psychadelic vision beauty & love.
    #22426227 - 10/24/15 08:42 AM (8 years, 3 months ago)

This post written for the benefit of all, for the life of all, and for the h'art of all.

To share the love, beauty and light one may experience in psychadelic state, beauty, love, etc.-- vision, light, etc.

just a few words on the subject- shared from another post;


If you like me, please help to share the wisdom that ganja is sacred, healing plant.


As fewer things than this-- almost nothing, is more important.


Let us make this world a safe place, for God's sake.

It is easy - beautiful, and free.  The way is wide open.


Partially am writing this because not just 2, now, but 2 more of my ancestors have fallen.

No cause for sadness-- Universal family is the reality... we are all one family.


Good health to all, most especially- all good health, strength, peace, to those working for peace... All deserve friendship, peace and love- but those working actively to spread darkness... Must be stopped.

Love alone over comes hate... May all be healthy, well, happy, and at peace.


Peace and Light,

Jacob



in reply to the good friend topdog and blankk:


Yes; what was also good for me was studying up about them beforehand; shrooms I took with friends before studying or anything, but I read up on erowid before doing any of the others really; at least a bit, and ready the Joyous Cosmology by Watts before LSD, etc. . hehe. . it's also kind of like our culture has left bread crumbs or clues..  The Doors, named after Blake's poem, 'When the doors of perception are cleansed, all will appear to [humanity] as it is, infinite,' etc., and Huxley's book The Doors of Perception by the same reference. . one i have only skimmed, no need or interest so far. :sun:

give me better ones :sun: hehe

relating to Watts, for instance. . . yesterday I had a rather profound realization about the whole thing.  i truly believe this is spot on.  Watts classifies these as medicines for the mind, in his work, primarily the three psilocybin, mescaline and LSD, and gives qualifiers such as, when it's done on spiritual discovery and so forth. . .

well, he gives those qualifiers but i realized something else: something he didn't quite put in words there.

like you mention, those who had a spiritual background, interest in the mystic traditions, earth-mystics, and well - spiritual inquiry in general... well here's what i realized yesterday:  something i already knew and basically understood but it became a little clearer how to put it.

i already knew that some spiritual practice, discovery, work and worship etc., -'work and worship are necessary to remove the veil,'  vivekananda, -  and, when i was on a trip and around that time - i knew that if someone was happy and peaceful, it would almost be impossible for them to have a bad trip -- if they've worked out their good or bad feelings etc. . .

so i already knew it but i put it into better words:  they are medicines but the beautiful thing is -

once someone gets to where the're already happy, peaceful - you know, which does require a fair amount of self-reflection, peacefulness, etc. . .

so in other words -- completely well -- then to experience these -- that is where the medicinal part comes in. . .

because then you see -- aha! wonderful and beautiful life i have lived so far -- I had no idea!!!

hehe, then you see the medicine of spirit. . . higher / deeper realities -- waking up from the dream, which is quite beautiful.

for many people it is not easy to make that shift, and -- then there's the question of integrating such experiences.

as we all mostly know, lots of mystics describe all kinds of things like this -- and. . . probably one's karma is what brings one to good ones or rascals. :sun: 

'coz there are a few rascals out there. . . etc.  but like i say, they are not at all the norm. :sun:

so - round'a'bout way of getting to my point, but that's something i realized yesterday, seemed rather profound-- hehe which may seem silly as it's something i already talked about and knew -- get healthy first, an important thing. . i mean mentally :sun:  and emotionally, which is also spiritually and physically - they're all so linked :sun:

but ya - i thought a good clarification of the medicinal aspect of these.  this view, clarification for the medicine; having some good idea of the spiritual realms, from hinduism or buddhism or whichever floats your fancy - and seems most worthwhile - amen, that is the main thing - to follow one's heart, etc.. . and choose the best by one's own heart and belief. :sun:

then perfect health is easy.

another thing --- in reply to OP; mentioning, about the whole thing -- respect for sacred cultures probably makes a significant difference. . . when i was a kid, i went to a few pow-wows, and had such awe and reverence, and love for them...  so beautiful and wonderful; tho i have, over the years, certainly focused on other things to the exclusion of all else -- when i was learning a skill, studying chess or music or something - but these were nice to come back to over the years, when i had much stillness, to remember them. . . ' how's it feel when there's time to remember - branches bare like the trees in November, ' oldfield. . . sort of like a nice bedrock foundation :sun: :smile: and later on, sweat lodge with my best friend.. . love those.

which may seem random or what not, but i mention it (thought of putting it earlier, but ya).. those and others - so blessed are we, to have authentic and genuine continuation of a people, earth-based, sacred path and shamanic path, who follow earth-mother, and have genuine knowledge of the sacred. not just one, but many, as there are many tribes which are flourishing, now, that people have woken up and are much more kind and loving towards one another, in the overall schemata.

they are just one, and they're one that are warm-h'arted, kind, open and so forth -- and i am talking about mostly the ones i have had contact with - not necessarily having to do with anything entheogen related - simply the culture in general, which is warm, loving and kind; welcoming, to share their celebration and love of earth-mother, spiritual wisdom, simple gladness and happiness and peace, and any of the good life; it is interesting how such bonds have healed; they are also known as being very reserved at times, which is only natural - the point is they are sacred human beings as are all others, living in harmony with earth mother is what brings about our connection to her; love shown by actions as well as words.  ( which of course, am not meaning to say either one is more substantial. :sun: )

in general, or in more broad view - by entering the sacred, one may get glimpses of realms of a lot of goodness - as i mentioned, integrating these requires a lot of devotion to such an ideal - whatever one's ideal is. .. as it is my wish to help.  the goodness requires sensitivity - and, doing no harm is often, if not almost always, of more primacy than an attempt to good - just a rather universal rule, it seems to be. . . to be a healer is a sacred calling and one should not take it lightly -- and, devote all one's love and healing to one's own form, first, because the primary thing is -- wherever your heart is at, that's how one will affect people, etc...  one really must have a broad view, and be quite sure -- and, also, any barriers or divisions we set up - as f. herbert mentioned briefly - these create the conditions generally, for misunderstanding and so forth, and what not..  his words a little more eloquent on that particular topic.  although he did not quite reach the depths of healing love. :sun: he was very very good however :smile: hehe.

meant to say - on the broader view, in reply to your friends, etc., one reason many stages of the path are solitary is, it's not so easy to climb to the peak of a mountain if one is required to pull another up, each step of the way. . . the Zen saying is ' Go up on the mountain, and then come back down. '

the same value of solitude, is seen in every tradition - Rumi, ' for a while we lived with people, but saw
no sign of the faithfulness in them we wanted;
it's better to hide completely within -
as water hides in metal, as fire hides in a rock.'

or goethe - ' it is, after all, the greatest art to isolate and limit oneself '

yet we are social beings, so we do peace and healing work wherever possible.  vimalakirti nirdesa sutra, a buddhist sutra (tr.  by Charles Luk a very nice one )  talks about how path to Nirvana -the Bodhisattvas can attain it - but out of love and kindness for all living beings, come back to the world to save other living beings.

stillness, is particular - of vast and great value. . it's called one of the three gates to nirvana - specifically, non-action or wu-wei.  this is what i noticed in my own trip as well - if i moved, the experience would abate, completely, when i remained still - then absorption increased until the first instant of non-duality, upon which i instantly knew, infinite peace, and that there was never any reason to worry, fear or doubt; no matter what may happen, in a million years.  yet that was only the first instant; beginning of a 6-hour, beautiful trip, through boundlessness, bliss and peace, culminating in a vision of the infinite, a lotus flower, within which were boundless budhdas, within each of which were boundless white lotuses -- boundless pure lands -- and staring into the white lotus, i realized at that moment, that it was my own inner most h'art, that it was my very self.

then i gently floated back 

yep - this is a personal experience and to share it with others - is often best done with simple kindness; and as i've mentioned, it's like an anchor for the rest of life -- and many years spent in integrating such experiences, exploring the sacred love of earth mother further - and our connection, and so forth;  to explain this type of thing to any one person - is very possible, especially if there's love, friendship and trust between the two people -- especially when it is based in goodness; and perhaps a shared connection to a certain ideal; hopefully a good one :sun: hehe

even with friends - often. . . however the thing is - if one writes a book or something, like Watts' book on the Joyous Cosmology, or McKenna, etc.- - then that can last a long time, and reach a lot of people. . . or share beauty in poetry, music or art. . . these are often there.. and a person's h'art, soul and goodness often goes into their art -- and we can appreciate it. .

one thing i've always pretty much known but later learned more about is - we can experience things of art most especially when - we've already experienced something similar. . . a similar depth of beauty and love ourselves. .. then it's almost quite clear.  i noticed this especially with Rilke, translated by MacIntyre. . . recently - Orpheus Sonnets; i had glanced at the book a couple times and appreciated it some -- it wasn't until i spent a month in the forest, very beautifully -- 'learn to wait, and while you're waiting learn to concentrate ' - Moondog. -- that when i came back to rilke's book, it spoke to my soul. . .so beautifully.  so wonderfully.  it also makes all the difference in the world who the translator is.

so by putting it into art and beauty, one can present it to the entire world, and so forth - and shine some light - for it is certainly light which is very good.  this is a good way to share the path to earth mother, to the sacred. . . as i mentioned - the first instant of my own experience -- when i saw that infinite peace for the first time -- i mention these are good as medicines, after someone has already reached a very happy and peaceful place -- then one can see, ah, reality :sun: hehe. . since i was very young, 3 even or so, i never lost. . . i always know that all was light, and would often share this with people -- not only that it is light, but the reason that is important.  the reason it is important is -- one may never harm a photon. . . i found it's lovely to ask this -- can you ever harm a photon?. ..  no, not really :sun: with warmth, depth, love, beauty and a relaxed joyfulness. . . one cannot harm a photon, no matter what one tries -- and so forth. 

namaste,
and peace.
