Creepy...
#8035682 - 02/17/08 09:53 PM (15 years, 11 months ago) |

I was stoned the other night with some friends and picked up a book called "how the universe works". Flicked through it, and in bold in an inset box about halfway through the book, was a quote by a man called Carl Sagan and it said
"We are starstuff, we are the universe made manifest, We are the universe, become conscious of itself"
and then I thought to my sig, which is a thing I thought up one night whilst on shrooms, more than a year ago.
Creepy

I have sigs turned off, but I always enjoyed what Carl Sagan wrote about.

my sig says
I am a figment of my own imagination. I am a part in this universe .: I am the universe experiencing itself. I am the universe questioning itself.

Then there can be no other conclusion that Carl himself has taken over your mind. You now write for him on his behalf.

Yeah, everything in the universe not to mention every single living creature on earth is made of stardust from the Big Bang ( ), which exploded outward from an infinitely small point. The oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen that form the building blocks for the human body are the same materials that reside in celestial bodies. It's like that Moby song 'We Are All Made of Stars!' 
Everything in the universe is thus one and descended from the same single event and composed of the same material (stardust)... "we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively." Whoaaaa man pass the grass.

If you want a challenge, answer these two questions:
1: At what point did organic molecules form that were able to produce DNA/RNA?
2: When did "life" take on intelligence?

andy,
1. The first forms of life were created by the reactions between the building blocks of life(organic matter and amino acids, the building blocks of DNA/RNA). These heterotrophic organisms fed on the raw organic matter. When they died, their remains fueled the evolution of new simple organisms.
2. Who says that intelligence hasn't existed all along? Maybe the universe is intelligent. I mean...it created us, right?
OR- Intelligence is just an abstract idea created by humans to make us feel special.
take your pick.

Hey, you really should.
It'll make me feel special.
On a side note, I took a 25mg 2C-E trip the other night and did some N2O . Let me tell you, I thought I had it all figured out. Every time I would have one of those nitrous 'out-of-body experiences' I thought that humans were only here to experience the world around us.
I don't think you can go wrong with that mentality, unless you like experiencing bad shit/shit that's bad for you.

OH MAN! just use the search. There's plenty of info on here.
but just to give you a summary, some people describe a big hit of nitrous as 'similar to a DMT breakthrough'. I've never tried DMT, so I don't know about that, but I now know why they call it HippieCrack.

I'd like to try DMT, but I'm not too crazy about putting any kind of MAOI in my body.

I don't think you have to take an MAOI if you smoke good DMT. I think that's only if you're eating it or drinking aya, so that it doesn't get destroyed by the enzyme,monoamine oxidase, in your stomach.

Speaking of MAO's ... they say that chocolate contains phenethylamine, but normally it won't have any effect because it's broken down before it can reach the brain. However, if one were to use an MAOI then eat a bar of chocolate, something might happen. Has anyone ever tried this?

I don't know much about DNA/RNA or any shit like that, nor do I know anything about carbon particles, I'm one of those common borderline acid head thinkers that blur the line between science, acid-reality headspace and the whole 'meaning of it all'
I think science has a lot to offer in terms to answers in questions, but as the mighty opening line on x-files "the truth is out there" which I firmly believe.
I think it is in the human mind, aided with science, logic, experiences and whatnot, but argument hinders this kind of thing and also helps it grow at the same time.
Two steps forward, one step back kind of thing.
Dunno, I just thought it would be good pub material

Why scared? Keep the dosage down, maybe half the standard to start, then go from there. And remember - we all have DMT in our brains which goes into effect when we dream at night.

It would appear you are correct about there being phenethylamine in chocolate, and if you took an MAOI something might happen, but I think it's unlikely. There are lots of drugs in the phenethylamine family, and they have a very wide range of effects that are not necessarily hallucinogenic or 'fun' like the drugs in the 2C family.
it could be worth a shot though, i guess, but I wouldn't try it without doing a lot more research...which might be hard to find about this particular situation.

astronomers have found that there are amino acid strains way out in dark dust clouds in deep space. This was one of the more interesting lectures during my astronomy class here at SIU.
Basically life just needs these amino acids to keep building up into other things. proteins, etc.

I had a thought the other day..
I thought that DMT in the brain could possibly be used as an 'escape pod' for the soul, so if the brain detects that the body is dying, it releases the DMT so that the 'soul' is left in DMT oblivion, with the machine elves or whatever.

Someone should do like a short video that shows the Earth, then pull back to show the Solar System, then the galaxy, then more of an outer view, then eventually show a bunch of elves pulling the universe around with strings.

Imagine if when you tripped on DMT you just end up in some inter-dimensional pub with pervert smurfs, wayward aliens and forest gnomes all trying to roofie your drink.
I think your assessment is closest to being correct. This is exactly what happens when you take DMT:

well it would require an mao-b inhibitor, which is much rarer than mao-a inhibitors
basically mao-a breaks down indoles, mao-b breaks down phenethylamines
