Can you read your own mind? Can you read your own body? What about other peoples'? Body AND mind? Can they? More to the point... would you want to? Also worth considering, would they want you to? Some thoughts, some memories, some ideas are best left inside the head of the beholder alone. imho. If you are starting to consider this... be warned, it can be one of the worst headfucks ever. especially stoned.
I'm not stoned and it's frightening. The knowledge, dreams and crazyness of the universe condensed in an eternal, deep, tought. There's no more time, thus no more physical life. Just a giant brain as the earth.
Thats the thing, it wouldn't be a giant brain, it would just be.. pure energy, with no form or size, that knows everything. And if we all "come" from "that" then we would be all-knowing.. but blind to the truth because of some unknown force of something lol..i dunno something like the ego. So I would say we can read your own minds.. not directly though.. maybe subconsciously through dreams, weed, other spiritual experiences etc..
perhaps this unknown force that prevents us from knowing everything is what Christians refer to as the devil, preventing mankind from knowing the true nature of god and the universe? this sounds like a stoned thought but really it isnt
as i said to someone i consider more "tuned in" than myself.... ....using the word "bitch" emphatically, not literally. it's akward and unerving to come to terms with. terrifying, yet reassuring. that thing, that whether you know it or not, your part of, and having taken psychadelics, you have a much greater chance of "comprehending", "understanding", "percieving" that thing, having viewed at/from the Other place. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ highly wise. ---- gurrr. ego. in someone's sig around these parts is a line something along the lines of "the only people who know where the edge is are those who have gone over"... makes me think i never went over... and good job too. someone has to come back to report on what was seen when looking over, in reach of the rim. Unitedversalism. makers of words, dreamers of dreams... we are monkeys with typewriters.
there are times... when words just can't do it. although excrutiatingly annoying at times... boy am i glad it is so right now.
Hey digit! Where ya been man? And yes, words just aren't enough. The only way to know what its like is to experience it LoL, or are we talking about something totally different?
Can you read your own mind? Can you read your own body?... hey nice questions dude if you can see yourself infront of the mirror , ofcourse u can read your own mind and own body ....lol and , if you can see yourself inside your eyes (and other eyes) ... thats okay u can be a Jedi!...LOL
hehe, now why am i thinking of jabba laughing that booming laugh before saying "teeny jedi, teeny jedi, bmawhahahaaaah". and then i remind myself of master yoda, "do, or do not, there is no try".... that one still blows me away today. yipes. i'll continue to "do not" i suppose, until i "do", and doing.... yipes, after tasting, means doing, lucky i manage what i manage the way i manage it... no... that won't have made sence to anyone at all.... maybe theres a couple of you out there with a belly full of mushrooms and a bong in your hand and you grasped every thought behind every concept behind every inclination to put it into those words... the words are clumsy, they trip us up all the time, wewalk with words and walking is the process of catching yourself repeatedly as you continually intentionally start to fall forwards, over and over, self catching. waffle^ doing it for some i've noticed is easier than for others, even easier than making up these silly words to attempt to depict it all. tune monkeys. modal flow monkeys. dichotamon junkies. spastic flunkies in non temporal vibrations. noob entities, being pressed and impressed in the classroom, in the classroom, in the classroom. repetition repetition repetition gets it in, even if it's twisted. our psyche clothes get twisted in our sleep as we toss and turn unaware we're asleep. one place is sleep to the other, hello dream world? heh, perhaps, hardley, perhaps, parlty, i claim no conclusions for you, i do not even declare any conclusions of my own, only this words in this time, for others to chew on while many paths are to come together, to colide, to reconsile, .... or maybe not, it's not for me to say. so i'll stop.
Damn, I love reading your posts man. I dunno what it is but its like kick ass poetry and wisdom. lol. About the "do" and "do not" thing. I should start making my choices based on that! I'm always saying "i'll try". And then I continue to "do" nothing. I dont think anyone can get every concept behind everything in the world. Learning seems to be infinite. And when you think you've "solved" it, it just disolves in the morning sun! As for language, well all that does is trap ourselves, in ourselves? Words never speak the truth. I don't know what your saying in the last paragraph, but I like it!
The only thing stopping us from reaching our ascension is ourselves. Essentially our own matrix we've willingly trapped ourselves in. Even a borderless mind is cut and formed, molded and convinced until the gateway withdraws itself and hibernates. Late is the day the majority will realize perception is reality.
the mind is one powerful thing. my dad has told me stories of back in college when he was all into the minds powers n shit (never did drugs though), he said he would mess around with hypnosis and would hypnotise himself. he said one time he went so deep as to feel he was right next to god and had an incredibly intense experience where he pulled himself out of dieing, something to that affect. But i believe the guy hes real smart, the mind can do some crazy shit
i beleive that this is my last life and that i have reached enlightenment...its hard to put in words but i guess i am a buddhist, i have come to understand what will happen when i die and am eternally greatful for my knowledge i have aquired. love is a big part of my enlightenment, and forgiveness...i wish i could put what i know into words but i dont think i can... but basically i feel bad for everybody else on the planet who doesnt understand what i do, many people have reached the same place i am at and i still have a long time to go. i bet yall have no idea what i am talking about but i will send a link to what i believe happens after death if you'd like to see it
a friend recently shared something he read... that an experienced buddhist of many years said that when he first tried ecstacy (MDMA) he wanted so much to experience life on that level as a permanent, and years later, after attaining enlightenment, he said that is what it was like. Another friend claimed that the state induced by real cannabis was indeed enlightenment, i disagreed and thought enlightenment was a little further. *pat on the back for me because i have some idea of what you're talking about*
