Psychedelic Methodology Inquisition

1 post in this topic

@Leo Gura Over the years you have been realizing the deepest things about reality. You must have some form of a method in which your arriving at these insights, as you have been getting consistent results! I had a question on your personal methodology when using Psychedelics. I've come up with a few points in which I think would be potential ways or methods in which one can arrive at insights, based on my own direct experience but also just thinking about methods. Could you possibly mention something about each method or simply point out the method that has been most frequent for your experience? Im trying to design a structure to follow a method that is repeatable at generating insights or that which is most likely to facilitate optimal results. Some of these points will be obvious but I wanted to be thorough at options, the Points are as follows:

  • Are you contemplating mid trip a topic or question and the insights arise out of this process?
  • During a trip, do insights arise from having already studied related information, (so questions are there, but resides in your memory so your not really thinking about them) where as the information then becomes directly experienced?
  • Are you reading certain books then contemplate what you read either (pre-mid-post) trip? Which period is most optimal?
  • Is it that you are holding questions in mind pre-trip, like an intention of a specific question or concept?
  • Do you contemplate a specific or a set of question/concepts thought out the week, then during a trip at a later date the insights arise revealing information or answers about what was contemplated prior?
  • Do insights spontaneously occur and are immediately recognized and "known" or even totally "unknown" but require questioning. Then you contemplate the insight over time and come to realizations? 
  • Do insights occur in one trip, then whether understood or not understood further contemplated again specifically during another trip?
  • Do certain insights take multiple contemplation trips repeatedly before understanding of the topic has been realized?
  • What then is your actions steps after an insight is realized? (Documentation method)  Do you write it down then contemplate it later, does it just "stick" or do you purposely wait for another trip to contemplate it?

In a sense im rearranging the same questions to have in an order that fits a particular method. Trying to narrow it all down a bit, But If you have a specific arrange of these methods you have observed to be most accurate please designate that order. If order is irrelevant and any of these really would work, you must have one that seems to be more consistent than others or set of combinations, please designate your observations. Im all about direct experience and my own trial and error with most things, so Im more than happy to answer these questions myself and enjoy that process which I intend to do, however due to only having limited resources of psychedelics and funds to dedicate available, it occurred to me that seeking advice from someone who has already done over 100 trips, it would be smarter to ask this kind of question and see what has been an effective method or be introduced to a new way I haven't thought of and follow that more often. Thank You, and hope to hear from you! 

Anyone else on the forum your welcome to mention your personal process and respond, as I am open to all suggestions which may be new to me.


Focus on the solution, not the problem
