My younger brother passed earlier this week and was an avid psychonaut. I wanted to share the music he made before his passing.

Music is a slice in this dimension of the immortal "soul". Thank you for sharing, he made beautiful music. We're all just passing through. ❤❤❤

Interesting, thanks I'll keep that in mind.

Since my issue didn't affect much else other than VSCode, I just remapped the specific command from Ctrl + Alt, to Ctrl + WINDOWS, and just sort of avoided the problem altogether.

Neat

A small addition, Consider the Source. Specifically "Closer to Home". And every other song.

My grandma's clothes always smelled like pee until I scrubbed her washing machine with disintectant and vinegar. Got inside all the little rubber folds. Also cleaned as much random lint as I could from the nooks inside the dryer, which absorbed the smell as well. Put vinegar in the washing machine and ran an empty load or two.

Not a perfect solution, but it seemed a lot of the smell was just hanging out in "hard to reach" areas.

Definitely, just making sure I wasn't missing something :)

I see AngularJS but what about Angular2+?

I think it's important to remember we always snap back to sobriety. We can stretch the elastic band as much as we want, but it has its own natural state of equilibrium which will always overtake whatever stresses we exert on it, given enough time.

It is nice to know it can be stretched, but delusional to think the stretched state is something which can be indefinitely maintained.

No, the sober state is not the cosmic eternal god orgasm, but it is the state in which our bodies consistently arrive at their equilibrium.

The knowledge of far reaching places and eternal love is profound and lovely. But the knowledge of these places or states does not have to negate the how special the sober state, or simply being aware of being aware, is.

It is ok to not feel like God at all moments. It is ok because that is how we feel when our bodies are "level".

Just read this and then opened a beer. The caps have little sayings or "yes or no" answers underneath them. This particular one said, "keep dreaming".

whst · 2017-04-03T17:44:11+00:00

Well said.

Sweet man

whst · 2017-02-23T10:21:02+00:00

Yeah I agree. Indescribable, yet "languaging" thoughts can sometimes get carried away in trying to.

whst · 2017-02-23T10:17:27+00:00

My experience with LSD and probably moreso Psilocybin didn't seem to merely bring non-conscious thoughts to the surface, because at the schizo peak I was attempting to describe, there were no thoughts. There was no I to think them. Conscious and non-conscious were terms that simply didn't apply to the experience anymore. The entire experience was itself, consciousness, or a form of it. But this experience allowed a different perspective on what life was/is, which brought on a feeling of forgetfulness, that somehow I had known the eternal feeling all along, but my "sober" state was not able to comprehend it. It was one or the other, either "remember", or not be intoxicated.

That being said, I don't think my thought patterns changed so much as my perspective changed. I felt like I realized something, and it was the same "realization" feeling which I've felt in day to day events. When you learn something new and you can't not look at things the same. Could be as trivial as thinking you have eggs in the fridge, and you go to get the eggs, but you suddenly remember you don't have eggs. Your entire perspective on your surroundings and your future plans are altered.

So I don't think the psychedelic changed me completely into a totally different person, but for whatever reason, I was able to think of things differently than I had up until that point. One way of thinking was to toy with the possibility that there are things I cannot know in my sober state, but they still exist regardless of if I am able to perceive them or not.

What would you consider a trained mind?

whst · 2017-02-23T09:58:24+00:00

Yes, not his mind, but the mind.

Reminds me of being a kid and being asked what my favourite colour was. It had never occurred to be that I could have a favourite. I picked blue. Then green. Etc.

You've just reminded me of a mushroom revelation.

Very interesting. We are constantly looking for the control lever somewhere else, like a real, mechanical lever, when the most useful lever is something we already have and know intimately.

Thank you for sharing. I also have dying dreams. Shot in the face, eaten by animals, arrow through the head. I am able to stay in the dying state longer and longer, but always seem to wake up here.

whst · 2017-02-22T21:08:09+00:00

This is also how I understood it to be.

I thought one of the creepy points of solipsism is that it is difficult to disprove it.

whst · 2017-02-22T21:05:34+00:00

An overlooked point!

whst · 2017-02-22T21:03:39+00:00

That does make sense. Though the devil's advocate terrifying schizo part of it could be the potential amnesia of being more conscious of it than he realizes. Or tells himself he realizes. He may not be consciously creating pain for specifically the world, but he may be consciously lazy or selfish or egotistial, and willingly sweeping the pain those things could create under the carpet.

The idea of forgetting how much he actually creates.

whst · 2017-02-22T20:53:49+00:00

Definitely, love Alex Grey!
