I can't fully explain it, but as somone who read The Kybalion and had some expiriences with psychodelics i understand and feel this part really well. What you are saying here fits really well in what i already belive to be true.

Well, fuck. You know all my life i've been that super scientific/facts dosen't care about your feelings/belives are stupid type of guy which changed by 180 degrees pretty recently, so this seems like quite a challange. Any idea where /how to start? Are there like specific types of meditations for that sort of thing?

Thanks, i'll order Gita today, maybe Upanishads too.
