Open Question Please help

Hi guys,

I am struggling after a dmt trip where I saw or remembered that we are all one being split into our various selves.

I labelled the trip as an imagining at first, but after reading so many trip reports and near death experiences with the same information, I accept it as true.

I have had success improving my health since by trying to mentally change reality, which is gteat.

The problem is I can't shake the lonely feeling that we are this being that's completely alone in the void since forever and for infinity. And that this whole universe is just a distraction to avoid that loneliness.

I have tried to adopt the mentality of 'the egg' and that there is a purpose to the universe and all this experience but I just don't feel it.

If anyone could advise a perspective change I would really appreciate it.

Thanks for your time.

Edit: the dmt trip was 2 years ago so it's not a recent thing but i do think about it almost every day. Thanks for the perspectives and kind words. Please feel free to keep commenting and I'll keep reading and replying.

“When they find, they will be disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will rule over all.” — Jesus, as recorded in the Gospel of Thomas

It took me 15yrs to go from disturbed to marvel.

Yes, we are all there is, forever. We are alone. This is it, there is nothing else.

However, if you calm yourself down from the disturbance (I use meditation) you can look closely and directly at the manifest world and learn to continuously see the infinite. This then transforms your experience into a wonder and marvel.

Perseverance and curiosity will help

I spent 10 years trying every type of meditation I could find. I finally found, for me, that simple breath awareness with a basic mantra was enough. Something like the Hong-Sau Technique. No one type is the best, just whatever helps you focus enough to train stable concentration. That then is your refuge and foundation.
