also... "

Just take acid. Why experience regurgitations when you can experience It first hand? The answer is laziness. The solution, is dropping. And I mean dropping hard, like ceremoniously slowly setting a sheet of blotter on your tongue, closing your eyes, relaxing in your chair/bed of choice, and be brave by Letting Go, Forever."

 

I'm assuming this is a joke as per WATMM style? ;)

 

don't do that kids, get the proper equipment, a bottle of it if you can (proper liquid) and get the proper kit to drop a precise dose onto a fruit pastel or sugar cube.

 

Don't fuck about, rinse it properly!!!

 

for some small minority the quoted suggestion might work, for everyone else that is a risky gambit, no point in being foolish with trips.

Well, if one's picking up acid, it's hopefully from that one dude who knows that dude who knows some deep peoplez who are safe and full of light, who can be trusted cuz they have LSD purity sensors in their brainz. But even liquid acid- apparently- APPARENTLY- no street nuthin' has ever been like the original batch of Orange Sunshine, which was supposedly some legendary crystalline clear experience, without that grime.

 

As for shrooms- yah, nature's always quality. Never done pure psilocybin, but in general, one of my favorite substances. So high tech, yet ancient.

Yeah I used think everyone in the world should drop acid at least twice.

Not anymore. Too many people can't handle ego death.

Also agree with John E. Acid is a young persons drug...at 40 the thought of the acid come down makes me shake my head. Body just doesn't recover like it used to.

i "lived" shrooms & blotters for a good few years, late 80's & still live with the personal damage from that whole era.

 

"Walls" (a sheet completed the P.Floyd image), purple ohms, kilos of microdots, strawberries, green ohms, mushroom brews of 3000+ among 4 or 5 of us ....not advisable for a 17/18yr old week in week out..........that lead to mescaline and dmt (<--- the real porthole).

 

What did i learn/bring back? Fuck all revelatory i can remember, but it was fun 99% of the time, until a huge bar brawl & gallons of blood ruined 1 particular evening. So, as much as you think you can control your environment & surroundings, some times they control you, very definitely.

 

Wrestling with that head-space now is the stuff of nightmares and (eg) i couldnt really advocate my 73yr old Mum getting psychedelic. Everyone who's taken this range of drugs knows how unpredictable they can be.

 

Thats what i'd teach kids now - "are you ready to look the Devil in the eye when you originally set out on seeing the mind of God?"

I never got in any brawls but I mostly tripped in these 06377-11-mindfold.jpg

ganzfeld/white out gives more vivid visuals but makes your eyes water a lot. besides being in a wide open nature space, wearing a mindfold (lol) in my bedroom was my preferred setting

People can't handle ego death, which is why they need it.

 

I mean they literally can't handle it - their minds would snap. The resources of everyone who didn't would be dedicated to the psychiatric care of those who did.

 

Acid was my drug of choice for about 5 years, I'd say at one point I was tripping at least once a week, sometimes twice a week, usually two hits at a time, often more. This is not to boast, just to demonstrate that I have some idea of what the effects of acid are.

 

Drinking mushroom tea in a bar/restaurant was a particularly interesting experiment. Very chill. Luckily you could still smoke in bars in those days, otherwise never would have made it. From what I understand you lot in the UK eat a different kind of mushroom than we get in the pacific northwest? Cause I read about people taking 50+ caps in the UK, and the shrooms we were eating, 50 caps would be a hellscape. And such a shame, mushrooms used to be legal in Japan, but not for some time now. It was great walking into head shops and being able to pick up a bag categorized by dosage.

50 caps of any psilocybin containing mushroom would be a hellscape.what you heard either a lie or an exaggerated tale of what i like to call overblown psychedelic machismo. The kinds we get in the states are usually cubensis and those are usually dosed in increments like a half 1/8th for a moderate trip or a whole 1/8th for a fairly strong trip. An 1/8th of shrooms common around here could easily provide ego death.

In the UK it's legal from what I've heard to possess fresh mushrooms but not dried(?) so that could also alter the weight or the amount people are claiming to trip on.

To get a small group of regular trip-heads hammered with fresh mountain shrooms, the small hill-side/meadow variety you find here, 2000/3000 would be guaranteed 20+hr (or longer) matrix for everyone. If they're dry, or broken down to powder later on, you need a fraction of that, but thats still a tolerance build up from tripping most weekends, week nights permitting,,,,,, felt duty bound suburban shamanism styles. The only way do it was to brew up em up in batches then reduce lol and drink with orange juice, too rank otherwise and a very good chance of projectiling on the come-up...

 

Golden rule of tripping was the "walkabout",,,,,, you couldnt imagine lying back with cosmic specs on - not at least until the come down, w/selected ambient works ;)

a lot of people i know require that they move around alot while tripping or have some kind of physical outlet like a hike or a walk but i dont know why i always preferred tripping alone even when I was outdoors. on low doses I liked being in social settings, but anything close to an ego dissolve no thanks

Yeah I only ever did them dried, so taking more than an 1/8 was not advisable. I think the most I ever took was getting close to a 1/4 and that was insane.

Like JE, low doses for social situations (being on shrooms in public in japan for example). High doses with very close friends who were also tripping and experienced psychonauts. Pro-tip: northern lights on mushrooms is a must.

Your execution was the problem, yo- not the substances involved. Like the bar brawl... What the fuck? You don't become one with sacred substances crafted by Zeus and Gaia themselves, into a space that's meant for willful retardedness, escapism, and general debauchery. That is an insult to psychedelics and an insult to your own humanity.

 

Environment and context are of utmost importance in getting the true value from psychedelics. Not controlling these variables in the trip just results in a bastardized experience.

 

My general rules: If not tripping alone, only- ONLY- trip with very close friends. Never trip in an environment that has hostile potential. Tripping is not for party environments. To me, tripping is just a meditative state that is assisted by supercharging and aligning one's internal resonant frequencies (of chakras) to the Consciousness Of All. In that sense, through tripping, we are merely shown our truest forms of self.

 

As for tripping with one's mum or old people tripping, etc... In general, if people are willing to grow- i.e. they actually put up with hard experiences to realize that the sense of suchness is required for spiritual/personal growth, instead of trying to escape this inevitability- they are living the path of The Trip, and going hardcore may not benefit them much, except for bringing about an awe-level of respect for All and contentment with the infinite journey that is The Life. Generally responsible and hard working, thinking people, are actually living by the wisdom that psychedelics can give. So in a somewhat ironic sense, the ones who benefit from tripping the most, are already quite intelligent and well-rounded individuals who have at least the start of a foundation in realizing oneself. To those types of people, it will become apparent that they've always been tripping. To those who can only experience "ooh, colors and crazy shit, and I like da arfox twonz, cuz they're a techno band so cool and weird"-- these people cannot yet perceive the depth of the experience- let alone themselves when sober- but the substances will still put in support beams of high Consciousness, which can assist in their mundane whateverz.

 

Whilst I do believe that psychedelics have the ability to bring all of humanity to its penultimate strong point, I also believe that some people put a shitload of effort in being able to not see anything. I used to think lack of sense of self was lack of IQ points or some innate shit like that, but now I believe it's willful and subconscious highly calculated retardedness. To these people, the only way to change them, is for the enlightened ones to show them the benefit of not being retarded-- possibly by performing skillz at ultra level, being ultra level at all forms of aesthetics, etc. This is the only way forward. So in the right the fuck now-- to those who do have that glimmer of god and infinity in them and live it on a daily basis- it is their- OUR- responsibility to show the rest why it's badass to have Ultra Consciousness. What is the "other side" doing to convince and sway the balance of strong humanity into retardedness? -Attempting to show value of money, porno pointless sex in daily life, partying, stupidity, popularity, consumerism, laziness. Honestly, they're doing a pretty good job at being convincing, so if you've got IT in you-- better up your game, yo. It is our Cosmic Responsibility to be at the utmost of Our game, constantly.

 

If you have IT and are not using IT, then you are willfully retarded-- and, you lose. We all lose.

Really? who are you to tell people where and when they should or shouldn't trip?

I've tripped in bars/clubs/parties many times and always came out unscathed - although I did get slapped once by some girl who first spilled her beer on me and then blamed me for it. Whatever, the Butthole Surfers were about to play.

 

LSD was not crafted by Zeus or Gaia (lol) btw - it is synthesized by man, does not occur naturally, and is not used in traditional ancient healing rituals.

It is however, good fun, and can lead to questioning your reality and existentialism.

I'm just me, yo, and just sayin' that for best results, shit environments are not recommended for psychedelics of any kind. You can't fully let go and experience, when you're worrying or feeling the need to protect your physical/mental well being. And if you do let go fully in a public environment, you might accidentally get in trouble, or someone might touch your peepee with a knife.

 

As far as synthesis is concerned-- you honestly think Zeus and Gaia are so weak that they work linearly through human time? You think your reply to my post wasn't written ages ago and also in the future simultaneously? You think all the great art in this world was created by mere humans? We've done this shit infinite times before, and we'll continue to do it. Our species will die and return on this planet over and over, and Gaia won't be phased one bit. We are all just vessels of potential Ultra- channels for the gods-- whether we realize our potential, though, is our choice. At the end of my post, I spoke of ultra aesthetics and performing skillz at ultra level-- people like Albert Hofmann and Alexander Shulgin used western science at ultra level; living The Path. In contrast, a lot of modern western medicine creations help through escaping of the fundamental problems; creations with primary intention to make money. It is the difference of "sides" that I mentioned at the end of my last post.

 

We can be weak and lazy and be nothing more than the flesh we are, or, we can realize Ultra and surf the cosmos amongst the divine. Just because it is perceived that we are here, does not mean that we are.

 

Zeus is waiting in his Lamborghini Countach, and it's up to you whether or not you're worthy to cruise with him.

Mate - firstly, calm down with the evangelizing about altered states, you're clearly an articulate bloke, why ruin it.

 

I've ingested just about every mind altering substance known to mankind, in low & high quantities, and have mapped out those head-spaces for myself AND mankind in great detail (see note regarding shamanic obligations).

 

I've tripped in the countryside - in lush summer meadows @ Solstices @ Stonehenge, Newgrange in Eire, The Stones of Stenness in Orkney and at the Carnac Neolithic alignments in Brittany ,,,,, essentially the "full British psychedelic pagan quest". I've tripped in the sea by ancient Mediterranean ruins while swimming (very strange initially, then you just let go as you say....) and @ Castlemorton, the UK's acid-house equivalent to Woodstock, which combined with dutch mdma was just about as good as it got for me personally.

 

But once, just once, i took blotter acid at a party with old friends (summer 1990), dint come up after 2hrs, necked my friend's trip too (he was late) and then found myself among a group of extremely hammered psychotic football hooligans. It didnt end well. People got threatened who were close to me and after someone got their face glassed open its fair to say the Devil himself tapped me on the shoulder and asked if i was enjoying the ride. Not really, Mr Devil, things appear to have shifted into black magickal realms, Sir. Nevertheless, a few years after this night i did a couple of ohms just to go back in that "room"/get back on the horse, to confront whatever and it was one of the looser, more fun packed drug experiences i've had. You live & learn eh.

 

If you're immature ingesting these substances IS like rolling dice with your sanity. It takes maturity and the gods good grace to keep things "fluffy" and it goes w/out saying about settings. Even w/maturity, attend any local psychiatric unit close to any major city and, time after time, you WILL find people irreversibly altered by hallucinogenics and not for the better. Have you read any Philip K Dick?

 

If yer a regular tripper, good luck, enjoy it to the max, do what works for you, but be cautious too cos the consequences can be lifelong.

Thanks, man. May safety and good vibez be with us all.

 

You're right about immaturity being dangerous. If too not ready, it's like being in primary school and then all of sudden having to raise a family of ten. -not gonna end well.

 

As for tripping- I rarely do nowadays. Once every few years; if that. I believe I've learnt all I can from them. The other half of learning is application. Still working on it. ...Always working on it. (As for my experience, I take meditation and tripping as the same. Been meditating over 20 years- psychedelics since late 90's. Energy healing and direct energy work ~17 years. If you're friends with B (of B&D who do ATP) he can relay direct experience with my work- gave him a session a couple years ago.

 

Godspeed, cosmic warriors~

archaeology has appropriated and invigorated shamanic studies recently

What is a shaman?
  1. Shamans can mediate between this world and the next, between humans and animals, living and dead (control of animal movement / water / sun – important for hunting and growing crops)
  2. Shamans can communicate with the dead, accompany the dead (take messages from living to the dead and vice-versa – ‘dialogues with the dead’)
  3. Shamans have ambiguity of sex and role-play (they have been viewed as ‘tricksters’ – people can’t tell if they are telling the truth or not – this is integral to their performances)
  4. Performance of controlled trance, seeking knowledge through ecstasy
  5. Use of altered states (see table below) – accessing the spiritual world, transcending reality through metaphor
  6. The shaman’s power may be devised from spirits but can reside in objects, songs, or actions, such as beating a drum or shaking a rattle
  7. Shamans act as healers of disease or can been dark shamans sending evil energy to competing groups / tribes or individuals (such as murderers)
  8. Shamans can steal goods whilst under trance
  9. Shamans live in a tiered world – a three tiered world is similar to our own with heaven / middle earth / hell. Shamans from around the world have more than three, e.g. some south American shamans have up to 9 or 11 levels. These are climbed through initiation and altered states.
Table 1: Techniques for Entering an Altered State of Consciousness (ASC) 1. Auditory driving such as drumming and singing 2. Hallucinogens 3. Fasting and nutritional deficits 4. Physical or sensory deprivation including ‘hostage situations’ 5. Increased mental activity 6. Meditation 7. Strong flickering light 8. Excessive movement or dance 9. Austerities such as wounds and feats of endurance 10. Intensive temperature conditions 11. Sleep and dream states 12. Staring into a mirror 13. Sexual restrictions 14. Alcohol 15. Migraine and other pathological symptoms 16. Posture 17. Pilgrimages to specific locations

I live it daily, yo. Here's a ghey pic of me in an Egyptian magazine when I was living in Cairo (if you read the whole interview, some parts are off, but 'tis the nature of non-transcript interviews, I suppose):

http://nothinggg.com/nao-2.jpg

 

In the truest sense, like He-Man, we all got ze power, yo. We can all become high level in anything (Ultra just takes mental-time). Interestingly, 10+ years after I started serious meditation and energy work and made the most advances, my mom trained in Japan in some related field that is not connected to my work (most of my learning is from self-study and experience, but I suppose a lot of my foundation work correlates with Indian and Chinese philosophies), and now after about 10 years of training, she does healing in Tokyo (and also still training and advancing regularly). I thought I got it from my father since he's the one who first helped me with meditation in early elementary school, and he was the more thinking/philosophical one of my parents (giving me his book on Socrates when I was 5 or so and introducing me to puzzles and optical illusions, where I realized that simple perception is far from truth). Turns out it was from both sides, or my vibez just spread hardcore. Anyway, my whole life has been shamanistic in a sense. It's a deep part of who I've always been.
