psychedelic practices, understanding the insights through reflective practices, and there’s embodying the insights through mindfulness. It is useful to remember that it’s not a single phased process.

    • @flowstateofmind82
      @flowstateofmind82 3 дні тому

      Ok, so as to understand what you mean by mining.. would be the insights, ahaa moments - where you have almost like an epiphany, or to have deep conversations with others while in an altered state of mind?

    • @chrisrubio8212
      @chrisrubio8212 2 дні тому +1

      @@flowstateofmind82 yes. More desirable results require more effective behaviors. More effective behaviors require deeper levels of understanding. Deeper levels of understanding require the insights and experiences that shift your perspective.
      Psychedelic experiences, meditation, fasting, intense exercise, problem solving all lead to insights or epiphanies. Then we need to process the epiphanies to find the deeper level of understanding. That understanding can then become action, the embodiment of the new understanding.

    It feels like Ryan never misses an opportunity to cast aspersions at the IDW crew and to invite his guest to do the same. Is that embodiment of wisdom, justice, courage, or temperance?

      There is a thought that arises… if you have not personally experienced you may have an opinion but it is from a position of ignorance to some elements that will broaden the spectrum of knowledge with which to have a more substantive discusion.

    Could it be that western cultures co-opted any benefit of spirituality in the name of political power (including organized religion) , because meditation, which is a completely self-relied mechanism of improvement and enlightenment would've been seen as a threat to them?

    I have not taken Psychadelics yet (other than mdma which is an empathogen, and quite different to lsd and psilocybin I am told), but I would not pour such scorn on them as Ryan did, without trying them myself, and even then one has to recognise everyones experience might be different. Some people I know who have tripped reported enormous shifts in perspective. Others said it was merely quite unpleasant.

    People are always talking about meditation and psychedelic experience as though they were the same thing or produced roughly the same outcomes. They are entirely two very different things. And anyone , even a life-long meditator,
    who has never had a boundary-dissolving psychedelic experience (and there are several kinds) should not presume to talk about it as though it were akin to the boundary-dissolving experience(s) that deep meditation can produce.

    Someone who hasn't done psychedelics playing them down and thinking that they know what it's like to do psychedelics is hard to listen to. Language really fails to describe the experience imo. They're not for everyone and should be done respectfully but guessing what it's like really doesn't get you anywhere near there

    Dear Jesus I pray for Sam Harris that he will come to experience you because he is missing out on knowing you and being known completely by You. I pray that you will humble him through circumstances and events to such a point that like the King in the bible that he ends up eating grass and going mad if that’s is what is needed for him to know You Lord. Jesus you died for his soul and are the lover of his soul so I pray you do whatever it takes for his salvation. I pray that Sam will be blessed in Jesus name Amen.
