@Samra I love where your head’s at. Music is this in my life. ❤️

That’s a deep trap, summarizing psychedelics as a high state. You’re not this dude, this guy, at all. He’s an appearance, along with the whole universe, in a spec in you, and even the spec takes up no space. It would seem like psychedelics of course effect the brain and alter the state, and they sure do, and also, in actuality they can lift the reality curtain entirely, which definitely includes the brain, and person, and universe. You’re apparently that funny - that you’d create a reality with a society which frowns upon the very ‘substance’ which reveals you’re behind the whole show. So the mountain to climb is inherent. It’s brilliant man. Well done. Enjoy! And sitting around meditating for years ain't gonna get you high like a drug. Without a foundation, the trips are much rougher, and the change in default state is negligible if at all. I’d stay focused on the default state, vs the highs. Both, with tenacity, are a solid combo. The word absolute is just one of the most agreeable terms, because it means, absolute, and when you experience it, you’d agree. Once you’ve seen that it is all your dream, you won’t care what word anyone uses.

@onacloudynight I have a close friend who I’ve done most (12 ish) of my trips with. He’s a fantastic trip mate, a great friend and a hell of a guy. We’re polar opposites on practices though. I meditate, eat clean, and exercise daily (used to self inquire daily) - he eats clean but no practices at all. I’ve retained / integrated each trip in a culminating progression until the big ‘me’ reveal and the nonduality is default. He hasn’t retained any insights. He and I were just talking about this. So, imo, the practices are more important. The trips amp things up, but without practices, it’s just fun being had without the spirituality. Hope that helps somewhat at least. @pluto Dude. Get out of my head! Lol So funny. I just went on a few day solo retreat, prepared with shrooms for tea. Did a couple hours meditation each day, and kept contemplating like ‘what is this trip about’, and I kept laughing. I had an intuitive sense that it would be pointless. Your post is right on for me. Skipped it. Got some deep quality meditation in, and plain ol relaxed a bit. Thanks!

Ha! Man I remember a ways back, saying that same thing. Like word for word. Awesome.

@StephenK Both. lol

@Tearos @Truth Addict That’s what I was gonna say!!! Dogma until directly EXPERIENCED. LMAO

A Christian will find God through Islam, and a Muslim will find God through Christianity.

@egoless ?

Please let me know when the laugh hits. Thank you.

@egoless Who says?

If you paint this, very colorful, in a theme of overflowing love, I’d like to buy the painting from you. Also, the bigger the better. I’ll pay for shipping too.

Give up nothing for everything. Good deal. Give up everything for nothing. Good deal also. Can’t lose.

@Quanty Just out of curiousity, which psychedelics have you tried?

Once the challenge is identified, enjoy creating the solution, master vision and what will be. No one is making any effort to stop you, and no one is coming to help. You are free.

@CroMagna Yes. Of course. ♥️

@perlita Beautiful! It’s a matter if minutes before a Ron Burgundy meme arises here.

@Space Thanks for sharing your experience. That ‘timelessness’ ♥️

@MM1988 with friends can be a decent introduction, drinking doesn’t help, consider future trips on a more solid foundation, and alone, With a trip sitter though.

@Truth I think you’ve got your head in the right place, the right foundation, and I’m super excited for you! I’m new to yoga, but having meditated 23 years and taken many trips, I agree with what Leo says, that a trip is equal to some number of years of practices. Both, in my opinion, is the obvious way to go if one is serious about this. you are wise to be open-minded. Do a lot of newbies a solid, and consider writing down your views on self, reality, God, etc. – before and after the trip. A testimony might help others to open their minds in terms of this paradigm of experience happening only within the brain versus the person and brain simply being Being. Also, in terms of availability of psychedelics, it seems to me to be a situation of, if you build it they will come. I believe you’ve certainly built it.

Infinity is a good word for self, denoting outside of limits imposed with thinking by illusion of finite self. There’s only self, and self playing. Unimaginable large Universe scale playing, and yet, not at all. SIlence is the only truth, boring in illusion though. God is the writer, all characters, and you the reader - of the Bible or any book. It’s ok to laugh. It’s very funny. “Everyone’s so intimately rearranged (Self)...it’s so fun to relate (illusion)...it’s the room, the sun & the sky (only Self)” (Lazy Eye) ”Who made who? Ain’t nobody told you?” ACDC “How do you know when it’s love? I can’t tell you, but it lasts forever” VH ”Sail” -Awolnation This “matter” is a living “bible” of Truth; every cell, every atom, every word, all telling you, all the time. All there is is Truth. Nothing is hidden What you grieve most will be revealed to be the most humorous.

The ‘knowledge’ is thinking, the introduction of duality (Good & evil) or other-than-awareness....separatism leading to “self consciousness”, “the fall” from the grace of nondual.

@TruthSeeker47 Yeah. Practices, learning, etc.

@Shakazulu Believe in yourself. You can do anything.
