Coping with an open Third Eye
    #22015585 - 07/29/15 03:26 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I still consider myself a novice psychonaut as I have only done shrooms once along with dmt a dozen times or so and some others such as dxm, however I have had some intense experiences, particularly my experience on 3.2g of potent shrooms + cannabis for my first time.

Ever since I started experimenting with psychedelics i.e. "opening my third eye" my view on everything has changed, I feel for worse.

I no longer believe in religion like I used to, which is depressing for me because all I can think about is how our lives our pointless. We are simply just these animals that are going to die and for all we know it will be black forever, just like before we were born.

I feel like these things are not meant to be thought by humans. Like we are not meant to know these things that we learn through shrooms because we cannot comprehend or make sense of it.

It's hard to find happiness when you know it can only be temporary at best anyway. I will still keep adventuring into the void, of course. But does anyone else feel this way? or have thoughts that might be able to give me a more positive outlook on things, that would be nice

Interestingly, I never believed in a higher power until a powerful experience on mushrooms. Just stay positive, why would the presence of a god or afterlife make you any more or less happy in your present existence. Just try to experience this life to its fullest. Get out more and travel as much as possible. It will give you a new perspective on how wonderful this life can be.

I have had contact to some type of higher being, however, I don't believe it was "god" and I don't believe in what organized religion teaches.

And honestly I understand that life can be great and fun and I do strive to make it so, but I can't help but view it as pointless anyway because after death this life won't even be remembered, we might not even exist. I have thoughts like that constantly

I'm on my phone right now and can't elaborate too much. But, I've been a hard line materialist for a long time now, and I don't think it makes life any more pointless. Or, at least, I don't find life being pointless depressing. Why should there be a "point"?

Anyway, this is a good, short video that touches on some of the implications of materialism that I actually quite like.

Well, your perception ends. But don't worry about it. You won't perceive it.

The meaning of your life is whatever meaning you choose to give it. Why would you want it any other way? I for one wouldn't like being enslaved to the will of some cosmic dictator.

Why do you wish for an afterlife? A life that never ends eventually becomes pointless tedium with no real value. When I'm dead, I won't care that I'm dead, because I'll be dead. If you keep an open, positive mindset, then psychedelics can be one of the most useful tools for understanding and appreciating the world.

I highly recommend trying LSD. I find it to be much more uplifting and controllable than mushrooms, and I've been able to integrate it better. In the right dose, with the right mindset, it can be a superhuman drug, greatly enhancing your mind, body, and senses.

The trick to overcoming alienation is to integrate the experiences and use that new found perspective to improve your everyday life socially, intellectually and spiritually. It takes patience and dedication, but you really can have the best of both worlds if you try.

Mmm, what makes you think your third eye is open, anyway?  If there's no spiritual connection you experience - spiritual, not religious - then you're just whistling in the dark.  You've got the beginner blues - trip more and it'll turn around. :thumbup:

Thats weird.

When i do shrooms, i feel more connected to the idea of "God" and i feel a spiritual connectedness to the World around me.

Sounds like it has the opposite effect on you. Very interesting :strokebeard:

The way I see it, sober reality, there is a 50/50 odds of there being a higher power/consciousness.

Now what happens when we do psychedelics...the 50/50 odds do not change but the depth of each position increases. its like the odds get amped up to 100/100 odds :lol: even though that makes no sense, of course. so really psychs are just a true amplifier of reality..on all ends.


so the bottom line is that no matter how much you trip or done trip...we CANT know. Because that is the mystery of life. its a true mystery...a living one. Nothing will be able to crack the code of these answers besides perhaps death.

If anything after doing mushrooms and having tons of trips I find the words spoken by jesus to make more sense. These are a few interesting quotes

"Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."

"If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you."

"Whoever has come to understand the world has found (only) a corpse, and whoever has found a corpse is superior to the world."

:mindblown:




whem I do mushrooms, I literally feel like jesus. its hard to explain but that's the only way to put it :shrug:

but not in a cocky way like I can do miracles and im the son of god..but more like I want to help and serve others like jesus did. I have the understanding that jesus did. I love like jesus and the immense feeling of humility

All is one. You're the actor, stage, and audience.
Life is a game you made for yourself. Enjoy it and don't take it so seriously.
Abandoning the triangle of servitude religions is a good thing in my opinion.
You can only find "god(s)" in yourself then you'll see it everywhere and everything.
You can use text to guide you but faith is no substitute for experience. No book has ever been written by a "god(s)" on earth. It's all men doing the writing.
Without experience you'll hopeless misinterpret texts that have already been translated and manipulated countless times.
At worst when you die it won't be black. It won't be anything. At best you'll move on but if you move on I don't think you'll remember much. You might not be who you think you are.
If you think you're your name, likes/dislikes, and ideas about the world you may need to go deeper.

"Man takes too seriously what the gods made for fun"
"To die is to go to sleep and never awake, to live is to wake up never having gone to sleep."
("And they take the word of God as an easy auto response to the questions and designs of the natural order. At which point the man lost his connection with natural... At which point he rises as a cruel assassin against the Earth... Humanity is in a new age, the age of fight between mother and son.")

I love what you just said there. I have that theory as well actually, that we are all one. Every individual consciousness on the planet, every animal, every plant, insect, etc. is part of one consciousness, "God". I am god, you are god, we are god.

And time is all at once but is only perceived by individual consciousnesses as linear because that's the only way it would make any sense, and life is lived through each one like a loop.

It's like every perception is a branch on a tree, and the entire tree is the being experiencing them.

your third eye is not even begun to open.When it really opens you will not say things like you say in op. How can you possibly believe that you have the third eye open? Mind can fake anything. It can give you a fake experience of an onpen thrid eye. That is what it seems to have done with you. The OP is just rant.


--------------------
Most of my beliefs I acquired from my father and from John Wayne, and anything that wasn't ultra tough and ultra cool was to me ultra embarrassing. In fact, I lived in a state of near continuous embarrassment, never measuring up to the ridiculous standards I had accepted without question, applied to a framework of expectations neither I nor anyone else could meet.--J C Amberchele

almost nothing important that ever happens to you happens because you engineer it. Destiny has no beeper; destiny always leans trenchcoated out of an alley with some sort of 'psst' that you usually can't even hear because you're in such a rush to or from something important you've tried to engineer. ”

I'm not hear to compete with anyone's ego. If you wish to argue who's third eye is open more then please do not post.

In any case, I'd say i've had enough experiences to consider my third eye at least somewhat open, especially compared to the average person with no experience whatsoever.
