The opposites might be:
- centered-in-appearances/distractions
- centered in one’s profoundest-fundamentallest-awareness
Framing it that way, then yoga-practice augmented meditation would be as IRL as one could get, for meditators…
and RMind-mode sentience, a sentience where words-communication doesn’t even exist as an appendage of one’s mind , where ONLY what-is is real, and this is reachable through working-through the exercises in Betty Edwards’ “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, the 4th Definitive Edition”, but use charcoals, I’ve no idea why she doesn’t understand how much better they work to help facilitate the hemisphere-dominance-shift into right-hemisphere-dominance-mode…
that timeless sentience is … inexpressible in symbol-streams, which is what the “online” experience holds reality to itself be…
The people who proclaim that RMind is just pop-psychology bunk have never done the experiment , AND won’t do the experiment , AND they refuse to differentiate between scrawlings done in LMind & the actually-visible-different-results of RMind

allows you to use the “prev” & “next” buttons to scroll through a gallery showing the sentience-difference, the what-actually-is centrism of RMind.
Those horrid scrawlings that used to populate New Scientist magazine, back when I subscribed, had nothing to do with right-hemisphere-dominance-mode.
Those who “debunk” RMind do so using Scientism’s method of substitution-of-the-actual-question:
they test scrawling, measure that it isn’t different from normal LMind, then pretend that that “proves” RMind doesn’t exist.
See those image-pairs, in that gallery, though: that is EVIDENCE, which is supposed to be the basis of real Science.
Do the experiment, & it’ll open an entire dimension of meaning in your life, that “education” had blocked-out from most lives, quite effectively.
( I’m autistic: what her “killer class” can do with a neurotypical in 5 days, took me 3 YEARS to equal, because sentience-mode-shift made me want to scream.
I dropped it.
Now I’m trying to re-learn, and it’s grindingly slow.
Better grindingly slow than dead, however, eh? : )

Haha. That’s the neat part, coming across points of view you haven’t thought of before! People really do get high in a lot of different ways and be “offline” in a a lot of different ways. LOL
