I apologize in advance for posting so much today. I just have so many thoughts about tripping and what i think when i do and none of my friends really do it, they are mostly into the whole opiate thing. Whenever i talk to them about things like this i am labeled an idiot and out of my mind and shit, which is ironic becuase i think im more in my mind then they are... anyways my point of this thread. I usually listen to some sphongle while i trip and they have a song called "the herb garden".(the band is hallucinogen actually i have it labeled wrong in itunes) this once particular night i was listening to it in my room and caught onto section about 1 min or so into the song... it goes like this "You have heard of the Yeti? The abominable snowman. That is of course not an animal or a prehuman being, that is originally one of the shamans gods. The real name is Banjankri, that means the shaman of the forest. So therefore nobody will ever find the Yeti in nature, because you have to go in trance and then you can find the Yeti easily." "The yeti loves to drink schnaps too, so he's like a real shaman and he, uh, if you want to contact him, you have to put some alcoholic offerings uh, in front of the forest" Now this last part is most important. i began thinking holy shit!!! i might be able to see the yeti tonight!!! My mind began racing and going 100 miles a minute at the thought of meeting this being. I started thinking okay ill go get some beer and walk into the woods and see what happens...this is a completly idiotic sounding idea. I knew i would not meet a physical entity but rather maybe a spiritual one that would come walk me through some kind of rite of passage. When i got LSD a while ago from my friend his words haunted my thougts he said "REMEMBER, nothing is better than a beer on LSD!" I began thinking maybe he had seen him and wanted me to?!! But i was not ready at the time, i was too scared and i regret it everyday, i swore that the next time i got the chance i would go and not be scared. Has anyone else experienced this kind of uhmm..."rite of passage" for lack of better words? -sorry for length =( video of Christian Ratsch the man speaking in the song http://teleomorph.blogspot.com/2006/12/christian-ratsch-on-google-video.html light your mind!!!
