It was so refreshing to listen to this. The more I tap into mindfulness, the more it feels like I'm tripping. Everything we're looking for is already here. Thank you both for sharing your wisdom!
Psychedelics are great, one time I was trippin on too much acid and I was staring at a fire pit and the fire pit turned into a mini world with little people and buildings, it was 2 years ago and it's such an experience to remember. would love to try out the psilocybin mushrooms next, just don't know where or how I can get my hands on them, so hard to come by
Most of my experiences with mushrooms and LSD was extremely good...a few bad trips, bad it was my fault...was not in the right 'mood' for it...As a result of taking them my lucid dreaming has intensified over time. Still get occasional flashbacks and don't regret taking them...
The good thing about LSD is its non addictive, the best experience I've EVER had on ANY drug was LSD, I've been so happy my face literally hurt from smiling so much for so many hours, but but once the trip wears off the last thing I'm thinking about is dropping another trip, you need time to recover, the closest I'd ever had trips together were a week apart but usually months or years, having said that it's been 10yrs since the last time but certainly would again given the right time and setting
Hiya Z, just subbed to your channel. Love your non-duality interviews and especially this one with John. I use the same app as you and found John the same way. You have a super fun personality and after listening to you and Angelo as well as John, all I can say is I love ya man, thank you for the top shelf content, the laughs, insights and for pointing out and having guests pointing out, that a conceptual mind will never "get this" non-duality because mind lives as duality, a conceptual subject seeking a conceptual object. Jean Klein and Nisargadatta both have pointed out that in order to realize this, to actualize, is to come to the end of the mind (concepts) either through a crisis (like getting sick af of seeking and giving up out of frustration and discovering what is left is impersonal), frustration or possibly intuitively, to give up seeking with all of it's concepts, attachments and personal baggage and rest in "not knowing", absent of a "me" reference point in an impersonal state. Either we are in the world or the world is in us, like 2 sides of a coin. One is personal, the other impersonal. I feel like this particular interview really nailed the difference between being identified as a separate self or as the impersonal, in reality obviously no one identifies as impersonal because there is no personal in impersonal except in the spelling. 😆 Thanks for the fun!
Like how Rupert Spira describes “now” vs “present moment”. Now is eternal (ever present) but it appears to the conceptual mind to be a moment ( between a past and a future that don’t really exist)
I was meditating once, laying on my bed, and I felt like I could move my hands beneath me but knew there was a bed there. I had some awe. And then a crystal I was meditating with stuck to the cinder block wall (I was in a college dorm room) and didn’t come off for months.
excellent video. the example of turning off the sound while watch a sporting event is a good example, i did this while watching the video (and then went back to listen haha). in regards to paintings, i had a significant opening many years ago while doing a Thich Nhat Hanh meditation that dealt with paintings (i believe it was something dealing with the lotus sutra). i suddenly had this explosive realization that it's all just paint, somewhat akin to what some current teachers are noting that there's just one thing going on. looking at paintings by Jackson Pollock provides a unique experience as there are seemingly no objects to discern, it's all just paint. and in experiencing the world around me, i realize i don't have to know what kind of bird is singing to enjoy its song....
Living in the moment is a cool learning. I can imagine most 'norm' can't fathom unless they are open to reincarnation This hologram is a moment in the miraculous! I did psychedelics 45 years ago a few times and never have needed or used it since although I chose to keep the connection with magic. Thank you ZDogg and John.
Big Dogg you kinda describe a seizure at 42:20- There's a Jane Goodall story she tells about being with the chimpanzees when suddenly, she feels like she "tuned into the same frequency" as them. She describes it as emotionally profound while listing all the changes in her perception of sound, light and surroundings: To me this sounds 100% exactly like my auras before my right temporal lobe epilepsy begins. When the seizure begins I get an inescapable sense of the electricity around me. Other somatosensory functions change too, like lights seem softer & brighter, most sounds dim, I get a feeling like I'm shrinking. I also get a bit nonverbal. This is immediately followed by deep emotional sense of connection to my surroundings. It's even caused religious emotions in me since I can remember, despite my grandads both teaching me to apply scientific skepticism to theology. I felt compelled toward spirituality by the TLE activity anyway and feel that was great for me. As I understand now, this type of seizure activity has been reproduced using an external mechanism called the "god helmet" (lol) and infamous havana syndrome is also just artifically induced abnormal brain activity or seizures. And there's an information gap around the question of this tech which is usually indicative of military secrecy. All I'm saying is maybe you had some kinda seizure in Denver airport??? Don't rule it out and maybe go for a screening if it happens again? I've read that TLE and havana both get under/misdiagnosed.
MIRACLE HAPPEN NOWS A DAY EVEN AT THIS MOMENT EVERYWHERE , ANYWHERE , ANYTIME 😉😊... IF PEOPLE BELIEVE IN MIRACLE THEY ONLY BELIEVE THERE IS OLD SAYING..... " SEE 👀 IS TO BELIEVE THE REALITY THRU THIER EXPERIENCE HAPPENED ON THEM "
around 25 mins, so PapaJi told a story about the 'point/no point' at which the out-breath ends and the in -breath begins....there it lies, or not, as the case may be...Doug Vogt interprets multi-dimensional reality as 'occurring' in that same 'place/point' or not...
What really struck me: We are telling Reality what it is. Let Reality tell us what it is!
We mistake the map for the terrain.
The medium is the message.
It was so refreshing to listen to this. The more I tap into mindfulness, the more it feels like I'm tripping. Everything we're looking for is already here. Thank you both for sharing your wisdom!
This was so powerful 🔥🔥The pointers were so on point, it took me to the direct experience of this unfiltered reality 😊 More episodes like this💯

I experience the two realities while playing music, then becoming the music.

Such a great way of explaining the unexplainable!

Good videos. I am living in a community for the last 50 plus years where much of this was talked about. Seeing yourself as you are helps.
What a nice dude this Joe guy, follow him.
Great conversation
thank you! that's all I can say right now.
thanks guys, great talk.

These guys are high on SOMETHING. But it's just THIS. 😂🤯🎆
awesome interview, especially the tv - noticing the commentator :D just great
A self-aware disturbance in the field.
A nice example of mindfulness without the embodiment. Looking forward to when that comes back into the picture.
I love this.
i had so much to say but i forgot 😂😂❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏 in a good way!
what a beautiful sharing!!!
I like the app. Good old Rogue Sam will pull together all manner of interesting folk, so if something isn't vibing with ye, there's plenty more.

My dumb brain cannot conceptualize this abstract way of thinking and now I'm pissed

After 51 minutes you two are giving me a headache!!!😤
🙁 I hope you are feeling better today
Word 🥗 salad. The interviewer is doing a better job than than this guy. This is old news.
Please do not mention Sam Harris. It is not a good association.
He's not fuckin' beetlejuice, mate 🤣
I disagree. Sam Harris is one of the few authors/speakers on awakening who keeps religion or the supernatural out of it; just the way I like it.
John Astin makes content for his app, maybe he's not the devil your Facebook friends think he is
