Wierd Thoughts!

Am i the only one that has thought that life is not real and is only imagined. As if we are stuck in a game and that there is a message in life that you learn before you die. But what if death was all about finding the message and you start over into another universe or soul. As if there is parallel universes.

Life is a dream. It's down to you to make it an enlightened, Edenic dream or a nightmarish hell. It's largely your choice. Don't let the fact that reality can be seen as a game get you down- don't give up; play.

Me and my buddies were tripping and we came to the conclusion that life is like a videogame that you can't alt-tab out of (unless you take psychs). Good times.

A couple times while on acid I've felt like my brain was projecting all the images I was seeing out of my eyes and the LSD was getting in my brain which then fucked up the projection. I felt like if I died, all of life would come to an end, like nothing was real, like it was all just a projection from my brain. 
I don't see life like this everyday though, just a thought that crossed my mind while frying on acid.

these are natural expressions after seeing a bigger picture than can be put into words. these are not true judgements since seeing a bigger picture thancan fit into words breaks the chain of thought into ill fitting partial associtions. what is true is that thoughts in words are very limiting to the expanded consciousness which can contain multiple realities simultaneously, and some of these realities are contradictory.
if you are a tripper you have to be able to abide by all phenomena even those that seem contradictory.
the most beautiful part of the trip is when you begin to see things fitting together well that previously were all clashing and contradictory.
everything is precious.

When I was tripping yesterday I was thinking about how when you put a frog in a pot of cold water, and start to boil it, the frog will swim around in it peacefully and happily til it dies. I think life may be a little like that. Once we realize the water is boiling, it is "too late" and we are cooked into a cosmic meal, eaten, digested, shat out, used as fertilizer, to grow more humans, to make more super-soup. Eventually, in the cosmic infinitum, everything will happen again, and you will be reborn.
I was also thinking, if this metaphor rings true (or true enough;-) to some people's ears, what if some one who was born, realized they were in this pot of water that was boiling, and got out before it was too late. Would they get a better outside view of they way reality works? Would their death not be a cooking sensation, but a rotting sensation? Rotting "vegetables" make good fertilizer, too.
I think though, life is ultimately a "game" A game like D&D, as my tired analogy. i find as I get older, and dumber/smarter? my mere choices as to how to approach what mind state I can have reflects itself while I ride the weird, universal current of human death. I feel a little like the frog that jumped out of the boiling water when he knew what was up. However, it is a Festival of Deaths, and festivals are fun and filled with love, and I'm having some. Fun and love is like the flavor of the soup; at least that's what the person making it told me.
Make of these thoughts what you will, for I am detaching them from the vessel "they came from" and are now up for grabs! (I really put my thoughts out there, in a way, because I don't want them(never did));-)
I have Parenthesis names!

It's not "fake".
It's not a "game".
You all know what a fractal looks like.
Imagine this "life", this "reality", this physical existence as one stage of the fractal.
We die, and move on to the next stage, but that doesn't mean this stage is "fake". It all could very well be pointless, but it isn't at all "fake".
Once you "wake up" and realize that there is something different, it doesn't mean this is a dream or fake or w/e, it just means, hey, there are OTHER THINGS before and after this physical part.
As to what comes next, well.... I'm not gonna rob your topic...
It's ONE STAGE OF THE FRACTAL. "DEATH" is just the transition from this one to the next.
DEATH is transition.

Ultimately in the end life is pointless, but like all things, it has its reasons. Life exists for reason beyond the capacity of the human brain, and I think that the true meaning of life will always be hidden, because why waste your time studying when you know all the answers?
Just the mere fact of feeling instead of being is enough reason for life to exist alone. The simple fact that we and all animals can have feelings and emotions, well that is a characteristic of life.

Here are some of my weird thoughts from last night. Or one at least.
Relationships are basically 2 people getting together who have some things in common. They then go out and do the regular stuff until a conflict arises, then the conflict is sanded down until both parties agree on a subject in a certain way and you move on to the next until you fit perfectly together. If at any point a compromise cant be made about a subject you break up and you move along trying to find that piece that fits just a bit better then the last one.

OK i started the subject off weird, I meant that their is something way bigger controlling how we speak, what to think, or choices , and even the message of what we learn every day. It is making me believe more and more that there is a God out there and he is putting us through all of this life to show us something bigger than the mind can handle. My last trip i eat 4 grams of mushrooms and began thinking about this. Me and my friend were getting very deep into the topic and then something happened and it was my peak. And i was trying to understand something that i think i will never comprehend. I already understand small things like how time is bull shit. But we tried to understand the creators of all. Because there are beliefs of the big bang but it just seems as if there is way to much complications for this to occur without a reason. As i continued these thoughts i though of what a black hole could be and that maybe we are not supposed to see all the things we are trying to see. Then all the sudden panic happened and my friend freaked out and began to scream. As if there was a reason for him not to see what I was trying to see. The rest of the trip was concentrated about what we almost understand and what it could be. This was by far the deepest i have ever gone.

I think you should let go of the idea that whatever answer you're getting close to will be too big for your mind to handle.
This is not to say that one can ever fully understand the totalty of God's work, just as no one can hope to count to the value of infinity even if they spend thier entire life counting. But if you can define a question, I believe you can comprehend the answer that is provided.
Weighing the value of the answers you seek is more important than seeking them. Let's say you knew all of the universe's (God's) secrets... how would that help you in your daily life? Are you really seeking God's secrets, or are you seeking what you think that enlighentend knowlege will bring? Peace of mind, purpose, reason, belonging, or perhaps a way "out".
Again, I don't believe any one question, answer, vision, insight or equation will provide the full meaning of everything and I don't believe that should be a goal. If anything it's a red herring, a wild goose chase purpetuated by ego inorder to remain relevent.
Just a thought...

This is a little bit like what you are talking about. I don't completely subscribe to it but it is interesting. At first when reading it I was like "no fucking way this is a science fiction story" but as I kept reading it did have some plausibility to it.
edit: actually I'm not sure if this is at all what you are talking about but it seemed to be a worthwhile addition to the discussion.

cagerplaya247, if you really want to know the meaning of life, how the universe was created, and get a peak behind the curtains of reality start playing around with LSD+N20. That combo has the power to show you more than you ever wanted to know... trust me.
