terrified of vomitting

I dont consider you to know what I've experienced either, so I will refrain from breaking your post down and leave it at that friend.
You've asked why Spirit doesnt appear to you, and when I tell you why you dont respond. Now I am responding for you Bill. Your a good cat but you are closing off any possibility that there is more than the fundamental 4 forces of nature and the primal dimensions between spacetime. Nothing is more fundamental than She is, and so long as you look for reasons and musical mathematical equations (which only explain singularities and individual particles, not the entire grouping of mass differentiated which we call dualistic physical/mental reality) you will not be allowed to see it. If you want to see my experience as a sort of, falling into place as the mind battles all other possibilites and rules them out thats fine, but you still have no idea what Im talking about and therefor, moot your point bro. Eat an ounce of dried Azurescens and come back and try to rationalize what you just attempted to explain. I completley agree with you that the mind is influenced and bewildered in the weak by the unkown, however dont think the unkown is knowable either.

Im referring to the experience that i have had of feeling like I need to assume a position. I have read and heard of this occuring to other trippers. When I trip and feel this same phenomenon, I take it as being more or less the same phenomenon. I have offered my interpretation of it. My interpretation involves only the things that we all accept from experience, and not something that we must have faith in.

Are you saying that I feel my compulsive meditative or seemingly 'ancient' positions because of my explaination, and you feel your compulsive positioning because spirits are guiding you? Or are you suggesting that I am misinterpreting my connections with spirits, in the same way that I am suggesting that you are misinterpreting your experience of teh world?

 

Im not directly suggesting that in order to bend to an arm being pulled behind your back, someone has to be pulling your arm.
I was a tad drunk last night, so I apologize if I assumed your post was entirely directed at me. Your last sentence would be what I am suggesting, though I wouldnt call it spirits. I acknowledge that this is within us already, the body being forced into positions is our own doing, however in an event such as what we are describing, our minds are not in control. Or at least, mine wasnt the only time it happened to me.
I guess what Im getting at will never be absorbed with any merit, because this wasnt being forced into an Asana or dyhana, when it happened for me it happened to my girlfriend as well, and it lasted a painfully long time. The both of us were being pushed into and out of control and truly, it was only part of the most bizarre experience I've come across. Must be why I get so uptight when discussing different perspectives surrounding this phenomena, because I hold it as something that was a turning point in how I allowed myself to confront God. Bill really the only beef I have with this recent post is the word faith. Only people who are unable to give into God need faith to appreciate Spirit, they use spirituality as a crutch and in some cases, for material profit. I mean, dont you need faith in what you believe we all accept from experience? Dont you need faith in your mind/body dichotomy to believe that you can make an accurate diagnosis for what you perceive as occurence within the mind? It is not even remotley as pathetic a faith as the majority of the worlds major religions succumb to. That is brainwashing, not faith. But faith is something that is present in every corner of the mind, without it reality flies apart and as us psychedelic users know, that is very uncomfortable.

 

So...are you saying you are going to be a father replay?

BTW: I have never felt nausea from LSD. I have had the urge to stretch or do yogo, but never felt forced into any positions.

 

Oh yea, well I already am a father, my son is about to turn 3 in Oct. But now we have a new baby on the way

 

Well that's excellent to hear. Although some people say 2 is more than twice as hard as 1, I've definitely heard a lot say that it's much easier the 2nd time around.

I think your almost-3-year-old will be happy to have someone to play with. Nothing against only-children, but I think you learn a lot from siblings and it helps make your parents' attention less intense.

Congrats.

 

Thank you friend I agree!

 

definitely, brothers and sisters are great (usually)
