Recently I got some fire cali bud, so I wanted to enjoy it while I had it. In order to do that I smoked some before I laid down to sleep. After I had smoked, I listened to some Terrence McKenna interviews with some real chill background music. After awhile, I was feeling good and baked, so I took the headphones off and decided to fall asleep. It quickly became apparent that I was suspended between realities. When I closed my eyes and let go of my body I was shown what true reality is. Humans are an advanced form of bacteria. As McKenna put it: We're messy, inefficient, and ridden with bugs. We're in this universe to fuck things up. We're here to turn planets like the Earth into hollow shells of what they used to be. Normally, thinking about this would upset me, but I was okay with it. It felt like I had realized my true nature on this planet, to consume and populate. So here I am, floating through my own understanding of how the world works and reassigning pieces into different spots. The experience was absolutely amazing. I woke up today and realized I was still looking at the world for what it was. This upgraded consciousness for me blows my mind even now. I'm no longer angry that the world is headed to hell in a Bugatti Veyron with a concrete-block on the accelerator. Polar bears dying in their natural habitat? Oh well. Civil unrest in China? Meh. Earth going to run out of oil soon? Saw that coming. All of this just made me realize that I'm a cancer-cell floating in the body of eternity. Eternity will probably drive their Eterno-mobile down to the local hospital and fork over 30,000 space credits to get chemo done on the growth. Don't blame me eternity, I'm just doing my thing.
yes that is one cognitive construct for attempting to force understanding onto existence. note that mckenna would also tell you that we are the earth's way of transforming itself, that the earth has been producing more and more advanced methods of transmuting its own matter into more advanced combinations of atoms and molecules. so really, you can believe whatever you choose to believe, its all just opinions and speculation. i would suggest not taking this all to heart, it's just what you think.
Over the past year I've changed my beliefs so many times that this is probably just the next step. I feel like I'm evolving or something.
you are, and youre not alone. all things are evolving, though if you zoom out far enough, what does that even mean? I mean, all time exists now, so really there is not any change, it is just a human mental perception. Everything is change, and the universe is heading for greater and greater novelty, but at the same time, there is no such thing as novelty, if it exists, it exists because it always existed or always was going to exist, however we speak about it. thoughts are to your brain as bile is to your liver. squirt squirt.
I think you've detached yourself from the universe too much. How can you be cancerous to something that you actually are.
You are more bacteria than you are you, according to the latest body census http://www.scientificamerican.com/a...ns-carry-more-bacterial-cells-than-human-ones ZW
The earth is my sandwich, and I am the mold. Just like my body is the sandwich and actual cancer is the mold. If I am too detached, how the fuck did it happen with weed? I thought this was reserved for more powerful psychedelics...
I feel that true evolution would be the continuous rejection of the subscription to social mediocrity... I'm sorry if that's a bit of a shallow, non-spiritual view point, but I don't think I can ever sever all ties between myself and the rest of the human race. I don't think I could ever feel "meh" towards the suffering of my fellow man. If these things are pointless, or inevitable, or not our problem, then I'd chose my ignorance, and the pretense that I can maybe one day help towards building a life of sustainability and equality, rather then accepting myself as a random spasm of reality hmm
It's not that I don't care about anything anymore, I just had the chance to take a step-back and view the world objectively without the constraints of being human. Whatever is happening in the world is now easier for me to understand, grasp, and figure out what I can do to change it.
