It is a serene merging with yourself, with other people, or with other forms of energy.(Bliss) True love does not exist in an emotional state.

before this thread i used to think i was unique as far as that goes.

i had a panic attack when i became convinced the universe was an illusion generated by a hateful demon and that it would disappear any second. i foresaw myself falling down the infinite abyss of hell burning eternally.

when i was young...probably 7 or 8 i remember thinking that everyone was a robot playing a trick on me.




You too?? That is exactly what I thought around that age.

It was inconceivable to me that other people could actually be existing in their own minds and own realities. The only reality I knew was my own, so it was beyond my comprehension that these people could be anything but robots.




When I was around that age, I thought I was the one who was the robot, who had convinced himself he was human. I also spent a good few weeks determined to uncover the truth that my parents could read my thoughts

How did this stuff get into our brains?

When I was about 5 or 6, I had this theory that life was all one long dream, and that when I died, I'd be waking up from it. I must say, it's refreshing to see that others had similar thoughts when they were kids. It doesn't surprise me that I grew up to be a psychonaut. It makes sense that someone who questions their reality would later go on to immerse themselves in alternate realities.

Absense of evidence is not evidence of absense...

"Religion is a defense against a religious experience"
              Carl G. Jung

 
"So really, ordinary reality is a kind of chemical habit, sanctioned by culture, which says it's okay to use certain drugs, eat certain foods, and have certain sexual behaviors. However, when you transcend all this pre-conditioning by returning to the original wisdom of the animal body, then you discover this immense dimension of opportunity. For some people, it is a frightening risk. To me, that's the psychedelic experience."

This is insane, I have been thinking about that matrix quotation for like two weeks, applying it to work, government, religion...  I think that show is the greatest piece of art ever.  There has to be some truth in all that Illuminati/Michael Moore/Robot-Alien Consipiracy stuff.  I mean, if I am THIS smart, and I am pretty smart, what could someone AS smart or SMARTER do with a little power?  People are soooo easy to control.  Think advertising, MTV, Iraq...

When I was 5, I asked my grandmother if, when I died, would God tell me everything. She asked what I meant by that, and I said, "You know, everything there is to know." You see, I felt that something huge was being kept from me, some secret, and that everyone else must surely know it. So she replied, "Yes, God will tell you everything," to which I responded, "I can't wait to die, Grandma!" She didn't really like hearing that.

Around the same age or younger, I would cry when my mother would call another person "bad," I would say, "Oh, no, Mama, he's not bad. He's just having a bad day."

I consistently felt out of place the older I got, and was very confused by the world in general. Then I got assimilated.

Do people with these experiences wind up being Psychonauts by nature, or do we only remember these things because of our travels?

These recollections from childhood are interesting. The age of reasoning kicks in around ages 7-8.

Wonder how reasoning plays a role in this topic.




I was thinking more on this and wondering if the "knowing" and these comments from early childhood have to do with what we know, before human reasoning kicks in.

In other words, is that "something known" only known beyond reasoning or the ability to reason?

Trippy thought I wanted to add to this.

i guess i had that splinter for a while. What you know, you can't explain that quote reminds me of the futility of words. Krishnamurti said 'the description is never the described'. ive been very curious lately as to if i can think without words.

lately though ive had a feeling that i know...nothing. i cant really give importance to any of my thoughts anymore. ive been over-analyzing and not giving a shit at the same time. also im starting to feel like an arrogant asshole if i post something on this site, thinking anyone cares what i think, or that my thoughts are more relevant than others. take that how you want, just my current crazy thought process that will no doubt continuously change until my death.

A lot of us here discuss the difficulty of not having words to explain "knowings" or ephemeral understandings. Sure it's frustrating.

I'm beginning to think it's because those untangible to verbal languange understandings are not meant to be spoken but rather, are meant to be felt to move you in harmony with them through your actions.

Share your stuff here. Who cares if people want to think your being egoic. Everyone is in one form or another. If they think you are putting yourself above them, then thats their inferiority complex problem to be faced with and work on. Maybe you can help them with it and bridge some gaps.

Lots of people come here to read looking for the insight of others, something off the beaton path to relate to or inspiration who don't post. Consider yourself to be posting for them.

Like the saying goes, everyone has pieces to the puzzles we are all individually and collective working on. Share your puzzle pieces. And read my sig. :heart:
