By the way, take any free shots you want at me. I'm letting this get ridiculous. I won't be replying on this thread anymore.

The drugs are only a tool, a key......everything you experience on them is due to an opened mind/third eye....in other words, they open the doors, but you have to walk through them. A trip is a journey through your mind, everything you experience is through them. I was an athiest because everything the Christian church does is contray to the message of Christ...I learned that real quick when I was young. However, I never lost my curiousity...and when I tripped, I re-discovered that there is a lot more going on than I had realized....than many people realize. I saw the divine pattern so to speak. In no way do I consider psychedelic drugs themselves to be God incarnate, as I said, they are just a tool. Of course they aren't the only way to experience spirituality, there are many, many ways...all I was saying is don't discount them, don't cast them as aside as "drugs"....just because that state was induced by a substance does not invalidate it. Tripping has answered many questions for me, but for everyone answered, 10 more are brought up. I've seen the bigger picture....and it's way beyond me, basically I've seen firsthand that there is this bigger picture, that we are all involved in some very weird process. I don't know what the point is though. I use what I learn to be more spiritual...I don't just count on tripping. IME, tripping shows the best way to live, how to bring love and light into this world and get the most out of life (of course this is different for everyone...IMHO, one of the reasons organized religion doesn't work is because each one uses one man's (or woman's) way to a successful and happy life and way to "heaven" as a blueprint for everyone, and that obviously doesn't work for everyone)....all that work is up to you though, and I have to admit, I need to work harder at this. In closing, I don't know what tripping is, other than this incredible journey through the mind. I know it's real, I know it opens you up to different levels of conciousness, and other planes of existence.....but I don't know what the f**k is really going on here, and this is why I continue to trip, to try to figure out what it is, to try to figure out what we, and why we are ( That's basically the whole journey of life there..."What am I, who I am, why I am here, where did I come from....and the were am I going?) It's a facinating journey, and one i've grown a lot from....I can definately say i'm a better person thanks in part to my trips. One more thing....why does it matter where faith comes from, as long as you have it?

Sorry, I lied about not posting anymore.
For the most part, I thought that was a really great post.
I felt I should say so.

if you have a pre existing medical condition then yes, shrooms can bring that out, but otherwise your pretty safe, they wont do anything as bad as pot, ever talk to a 60 year old stoner? people being institutionalized from bad trips are people whom take LSD and have pre existing medical conditions (Sid Barrett). as long as you have a healthy mind your safe. just dont ovverindulge and pervert the meaning!

Got a question about a substance? Erowid might already have your answer! Have questions about the mushroom experience?
