it just comes down to ' i dont know'. dont know anymore. just shatteres those beleifs, and slowly you can think things thro over again. just leaving me "open' to all the possiblieties of everything, see i can see there are possibilites know matter how stick i was in my views before i took shrooms or acid. so i cant be sure about anything. cause no matter how much you beleive somthing to be 100% real, doesnt mean it is real.
you cant just cancel out the existenze of somthing, just because in your mind, it doesnt seem probably or somthing.and then telling your sefl with 100% certainty that it cant exist, jsut cause your mind told you it was im-probable
oh man... how painfully I have come to learn this in the past 6 months. I still greatly enjoy McKenna though... but like, he's pecuilar in that his stuff isn't so much really philosophy, it's more like prophecy.
thats all "real" is being aware of this just means, you have the ability to make things real even for other people
I've noticed that with LSD I may be able to speak with much more mental clarity and getting my point across is a simple task, whereas while on magic mushrooms I tend to be overwhelmed with my thoughts and become confused when trying to deliver a message. But I feel that concepts of philosophy and/or spirituality come naturally to my mind at an equal rate and with the same frequencey of occurence during intoxication on both substances. Basically I just feel that the mind is opened on both of them to the same extent, at least in my experience. One thing I've noticed though is that when I have the epiphanies and revelations during an LSD trip, during my attempts to spit out my visions and thoughts with words I become obsessed over the slightest details, and if I am trying to paint a picture in someone else's mind I fumble over a certain word to describe something and end up spending so much time trying to recall the words that I completley forget what I was talking about in the first place! :tongue: Acid conversations typically dart all over the universe and it's funny because we are all trying to describe the same thing in the end.
omg dude i just did that! i hated it! i took a big drag of salvia and blacked out(no really but i lost perception of reality) and was living the life of something i cant remember( go figure) and when i was starting to come around my senses it felt as if the objects world was coming to an end and its whole life had been a lie.. i had a bad trip. but yeah the feeling is horrible and the so is the taste. im never doing salvia again
