I have been really interested in meditation these time and prepare a meditation day this saturday. I will not eat the day before and I have incense and candles and music ready in a calm mood and a calm atmosphere, this saturday I will eat some mushrooms and meditate trough it. as anyone here ever did this and what can I expect or any tips?
Don't fast. Seriously. Eat healthy, generally but don't fast, it's really not good for you. Also don't do drugs while fasting, that's actually really dangerous. I wouldn't recommend you do the mushrooms because meditation is so much more amazing when you achieve it on your own, admittedly it's harder but it's really worth the effort. Meditation is like scuba diving in your mind, you don't have to worry about drowning. Taking shrooms you run that risk. By the way, when you say "meditate through it" what exactly do you mean.

Because everytime i did mush i not only liked the visuals, it was a light part visuals and laugh, but mostly I could think about society and it started me thinking philosophical toughts everyday, since my early teens i've been doing a lot of soul searching and for the last year, i feel i'm happy as to who i am. But you're right, i guess i won't fast, but i nonetheless expect many thoughts and creativity from this. thank you fulfilling life to you man,
Unless you have taken them before, and have a lot of experience,I would not recommend taking mushrooms by yourself without a 'babysitter'. Also, Sebbi's point about the dangers of drugs and fasting is very valid. Don't do it! I once had experience of a freind doing this, and they ended up collapsing an hour or so into the trip and having to be rushed to hospital. They were suffering from low blood sugar, and it could potentially have been quite risky. Also it led to some difficult questions from the hospital authorities. My advice would be to eat a light meal some time before eating the mushrooms. But - I repeat - don't do them alone!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you for your advice but i consider myself quite experienced in mushroom and I have no fear in doing this alone, did it before a lot of times. But I take the fasting advice seriously, just won't eat a T-bone 2 hour before it
Taking mushrooms generally and taking mushrooms for meditation are completely different matters. I'm telling you there is so much that could go wrong with it that you wouldn't even have to consider normally. That's why you always have someone on standby, that's why even the most experienced shamans, who have tons of experience with the most powerful drugs you won't even hear of, still have someone on standby doing any meditative work that involves drugs of any sort. Someone posted something on Astral travel a few threads away and I illuminated some of the dangers there. Please read. I'm saying this for your sake only. Blessings Sebbi
Sebbi, Your advice here is 100% sound and good. I can find nothing at all to add other than my full agreement.
yeah i havent had a psychadelic trip before, however i do know that if you havent meditated before, dont do it for the first time on mushrooms. Meditation should be something, you constantly do, when you say youve prepared a "meditation day" how long are you hoping to meditate for, all day? That could be quite hard, if you havent done it before, although if there a will theres a way.
