Dematerializing Solid Objects

The strangest experience I ever had was at a Grateful Dead concert at Laguna Seca in Monterey CA. I forget what year, but it was the show where they filmed the "Touch of Grey" video with the skeletons on stage.

My friend and I didn't have tickets, so we were walking around the outside perimeter of a 10' high chain link fence they had erected around the concert area to keep people like us out. We had each taken a mild dose of LSD about a half hour before, leaving it up to fate and miracles to see if we would find a way in. Perhaps a hole in the fence somewhere along the way.

I was walking along with the fence on my right, and my friend was walking alongside me on my left. We had gotten involved in a deep metaphysical conversation, a sure sign the acid was starting to kick in. At any rate I suddenly decided I was going to head into the show and soak up some music and dancing, and told him I'd see him later in the crowd somewhere. Then I turned right and started walking towards the stage.

I heard him shout "Hey!" and turned around... and the chain link fence was between us.

We spent a good while searching up and down for a hole or flap I could have accidently walked through, but we found nothing but solid fence for 30-40 feet either direction. My buddy said when I said I'd see him later, he turned to look and saw me on the other side of the fence walking away with my back towards him. When he shouted "Hey!' he said I turned around and my mouth dropped open.

To this day I can't explain it, other than the theory that I had completely forgotten that the fence was there, therefore it ceased to exist in my reality... so I walked through it because as far as I knew, it wasn't there. Some may attribute this to a hallucination, but the acid was mild and we were both experienced trippers who functioned well on much higher doses.

So... anybody have an explanation, or experienced anything like this before? Love to hear it.

Peace

 

yes..i have an explanation


you were high and your mind made it up ...and now you believe it actually happened

 

That's pretty interesting.

 

I mean sure, there's always that .000000000000000000000000001% of doubt, when ruling out any possibility (who knows, maybe Elvis did fake his own death, after being inspired by Stanley Kubrick's "the moon landing"). So I'm not even going to comment on whether or not this really happened. (Or the metaphysical questions of what reality is.)

But I will comment that whenever you are tripping, you can have some crazy levels of synchronicity and some awesome shared hallucinations (or realities?). I've two myself (both on shrooms)

Me and my sister stumbled into each other, and we both felt it as we sunk into each other's body like cartoon blobs, then separated again as we righted oursevles.

My friend and I had a conversation, for about a half hour, where neither of us finished a sentence, we just kept cutting each other off; whole subjects went unmentioned; and we completely understood each other.
I don't fully remember it, but here's a slight reenactment:
"but um"
"I know bu--"
"dude!"
"blew your min--"

 

I guess the "proof" would be that he was suddenly inside the fence and saw the concert without a ticket while his friend was still outside the fence and did not.

 

Not trying to prove anything, nor do I care if anyone believes it. Just sharing something strange that happened to me, putting the experience out there on a forum that is intended for exploring psychedelic/metaphysical theories.

I will say that if you knew me, you'd know that I'm well centered and not one to make up stories or believe in conspiracy theories. I've had many psychedelic experiences over the last 45 years, many involving massive doses and lasting long periods. Peyote trips in the desert, mushrooms in the forest, LSD in meditation, you name it. Nothing else like this has ever happened either before or after. This is one of the very few experiences that I haven't been able to explain logically. It intrigues me to this day and probably always will. :sunny:

 

I think this is a very special experience. Perhaps one meant for just yourself and your friend. It's possible! you must be pretty special for that to have happened to you. You are blessed!

 

Just to offer up another, less magical explanation - human memory is prone to gross reconstruction. I wish stories like this were true, but i highly doubt it went down the way you remember it. Makes for a good campfire story, though.

 

i'd call it teleportation of you rather than the fence being less
than solid . it's a space thing of dimensions , and i have experienced
it . perhaps one could learn to do it willfully ? an aspect of seamlessness seems important ... like dancing at one campfire then seamlessly you're dancing at another .

 

synchronicity, de ja vu? wtf man man i feel like i dreamed this, or was just thinking it this is real shit i cant explain it, why cant everyone jsut get together and figure out the right thing to do

 

thoughts are things we all are in our own realties creating it as we see fit, but everyone adheres to one giant PLAN what is it?


edit god i feel like such a tool ruining this thread

 

this is something ive been trying to practice visualizing what you want to happen then letting it drift into your subconscious while consciously forgetting it? we all need to evolve into this higher state it is our next evolutionary step and this is the YEAR something amazing is happening the truth will set us all free

 

its actually a pretty common experience from people who trip on lsd...it distorts their reality

 

lsd allows an emerging reality ,

you can
learn something and
make something of it

 

who says lsd is necessary for this to happen?

 

no one...but the guy who started the thread said he dosed a half hour before his reality got distorted

doesnt have to be lsd...theres many other drugs out there that will mess up your perception of reality just as well

 

i distort my own reality in my favor completely sober...

i could totally see myself passing through a wall, if idont know i should try it! but normally its takes some time like a week or two before i start seeing the changes i visualize

because it would suck if we had instant gratification and our thoughts materialized immediately... the universe gives us that time lapse to change

 

teleportation is not a reality distortion , but , right , not walking at all
would be .

 

you're right my sasquatch buddy says it's true (he's camera shy so don't ask)

 

could you elaborate?
wouldnt teleportation be similar to folding the fabric of the universe, our reality?

i bet aliens fly their craft with their mind, whats faster then light? thought...
