If you own cats and meditate, have you noticed that if they aren't locked out of the room you're in they jump right on you, and if they they are, they claw furiously at the door to try and get in? they must love that energy you radiate,hehe

2 different cats in my experience go cat-nip like bonkers when I have smoked DMT or tripped on Yage/Ayahuasca... seems like they catch a buzz with me
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

I find that cats are attention freaks (yet always cold and distant, figure that..) and they probably can't stand you turning inward and not staring at their puckered anus while they walk around with their tails held high.

The cat see's that you are being quite and can't figure out why. I was meditating this one time and I was able to read my cats mind. His thoughts:
That's strange, I don't even have his tongue.

it's like IT KNOWS!!!!!!!!
cats an meditation....hmmm
-------------------- Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

Ny cat hangs around me and walks all over me and aroundthe immediate area I am in and is really hyperactive and purs a lot. I guess it is like he likes the vibe though, ya, though I guess it is a hyperactive happpy response rather than a meditating happy response. He definately knows when we are tripping.

It's the vibrations which emanate from you, which is also what people respond to when you speak to them.
