I see people giving prescriptions in this comment section. I am but a humble seeker. I can not claim to give anyone access to the best knowledge, or even lasting knowledge. Neither, I believe, can any of our fellow commenter. Anyone saying "you must integrate these lessons," or "ignore all else and read these books," are not wrong. They are giving advice that, to them, sounds good and wholesome. Perhaps they are.
However, I would push back against such dogma (and it is dogma even if it is only propagated by a single individual). Here are some of my own personal lessons from my psychedelic explorations:
Do what you are curious about, no more and no less.
Listen to the advice of your peers. Take it as freely as they give it. Yet, if you find no sense in it, also know you are not bound by it.
Be curious. Explore and research the things you do to your body, to the best of your ability, before you do them.
Keep an open mind and an open heart.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be kind to yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars. You have a right to be here. (Max Ehrmann, Desiderata)
Finally, I believe my best approach to the psychedelic experience is to treat it as a new aspect of philosophy. To me, it is about the art of living well with myself.
I love all you people. Be safe and be kind.
- Jerrrry 3y agoAgreed, I didn't mean to trivialize DMT, I shoulda prefaced it by saying I tripped last night, 75mg vaporized, and managed a 16 minute torrent of geometry without ego death, which was unique (stim/dizzos). Really, it may be the best choice for _readers here_, given it's short length, penultimate intensity, less (statistically) common cases of HPPD, and massive perspective change. That is, after all, how it has earned its informal title as the "business mans trip," Regarding the chances of HPPD, I have seen far more people (even adjusted for LSDs and DMT rarity relatively) blame acid for their mental discontinuity then DMT. LSD makes you feel like you had an eureka moment; DMT makes you think you had it then forgot it, as it's nature. Shrooms....are a dice roll, especially comparivitly
- jurynulifcation 3y agoI've never heard it called the business man's trip, but I love that. Totally agree with it. It's part of why I'm so enamored with DMT as a substance. Coffee-sized psychedelic, imo. Also, thank you for engaging with me as productively as you have been. I appreciate the good spirit of your messages; looking back at some of mine, I wish I had taken the time to write them more personably.
- Physkal 3y agoDo you have a blog?
- jurynulifcation 3y agoI do not, but I've considered making one before... this might be the question that gets me to do it. If I may ask, what about the post moved you to ask?
- Physkal 3y agoYour tone is.. disengaging. In a supercharged world where words are weaponry, I Just felt welcomed.
