I like your attitude, but it's a bit too pessimistic (realistic).
Having biological death at the forefront of ones attention is really important for this pursuit. It negates forgetting that you'll fucking DIE and live on for decades before realizing you'll fucking DIE again.
The more focus you have on a goal, the higher the chances of achieving it. So I wouldn't say it's unfeasable to get to a "supernatural" state and achieve actual power for someone browsing here.

We don't have to talk about someones abilities or where someone here is. Thankfully, for the most part, everything here is anonymous.
What matters is having a plan. Anons come here and throw some half assed, loosely defined practice systems into the thread. They are as loosely defined as our perception of reality. We are all swimming in an ocean of piss and shit, from the perspective of someone seeking "immortality". Most here can't even read the whole OP text to understand what is meant with that.
But that's ok, this isn't an academic environment. Hell, even academia can't get anywhere near it, with all that scientific rigor, which probably is all just a bunch of dogmatic bullshit and genuine wizardry as well (from group 1).

Even with the internet, even with "AI," even with most books and data freely available, we can't lay out a path. A way that makes logical sense, from A to B. It's insane. By now I have accumulated a heap of data about this topic over many years, but it's worthless. Even if you seriously begin working on cultivating "abilities", and come face to face with the consequences, it doesn't help because somehow, you are still rooted on earth as a human, as a slave...

All I know right now is that forgetting might be the best bet at "immortality." Void.
But I still hope we can have a little mysterious community sharing knowledge until it clicks. It's likely an individual path anyway, which makes all this many times more complicated (or simple).
