Bazooka Jesus

I guess y’all know by now that I am a big fan of classical music; here are a few of my very favorite creations of all time:

Btw, I plan to try out shamanic breathing today... you guys got any useful tips before I go ahead and pant myself into the twilight zone?

...just remind yourself that all that you are going to encounter during the trip is YOURSELF! (Sorry 'bout yesterday's little shitpost, I just thought that video was too freaking hilarious to not share it, heh. )

...watch this video. If that aint going to get you psyched, nothing will!

Cool, thanks for the great tips @inFlow and @LaucherJunge -- I'll keep working on it!

@inFlow Pweeeeeeeeeehhhhhhww, I just tried to do it like you described it... holy moly, this shit got me gasping for air like a fish out of water after only two breath cycles! Is it just a matter of practice until you get used to it?

@inFlow 20-25 seconds? Holy schnitzel... yeah, I can see how this might cause your mind to switch into standby mode. LOL

How do you do your Ujjayi breathing? More or less like this? EDIT - Just read your step by step instruction, I think I got it

@Nahm Be careful what you wish for, rainbow puke can lead to serious pipe blockage

@Nahm In that case, I guess just sit back & enjoy your life as a toilet bowl

What a great message, and what an amazing delivery!

The reason I am here? Oh that's easy: I am here in order to research the most reliable tools and methods to get shitfaced out of my goddamn mind. And learn a little about the meaning of life and all that Jazz. HEH!

I wait until it's dark outside, hahaha

Hahahahahahaha... oh my god, why has nobody told me that dying is sooooo utterly fucking amazing? Ah well, you probably have told me but I never listened. HAH!

Dude, it's called the Terrence McKenna method... "5g in silent darkness" used to be practically his catchphrase!

@PlayOnWords C'mon, I did 400 μg a couple of times. It's fun!

@PlayOnWords Awesome. Why don't you blast yourself into the fourth dimension with 400-500 μg of acid as an intermediary step and then take it from there? (This is actually my personal new year's resolution.)

Yeah, sorry for the clickbait If you're reading this, Leo (which of course you do, lol): I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for getting me hooked on spirituality in general and psychedelics in particular; without you, I would probably never have decided to melt my non existing brain with those divine chemicals that are truly the nectar of the gods. I would have missed some of the most incredible experiences that a human being can have on this planet - and I have just barely begun to scratch the surface! THANKS BUDDY.

@actualizing25 Oh, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too old, lol! Let's just say I wish that I had discovered psychedelics at least ten years earlier; but I guess better late than never, heh. - I think it's true though that you are probably better equipped to deal with the mindfucks that psychedelics have in store for you when you're already somewhat grounded in life and have gone through & survived the mindfucks that regular adult life throws at you over the years; but like I said, you are ready whenever you personally feel ready. (It can be tricky though to distinguish the neurotic ramblings of your ego from the genuine intuition which is your inner voice of wisdom; really listen in on yourself and try to finetune your heart's radio dial in order to pick up a clear signal that can serve as your compass. The whole psychedelic journey is basically a process of finetuning; the more often you trip, the more you get in touch with your intuition, which in return leads to better and deeper trips.) I also think that Javfly33 definitely has a point when he says that the credo "People with depression should never ever do psychedelics" is way too simplistic; personally, I have been depressed out of my fucking mind over the years, and I gotta say that mushrooms and LSD have been the greatest discovery for me ever since I learned to walk!

@OBEler I really don't think it is the same, to be honest. Good luck keeping your eyes closed for four to five hours straight... the temptation to open them at some point is just too big; and then there is something about staring into the darkness with wide open eyes that really gives you the feeling of looking right into your own soul as opposed to of blocking whatever tries to sneak through your eyelids by keeping them shut like a scared little kid. Even wearing an eyemask will probably give you this feeling that you just created an artificial barrier between yourself and the big bad psychedelic wolf that's lurking out there, ready to snap at you any second. When tripping in total darkness, you kind of feel like an unborn baby that is safely tucked into his or her mother's womb, which is exactly what you want to be shooting for!

Did you ever have a full blown ego death exeprience on LSD? If so, how did it feel?

Yeah, I know that this can be a little confusing when you're starting out. I think the best advice that you can give anyone is to really listen to your own intuition and to always start small; just carefully babystep your way towards higher doses and don't rush anything - and if your gut tells you that something is a bad idea, then DON'T DO IT. Most importantly: Never do anything in order to impress people (or yourself for that matter). Belonging to the "cool kids club" is definitely not worth a psychosis. In short, always listen to your heart & keep your intentions pure and you should be fine.

Hey guys, one more thing that I would like to ad for those among you who are interested in emulating my divine mushroom experience: For me, tripping in the dark is paramount! One of the reasons why I have greatly preferred LSD over mushrooms in the past is that the type of visuals I get on a high dose of shrooms / a medium dose of DMT usually only serve to creep the hell out of me; while some folks seem to enjoy them, I always felt that they are the visual equivalent of nails on a chalkboard. When I trip in complete darkness however, I cannot even really tell the difference between LSD and mushrooms as far as the visual patterns are concerned; so when I prepared for this experience, I made the solemn oath to categorically keep the fingers off the damn light switch, come bloody hell or high water. This served not only to reduce my anxiety during the comeup, but it also kept all unnecessary distractions at a minimum and grounded me in the present moment. Trust me, when you embark on a blind date with the not-so-grim reaper, you don't want any funky hallucinations to get between the two of you and spoil the romantic mood, so do yourself a favor and just keep the lights off. (Fun fact: Approximately two to three hours after ingestion, I realized that I needed to pee really freaking bad... and of course I knew that there was no goddamn way I was going to touch any light switch within reach; so I got up, sat on the edge of the bed, thought "Naaah, I can hold it in" and laid down again; five minutes later I got up again, stood in the middle of the room for two minutes, though "Fuck it" and laid down once more; another ten minutes later I stood up, made my way to the bedroom door and opened it veeeeeery slowly only to immediately shut it again and return back to the safe haven of my matress; a while later I made it all the way to the bathroom door but once more cancelled the mission prematurely and opted for strategic retreat before I could relieve my bladder... I think it took me about five or six attempts before I actually managed to complete my heroic foray towards the toilet bowl. I sure hope I didn't pee on the rug, LOL.)

Thanks again for this wonderful trip report; reading it definitely inspired me to embark on my own high dose mushroom journey, and what a wonderful journey it was! I wish you all the best my man -- I know you are going to get it in the end, as will everyone of us.
