Rant for the "LSD will find you" people

ok, the people who say “lsd will find you when you are ready for it” etc. and the “it’s everywhere you just have to know where to look” people. I know what you mean, obviously effort is one of the factors here, but lets cut the new age spiritual smugness. It comes across as sounding like you are somehow more worthy of the experience and thus you are rewarded with a connection. The lsd has found you since you were ready and have paid your dues to the lsd gods.

I am certain that there are people more worthy of lsd than many of those who have easy access to it. Please stop pretending like there is some supernatural force granting some people permission to lsd and not others (until certain requirements are met). This sort of fatalistic approach could be like saying that the people who were bombed in Hiroshima had it coming, or that the Jews were at least partly (if not wholly) responsible for bringing about the Holocaust. Like saying “they died because they weren’t ready to live any longer, it was just their time, their karma”.

Obviously, with lsd, location is a big variable. Not everyone lives in cities where raves can be found, or where festivals come through. For example, acid cannot be found in Antarctica simply by being ready for it. Would you read “Acid Dreams” a couple of times and then the lsd would find you there?

Again I know what you’re saying, a lot of people whine (and I may be one of them ) about not being able to find acid when it could be right in their neighborhood and you want to stress the effort variable because that’s the one they can do something about. However, don’t act like it’s all effort or supernatural forces at play. Please consider the possibility that you are just lucky in this respect.



Peace and Love,

 

Truth!

 

LSD literally isn't in my neighborhood. Doesn't matter who you know, you have to do some travel to even get close.

 

this all may be true for someone without the common knowledge of where LSD resides, but for most this is not true.

i have no connections for acid what so ever. at all. Ive never had a dealer or any friends that have sold acid. but all i have to do is drive about 45 minutes to 3 hours away from where i live, once a month, and it finds me. this also goes for mushrooms. i don't have to ask around, i just drive, and it comes to me.
but like i said i have the common knowledge of where it resides.... not just in my city/state but in everyones.

 

Come to Brown County then. I doubt it will "come to you". You have to take a 25-45 minute drive to get it here, unless Peas or someone bought a crap-load and is selling some. (I have to get it for my friends because I am the only person who knows where it is. It's tedious.)

 

i don't know about towns... find your nearest city.... cities are plentiful

 

willy wonka, I would love for you (or me ) to test your claim in my state. You, being located in PA, are likely very close to several major cities which is fortunate.
Regarding "common" knowledge of where lsd resides...I find this hard to believe because if there were such knowledge, it wouldn't be a well kept secret for long. Small operations can be kept secret fairly easily, but something such as you suggest (encompassing all major cities) would get out.
Plus the last bit of advice you gave was to "get well established within the community". This suggests connections, granted this was regarding finding lsd via the internet, but still something doesn't add up.

 

um i think that ur takin it too seriously, see no one wrote out any guidelines of what you must have done for lsd to come to u... its not like that. more, its more of a statement about all things, that your life goes on by its own design, and much of the time, you are not aware of this ever unfolding design because you are blinded by your ego and your personal desires and spend most of ur time fulfilling them (i want to watch tv, i want new shoes, i want to take lsd...). and although you may momentarily satisfied, it keeps you stuck in a static routine of suffering and satisfaction. this is a very buddhist take, but either way the point is when you are not controlled by your habits, you get much clearer look at the larger picture, your life's design, and things will come to you naturally. and lsd happens to be a drug which by its nature breaks down your normal patterns of behavior, and gives you a glimpse of the larger picture, the interconnetedness in life which cannot be denied. it is a sacrament that is capable of having a major effect on your life, unlike your next cigarette or next pair of shoes. therefore, it is especially subject to this idea of letting it come, because to stress out over finding it is sort of contradictory to what it does. and often times, when you go into a trip with such a strong ego, it can be hard to let go. so theres nothing wrong with wanting to find lsd, and yes you can search for lsd and find it. but in my experience the times where i've been desperate and anxiously searching for it i either dont find it, its a research chemical, or i have a difficult experience. and usually as soon as i forget about it and enjoy just walking around, someone i know will come along and drop it on my tounge.

 

MarkW1....

"LSD wiill find you" isnt a comment in regards to anything spiritual.

It's in EVERY state and almost EVERy city; you just have to know where to look and the right crowd to ask; its gone underground to a certain extent so it's a little harder to find. But no one ever said that you have to have an established "worth" to eat acid...that doesnt make any since. This rant is rather stupid. Just look for it and if you look hard enough youll find it. And if it isnt in your immediate area...Go to a festival. If you really want it you WILL find it.

 

psychmike, yes, I know. You say "If you really want it you will find it", this is what I agree with for the most part and this is what my OP was about. I don't mind people saying this, it's just the whole "being ready for it and it will find you" nonsense that I have problems with (and the "its everywhere" generalization).

Tumbledown, are you saying wait till it comes you you? Or, try to find it? You kinda say both. If this is what you're saying it's sort of a cop out answer. I agree that nobody should get obsessed or anxiety ridden in their quest for anything, however how much effort should be put forth (if any)? Where do you draw the line in this regard?

 

I think thats complete bullshit, that LSD is supposed to magically "find you."

I mean, lets say you work at a real-estate office and live in very wealthy suburbia. How the fuck is LSD supposed to find you, if you dont even look? Bottom line is, it probably wont.

LSD is probably available here right now, but its something I dont mess with that often. If you really want some, start looking, and it may be a total bitch where you live, but I can basically guarantee that LSD is almost everywhere here in the U.S. You should try going to concerts, outdoor festivals, etc. Anyplace where you know people are gonna be dropping acid. You'd be surprised how many connections you can find in situations like that.

It is really frustrating trying to find it, I remember when I was in high school it would take MONTHS of looking before we found a kid who knew a kid, who knew a guy, etc. Like I said, I'm not crazy into it, but I do know it is mad shitty when you are really looking into trying it and cant get ahold of any. Try to be patient, I guess, you will get it eventually. Try to associate more with people who would be into it. I know you get pissed when people say its everywhere, but honestly it is.

Anyways, I hope you have some luck

 

Thanks

 

Oh my god, I've been waiting to rant every since I have joined this forum. Honestly, if you hang around with alot of pot/mushrooms doers, the subject will probably come up at some time or an other. I have found it to come in a wave every so often. The dude is out right now! It will be coming some time within the next couple of months. I salute you for making this topic!

 

Yea, I can vouch for that. I live in very wealthy suburbs of Philly and you really just have to know people to get acid. Theres no way it will just "find you". The only place acid has "found me" is a festival.

 

lsd comes to you when you are ready. ofcourse you have to fuckin look. but if you dont find it, it means your not ready. and when you do, than you are ready.

lsd shouldnt be done on a spare of the moment thought. "oh, i think ill try acid, picks some up the next day, oh fuck, i had a bad trip, i knew nothing about set n setting, or done any research, have any respect.

or you decide to take acid, you look, you dont find any, you research, you get obsessed, you spend hundreds of hours reading trip reports, you learn everything about acid, you make a correct judgment abuot acid, you become ready for acid, then suddenly when you are ready full and well, what do you know, your friend rings you up and says i got some acid. and you have a wonderfull trip. you have respect for acid.

 

I agree with you about the need for respecting acid, and this will indeed lead you to having a wonderful trip. But this has nothing to do with access to lsd or "lsd finding you". Notice how nobody says "magic mushrooms will find you when you're ready"...and why do you think this is? I think it's not because they aren't magic enough, it's because they are easy for anyone to grow. Again in order to have a truly great and insightful trip it helps to have respect(and be "ready"), but this is not required for the acquisition of the physical mushrooms. The mushrooms don't find you, the San Pedro doesn't find you, the acid doesn't find you, and neither do any of the RCs. Right?

 

i used to sell acid. this is how i would do it... - i only sold to friends. if one of their friends wanted some they would have to pick some up for them. some friends of mine did not know that i had access to lsd - this is because they were not 'in my opinion' ready for it(the last thing i need is someone getting all fucked up on acid trying to blame me for fucking them up!) this method of mine kept me very safe. most acid dealers like to be as safe as possible and usually dont need the money as bad as a crack dealer would. so they have to feel good about who they are selling to. usually it is too risky to sell to someone you have never met before - not saying that this never happens because i am sure it does. i would say that most dealers like to meet any new customers through a friend or one of their good customers - kinda like you need a referral.

having said all that i hope some of you get the picture. in most cases you have to know the right people before you get any acid connection. when you do find some most likely it will go though so many middle men that you pay too much.

in my experience you have to deserve the connection before you find it - or in other words, the acid will find you when you are ready. it is just another way to look at it or another way to say you have to deserve it. of course there are exceptions to all rules and one could most definitely have access to lsd and be completely ill prepared - but i would say these occurrences are rare. in most cases lsd finds its way to the people who need it the most.

here is a famous quote - "when the student is ready the teacher appears."

 

well said.

 

LSD comes to you in the sense of karmic equation, and wether you have an enjoyable experience or a nightmare is reliant upon the same factors.
Nobody is claiming that LSD magically finds you, it is understood in the sense that if you dont deserve it you wont find it, and if you do then your trip will be most painful, which in this case, is much worse than simply not finding it, fulfilling the deserved reaction
Simple as that really.

 

lol... "rolling around in a pile of hay"... good place for a pig i guess...lol...

with your attitude you would probably get pricked by a needle in the hay stack.
