    Can anyone tell me if I am the only one who learned and/or discusses philosophy smoking one with a friend?

    i have learned a huge amount of philosophy, however generally not talking to friends, but instead by myself. when your with someone else though its easier to strucutree your thoughts but then there is an externally given path. so i see it as easier to do but confined in direction.

    most people however, they dont see marijuana as such a productive tool. or at least see it as a tool but cant produce much with it....

    its great when people here can share their philosophies

    philosophy comes into play in really REALLY high doses. i usually have to take a bunch of gravity hits in a short period of time to get there. i like to just sit in a quiet place and thats when i get to the good stuff, the deep deep philosophical stuff. as mckenna says, you have to get to the place where you say, 'i've taken too much!' which can be hard to do. can you remember the last time that you said to yourself that you've smoked too much, that you're too high? thats where i like to be...pushing the limit, thats where i think the most philosophical stuff comes into play.

    I was really fucked up and I was sitting there listening to music and watching TV, and my friends were there and I remember I came to some big philosophical revelation, without really thinking about it... the problem is I DON"T REMEMBER IT I am so pissed, it sucks so bad

    Don't know if you're serious or not but I do the same thing.

    I'll go out in the woods and get a good buzz going and start asking questions that have been bugging me and the answers just come.

    Or alot of the time I don't know what's bugging me and getting stoned seems to help clear that up.

    I like thinking about various philosophy after a couple of bowls. I don't think about it the same way I do straight and that's one of the reasons why. It's cool to get high with people I've never met before and go off on philosophizing about different things. I watched waking life with some folk I'd met for the first time while smoking some very nice herb and it was one of the best experiences I've had in meeting other stoners.

    I used to have this awesome friend, one of those friends that you can just act like a nutcase and not worry that they will be all "Oh my god, you are such a dork". Anyways, with her it was like talking never got old, and just being able to be so comfortable made our thoughts so much more open and broad-based. We would come to these awesome theories about life and legal processes, the meaning of music and theories/analyzations about nature in relation to human action... it was sweet. Anyways, the thing that makes philosophy so easy with pot is that you don't feel bumbarded by your own insecurities and previous mishaps throughout the day that made you worry and overwhelm your mind. You can just let loose and have a clearer mind, and a clearer channel to your intuition. I love pot!

    Yeah most of the stuff I believe in(philosophically) came to me while stoned.
