if you've dissolved the ego, or have seen yourself just as another part of the great gestalt of which we are all part, or have seen from the foundation that all is energy... ... and subsumed this into your new paradigm... ye kinda gotta get along with the rest of the world still too... "I".... aaah eeee.
i was reading this book by jiddu krishnamurti, and it was talking about enlightenment and living in regular society. it went on to say something about not leaving society to be a hermit or to live in a commune. i was living in a commune while i read that line and i cracked up. im back in society now and better than ever.
If you say so... perhaps one day we will all be one and the same, but right now, we are very much seperate. Ill respect your beliefs, but someone else might call it drug induced.
glad to know you're reading his material, i think it's pretty good too. the big I will blind the third eye
When on mushrooms or intense bud trip, I can sense ego going away, but when I sober up it slowly comes back. I think I read someone saying that enlightenment can be reached with hallucinagens, but like a helicopter, can't stay there forever. To be always enlighted, you must travel up there on foot. IMO it's a long road, but probally worth taking.
oh oh.... theres that line... dunno who came up with it... probably a bumper sticker!... if you think you are enlightened, try living with your parents/family for a week. "the big I will blind the third eye" class. i might go stick that up on my wall.... woah! no way! just realised, that'd be like an autosuggestion for blinding your third eye! sheeshkebabs! it at least needs a continuation starting with "unless..." or something like that. cripes, what a dangerous thing to go saying to people's subconscious and their hypocampus. no... hypothalymus i meant. ... no, now i'm confused... which one do i mean? *takes lable based language round the back for some rage sex*
