Disagree w McKenna there. Separate entities. Psychedelics can be an aid, but I think with proper practice you move away from surface level "tripping" down a windier path Think he was saying it can definitely be a tool to get you there used in conjunction...I agree.

Classic. We have two renowned meditation centers and a yoga center nearby. Some of the douchiest people around. One guy i worked for lives the mantra. Mellowthefukout bumper sticker. Buddhist and Hindu slogans everywhere. Angriest most passive aggressive dickweed I'd ever met.. Strange the way alternative lifestyle types are That's a shame...must be in it more for a social agenda...my guess.

Thanks for posting that. He was a great storyteller. His description of satori...of the (((NG!))) moment is perfect. Reflecting on his point, many master teachers have said the most profound Truths always come in paradox...and that is certainly one he discussed here...only when we surrender to emptiness are we full....able to truly live in the moment. 'It is THIS moment...this is 'it' now' -A. Watts Good stuff.

aww..what a great kid...nice cathedral amethyst kid!
Present awareness is empty, open, and luminous; not a concrete substance, yet not nothing. Empty, yet it is perfectly cognizant, lucid, aware.…. the heart of all practices is included here, in simply sustaining the luminous nature of this present awareness….If you search elsewhere for something better, a Buddha superior to this present awareness, you are deluding yourself.~ Jamgon Kontrul Rinpoche

Meditation should be to move past the illusion of self. Psychedelic drugs is catering to the desires of the self. Gotta move past that. Yearning for enlightenment. A quick fix. Tm for sure has at it's most shallow "self" improvement aspects. But it goes deeper than that. Spark up some deemz...blast past Self into the Void...ya just might get slapped though....I hear tell it ain't pretty ive been to the void one to many times.. worst was i had these entities screaming at me YOUR DEAD!!!!! as i bounced from the colored dna spiral containing words i just can never quite make out,, off the void the upside after the trauma wore off was i became far more focused on enlightenment thru being, living the now, meditation ect. it really kicked started my desire to ascend vs DIE its like my higher self sent a shock wave thru my whole being

one of the issues im working thru is the "what next".
i can get to some pretty blissful states pretty easy, especially outside in my garden... grinning like a thought free idiot. fully in the now but the what next slowly creeps in my being as bliss becomes simply what is
did /does God have this problem?
when doing a guided meditation i often focus on what it would be like to be infinite eternal awareness, move beyond thinking and just state of being,, its hard to describe perceiving differences in states without really using the thinking mind

The time during the entire month of December was the most amazing 'glimpse' yet...Part of the journey I most get now is to let that go even....and just follow where my spirit leads next w/o being attached to a particular outcome...in the meantime, presence and developing in meditation..as you say...sky-like mind....is beautiful when it opens up.

for sure.. sometimes i just cant take the bliss, i dont know how to interpret it as my thinking mind tries to reassert itself and define the experience comparatively.
since the aforementioned void experience i as well have been making connections, really working on reducing the egoic ties that bind and having some success. i was in a pretty dark period of recovery for a while but ive moved on to being grateful for the experience and using it as a tool to grow and expand my awareness.
one hurdle i face is ill be doing Yoga or just sitting in bliss in my back yard and i become self consciousness of looking silly or goofy being in a weird yoga pose or just giggling. in the end what do i care if my neighbors wonder what the hell im doing.. most of them know im not quite mainstream america.
perhaps the Buddha, the gargoyles, year round father christmas and various occult symbols on my front porch give it away
