my point is no one's going to understand everything or else they would be a god, all we can do is home to understand more than we did yesterday.

Psychedelics have taught me a lot, but strangely most of my revelations have been while sober as apposed to while tripping. Thinking about trips is the most mind expanding aspect, in my experience.

Converting your conscious existence into a boundless intelligent electron array may get you closer to understanding the fact that you will never understand everything at once.
First of all, there is the epiphanie that not only are there things that you are aware of as unknown, but there also exists a deeper level of unknown that you are unknowingly unaware of...
We don't know exactly how many planets exist in your galaxy. We are also not yet aware of the unamed/undiscovered objects that also exist in our galaxy.
Isn't the universe fun? Wouldn't it also be fun to see the edge of the universe if there were one? Like being on the edge of the universe looking out into another void more void that the vaccum of space? Or would you merely be looking at the back of your own head?

well i kinda think space is a metaphor or something to our existance one this planet as an individual. or something of that such. I kinda lean toward intellagent design cause i still stick by that meaning is the true meaning of live. in other words i like to say, in this carzy mixed up world there is no reason for reason to exist. or nothing can have meaning unless everything else does.

The biggest elements of space revolve around a centered attraction, as do the smallest elements of physics. When you compare the electron paths around the nucleas of an atom, then consider each of our cells have a nucleas surrounded by a cell wall, and that cell wall and that nucleas are made up of the same atoms that the biggest planets in our solar system are made up of, then I would definitley have to agree with your thought.

yeah, the inner workings of existence are incredible and because we're human we can only scratch the surface, but still it's the only uncharted territory left.

Even if it doesn't lead to a unified field theory, you can still learn some immutable truths about life on earth.

i have always marvelled at the uncanny similarity between electron-nucleus relationships, and solar systems. like most of life, many patterns are repeated, yet remain different. the geometry of life is beautiful.

you know psychedelics tend to make things just really real for me specially the more i master being a medicine man. things just get really real, syn ch with stuff and metaphorically, and i dare say punny. I dunno about anyone else but i focus on not hallucinating and not getting fucked out of my mind. i just pretty much take it and do massive energy work cause it alows me to agument my flow so i can put energy places one normally cant and the mind effects to feel emotions i cant always feel
