Hey guys, pretty new to all this but I recently had the most earth shatteringly amazing experience on an inward journey on LSD. After reading the psychedelic experience I had LSD, put some psychedelic music on and kinda meditated/listened to the music. After probably 30 minutes the visual hallucinations pretty much stopped and i fell into my own mind! I was lost in there. Then my mind no longer existed, i was my soul, no ears, no eyes, no thoughts, i just was. It was amazing and the most overwhelming joyous experience i have ever felt. I felt like i was freed from my mind (which was a prison i guess). Am i missing something because i can't really understand why someone would 'watching a movie while tripping' or anything like a thread i just read 'best movie while tripping', are they simply experiencing the visuals and enjoy seeing distorted colours etc.? Or do they watch the movie during the onset and comedown (or re-entry or entrapment or whatever you want to call it )? Surely there are others on here that much prefer the inwardly jourrney similar to what i experienced? I literally fell into my own mind and was lost in there for a while, left this plane of existence and arrived in one where there was no time. Furthermore, any tips on reaching this state and prolonging there? I guess meditation and stuff, and concentrating on the music seemed to help. Thanks for reading
spiritual psychedelic experiences are beautiful... but they won't enlighten you any more than, say, a single meditation session would. there's only so much you can "think" before you have to "be", which LSD can't give you but it can be a part of your path. although i guess nothing can give this to you, because it's not something to hold and it is not separate from anything else. i love the journeying but find that i don't usually go there on drugs, mainly because of my surroundings. i do that when i'm sober. i have a friend who literally can take 5 hits of great acid, laugh and stumble around for a couple of hours and then be perfectly fine. it's different for everybody... i think, ideally, you have a nice balance of both- it's no fun being all deep and serious ALL the time
I understand that i didn't experience anything beyond what i guess an expert meditator can/may experience, the word nirvana comes to mind about the sphere of existance i found my soul in (no space, no time, no thoughts, no senses). And i guess the LSd was a key i used to get there (or a shortcut some might say...)
if i ever sell lsd i now have a slogan....Lsd, a shortcut to nirvana...What living thing wouldnt take something with a slogan like that lmao
grinners, youre not weird, i also think its retarded to sit around and watch a movie on acid. i do it to help get to sleep at like hour 12. and yeah some people dont really benefit from things like acid while others like me benefit more from drug experiences than sober meditation.
Watching a fondly remembered childhood movie is a wonderful way to come down imo (star wars ep 4 = wonderful)
haha watching movies is definitely one of the least ideal things to do while tripping. but its kinda nice on the comedown, and i've done it a few other times when there was nothing else to do and we needed something to draw our attention. the psychedelic experience is about the inward journey. it sounds to me like you had a pretty far-out experience, and reached a point that very few people have reached. you should consider yourself blessed. how many times have you tripped? its not about the goal, it is about knowing the goal. you should not seek to extend this state. you must free yourself from all desire. you have everything you need right here. allow what you experienced to spill over into your everyday life, and actualise it there. knowledge without action is useless. when it is time it will find you, until then be patient. you can't just learn of this and then come back and seek to regain it. to forget something after you have learned it is a vain venture. this kind of thing pervades through every molecule of your being. why were you freed? what did being free entail? how was this different from your everyday life? who are you really? when did this happen? meditate on these questions, you must. lmao. but seriously.
LSDs medicine man, it can heal you but it's not gonna cure you. There is nothing blasphemous about taking LSD for fun (though I think watching TV. on it is a complete waste, Go outside, lay under the stars!!!). LSD may help you see the path, but it ain't gonna bring you there. LSD isn't the real answer man, whatever you experience on LSD is already inside of you. It's a soul mirror. Now don't worry this is a good thing, don't stop, but you will soon come to a point man that you realize you don't really need it.
