Yeah. It's kind of grim, for me, because the reactions I see usually just dig people deeper into suffering.
I know what you mean. I meant more that it can be funny to watch your own conditioning, if you recognize the game... "Haha, look at all the directions mind is trying to go...and to where? Away from here? Into the not-now? Not gonna happen."

But what is awesome is finding other's who are "clear" as well. It's so refreshing not to be projected upon, placed into roles, etc.
That's one of the best feelings in the world. That can be hard, too, because you see how much you're still fitting people into boxes to keep your own comfort.

Please try your hardest to explain this idea you are portraying because if we can't understand you there is no point to this thread. Personally I'm very interested in what you are saying so please continue!

ts727 said: what type of visions come from collective consciousness?
I have random moments were everything becomes really significant and then whoever or whatever im with(living things) i gain this extreme attatchment to it/them emotionally and mentally.
Its really kinda hard to explain.
i think i understand, as i have experienced visions of sorts too
it happens when identification with the ego and external world ceases, sometimes for mere moments, and i realize the dynamic evolving state of everything, rather than perceiving everything as static. it used to happen intensely when i meditated for an hour then took a long hike on a mountain top... it is unexplainable, but it is definitely there. it is like a vision of the world as one being, growing as one being, into what i don't know, but it is though i will find out eventually..

Ive never had visions before. I have had some experience with things like this though, one thing you have to be careful with is not to go to far. When things like this happen in your sober, waking life it easy to become un grounded. This can be very dangerous. You have to try and keep a certain amount of rational thought, along with your amazement and wonder. Ive been having some really interesting experiences lately, i feel in some way more aware of the miracle of life, and the miracle of being conscious. Its like beginning to break through the dream like monotony, where you can see a miracle before your very eyes but not even notice it. I'm sure tripping and meditation have led me to this, both have changed my view on life for the better.

'Is the collective consciousness contacting you?'
Yes. It was a noetic bolt to the crown. A mushroom induced spontaneous kundalini awakening. Six weeks of mental torture. Now my balls and right above my ass crack are always buzzing. Almost uncomfy.

"..it is clear in studying the various aspects of the body, that the heart for example has its own intelligence and its own way of knowing, it has a very strong electrical field, there are ways in which one person's heart and another person's heart can become entrained when they are in proximity, so this begins to lean toward the idea of our connections and of the collective consciousness that can occur from our heads, from our hearts, and hopefully from our souls and beyond.."

can't become too attached to rational thought either, that would just bee cutting oneself off from the buzzz of life.
accept the past as past, and all thought of it as mere memory.
i am grounded when i feel connected to myself and the earth. others may feel grounded when thinking like everyone else. to each their own.

I find trying to think like everyone else boring and painful. I think its like trying to squeeze a round peg into a square hole.
