in a trance....
do not discriminate..do not discriminate..do not discriminate. make no weakness become you - sentimentality, ego, hatred. find limitations, and they are yours. scale limitations and you're free. you're not bound. life and death two sides of same coin. whether the world is profoundly beautiful or manically depressing is all your perception. realise that and transcend it. beyond good and evil - dont know it. realise it. whatever that can be reformed is in you, so stop the relentless "i can change it all" delusions and reform yourself. systematic reasoning, theorising and postulating based on "fact" can only go so far. do not follow nature, defy it. aaaahhh my blake, venerable schopenhauer - i bow to thee. krishnamurthi, vivekanada, bohm,einstein.......VEDANTA...pillars of true thought. the only unchanging in this vortex of change...
..i wish to embrace the above from the bottom of my "thoughts"

indeed! man is so fortunate to be what he is... what a miracle that we can think and possess introspective powers... finally, after years and years of the trials and errors of evolution in this laboratary called earth!! hypothesising that i had to place my money on a wager near the cosmogony.. and if someone had proposed that these funny neo-ape called humans would exist, thulp on pizzas, philosophize , screw, play shtud level football , play games like FEAR and do a countless number of mad things . Whew! All the odds were stacked against our existance and whatever is.. by a big big way.. aren't we are the products of 15 billion years of darwinian mechanism slogging it out?? And then when we actually get to live this 1 and only life ever (ever (ever)), we allow ourselves to be chafed by the relatively insignificant and end up 'sad' haha.. It's funny, ain't it!
Oh man i'm confused as to what i want to do and how i want to live.. i think as of now i don't want to be remembered by the masses of tomorrow .. uh huh no way.. i'll be dead by then... gotta make most of life by having a hedonistic sybarite's existance!!
interesting thoughts really!! beauty of introspection, philosophy and inexplicable insights. as far as the "hedonistic imperative" is concerned, i am not so sure :D.
as long as there is this inexhaustible supply of 'harmless' psilocybin, i am all for it :D
Hmmm... so where do you see your life heading to then?
I guess the question boils down to:
Will you care how you spent your life when you're runnin outta time in your deathbed??
I don't think i will; i mean how does it matter? I ask, now that i'm a dead confident pantheist :)
And as for psilocybin
, really man, they should do some corporate research on how to make it harmless and for a custom made 'high' and tailor made time of high etc etc. instead of wasting time running after the cartels and banning it with a most oblivious futility :|
i see it pointless to even think about the future as everything is now. whenever we think about past and future, it's all about bringing them down to the present percpetion. It's all about the present. Time dissolves.
recalling "lost for words":
To martyr yourself to caution
Is not gonna help at all
cause there'll be no safety in numbers
when the right one walks out of the door
As for the biochemical neuropsychiatric research goes, i am all for developing eutopic drugs :D
if any of you guys have had any transpersonal ego-busting mystical experiences from whatever means (drugs,insight etc), i would very much like to hear it.
transcening? yes i think so... that was the forbidden, the feared, but yet the shamelessly violated (albeit just once), the k-zone.
(copy pasted)
At dawn on the beach on a late autumn morning, as I sat in silent meditation, I felt a tingle cover my skin and my ego shot straight out my head.
Right out the crown I felt it go, and what remained surprised me. For what is left when you drop Yourself? What is left when you are empty?
I looked at the sea and at the sky. I looked at the clouds and seagulls and sand. I saw the same thing everywhere: Stillness within everything – and Stillness is Stillness is Stillness.
When the words are dropped and meanings forgotten, the core of everything is the same. Boundaries fade, the illusion revealed, and the One becomes radiantly apparent.
Learn what you are, and be such.

great! who is pindar? if interested, check these out in case you havent already:
1)http://www.matrixmasters.com/podcasts/
(On what the best psychedelic researchers think right now)
2)http://www.erowid.org/
(A comprehensive knowledge on mind alterants plus a vast collection of personal experiences)
One realises how "closed" we are when a majority of us think that mind-alterants are only for the morally degraded sub-species of the planet. Cha, fie on such idiocy.
Hi Wicker,
You in Maryland?Doing you Masters? Got a friend of mine there.Name of Rajesh.Ever come across him?He doing it in Physics.
Oh,and should have guessed the link was snokin skull :-)
hey madhu,
No man, do not know of a rajesh. Pretty scattered,not fully connected departments you see. Will tell him if i meet him.
just came across that.. pindar some greek poet, didn't know myself, just came across that snippet..
yeah man, knew abt erowid buit not the first link, pretty cool...
off the topic, look at some relations i got to know of recently;
opiates class drugs : create a shitload of dopamine in the brain. And due to this sudden baragge, the dopamine receptors in the brains get overloaded and start dying off, slowly.
This leads to requirement of more of the drug the next time to get the same high as before... higher molality needed due to the lower no. of receptors... and hence the tolerance;
But the worst part is, you start losing your interest in most wordly pleasures due to the relative impotency of your receptors... enslaved almost..
Fuck heroin is deadly.
To be avoided at all costs..
yeahh man...dopamine resistance is one thing. I believe serotonin resistance is even more deep like in coke. Even in MDMA, tolerance builds like shit. Zuk personal experiences with them though.
