I want to be here now, forever

I had a 3 gram trip last night that was my first in 6 months. I'm very comfortable operating in a stoned state and this trip felt totally at home. My friend and I described it as feeling more sober than we had ever felt in our life. It was incredible, I just felt like I got my ego out of the picture and could become whatever I was doing.
For those of you that have experienced that bliss, how have you integrated it into your sober life? I want to stay that way forever and the world needs people with that attitude.

I haven't tripped since the summer and my first flush of my first grow should be dry today... I can't wait to go back to lala land

i love that feeling.
where you dont have anything to do except what you're doing so you can focus your entire mind on what you're doing.
no 'i have to take out the trash i have class tomorrow i wonder if ol girl is knocked up i wonder if i'm going to die i wonder how much im getting paid this week i wonder if we're going to pull out of the war in iraq i wonder if britney spears is gonna flip out again i wonder if im gonna get good grades i wonder if im gonna be successful in life'
just turn the t.v. off and sit in silence and enjoy it
i fuckin hate the t.v.

thank you for sharing your experience arpnuke
"I just felt like I got my ego out of the picture and could become whatever I was doing."
i assume that your "ego" was fully there. if a person loses all grasp of their ego there is no "I", and there is no "arpnuke". the best way that i can describe it is that arpnuke would not excist, because arpnuke is not anyone, arpnuke is everyone. arpnuke is not anything, because arpnuke is everything. arpnuke is nowhere, because arpnuke is everywhere (all at the same time) and at the same "time" arpnuke is all of time (all at the same time ). acheiving such a state is much easier said then done.
"For those of you that have experienced that bliss, how have you integrated it into your sober life? I want to stay that way forever and the world needs people with that attitude."
it sounds like you had a enjoyable experience. you can spend years thinking and learning about one experience like that, and i do not find it all too necessary for many people to repeat it a thousand times. you can not be on shrooms every second of every day, so, my suggestion is to learn how to experience bliss in life sober. and that is also easier said then done,

Just bear your shroom trip in mind at all times, apply the lessons you learned from it wherever possible. The memories are a guide that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

It looks like I'm going to have to live with my ego then. I didn't experience ego loss, but I minimized it enough that I could enjoy life without being too weird for a sober person. I could see myself taking a few trips a year until I die, but what kind of mental consequences does tripping more than a few times bring with it? I feel like psychedelics can be enormously helpful to a mind that is ready to accept the feelings or enormously hurtful to a mind that will not accept them. If someone is using the drugs responsibly and having good experiences with them, I don't think it would fuck with them.
I know I can't stay that way forever, but I feel like maybe I will slowly change myself to be more like the tripping me. It's such a beautiful experience that needs to be shared as well as cultivated within ourselves.

That feeling won't last unless you continually guide your life in the right direction, which is nearly impossible. That's why we need to trip periodically. But do take what you learned from your trip and apply it to your everyday life. That's the only way tripping is going to have any lasting benefit.

Mushrooms are interesting, aren't they?
The beautiful thing about tripping is that it is real, in ways other drugs aren't. I've never looked at anything the same way ever since I first tripped, so a little bit of that "feeling" never leaves.

haha I know exactly what your talking about arpnuke!!
its so real, you feel sober and open and just accepting to whatever happens. oh man its a great feeling, but you will soon find its only a feeling, nothing lasts forever.

I'd suggest a higher dose with set and setting conducive to a learning experience.

I generally learn things on almost any trip that's at least 2.5 grams, maybe it's a bit higher for you though Rectul.

Shrooms make me useless mentally and physically, i can't say i learn much except to respect the drug. My trips only reaffirm my atheist beliefs and my general ego, my ego is what i believe affects what i see, this may not be the case for alot of people, so maybe its just me. But this to me can be bliss, comfortable with myself in my environment... that is, of course, until i decide to eat more as i'm coming down and the trip turns on its head and i hate myself and want to die.
Cactus, on the other hand, i'm just blissful.
