What advice would you give to a new Hippie?

Psychadelics are like a telephone. Once you get the message hang up.

But don't be reluctant to call again. :sunny:

 

be a real hippie by doing something to make the world a better place. Thats what i do and i am a old hippie. I have been recycling since the 60s and started a recycling center in the 70's and built green homes in the 80's and ran recovery homes in the 90's and opened up homeless shelters for transgendered people in 2000's and am rebuilding and restoring an old farm from the 1820's and all along i planted trees and gardens on other people properties and educating people about all of the previous things. Yes there were times along that path that i dropped acid like in the 60's and 70's and smoked and grew herb in the 70's and 90's and 2000's and donated much of it to aids homes so the main thing is never to get under control of $ or power.. Many have called me crazy and thats a positive thing because the others who have called me such are still enslaved to the corporate life.

Yes be yourself but allow yourself to be more while not locking in who you are. Yes i went to college even though i never went to high school. However, i did it for enrichment and paid my own way.

Know that you / me are just a tiny drop in this thing we call the world and that there is a great power so big that we can't even comprehend but we should surely respect.

There is karma and be glad when you get it immediately like i did the other day. For instance i saw this log laying over my property but mostly on my neighbors. I thought it would be good firewood but then a voice told me to let go and well i did for a day or so then i got a chain back all sharpened up nice and i grabbed the log and i started cutting and under the other side was an old glass and metal insulator which use to carry wires and it quickly dulled out my sharp chain. 5.00 down the drain in a flash. I should have listened to above. I usually don't do this (not listening) but i did it that day. I suffered quickly for it.. Yes i do still fall for immediate gratification at times and i suffer for it too. Thankfully i don't try to do the bigger things that will make me suffer many times over. Know that doing perfect brings perfection but doing wrong brings many times the wrath. Those odds are not very good. Now there will always be times where the shit will hit the fan to test our faith in above and those times we must accept and keep faith. There is also power in prayer especially if its from someone with perfect love like my mom. You see i gave up my life to be my moms caregiver and things have gone so incredibly wonderful. What happens when she dies will be my test. Hopefully i will release all i have accumulated to those in need before she passes and there will be no major testing.

Yes i do believe in yahshua also known as Jesus to many. I do not though follow religions or go to churches or associate with groups of followers and my ultimate understanding it to keep one foot in this world and one foot in the next. I want to be ready at all times for this transition and so keeping karma clean and sharing about myself as i did here is a part of that. However, if i didn't share it and tried to portray myself as a wonderful perfect person woe be to me and my karma would really be in for a major testing or a SHTF time

ALSO: fasting is very good for one as it cleanse you of any blockages and that can be mental ones as well. I usually fast for at least 12 to 19 day between thanksgiving an the new yr.. I drink tea and black coffee (which helps to reduce the appetite to get started) and some broth water from any broth i can get or even from simple broth packets that have no chemicals in them. I am not into water that much but i will drink other things made with water. Water can be very good for you depending on where the water comes from. recycled water from cities has no value or energy. Its dead and actually can hurt you. I happen to live near a creek with minerals thats comes from 150 yards away / spring / rain runoff off a clean hillside. That is some excelenet water and has lots of energy. Make sure you check out the videos on water

Love N Gratitude for water

I am always thankful for my water from my creek and from my well and from my spring and from my stream but most of all i love when it rains as things seem to grow so much better with rain water

also here is some healing techniques i have used

I also have been healing myself for many yrs. I found out a long time ago there is more cost to going to a hospital than there is if one deals with their own injuries.
For cuts and gashes i have used any dried green leafy material to clot the blood.

For any upset stomachs or feelings of internal sickness from foods eaten or water drank i quickly burn some toast and eat the charcoal which absorbs everything like a filter.

For pain well some alcohol does help but the body can also produce its own chemicals if one learns to be patient and allow the body to create its own natural pain killers.

Borken bones are another thing. It is best to go to a hospital or to a local doctor who can reset and cast the bone in place.

Drinking lots of water is always best to keep the kidneys clean as well as eating lots of radishes. They break down kidney stones.

The computer also helps and recently i learned about shingles and healed my mom with vitamin C and B 12 and L lyseine and i kept her bathed in apple cider vinegar which makes an acidic medium which the shingles (chicken pox0 virus doesn't like. http://www.earthclinic.com/CURES/shingles2.html

Old fashion clorox bleach diluted in water will kill germs in many places. I use it periodically for rinsing my mouth out to kill germs when i get a feeling that i might be getting an infection. I also use salt wrapped up in paper towels to lay in the gums to absorb any infection in a bad tooth etc.. It may take a few days but it works especially if you use the diluted bleach with it in between packing your gums.

Drinking applecider vinegar with water and honey makes for a great natural cleanser to the bowels. The honey and water makes it easier to drink.

Stressed or pulled tendons or muscles need time to heal. Its best to just rest and not use them. They will reattach themselves to the bones if you tear them.

Any headache issues its best to take as many hot chili peppers as possible. It also helps to keep your blood thinned. The mexicans hardly ever have heart problems due to the hot peppers they eat.

Asprin is also a great thing to have around to help with simple pain and to help with any heart issues. My almost 90 yr old mom takes it when she has any feelings of stress in her heart or to help with back pain.

I also give her glucosamine and chondroitin which lubricates the cartiledge between the joints. It takes at least a month for enough to get built up for it to start working.

Eating lots of your homegrown veggies verses lots of meats is also good for the body. Many wild onions grow everywhere and also dandylions which can be added to any soups or salads. Garlic is also the easiest thing to grow planted the summer before in july or august will provide a great crop by june the next yr. The garlic will help with immune issues. also no animals or pest eats them.

sunchokes are also great to grow and will grow everywhere even in bad soil. Some people call them jerusalem artichokes.

Tomato's are great to eat and great for your health as well. Easy to grow for most people. Also grow yams or sweet potato's which are very healthy and easy to grow. Just dig a hole and drop them in good soil and keep watered but now wet.

 

never trust the man.

 

Be True to Yourself. Follow where your higherself leads you. Harm None. Remember, life is for learning and we all make mistakes. Forgive yourself life's lessons and grow from the experience.

Most ppl have their own agenda, so don't fall for what others think, think for yourself. If it doesn't sound honest, it probably isn't. Actions speak louder then words do, be observant and see how things Feel in your Spirit. You are your own Spirit Guide.

Try a little Response Testing. This method works for everything.

Stand before the object/feeling/person. Whatever your testing. Thinking about it.

If whatever you are 'testing' is drawing you to it. It could be in the form of feeling or physically being drawn forward. It would indicate that the subject in question was a positive reaction and would be beneficial to you.

If you feel or are physically moved backwards to a person, place, or thing, that would be a negative reaction and probably not good for your body, mind or spirit.

LSD-25 can be beautiful, but you really don't need a drug/chemical to find yourself.

Bright Blessings on your journey

sh, original hippie ( I say original bc I don't associate myself with old, life is eternal)

 

well i figured i better take my own advice so i started my fast today

 

Remember, you may become the man

 

I don't believe you can become a new hippie. Hippies "were" people from a different time. I wish it could be replicated but, I doubt it. You could emulate the hippie lifestyle. I am 58, was born in Modesto, CA, hung out in the haight and 19th St. Park. I LIVED the life daily, I knew no other way.
I believe to summarize the whole movement would be to say: we got tired of being told to kill people we didn't know, didn't want to kill anybody, BUT, we weren't allowed any VOICE. Like we couldn't say; "no thank you, they have guns too ya know, they might shoot me dead!" or VOTE or DRINK A BEER BEFORE GETTING KILLED. We just finally got pissed, started finding effective ways to bring change and attention to these outrageously insane things our government was asking us to do...and then we found out all the politicians were liars!!!!! We took acid, held hands and kept singing..."all we are saying...is give peace a chance". That's pretty much the whole thing in a nutshell...then their are the side stories...meeting hot guys at moratoriums and following them them to LA.....yeah, it was wild. We tasted it all, forgetting everything our parents told us, we had found they were lying and drunk!!!! We had each other. peace, Cheryl Blevins Conti aka Spotty Body

 

1. Lighten up.
2. F**K labels.

 

FORGIVE, don't FORGET. Forgiving what others may have done to you is essential. Forgetting just insures it happens again.

Do so as you choose.
I believe the first step is realizing all the poisonous things you may do in your daily activities that you don't even realize. Sometimes we do simple things, like having negative words towards someone, or doing something we don't really believe in without knowing. If you want to live your beliefs it will first be a process of rewiring what you do naturally. It may be easy now to do some immoral things that you do, but soon it will come more natural to follow your beliefs. Begin by being kind to all you come across. I believe the rest will eventually come.

 

Really being hip is being less focused on the external and more focused on the internal. Learn who you truly are without all the cultural programming. Then cross your fingers its a good thing

Lose the label, don't live in the past.

 

Its good that you want to be a hippy, but to make it official, I (as an older man) would have to tell you "Get a job! Get a haircut!".

There.
Now its official.

Welcome!

 

Why get a haircut exactly? I don't see the necessity.

 

I think that if we lean on the flower power lifestyle of the sixties and keep that in our lives we can be that! I so want to raise my kids this way! Rev J! We are close. I am in Walnut Creek!

 

Don't hold onto anger. It is a poison that will just harm you and not the one you are angry with. This is why I personally let things go.

Find love. Give it and reciev it. It can be the love of a friend, a pet, family, friend, a lover, spouse, your child, whichever, all or some.
Giving and receving love has really made my life worth living.

Work enough to make a living. Don't live to work.

Expand your mind. Expansion for me has worked best through music, learning (books, classes, learning from others), psychadelics, life experiences (live music, traveling, spending time with good people)

Surround yourself with positive good people. Let the negative emotion draining ones go.

Don't care about what others think about your lifestyle. They don't have to walk in your shoes or live your life. If you are happy and not harming others that is what matters.

Find inner happiness, love, and peace. I feel if one doesn't love themself how can they love someone else fully. I feel inner happiness and peace (though at times it leaves me for a short while) is essential for me to live and be productive.

Trust people but use common sense of course

Help the world in small and big ways.

 

the hipest thing you can ever be is an individual with a mind of your own.
