Psychedelics

In this video I discuss my experience with psychedelics, their relationship to spirituality, and the hypocrisy of the law regarding them.

And what of the self-transforming machine elves?

@niriop

Ah, the fractal elves - I've always seen them as sub-aspects of our consciousness, projected into our conscious mind as distinct entities during a trip.

+1 on all this. I tried shrooms on occasion & LSD once, and I found it very positive. I wouldn't try to base my understanding of reality on it, but the experience does somehow add perspective to how we see our place in the world. Being able to step outside of reality, outside of our normal thinking process and visit a different kind of consciousness is not something we can do any other way. Like seeing that photo of earth, and KNOWING the ground you stand on is not flat, in a whole new way.

hsve you ever read Be Here Now by Ram Dass?

Oh god my first time on mushrooms....lololol

[robbergable]

I find it funny you felt the urge to use the 84 when introducing yourself.

[stillcountingsheep]

Abrahamic religions are main components in the prohibition of drug use because the religions emphasize individuality and our separation from other species and the environment, while mushrooms re-establish the opposite. Feelings of universal community don't jive with state creation or other forms of forced assimilation and killing.

I recently wrote a whole paper on the bioethical implications of prohibiting psychedelic use, and I gotta say, this video makes me happy.

@tempo3rd "how does one know that they aren't going to do something stupid?"

Make sure you're not a total idiot before taking a psychedelic.

[tempo3rd]

Isn't the problem with psychedelics that your judgment is impaired or you even lose awareness of what you're doing and do something dangerous like get into a car or make a baloney sandwich out of the five sausages at the end of your arms? Not that I've heard of people doing this (not in the case of mushrooms anyway) but how does one know that they aren't going to do something stupid?
