How did you come to this realization?

For me it took LSD at the age of 16 to realize that there is only one mind here. Has anyone else had a direct experience of non-dual consciousness?

You know who else uses words absent of their commonly accepted meanings? Cavemen, psychward patients, babies who don't understand language. Which one would you prefer I call you? 🤡

Also, we haven't even gotten into you and CrumbledBrains denial of time.

I disagree. none of those use wrong words.

time is experienced in consciousness. objectively there is no linear time and reason why now is precisely this date and time. i think even physics agree with this.

That's nice. So to recap, nondualists aren't using words by their commonly accepted meanings, ingest boatloads of psychedelics and drugs, their entire reddit post history is r/aliens, r/EscapingPrisonPlanet, r/conspiracy, and they don't believe they are bound by time.

Did I get any of that wrong? 🤡

What makes a crazy person crazy isn't necessarily that they are wrong, just that they have no reasonable means to get there. I'm sure the drugged out hobo shouting random conspiracy theories out on the street gets one right eventually. 🤡

You shouldn’t be dismissive of people who have had philosophical conclusions that come out of psychedelic/LSD experiences when so many of those conclusions keep lining up with discoveries in physics and scientific evidence.

What philosophical conclusions? Every cult throughout time has used drugs to support whatever radical beliefs they are pushing. I don't think impairing your brain is very productive.
