    Consider: if you were to receive a message like you just sent, would it be likely to have changed your mind? Especially if you weren’t you now, but like the you from let’s say ten years in the past? It’s just a thought, I hope you find it interesting.

      Just chiming in.

      It would not. Because as long as your brain is brainwashed and full of shit, nothing is going to change. Specially something that goes against your “own believes” !

      You need to fully “reset” your state of mind, either through DEEP meditation, some psychedelics or whatever does the trick to clean up the wired mess your brain is continuously exposed to (pollution, processed food, animals being held in concentration camps, hate, TV, right & left, …).

      It’s the question of “red” or “blue” pill during your life time. That will either break your mental construction/barrier and give you a glimps of what those shadows are in plato’s cave allegory or just stay a captive of your own mind/knowledge of the shadows you’re looking at.

        Those who seek, find.

        Those who ask questions, eventually find answers.

        Shrooms may be a shortcut, but the important thing is being RECEPTIVE to what they offer, I would wager.

        My two cents anyway:-D.
