I realized why I never visit here anymore

I understand your point your trying to type Peter. And the way I look at reality, you are right. God is the conclusion and She is not waiting for any of us, it is us who are waiting to go back to Her. She is eternity, we are the illusion of time. When we transcend time we taste the eternity of now. But the ego must be silenced first, and for some people LSD helps aid in that process. For others, well, they have more work to do initially before they go ahead and dettach themselves from that which they believe provides for their existance.

 

if you fail to learn and grow from your trips you will feel that way.

you have to take something from your trip. you have to 'allow' lsd to change you.

most people usually wind up with your current outlook as they stop tripping. it has everything to do with who you are and your failure to use the drug in a way that is truly beneficial and has nothing to do with the drugs being 'crap'.

lsd is not for everyone and for a long time i have thought that lsd is not what neodude1212 is looking for.

 

thats not a bad perspective to gain and you got it from acid..so its not all that bad.

 

it isn't that it didn't teach me anything....it taught me loads, but now that it's been so long, I thought i've been living in that new life that LSD taught me, but as I look back at the things I've been doing, I say, what is so great about this?

What I can remember is just a fleeting memory. I had a totally new outlook on life, but as I look back, it all seemed so pointless and insignificant. if I could warp back to november and you ask me, there is no way in hell I would use the words "pointless" and "insignificant" to describe my current life and recent trip. But that is what it is to me now.

and if something that profound and monumental can fade so fast, then what is life anyways? I thought I had things so figured out, but here I am again in this same old rut, and how dumb was it to think that a trip was going to help me out in the long run. So was I just fooling myself? Was I just full of delusional shit?

 

"Work on your connection to God and you will never lose the magic"

this seems full of truth

 

Thank's Kizen.
I've found that when you come to the point where life is dull and repetitive, all it takes is a search for Love and for Self-discovery to make everything dance into a beautiful play for you to watch go by
Namaste

 

I know!

sometimes it feels all my life is me/something drifting back and forth from connection

but we are always connected really

 

The only thing that I know is real is that which I have experienced.

Everything else I have to take on faith, and I am an atheist, so you can imagine how much that concept appeals to me.

La Experiencia, senor. - Terence Mckenna

 

yes, your experiences are real, but are your perceptions and understandings of that experience the true reality?

or did you walk away building an illusion?

 

exactly. being separate is just as much a part of universal oneness as being connected

 

Go and learn what the real world is like kiddo for a few more years and you will not have that optimistic attitude towards society and 90% of people.

 

hmm well that suxs. i think most peoples problem would be that after they take a psychedelic and experience some huge revelation and have this profound experience they rarely follow through with what at the time they said they would, such as taking some shrooms and during the peek saying im gonna start doing good in school and then afterwards not change anything about how hard they try in school

 

i dont beilive they create fake things, other than the visuals obviously those arnt real. but all of the profound thoughts and a certin ammount of the euphoria are real, that's what the drug does for you, it allows you to lose your ego and let all the thoughts in.

 

i think for me it comes to point where you have to just stop thinking so deeply and philosphically and stop searching and asking questions about the 'void' and about 'god', and just focus all your thoughts on the 'real' whats in front of you, your life, the sun, the trees, thinking and searching your brain for answers and you will be depressed and unhappy because there are no answers in there, you can not take these drugs and find answers that are real.

its all just in our heads.

 

cause iv seen both sides. just a few months ago i wouldve said the complete opposite. my beleifs have been shifted and sifted around and around.
but having done a decent amount of acid for my age and now having stopped and not had any for some time, i can see again from a more 'landed' aproach and pull together a new perspective about all of what has happened and what lsd did do and has done.

in a way lsd is one fucking psychologcially addictive drug, cause in certain people it gives the feeling of like having to take it forever. live the psychdelic lifestyle.
its just so amazing. but i dont know whats what still. i guess im working things thro like most people, it takes your whole life, but thats the journey.

 

That's a pretty bold assumption, dont you think Mr.Writer?
I mean everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but how can you know what he's seen so far in life? And how can you tell someone else how they will feel about society in the future? Thing's like this are typically better left unsaid because your not teaching him anything, nor attempting to help heal society, but rather contributing to it's negative aspects

 

I don't think people are entitled to their opinions. I think people are bound by their opinions. what ppl are entitled to is truth, however it's received.

 

Well of course Burn lol but this thread as of yet hasent turned cosmic minded yet :tongue: It's a free speech forum and I was only touching upon the basicis of individual expression, regardless of it's basis in reality or illusion

 

ah. I see I've tripped over semantics.

but still if the OP wasn't bound by his opinions he wouldn't be in his current slump. The truth acquisition I speak of has to do with questioning one's own opinions even if they seem like they have full integrity, but he obviously is questioning his opinions, which is why i originally thought he was just going through another of life's cycles, and he'd be embraced by truth as a result

 

At least you got the right forum for such action
