Aspects of the Entheogenic Experience: Other

 

I can only begin to describe this experience as a conformation of multiple dimensions.  The smoking of the salvia seemed to allow my spirit to slide into alternate existence of myself while still being aware of this "reality" with the ability to look back into as well as listen in on my normal dimension/ physical reality.  As my spirit was called back to this dimension its passage between the two was much slower upon its return, allowing me to experience my spirits return while being able to look back to where I had just been.  A million thanks must be given to my sister who had to become my sitter with no warning, she just happened to come in as I was exhaling a cloud of smoke from 60X enhanced salvia.

My first time taking xtc was AMAZING!!!!!!

My skin felt like silk and every touch was orgasmic.

My thoughts were deeper than ever and when i spoke out loud it seemed like i was a spiritual god to my friends who were also under the influence of this powerful substance. Everything i said was right on with what they were feeling i just wanted to join hands and shout out to the entire world about how i was feeling; i just wanted to soak in all of the vibes that i was encountering.

I think the best way to describe it would be that i was in a state of compleate tranquillity, i had broken through all of the stressors of life and i was standing on the other side of this wall that had built up in the world today where people always critisize and find something wrong about what you do and what you say a world where people have regrets and doubts, a world where people dont always say what they feel because its not always right and where you live in fear not only of the enemies of your nation but your own goverment as well. And in this world that we of the present are living in it seems like no one can just let you be who you want to be and do the things that you wish to do; but while i was peaking on this incredible drug i was free of all that, and i can't even put into words how amazing it felt!!!!! before i rolled i always wonderded why the drug was called extasy; i had heard the word used in books and on television but never knew excatly what it meant and i always found it just a wired name for a drug; after rolling i finally figured it out. and it came to me that this is the most legitimently named drug out there. the reason that they call it extacy is because that is what it is, a little pill full of pure extasy! there have not yet been words to describe the shear joy that you accome to during the experience of this mind altering revolution, and i doubt anyone will ever be abel to pack so much emphasis into any form of something as miniscule as letters. but i believe that if everyone just let the experience reign over them then a blanket of peace and understanding would cover this earth and we would live in a world of love and understanding and in a world where your not judged for who you are; a world where everyone is free not only litterally but spiritually as well.

About 3 hours into my trip I was sitting with my friend in her back yard under many beautiful trees when i realized how connected the entire everything was (this was my first acid trip).  This realization was only amplified by the reality that we are "all" made from the same thing energy. I thought to my self, "since all is connected so beautifully and everything works out the only way it can and should,  maybe we are accually only observing our own memories because everything is already said and done." Think about it,  every second is gone before it ever really takes place,  its already a memory. So in a sense memory is the only reality. bend your mind around that one.

I think that the mind game is really the best aspect of tripping and the visuals are the icing on the cake.  When you can really come to  grips with the game, you come to grips with your trip and when that happens, you are free to explore all the dimensions of your being, and only then can you really find yourself.  "You cant know where your going if you cant see where or who you are."

Justice - zopiclone


I was sitting on a couch, with my eyes closed. I became "hollow," like my body was there but empty of everything inside. I felt like a shell of my normal physical self.

Then I felt an electrical type energy move from my feet, enveloping me and moving up to my head. It completely surrounded me and then went INSIDE of me through the crown of my head.

THEN it went INSIDE me, on the inner surface of my body outline. It went down the in-sides of my body, came up the inside of my legs again, then went out of my MOUTH and surrounded my outside body again.

THEN, once it had surrounded my outside, it started going back INSIDE through my NOSTRILS, coating the inner layer of my body again.

I got warmer and warmer as each layer built, like more and more blankets were being put on me. Suddenly I got a bit of a panicky feeling, so I pulled myself out of this and went to tell a friend what happened. I was a bit disturbed for a few minutes about this weird sensation.

I had read(actually, tried to read and then had to give up because they made no sense) these Persian mystical sacred texts when i was normally conscious. Then, soon after, while tripping, i picked up the same book and started reading again. THEY NOW MADE TOTAL SENSE, I WAS IN THAT OTHER STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS, THE SAME STATE THAT THE MYSTIC WAS IN WHEN HE WROTE THE WORDS THAT I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND BEFORE. All of the writing now felt perfectly clear and meaningful while tripping. Later on, when not tripping, reading the sacred texts again  brought a glimmer of the reality back that i had experienced, but it still had reverted to basic incomprehensibility. Back *in reality*, in my normal consciousness, the writings now made no logical or descriptive sense, and i was again not able to really understand them the way i could while tripping. But i'd known this already, anyway, that it was futile to attempt to describe the mystical state in mere words, to the normally conscious, because previously i'd personally attempted to describe to others(who had never tripped), my entheogenically induced mystical revelations. Now here i was, myself, at the same barrier, the divide between words and the supremely ineffable.

There was one point when I was lying on the ground looking up at the stars. Then I got up, walked about 30 feet and sat on a log. I lit a joint. Just as I lit it I was back on the ground looking at the stars. Then I was back on the log smoking the joint. This "flickering" from the log to the field and back again went on a number of times.  After that the entire world collapsed.

I was very sleepy but energized as well. Visions were everywhere. Through me, through the darkness. Everywhere. I was immersed in visions that were very colorful. My awareness shifted "down". That is the only way I can describe it. I had fragmented visions of reptiles. Different body parts. Skin, tongues, tails, eyes and more. I felt my point of reality assembly move into a place that was deep in me. A very old place. A reptilian place I call it now. I was deeply immersed in this reality for possibly an hour.

Bob Hanes - Psilocybin mushrooms


In a defiant manner I said "Yes". And clapped my hands together above my head. As soon as I did it I was instantly shooting through the universe not bound by time or space. I  remember being in a state of pure mental orgasm. I could see generations upon infinite generations both backwards in time for infinity and forwards in infinity. There was no such thing as time.

After several years of searching I finally got my hands on some mushrooms.  That same night I saw the largest orange moon that I have ever seen. It was very close to the horizon.  The synchronous timing of that celestial event along with me finding mushrooms made feel like this was meant to be and that this was the night to eat them.  Before taking the mushrooms I was already entering an altered state because of the synchronous events.  After taking the mushrooms I had the most spiritual experience of my life.  Since then, I have witnessed numerous 'coincidences' both while under entheogens and without.

I went back inside and I was starting to move past the peak. I decided to play guitar so I opened iTunes to play along with some Grateful Dead. I started the song "Sugaree" and when it came time for a guitar solo I began just exploding with creativity. My solos were none like when I am sober, I could feel the music and knew exactly where I wanted to go with my playing. It felt as though there were no barriers to my playing and I began to grow overwhelmed with joy. I was so excited during the time I was dancing intensely back and forth with my playing.

Aspect: synchronicity ! (?) Setting: five 20yr. old men,a group of mutual friends, sitting cross-legged around a "hearth" (5 stones arranged in a circle, with some wildflowers arranged in that; at the top of a hill, midmorning, mid-June, year 1967,the weather is cloudy-overcast(no sun).We drop Sandoz acid--the best! We're waiting for it to happen. This is my first acid trip! Nothing yet,we agree together.Still waiting. Then someone says "Let's eat an orange." He starts to peel the orange...then... the heavens open up ... an intense beam of sunlight streaks through a sudden crack in the clouds , directly, and only upon the orange...which turns an unearthly brilliant flourescent glowing color... coinciding just exactly at the first instant the peel is cracked open with the thumb pushing in...the rind oils spray out into the air in extreme slow-motion, and just...hang...there... sparkling, suspended, multi-faceted, and extremely brilliant...stopped in time! The breathtaking moment does finally end ,though, and we look at each other, double-taking to verify that incredible sight.We all saw the exact same thing in "other-reality" at exactly the same time. In the flash of that blinding, spellbinding, magical instant, the group had simultaneously entered the trip together. Thats synchronicity ! (P.S.--yes,the rest of the trip was great! And even now,40-odd years later,i'm happy to recall that time of beauty and insight.)

Moloko - LSD


I had my first trip a few days before my 15th birthday. I was only 80 pounds so my friends would only let me take half a hit. When it started to kick in I became very happy and couldnt stop laughing. My friend had a blanket over her window with pigs on it. The blanket looked like it was breathing. Everything looked like it was breathing. Everything WAS breathing. I had started to relise how much i missed my friend, Josh. He was everything to me and I hadnt seen him in about a month. I started to relise that I was in love with him.I miss him so much.

Aspect of experience: flying. To achieve this feeling, proceed as previously described in extreme sweat bath: time dilation. First go through the first round of hot/cold. Then while lying down with eyes closed outside the sweat-house , flying may happen; otherwise on the next round( doing the sweat at night is my favorite time to experience this)There is no intellectual component to this. Like an orgasm, you feel the effects , but its not thought oriented. It just happens, and it's great. Since i personally like to be in motion suspended within an infinite sea of mysterious darkness, the experience is fun for me. The ultimate paradoxical mystery of the cosmos always is apparent to for me while flying like this in the dark. Infinity does exist, timelessness, and spacelessness exist---without theory, dogma , credo or ultimate explanation. I guess my point is that the "flying" has its own intrinsic merit. You do not need to see anything or to fly anywhere as a d! estination involved with flying for the experience feel valuable. And please take note of this: being in a natural setting, at night,with fellow like minded participants, will greatly facilitate your mind-state and receptivity .( you can do this alone,also; but if you have fears (eg. of the dark et.,), they will tend to get in the way without the "support" of companionship). Please try to be quiet and reflective--even reverent, when approaching this,("the extreme sweat bath )for a fulfilling experience.I've had hundreds of experiences as described above, and, by the way, i also love entheogens.

I know this is going to sound a bit odd, so I figured it would fit in this category. When I tell people this, they usually think I'm joking - but I'm not. This isn't something that happened in my headspace so much much as it happened in my head. During two different trips I felt this sensation in my forehead/frontal lobes that felt like pop rocks exlpoding. It lasted for a few minutes each time and only occured once during each trip. I have always wondered if it was neurons firing or what else it might have been...

This is gonna sound way crazy but, i got to take atvantage of this social networking BOOM. I just recently listened to Red Ice Creations Radio and the guest was Steve Willner and they were talking about the Ouroboros.

I can remember exactly the feeling! time and time again , it's gonna sound strange but, if you've ever looked at the Ouroboros. The feeling of Salvia feels like the Ouroboros!

When your coming off a Salvia trip, when your coming to i feels like your getting your identity back,interesting, maybe thats why 1st timers get such a laugh attack coming out of the trip, their glad as hell to be themselves once again! lol

Life is such a mystery
