Leigh Brasington & Andrés Gómez Emilsson discuss jhāna, consciousness correlates, neural feedback mechanisms, non-duality, psychic powers, lucid dreaming, and strange attractors in a mind-bending exploration of the mind and altered states.
DMT and 5MEO DMT induce distinct coherence patterns and unify consciousness through different attractor states.
Non-duality plays a crucial role in altering consciousness by erasing boundaries and fostering unity in psychedelic experiences.
Balancing conceptualization with non-duality is essential for holistic processing of experiences and navigating varying states of mind.
Deep dives
Exploring Different States of Consciousness through Psychedelics
Psychedelic experiences vary in their characteristics, from the complex and colorful ecosystem of entities and patterns induced by DMT to the unifying and boundary-dissolving effects of 5MEO DMT. DMT creates competing clusters of coherence, leading to a perception of distinct entities and patterns, whereas 5MEO DMT induces global coherence, removing internal boundaries and merging the self with the universe in a state of oneness.
Non-Duality in Psychedelic Experiences
The contrast between DMT and 5MEO DMT highlights the significance of non-duality in altering consciousness. In DMT experiences, the attractor state involves competing clusters of coherence with distinct boundaries, while 5MEO DMT induces a state of global coherence, erasing boundaries and unifying perception. These insights underscore the role of coherence in shaping psychedelic experiences and the profound impact of non-duality on consciousness.
Exploring Boundaries and Consciousness in Psychedelic Research
The concept of attractor states in psychedelic experiences elucidates the role of coherence and boundaries in shaping consciousness. DMT-induced clusters of coherence result in distinct entities and patterns, emphasizing internal boundaries. In contrast, 5MEO DMT generates global coherence, dissolving boundaries and fostering a sense of unity between the self and the external world.
Perception and Boundaries in Psychedelic States
Psychedelic substances like DMT and 5MEO DMT provide unique insights into perception and consciousness. While DMT induces complex vibrational patterns with distinct boundaries and entities, 5MEO DMT promotes a state of unity and interconnectedness through global coherence. This distinction underscores the role of coherence and boundaries in shaping psychedelic experiences and altering states of consciousness.
Understanding Non-Duality and Synchronization of Internal Representations
Non-duality involves the synchronization of internal representations and the dissolution of hard boundaries. Living in a non-dual space allows for coherence and a holistic processing of experiences. While some advocate for completely non-conceptual states, the speaker discusses a state of mind that balances conceptualization with non-duality, emphasizing the importance of understanding and navigating both perspectives.
Exploring Gradations of Non-Duality and Functional States
The podcast delves into varying degrees of non-duality and the functionality of different states of mind. It highlights the interplay between non-dual and dual perspectives, emphasizing the need for boundaries in certain contexts for tasks like love and compassion. The discussion extends to psychic powers post-fourth Jhana, linking lucid dreaming practices to meditation experiences and exploring the boundary between dual and non-dual perspectives.
Wherein Leigh and Andrés discuss jhāna, potential correlates for consciousness, electromagnetic neural feedback mechanisms facilitating altered states, insight, the non-duality of duality and non-duality, and and much more. Enjoy!
