Anon. I'll give you a hint. Think of the worst vice you have. The one that you know is wrong. Stop it today and you'll get answers tomorrow.

Read the Gospels KJV with an open heart

This treats sin as if God is a coin slot. What makes you think that ceasing "your biggest vice" automatically grants wisdom? This reeks of Baalite prosperity false gospel gnosticism

Classical psychedelics allow you to reprogram your brain, if you use them responsibly. I suggest magic shrooms or mescaline. They work by increasing neuroplasticity.

There’s the expense ways and the cheap way. The expensive ways are going into a a sensory deprivation tank or a monitored darkroom for 4 days. The cheap way is the latter without the monitors. The “$64,000 Question” (an old game show) is “Can you stand being alone with yourself for that long without distractions?”

>Archeops is a large, avian Pokémon that bears traits of both birds and reptiles. Its featherless, scaly snake-like head is red with a green stripe running along the top. Its mouth is filled with sharp teeth. Its eyes are white with black pupils and no irises. Its body is covered with frayed-looking yellow and blue feathers designed for flight on its arms and legs enabling all four of its limbs to act as wings. All of these "wings" bear sharp claws. It has a ring of smaller green feathers on the ankles. Its tail is completely red and featherless except for a fan of blue feathers at the end, and as with the Archaeopterygiformes, it has fully-movable vertebrae in its tail instead of a pygostyle. Its plumage is very delicate.

>It is capable of flying, but is more adept at running, taking a running start to take flight with its weak wing muscles. To achieve flight, Archeops must run nearly 25 mph (40 km/h) as it builds up speed over a course that is 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) long. Archeops can hunt more efficiently when on the ground. Archeops is known to be intelligent, hunting for its prey in packs. One Archeops first corners the prey before another swoops down on it. It can outrun even an automobile. It has the intelligence to work with its partners to catch prey. Archeops are extinct but can be revived via fossils. Archeops is omnivorous; along with hunting for prey, it was shown eating fruit in the Pokémon the Series: Black & White episode Archeops In The Modern World!

>Archeops and its pre-evolved form, Archen, are the only known Pokémon that can have Defeatist as an Ability.

Fast as long as you can and meditate for hours until you stop feeling your legs itching from being seated on the lotus position.

Keep fasting for as long as you can, and when you feel like actually eating, then meditate. If in that desperate state of hunger you don't gain some wisdom then try other methods

And no, I never did one of those things, but the one who wanna rewire their brain so it depends of you if you'll do it lmao

the short answer is you have to immerse your brain in novel experience

do things you haven't done before.

forces the brain to adapt and develop new ways of thinking

This is something I excel at and have sort of made a system out of.
You're aware of what Neuroplasticity is, right? Try learning a new way to do the same routine you have. Don't rapidly alter the things you do regularly, but make psychological alterations to what you're doing; learn to induce mental plasticity. It helps to do some sort of physical workout in tandem. Just keep learning new things and be humble about what you're learning.
As for practical activities, one of the particular rituals I developed was learning to perform a daily ritual backwards. What that means is up to you, as I can't know your routine and don't want to know it. On top of that, what some, especially the Jungian world, call Shadow Work is very helpful to these ends. Truly examine things and be playful about how you present ideas, to whom you present them and how often or where you present them. Find out what sets right with people or doesn't and learn to balance that against your perspective.
These examples can deeply aid you as you learn to figure things out. Think of it like Intellectual Thrifting, like being mentally promiscuous. Ignore all criticism about "not making up your mind". You have a prerogative as a grown up with individuality to change your mind as much as you please. If people call you flighty and womanish, it's because you've ruined some of their plans, their perspective on something or have otherwise inconvenienced them. No one cares about the kind of person you are and this sort of issue stopping you would be a big disappointment.

>>40500270 (OP)
>How to open your mind
I'll try tell ya what I think the secret is anon, and forgive me for not being articulate

There is no word that I know of in any language (albeit I only know English) that describes this. It is this very strong discomfort with not knowing stuff. In a way this feeling for lack of a better word is the driving force of our curiosity, in that we're driven to know the unknown. However this feeling can be so strong (even tho it's very subtle) that in spite of our curiosity, and trying to find answers, if people can't find the answer then this feeling may overwhelm people's logic and they'll just make up answers, that we know are wrong, but we somehow convince our self, simply to satisfy and satiate this "feeling" that I've left unnamed. Or maybe we'll give up part way, and if something is close enough we'll accept it as truth, just to make this feeling of "not knowing" go away

The secret to having an open mind, is learning to be at peace with this feeling the. Instead of seeking answers to the unknown as quickly as humanly possible to make this 'feeling' go away as fast as possible, the real trick to having an open mind is just living with this feeling. If you can do that, then instead of seeking one single answer to something, you can explore ALL POSSIBLE ANSWERS to something. Instead of exploring a single facet of an unknown, you can explore all parts of it

Accept/embrace your own ignorance. Accept that are known knowns (the things you know you know) known unknowns (the things you know you don't know), and unknown unknowns. (the stuff you don't even know is even a thing)

Also, if you really want to go full schizo mode (I don't recommend it) is go full on fuzzy logic. Accept that you are not capable of ever knowing if something is truly 100% true or false and therefore everything in your mind is in a state of flux somewhere between true/false. I think it's fine for stuff to lean or be closer to true/false but nothing can ever be 100%

have you tried reading? pick up a fantasy book.

how bro this so hard man

>>40505434
That's exactly correct. All doing Occult stuff will ever be is "pseudopscience". The catch is all of us have abandoned your pathetic appeals to authority and have begun performing our own science instead of the Science™ which you've apparently formed into your own "God".

>>40504596

Remarkably wise, anon.

>>40505459
The latter half of your post was complete projected drivel spawned from schizophrenic delusion. No I have not formed "ScienceTM" into my own "God" - I am simply employing above double digit IQ to infer that you have spouted nothing but meaningless drivel.

I'm saying none of the normalfags are doing "real science". All of today's "real science" is necessarily Occulted.
>>40505474
I'm saying you're an idiot and that "Science" based solely on manipulation/influence techniques (so your fantasy of what people have told you "Science" is) is not what that word means. Instead, the word means something entirely different to the ways you use it, have always used it and apparently always will use it. There is a divergence between what you think "Science" is and what the rest of us practice, which you've chosen to convince yourself cannot possibly be real. Why? It's because your reality is not real and anyone who disagrees with it risks crashing your fantasy, so you desperately try to defend your position by attacking us, trying to make us look crazy.
We've all seen this before.

Look, "Meditation" isn't really the right way for everyone. Sure, it probably helps the most people, but you don't necessarily want to just sit there. I'm absolutely certain mastering Jhanas can at least get close to Samadhi-Gnosis, but you don't necessarily need Meditation for this. It's certainly the universally effective way though.
What you're looking for is a philological effect. All of the le gurus insist you shouldn't use drugs, muh sex magic or any of the various additional shamanic gateways because of the need to understand the intricate nuances involved with their overuse and the adjacent side effects. If you want to starve yourself, use some kind of sensory deprevation, chant or use mantras, stare at candles or whatever else, be my guest. I highly suggest using what's genetically most common to access the Deity you're aiming for.
Or are you just trying to quiet your thoughts? Can I offer some insights on doing so? Stability is an absence of variance, right? When you're in a situation that is imbalanced, unsuitable and therefore leaves you at a disadvantage, do you think stability or variability is of more benefit? Sometimes the Chaos of not having calm thoughts can grant you brilliant insights. I'll admit it's best coupled with complimentary techniques though.

>>40505923
meditation is not sitting
it is being
it is your natural state
you are the quiet awareness behind thought
you are not thought
if you are "meditating" for "psychological effect" you are doing it wrong

No, I was saying Physiological Effect. If what you're doing doesn't have such an effect in some capacity, you should try something else. Maybe you like Dancing or Chanting instead.
>if you are "meditating" for "psychological effect" you are doing it wrong
No, you're doing it wrong, spending so much time on things that aren't helping you as much as you want.
Most of the supposed Yogis out there have obscenely sharp axes, but they cut absolutely nothing down with them. Great, you spent loads of time sharpening it. That's awesome. But when will you do something with it?

>>40504596
as other anon said, wise insight
resonates very much

if I don't see any action as a mistake, it keeps it flowing,
all one needs is to observe,
slow and steady helps
no hurry to be anywhere or to be anything
the mind would remain sensitive and resonant
answers and all sorts of possibilities present themselves
yet you remain with the question, the feeling of not knowing, of not grasping for an answer (greedily if I might add)
the mystery, the potential, the sacred,

Be numb to the readings, a conduit for their transmissions. What is said cannot affect you, it cannot be you and it cannot alter you. It's nothing other than a translation. The Liminality at play is precisely where the Magic comes from, the Paradox.
This, anons, is your "Quantum Wave", your "Observer Effect", it's what precedes collapsing the Wave. It's how you channel Magic so you can exert it (the part I'm leaving out, obviously).
