No doubt...this is one of THE MOST influencing trip reports I've ever read. Had it not been for your report, I wouldn't have been open about taking LSD....
Definitely worth the bump. Happy Anniversary!

Wow,I have chills now. Reading that really brought me back to that place. I really don't have any words......don't need them.  Seriously brother, I'm tearing up right now. That's how powerfully your trip report has affected me.
I've been reminiscing a lot lately; it's also been years for me since I've last been to that place. Thanks for reminding me!
Be well & live in the Light my friend.

I read this report and I was totally inspired by it. Although I have never taken LSD (plan to in the near future), I think I might be able to help.
The part of the story that most stuck out to me was the bit about the first memory. It gave me chills and I really loved it. Although it is sad that you could never make it back to the same place, I think I know why.
I thought about it a lot, and it is because you are still alive.
That experience is you breaking a major barrier toward your realization of the Ultimate Truth of the universe. The barrier is yourself. It is your ego. Ego-splitting experiences and ego death is the greatest experience you can have in life. I have tripped on mushrooms twice and am currently cultivating my first batch  . I find that these 'trips' are can be more appropriately named Near-Objectivity Experiences. And yes I just made that up. All of our life is spent in the realm of the subjective, the ego. It is produced in the brain and manifests as a mind. Objectivity, however, is God. It is all love, all patterns, all colors, shapes, music, and light. It is every frequency working together at the same time to make a perfect light.
The closest you get to a Near-Objectivity experience is of course your first memory, one that is not clouded with any knowledge of the world and the ego. It is a moment of pure bliss which psychonauts such as yourself strive to experience and understand. In the womb, there is no knowledge of bad, only love and warmth. There is no person there, just a soul.
Acid showed you this memory that has been forgotten in the growth and development of your brain. What a beautiful gift.
But besides that, here is where I think you were unable to reach that state again. You haven't died yet. The only way to get that close to objectivity again is in complete ego death. The death of your body. Since you have experienced it at birth and during this extraordinary one-of-a-kind acid trip, the only way to do it again is to die with love in your heart and hope that you will remember it in your next life. But most of us don't. We forget so soon as the ego clouds our mind with worries and distraction. We become infinitely complex people as our souls remain perfectly pure and beautiful, hidden from plain view.
Psychedelics bring this back. Psychedelics are the closest to being your pure soul as you can without actually dying. Since we are both alive, there is no way we can know exactly what it is like to be an infinite immortal soul, but someday we all will. This is why I welcome death. There is no fear in me of what the next realm will hold. We move on from a life of infinite wonder to a timeless dimension of divine truth, love, and light.
This realm, of the objective, is a space where there is no multiplicity any more. There is only One. One moment, One universe. All are connected at the same time. This space is God itself. Everything that ever happened, every moment of purity and realization of bliss exist simultaneously in an infinite fractal of experiences and information and frequencies.
And then, I expect, we return. We are reincarnated to experience only one level of the fractal. One tiny subjective piece of the enormous objective Universe. Our mortal bodies are limited by our senses; limited by the amount of information we can process in one lifetime. Our collective immortal self, as God is all knowing, all-inclusive. There is no discrimination, no fear of the Other, just a symphony of souls and lifetimes of discovery meeting each other for the first time.
In distant eras, Near-Objectivity was discovered through meditation, prayer, and even just meeting another human being. I find that when you really genuinely get to know a person, it is almost a psychedelic experience. You hear their stories, learn their past, and for an instant lose some of yourself there. In a small way, the two of you are now closer to being part of the One, the Objective God.
Thank you for reading this and I hope that someday, somewhere, this helped someone because I love you and I cant wait to meet you.

I've been reading lots and lots of trip reports in this forum and have to say this is the best I've ever read. It's insane how you can write with such clarity and accuracy. I've only tripped once on LSD and, even though I didn't get to your level, I can associate with so many things you described...
Quote:
Help on the Way said:
The flood of thoughts was truly incredible, and soon I was completely lost in my mind. The analytical part of my brain was working in overdrive. I would think of an idea, and my mind would start over analyzing it. For each idea, ten different subtopics related to it would appear. My brain would start analyzing every subtopic, and then for each there would be 10 new sub-subtopics. It would continue like this for a while. And suddenly I would be back to the same original idea that I had started thinking about!!! I had made a circle! And then, just as it had done the first time, my brain would break that original idea up, forming subtopics again. And then break those subtopics up again. Eventually, as I flew down the restless river of thought, I was once again back where I had begun. The process repeated itself over and over. I slowly began to become aware of this pattern. And my brain then started to analyze this pattern, breaking it up into subtopics, and then sub topics of the subtopics. And eventually I was once again back at the original idea! I was analyzing the way that I was analyzing! I was thinking about thinking about thinking!
This. During the come down I felt my brain tired, like it ran out of fuel. I had thoughts over thoughts that would all come back to the original one and my short term memory was gone, I would forget what I was thinking of in less than a minute.I tried to explain to my friends what my mind was going through while and after tripping and it was just impossible but you explained it perfectly!
I'm going to trip on LSD again and I want it to be like yours. It seems like an unforgettable life changing day. Thank you so much for sharing it with everyone!

Thanks for the bump, the comments, and the excellent input.
That trip was so strange. I do feel as though I reached something beyond myself, far beyond my ego. I remember letting go and becoming one with everything, with the Light and Energy that connects all places and all times at once.
It's so strange to look back on, because after over a decade, deep down I know something extremely important happened that night. I feel like me, whoever I am, I was actually created in that other place. That I was created in that fire. It's weird to know that I travelled for thousands of years amongst the ceaseless flows of energy, thousands of years of pure being and Experience, traveling at the speed of Light. It's weird to know that an important part of this person, whoever I am now, was created in that place that I spent thousands of years traveling, and I can't even remember it!!!!
That's what is strange, that I spent literal eternities in those universes, so much time, whatever happened there was so important, and I can't reach it now, I can't remember it. I just have a memory of a memory of a memory. Random flashes of recognition, and the strange awareness that I was forged in the fire of another universe.
I've dosed so many times since then, I never come close to that dose, I never come close to that experience. And for the most part I am quite ok with that. That trip was beyond intense, it literally destroyed me in every way I could imagine before it let me through those doors.
But what is slightly unnerving is this nagging feeling, this persistent itch. I've always had it I think, but I have become more aware of in the last year or so.
It's the awareness that I'm not done with that place. Or....that That place isn't done with me. Not yet. I would be fine with being done, with just playing with my low doses for the rest of my life. But this feeling is so persistent, I can't shake it.
There is a place that I spent lifetimes, centuries, eternities traveling. And It's not done with me. This feeling wont let go. One day before I die, I am going to have to go back there. I'm going to have to go as deep as I've gone before, if not deeper. I am going to have to stand before The Light, open, and let it break me down again. And whoever comes back will be different.
And honestly, that kinda scares the hell out of me

I hear ya man. Lately I've been looking back a lot...too much in fact. I've been searching for that spiritual connection that I once had, and a part of me feels a tugging to go back to that place. But I've been through so much, delved into the wrong drugs & went down some seriously dark roads in life. I fought hard to get myself back, to get where I am today; get on the road I'm on now. I'm happy with this road & I feel that it's the one that I should be on/will lead me to a life that I can live & be happy with. I want that connection, that feeling......but I don't want to come back a different person. I'm scared to leave the road I'm on, especially considering how hard I've worked to get on it.
It feels good to get that out. I've needed to verbalize these thoughts for awhile, yet haven't.

Best report ive seen. I teared up a little. Your report sir has helped me understand what im in for. One of my best friends has done LSD a few time and when im around him he has tried to explain what exactly is happening. Its been about 3 year since his last trip and since this time hes come to explain how it changes you. This report has just re assured me when the time is right and L decides to enter my life i know things will change.
These last 2 years for me have been pretty difficult and the more i read reports like this im constantly reminded then when it comes i will be leaving my old self behind and starting over with a rebirth. Ive been searching for the ultimate knowledge more so the teacher to help me grow through my issues. I can say that when time comes i know my life will be forever changed, i know for my friend it was and for ever will be. Ill never forget the energy he try explaining to me and how everything was connected. I feel there is more to life then what we see in human form and i know there is. Patients is a hard thing for something with the power to change lives, but the ultimate goal is worth the wait.
Thank you for your words and wisdom.

I registered here only to comment this report, it was really an amazing read.
Today, couple of hours ago, I did some salvia divinorum extract. It wasn't my first time, I have some in my bedroom and I take some to meditate and reflect on things. However, today I had a little life changer. I don't wanna go go too much into detail, but what I experienced in only about 15 minutes of time was truly amazing.
At first, I found myself to be only a small part of my conciousness, then I became just a moment in time of my conciousness, and I could see new moments of time were created infront of me while I was stuck in that very moment forever.
Then I became one with the universal ocean of conciousness, I could see and feel my body, but I could also feel everyone elses body, "my" body wasn't my body any longer - I was one with everything. The idea of me having my own body had always been an illusion, a dream. It was scary at first, but I quickly became content with it.
All I could feel now was love for everyone and everything, but as I started to realise that the concious me actually was in charge of this body, I felt disappointment towards "myself" and everyone else who had their own body, because of all the ego and selfishness in the world. We are all one, but still we always seem to act on our ego. This ocean of conciousness kept letting me know (not verbally) that I would soon return to "my" body, and I couldn't believe it. What right did I have to claim a body for myself? It seemed inconvinient too, to have a body, I didn't wanna have mass, I didn't wanna take up any space, I just wanted to be, and love.
I then realised that it was a great gift, almost to much, what a privilege. I was a bit concerned by the fact that I would control a body all by my own, it seemed complicated. but then the ocean of conciousness reminded me that I was one with it, and the concious me would only be the captain of the ship, while the rest of this ocean will always be with me.

I also loved your post, and I completely agree. I've touched this subject in my head already today while reflecting on my experience with Salvia, and infact I don't think it's ever really about the drug you use, it's about being able to remove some of that ego, the survival functions of life. Death will one day open our eyes, I'm never going to seek death, but I will never fear it either.
