Hello,
I wish to understand something about Buddhism. We know that Buddhism is not willing to cater to the 'hard questions' because it considers them to fuel the chain of nibbana.
Throughout buddhist concepts, we find that Buddhahood is above Brahmahood, and that gods are trapped in "Being" as well as us, but on a different level.
Nirvana - or the True Enlightenment is actually the point of achieving "nothing".
Can Buddhism be considered as negating consciousness?
>>18507993
No, nirvana is oceanic concepts beyond the conditioning of duality. It is nothing relative from our viewpoint because it is beyond the categories of the phenomenal and not a negation.
>>18507993
That's exactly what it is. It's an attempt to escape human negativity and fault.
Not a big fan of it. After 30 years of weird dreams and nightmares I've got a basic idea how nothing could look like. Let's say I know 1% of 1% of what a theologist knows. The Nothing is the most horrifying thing that is possible to experience.
I'd say that the nothing of Buddhism is more like a rejoining with the Tao, the One.
It is 100% incomprehensible from our current point of view, so it might as well be described as "nothing" in the sense that it has nothing similar to the existence we live, or to existence in general, since it exists outside of it.
Spirit box experiences thread. I just used one and towards the end it started going crazy it told me to meet so I kept asking where do you want to meet and then the EMF started going crazy like I've never seen
This was the last message I got before the EMF went completely dead and I stopped getting responses
>>18507965
I just got "Teen" and then "me".
I'm at work and it's probably not the best place to get stuff
>>18508038
Those bars that are green in my screencap were literally all at the top and red and it was beeping like crazy after it said that I was kind of in shock and then the bars went down and as soon as I took a screencap it completely died.

Today, i was listening to a high frequency signal transmitted in spanish. I live in an area with lots of spanish speaking workers so my spic speak is fairly adequate. Part of the broadcast said this:
"Set code to 'S1'... 10 13 1 3 26 13 2 23 12 26 17 22 19 7 23 3 26 23 4 9 20 2 17 22 13"
Can anyone help me decode this?
It means
"fuck trump we aint gonna build no wall"
when translated to english
>>18507986
At least try to get the amount of charecters correct
>>18507954
Shortwave fag here; it's a number station used for transmitting encoded data cheaply. If I had to guess it could be from Cuba if you're in the US. Cuba transmits them and you can hear them sometime. If they used a one time pad it won't be able to be decoded.
Hey /x/. I've seen you guys figure out codes and such and I'd like some help with this one. I was sent to me over a year ago and I've never been able to figure it out. I've tried as many online decyphering programs as I could but to no avail. Maybe someone here could help me out?

>/x/ experienced a happening today and mods are 404ing the threads.
Evening /x/. I've come to ask for some advice. since roughly three hours ago there have been two shadow entities in the spare bedroom of my flat. roughly seven foot tall, comprised of swirling darkness and what looks like a hooked beak.
The typical events have happened such as the dog growling but not going in the room, drop in temperature, my partner and I have heard scuttling noises (like you would imagine a crab would make walking on a wooden floor).The two candles I had in the hallway have also gone out. This is not the first time we have had spirits in the house but it certainly is the longest time they've hung around.
The room that they are in is used by my partner as a "man cave" but he also practices chaos magic at times with some tarot on the side. I, myself have had strange occurrences all my life and I believe I have some kind of sixth sense but I do my best to block it since my preteens as I had a couple of bad experiences.
Could anyone shed any light on what these are? Any advice at all? Like anything?
Picture not exactly related but I thought it looked cool.
>>18507813
It's past your med time. Bitch.
Strip down naked, cover yourself in holy water and then challenge the ghosts to 9 rounds of bare knuckle boxing.
>>18507826
bare!? My hands are too delicate for that.
So /X/ I have a proposal for you. Some of you may have been around back in 2011 for the veelox experiment. If you were not i strongly encourage you to look it up. Essentially, 100's of anons all astral projected and manifested an island on the astral plane called veelox.Unfortunately, it would not be a good idea to go there now as it has been neglected and abandoned and a whole manner of bad shit could happen. Instead i say that we do the same thing as veelox but instead we shall create an island called Arcturus which is a cold tundra in the northern regions, a gentle rainforest in the south, a desert in the west and a midwest type thing in the east. Anyways, project there as much as you can for the next 5 weeks and write down your experience
/x/ or /x], but never /X/
>>18507748
Experiment? Nigga please. The only thing this 'experiment' proved was that astral projecton is bullshit.
>>18507879
I honestly dont know why you people browse /x/. WOW, THANKS? BULLSHIT? THANK YOU FOR TELLING US, NONE OF US HEARD THAT ONE BEFORE!
Hello, i know people always ask about lucid dreams and best way to have them.
I know there are a lot of thing that you can find on the internet, but i'd like to know advices from the people who knows how to have them easily.
Is there a special method you personally use? Anything that will help someone who would like to have them, not saying every night but, pretty often?
I know i should learn to go to bed earlier, i know about the reality checks, i know about the techniques such as WTB, i know how meditation could help, but like i said i'd like to know some more special methods.
I'm also starting to getting interested with astral projection and i've also bought a book about it, but i'm really a newbie on this and if you can share your advices about it as well, i'd very happy.
OBE...
wow.
way to thing backwards, poor anon.
I use IBE's.
THINK FUTURE>
THINK INSIDE>
I have been inside myself, as though my urethra were large enough for ten humans to walk side-by-side through.
Scale is appropriated according to your whim.
Use your noggin'...explore your mind(and body).
>>18507652
IBE ?
Never heard of it, can't find it on google. Is it like astral projection to the future?
Oh I invented it...
long story short I had to dig some shit out of my urethra. My subconscious did the explorations...for me?
>I hate invasive surgeries, but recognize their usefulness...Dreaming about it is better IMO
lol
annnnyways...long story short I now can dream about the internal functions of my physical body.
On the downside I always brush and floss now.
What do you guys think about John Lang's murder?
This video is for those of you that have not heard the story

I wish there would be an investigation for this murder, and the police department would and those involved would be accountable for it.

Canadian here - this is the first i've heard of this.
bretty interesting! Bump for you.
Why hasn't this individual received a high quality horror movie based on his life? There are only low budget shitty ones out there.
They made a high profile movie inspired by fucking Ed Gein who was nothing but a graverobbing faggot, so why not invest in Dahmer's story?
>>18507524
Because nobody wants to watch some autist faggot bumble around cutting up and eating bodies for an hour and thirty minutes. We need a decent story with a captivating plot.
>>18507590
I'd like to see that senpai.
>>18507593
you can always watch the b-movies about him, it's all you ever got
Does anyone on here have any experience with tulpas? I recently started looking into it and it looks to me like it's just a bad RP game. Can anyone with experience explain what it's like?
bump for interest
>>18507498
what is a tulpa exactly
>>18507498
This is what I think to, but I'm trying to start making one.
I've been looking into it for a few months casually, but having a friend would be cool.
I found this video on a school computer. It was your standard deep web shock video, featuring a tall figure with long arms, barely in frame, a small figure with no arms running around close to the woods, then a few shots of a house and hallways. On one of these shots, a bunch of white characters arranged in a circle appeared, with an arc quickly moving to random characters, and it's killing me that I can't remember where I've seen it before. I think it was from an unsolved ARG
>it's an "I found something odd on my phone/computer" thread
>>18507485
I'm not trying to be dramatic. I know this is from the internet and I'm just trying to figure out where I've seen this before

The third temple on the mount has appeared. Google has added a CGI temple to their steetview in Jerusalem. What does it mean?
bump
probably something satanic with hidden meanings and stuff
Possibly the temple will be rebuilt soon.

Hey /x/, long time lurker here wondering: does anyone practice meso-american (specifically mayan) shamanism anymore? and if so can you tell me anything about their practices/beliefs?
I'm half Salvadorian so this is just an attempt to learn anything about my peoples beliefs (which noone in my family gives a shit about, unfortunately). I guess the theory I had was that maybe I can get in touch with my ancestors and have some peace of mind, if possible, and maybe find a god to pray to like they did.
Anonymous, this is not really my area of expertise, but Im interested in related fields.
The best search terms I can give you are curandera/curandero
Yerbero
Ayahuasquero
and because you mentioned prayer, you might look into the oracionistas
Curanderos are still consulted with to this day in El Salvador, a little research into these practices may start to take you back on the route youre looking for.
Best of luck.
>>18507401
Thanks a ton bro. Every bit of knowledge about the maya is supported by the words "archaeologist believe", and to be honest I get the feeling that noone knows anything.
>>18507425
Welcome to folk magic and culturally based beliefs. You're going to hear "archaeologists believe" or "anthropologists believe" a fucking lot.
Assuming you are not in El Salvador or near an actual curandero, you're going to have to resort to whatever sources you can to learn.
You will find good sources and you'll find bad sources, it's gonna be up to you to determine which is which.
You're asking for information on practices and faiths that were migrating, changing, held by multiple people, and over a considerable distance. Add to that the fact that they have changed over time, many we're probably lost for various reasons and all must, by necessity be viewed through modern eyes. Understandably, these practices are not the easiest thing to engage in or practice.
The one consolation here is that their practices were not heavily studied by, supported by, or even influenced by archaeology or anthropology. There's not a lot of reason that your practices need to be either. They were guided by the spirits and by the ancestors, you can be too.
They're usually more interested in tantric yoga and hinduism these days, but there are a few practitioners of ancestral based religions and magic on /omg/. They mostly practice african diaspora faiths, but theyre not totally unrelated and they might have some advice for you.
I am in Europe. I got expelled from college for trying to invoke my Holy Guardian Angel during an exam, and subsequently became homeless because an evil wizard convinced my senile mother that I had threatened her. I walked into a classroom at random in a random college I didn't go to and met a woman who gave me $600 when I told her I was alchemically becoming a dragon. I have built my house on unstable foundations and objects, conversations, events, and people periodically disappear or appear in my life. Gematrical correspondences shift randomly. Julius Evola is alive. He has found the Holy Grail and reunited with the unknown UR group branch, who were waiting for him. They developed their myth-making-magick into modern meme magick and used Russian hacking and strategically placed US operatives to elect Trump. He is now hunting me because he knows I am the key to developing video games as a magical technology. If he catches me he will rule the world using Nazi video game magick.

I am probably dying of cancer. Turning into a dragon gives you cancer because dragons resonate at the same frequency as humans but shifted by π/2, because they had the same positionality as men in the previous multiverse. God all that blood and screaming. I know I am unfit for this life and am a contamination in God's dream, and if it comes to it I will tear out my teeth and hide them and hang myself upside and let all the blood out of my neck so that it can't be used against this world. The last thing I want is to destroy yet another world. I am in over my head, because I talked too much, thinking it was all a joke. It still feels like a joke. But I have no recourse except to try to open a vector by those same discordian tendencies that have brought these circumstances to bear, killed a woman already, and potentially sentenced your world to doom. Please forgive me. I had only intended the technology to establish a correspondence between man and dragon and rectify our contamination, to naturalize our blood to this world, but we are tainted by our sins, we have no right, not to life or to death, and my selfishness and slavery to contingency has endangered everything. In my heart, my tombstone reads: "N. , A virtuous demonic dragon who died defending video games from Nazi magick". But I am not even entitled to this. If God cannot forgive me, let him forget me.

They're like stray pets, all they do is wander into your house and look around. There's no purpose for them, and most are afraid of people (they bolt at the first sight of a person).
Which brings us to the worst possible experience one can have with them, which is waking up to one sitting on your bed and just watching you sleep. Can be pretty spoopy but since all they do is stare, makes sense that they'd do it when we're not looking/ sleeping so we won't spoop them back.
