The universe evolves through meaning.

The universe evolves through meaning.
I had no idea being stoned felt like "this".
I have (unbelievable) case of spiritual amnesia.
Evolving through new meaning, it creates new portals into the world.
Wow.
//
In all seriousness, when I "return" I'd like to discuss poetry.
// This was incredible:
Quote:
I want us all to compile an extensive & thorough list of mind blowing/bending, powerful, profound, beautiful, cognitive-dissonance-causing, quotes, memes, videos, literature, lyrics(or songs), scriptures, illustrations, links, poems, or whatever form of portraying an idea or emotion you deem applicable. No specific subject, let it flow.
I understand that material I/you find profound are not profound to everyone, or anyone but myself/yourself. It's entirely a matter of perception. Perception is point of view specific and dynamic in it's interaction with time; the epitome of subjectivity. That's a good thing, I would like everyone to ignore what they think they should post, and post what they actually find important, beautiful, or profound to themselves. All serious contributions will be added to the compilation.
Who wrote such beauty?

Okay, I don't think I am having normal experiences from vaping weed.
I vaped two bowls of THC 19% last night (all in: one large bud). Is it normal to have Reality start subliminally communicating messages to you and that the concept of time loses all meaning? My music video winked out and started communicating universal truths to me. I feel like I need to make up things to even describe it... you sort of just need to be there to appreciate it.
Your life becomes unreal and you wake up from the dream into another reality. It becomes apparent that the Self and world are (constructed), and that there are perhaps infinite states of consciousness, all existing and forming Reality. Everything just feels so organic and so true and honest?
Like, that post above about sharing poetry, even if it doesn't mean something to the next person. It can still have a profound amount of meaning to the person, and those meanings create worlds. I don't know... I just got the sense that I'm perceiving a new universal force of the world, that's "fifth dimensional" in the sense that it extends from spacetime "outwards' into a new unseen realm. This fifth dimension could be meaning, and it is how the universe evolves beyond space & time.
Basically, in short, I feel like I've been to the edge of the universe and back. I saw it formed, saw it deform, and saw it recreate itself again as I returned?
Is this a normal reaction?
I'm kind of confused what people are experiencing on weed. I honestly can't imagine it getting any more intense, each trip seems to be more profound than the last. Easily ranks as the most important discovery of my life. I was gone for 8 hours, and I had to "turn it off" at that point in order to return.

There's all kinds of mysteries you could get a deep glimpse into while in this suggestive state of mind.

Just smoke meth and forget about it.

If this is an example of the writing style we can look forward to in his prospective book, I think the future looks bright.

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic Buster (it wasn't that great of writing and still needs a lot of rework... it's a first draft), but my friend takes it as a complement Thank you, your comments here that I've read are always quite good.
The book is going to star a protagonist Johnny Riddle, who discovers that he himself is the riddle behind Reality's existence and that the entire world is just signs. But there's an author behind his life that transcends everything, who happens to be named "You" and "the Ineffable Beyond". There's a lot of ecstasy and wonder to it. It's supposed to fill the reader with awe about the sheer fact that they, the reader, (YOU reading this) exist!!!! You Exist!!!
I didn't write it though, my friend did. Actually, the author is always Reality. That is, some might say the universe wrote it, as the universe is alive through us. But, materially speaking, it was my friend.
I hope it's good. I'll be honest, my friend is not a natural writer, but with the help of some editors, it may wind up being okay

This "new universal force" embraces both movement and stillness. The movement perhaps enlivening the stillness presented by contributor #3. The overlayed stillness and calm frayed to a lapping shoreline of words.

You would probably enjoy the study of qualia, how we relate to certain experiences is unique for each person.
For example, for one person green brings up thoughts of apples, flowers, grass, emotions, money, eyes, logos, or advertisements, a number of things might be seen as green besides just the colour, green might mean something different for someone else.
I might say something "tastes red" or "smells blue" which is related to qualia, colour aren't usually described as tastes or smells but we all have done this before. We often expect certain things to taste certain ways based on what colour the things are sold in, green and yellow might bring up thoughts and expectations of lemon/lime flavours but might actually be something else.
This is why we can, and often do, redefine certain things.
Anyway, I have to go to work!

I get it "now". It all makes sense...
