Does anybody think that drugs Are alive.? I mean yeast is suppose to be alive. And I wondered if people think Like chemicals and seeds are Alive? I write this because I feel Like I have a universal connection With stuff that people would Just class as say a object And it is nothing more.? I believe that the is spirit and life In a lot of things that we do not Notice. It’s like dolls or Chucky. Is that the future?
I think we should treat our drugs With great respect. Is taking The drugs the end of their life’s?

I started to think that with salvia it wasn’t even about ingesting the plant, that smoking it was just some sort of ‘burnt offering’ to summon up the salvia people because to a point dosage didn’t even matter. I would take massive hits and nothing and then other times I would finish off the leftover scraps in a bowl and find myself in another dimension. Really weird plant that salvia, seemed a lot like there was other beings involved.
Just a dried leaf though when you look at it.

Many fruits, vegetables, and seeds we consume are viable to continue their life cycle - they're certainly alive. Some of them, once processed for consumption, not so much.
But, in terms of that processing for consumption being 'the end of their life', that's where we tinkering humans come to play - by providing us something of peraonal value, we're compelled to proliferate their existence.

Except I always broke through even with plain leaf. But regarding the entities this was my experience.

Are we alive? Are drugs just taking rides through us and have their own trip? What makes clouds cloud?
Do I exist? Or just 'is' exists? Or I and is is all.

Maybe the trip is the afterlife Of the drugs. And clouds are passing time.

I would counter that with the thought, God is alive, God created everything, God did not go outside of itself to gain materials for said creation, therefore everything you see is made of life....... and salvia will teach you that a fence latch is conscious..

Graham Hancock often poses the question; “Are drugs evil?”
Obviously the answer is NO. Drugs are chemicals that affect the body regardless of who takes it, but it is not the drug that causes the problems, it’s the people using the drugs out of context!
