Why do YOU trip?
    #7595692 - 11/04/07 06:20 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

I've got a question for all young and old alike.

It stems from a show i watched last night on VH1 called "The Drug Years". It was a show basically on why LSD was used in the late 60s early 70s. watching this, i remembered "The Psychedelic Experience" forum from shroomery.

So here's my question. Why do YOU trip? Expansion or Fun.

I'de like to make this kind of like a survey.

It seems like my generation (15-25 say) is into tripping to enjoy the company of a lava lamp instead of enjoying the company of each other and the life force of this planet.

To change the way I look at things. Life gets boring and it's good to get a different perspective on things. When I trip I make a bunch of realizations about my life that make me a happier person (in most cases).

and of course to have a damn good time. Nothin like trippin balls hahaa :mushroom2:

To be honest, if tripping was like torture, I sure wouldn't be see ecstatic to do it. If im with a group tripping, I do if for more a good time. When I'm alone or 1 on 1 it's more of a personal reflection type thing.

i agree with both of you. I must agree that tripping wouldn't be tripping if it wasn't fun. i just feel as though we have skewed the 60s meaning of tripping.

I am a big advocate of haveing a balance of all things. "just for fun" trips and "expansion" trips should be of equal importance. But i side more with expansion like our fore fathers when it comes to preference.

I'm bored with reality. I'm still hoping that one of these trips, I will come down seeing things in a different way that will make reality more interesting or precious to me.

So I trip for psychonautical purposes. I enjoy the trips because it's fun.

I do it for fun. Most drugs seem to have that aspect so to ignore it, I believe I wouldn't be doing it to its fullest extent.

Although, that doesn't stop me from doing it for other reasons too. I'm slowly experimenting with salvia and hopefully other things soon which I acquire for insight, mental growth, etc. I like to see things in new perspectives.

I also believe we're meant to use naturally occurring psychoactives. I always feel much for happier as a whole (sober or not) and much less 'empty'. Drugs have defiantly strengthened my mind.

i like the extra layers and indulge when i wont have to drive but only enough to still talk regularly with friends or family.

on one recent plane ride, i accidentally commented on the choir music, but the guy beside me said i was imagining it.

i get extra perspective from psych's and it helps me solve problems or just breathe or both.

if i am with a few people its more for fun, to free my mind, to stick it to the man, its to party and have a good time.

by myself its more for self realization, to look inside, to become one with nature, its more of a spiritual thing alone.

i appreciate all your responses.

now if you wouldn't mind. I'm not trying to overthrow the gov. or anything (too hard haha).

After watching that show. I couldn't help but wish that i grew up in that time era.

Who among you would like to see a new hippie generation. A new revolution of LSD use, mind expanding, peace to the world, war ending, free love and all things like. And how do you think our country would be like if it experienced another hippie era?

I used to do it for mind expansion, but lately I feel like psychedelics have taught me about all that they can(though I still have yet to really get into DMT). At this point, I pretty much do them for partying, though I'm still interested in seeing if there's anything more they can show me.

I trip simply because of how much I love life. I trip to better understand the human condition, to better understand myself, and the people around me. The feeling of being completely within as well as without the universe and all contained within it is breath-taking. Tripping is the most awe-inspiring experience that I've ever had. It has shown me how to live my life in peace and harmony. I trip because of everything.

I want to be enlightened. I want to be terrified. I want to gain perspective. I want to understand. I want to forget. I want to remember. I want to know how it feels to die. I want to be overwhelmed. I want to experience the deep end of reality.
"To feel connected, to feel inspired" and the rest of that Tool song.

And as for the Sixties, what did the hippies accomplish? I mean, A for effort, but really, if I were to wish for some sort of radical revolution, I would like for it to be a successful one. I see no need to repeat the failings of the past. Though if I had lived in that time, it would have been pretty cool to have had that magnitude of organized support for psychedelics and political change.

tripping gives my artistic mind constant everchanging wonderful creative images along with feelings and sounds to go with the image. Something to keep me from being bored with life. like morphman said tripping is the most awe-inspiring thing ever.

i trip because tripping for me is a satisfying experience,

the "fun"(visuals funny thoughts) tripping things are equally as fun as the mind expansion aspect for me.

a trip without mind expansion just wouldnt be a trip at all though

Before i read any other's reasons... i'll explain it for myself.

I trip because i am curious about all aspects of life. Not for a high, for enlightenment, and raw visions of my situation in life. I do it for artistic reasons as well, because tripping obviously heightens the visual senses, and you can see alot more things your didn't before, and sometimes in an abstract way.

I use specifically the divine mushroom, for spiritual evolution.
Salvia had a profound effect on me. It made me realise life is alot more worth living.
Life is about experiencing everything you can, to prepare for the afterlife.

Here's a journal i wrote about mushrooms....

"There's no explanation for the effects of mushrooms. You are not seeing hallucinations, but rather visions of things that are all around you, on different dimensional wavelengths. The nature of this mushroom is death, and all aspects of the experience circle around the concept. Good and evil appear simultaneously, as one spiritual being. A ying yang spirit, whispers ancient secrets into my brain.

I am part of an every consciousness, and im the cells of a higher being, as is everything i can perceive around me. I get the great sense that i am being watched by playful, enlightening spirits that are glad i can to drop into their frequency of dimension.

Visions of space, the sun and moon, and alien species jolt into my senses as i peer into the electrified sky. My former best friend looks down on me from the spirit world, manifesting my vision to see glimpses of his spiritual shell.

Any pupil in a connection into the spiritual world, and a connected to any human beings mind. After jumping into the psyche of a few individuals, i have a higher sense of wisdom, as if i am learning from others without listening.

Concepts are drilled into my head, and shown before my eyes. Transcending beings comfort me along the way, tickling my senses. Eye's of all species, and colors pierce into my peripheral vision, whenever a spirit wanders by."
