i woulda went with the truth. why would you not wanna know the truth? maybe the cage represented the snake going around the truth, or the people who would try to bring you down who knows, but def shoulda went with the truth.
Or maybe the truth is beyond comprehension and the cage is a mental institution. Yes I would know the truth but it would be so far out that the people of society would not be able to recognize it.
I had a similar shroom trip last night. I was walking around and I started to realize that I was not walking at all, it was like I was just tuning in for my fated story. I strayed from reality but kept walking. Every once in a while I would pop back into reality and notice things which confirmed that reality was 100% all in my head. I felt deathly cold at those moments like a zombie shell of a body and so I wandered home and got under some covers. I then began my journey to the end of the night. I faced the fact that I was in a cage but that the cage feels better than the truth. My mind saw the eye. I thought that the eye had something behind it which I imagined as a snake that was leaching off of the eye. It felt like the snake was a parasite leaching off of my being. Every once in a while I would have to go pee and everything in the house was a glowing rainbow of waves. It felt as though I was exploring the true reality for an eternity, like there was no time limit and I could stay forever if I wanted in this nothingness. I seemed to make a decision about 30 minutes before sunrise. I chose once again to return to my body and accept the illusion. It then became apparent that while YES the snake IS feeding off of my actions in this false reality, it is OK? WHY is it OK? This is simple. I get something in return. TRULY existing on my own accord without the snake would be far less bearable than allowing the snake to leach off of me. In effect, the snake makes things easier. I do not actually have to do anything in this reality except eat once in a while, which is a fun way to pass the time. Every night I venture on while the snake sleeps, but even then the snake is allowing me just let everything flow easily. In closing, this false reality is more like a mutual relationship between the snake and the eye of truth and oneness. I chose the illusion, but only because truth is not as easy or tolerable as a big rotating lie.
"We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe." Johann von Goethe
OM is that which the entire universe is a continuous reverberation of. The primal sound of creation, the communicable voice of God, the final proof a yogi needs in order to have direct, transcendental knowledge of God rather than blind belief. Put quite simply, Om is life, it is the string behind the beaded necklace of existance. Om shanti shanti shanti Om namaste
It's just a fun word to say to relax and give off relaxing vibes. If you ever have kids, you can say it to them when they're climbing the walls and sometimes they'll stop and say it back to you, it's kind of cute. You're supposed to sort of pronounce it like, 'aum'. It also looks cool written in Sanskrit.
thats a pretty badass experience elfin1mf. when're you going to post the LSD part of your trip, prone420? i look forward to it.
