Am I only the person who just avoids mirrors now, like I know what's going to happen if I keep looking into it, I'm going to waste near 20min looking into it, I don't even put my head up when washing my hands otherwise a simple minute in the bathroom is going to turn into way too many minutes.
Lacan writes that we first misinterpret our being as infants, when we first see our reflections in the mirror. We think this is us, and we are never corrected, in fact this idea is enforced. The image in the mirror is pleasing, because unlike the subjective reality of disjointed, chaotic sensations, the mirror shows us a unity, a whole, one parcel of stuff. But this is just optics. This is a picture. We are not a parcel. You are not looking at yourself in the mirror, only at your bio-interface. It's as though your only model for what you are is a real-time CT image of your brain. Like the infant, you would quickly deduce this is a representation of you, given it correlates to things you experience. And if you grew up with only this image, and with everyone else having these CTs and using them as models of themselves, you would simply learn this. There is no correct model of what you are, they are all fabrications. Knowing comes after being, and i don't know if knowing can turn around and address being to its full degree. I don't think so. Being overflows.
Mirrors bring me right to my center. A sort of ritualistic happening where in the archetype of the mirror being the bearer of truth, becomes a catalyst for releasing the truth that is my inner being. When doing this ritual, it puts me in an intense state of direct feeling and nowness and gives an openness and acceptance of the self as a whole. Tis one of the most powerful meditations I know of. Try gazing at the mirror as if you were looking from you heart and soul, not your eyes. Your body will begin to align itself, and this deep opening will occur.
I pissed in a backyard/garden area, above some scultupre rocks and such and when I came in I said to my friend "Holy shit that was beautiful. I'm never taking another piss for granted again." Yeah. Next piss in the toilet next day was unfortunately bland.
Hahaha. Either acid covers up the feeling that I have to shit, or I've never had to shit while tripping. I've always imagined that it would be nightmare to trip with all day diarrhea or something.
ive only pooped on shrooms. it was fun, but not too much. the shrooms were tearin up my stomach. barfing, on the other hand, was like magic.
Agreed, bathrooms are awesome. Mirrors, pooping, showers, tiles, especially with patterns.. All brilliant. My first trip-shit was on mushrooms, it was great, I had never experienced such a legendary bowel movement.
I dont mind doing it on shrooms or acid, and with my schedule I always end up having to. Something I dont like is wiping multiple times after you are clean and you dont know when to stop pushing lol. Also you kind of feel your entire intestinal system pushing and koving when you are shitting, its so weird.
Don't know if LSD had anything to do with it but I had a kind of hard time shitting last time I dropped..
I always find that the most intense part of the trip is usually in the bath room... I ussually enjoy shitting on psyches, again cranks things up a notch I'll pass thanks!
I was spun like a record and had to shit, out in the woods... Most awkward feeling ever. It took me a bit to even start to understand how to poop, for lack of any better explanation. I had a little bathroom cubicle set up, a sheet around a coupla trees, and I'm just hanging onto this tree so I didn't fall over, feeling like I was in some sort of perverse, coprophile tango number with it. Bizarre.
Last time g/f and i trip on acid she went to the bathroom. 25 mins later she comes out and says she could not find which way was up.Lol I have a close friend that i trip with often and i can alway tell when i am starting to trip because the wall paint in her bathroom almost turns into a liquid sheet on paint on the wall.
