Recently I was talking to folks who aren’t strangers to tripping on various substances as I was pondering a hypothesis that goes a little something like this:
What if the geometric patterns, shapes, entities and pulsating forms of consciousness they see in the hallucinogenic state are actually real and authentic and what actually underpins the seemingly solid construction we accept as the third dimension whilst wearing flesh on a planet?
I think its an interesting question and one with some fascinating implications because modern science says things like the world as it is is an illusion along with particles being made up of mostly nothing and yet, to us, it all seems solid and reasonable. Contrast this lens with the one tripping and something has to give because one thing I find fascinating is the machine elves and how there are related myths and legends of this spooky clown face that cackles being that which transports Souls to and from this realm which ties in, real well, with the Trickster myth which was one of the first gods man worshipped. There is a ref I read in a text that said similar things about these immensely egoic beings that get a kick out of saying they are the all of everything and how they created humans and the rest which, if expanded to the current climate, makes a lot about a lot make a load more sense because it explains, quite well, the true nature of religion which creates more conflict and dissent than the unification and emancipation it promises. But, thats another topic.
What if oxygen is actually a hallucinogen and, like water to a fish, we are oblivious of the effect as we accept what it gives with no other frame of reference? Dreaming is another hint of this because they are like private hallucinations from which we awaken into a collective version that most do not question. Apart from the schizophrenic that is. Did you know they, unlike “sane” humans, don’t fall for optical illusions? They literally see right through them. Put a couple of digits together, shake well and serve the mix. Tell me if you draw the same conclusion that their view may not actually be more accurate than those well adjusted to such immense social sickness?
Do hallucinogens reveal the truth? Are they simply pleasure trips that generate a state of dysfunction due to the ingestion of toxins that bring these effects? Ironically that is a picture perfect definition of alcohol and yet its for sale everywhere you can think and nobody considers what kicks under the lid when ingested or how it produces its hit. Isn’t that interesting? Better still is how ancient shamanic cultures learned to mix this leaf with that stem and some of these seeds thrown in to create a brew, psychoactive. Scientists looked into this and were perplexed as the biochemical knowledge needed was immense from the samples present to pick as one form was inactive, the other caused inhibition of certain enzymes and the third bought the kick that lets man trip from a sip.
I truly believe that the species we are now is based on ancient drug ceremonies and rituals. The idea of Santa with magical elves that bring presents and flying reindeer with baubles in trees all stem from Siberian shamans who found the animals acting weird after ingesting these shrooms they picked, stuck in the trees to dry then consumed them. Same with witches on brooms as they absorbed the sacrament via their lips which let the astral flight commence. By the way, that word simply means subconscious because the brainwaves and interconnection under the influence are at a differing form of resonance and you can approximate this without taking a thing just by breathing in and out at depth for a circular forty five minutes. That, in itself is quite interesting and you can see the gestation of the perspective that oxygen may be making us trip. I mean, have you ever noticed your breathing at the point of a really, really good orgasm? What about when you’re stressed? Angry and seeing red or mellow and feeling chill? There is an obvious link to all of this that may be so subtle and ever present that most never consider checking it. It may be worth the investment because ancient yogic texts attest that the wise man takes two breaths a minute which is nigh on impossible for most living as they are too stressed to admit they run to the office with an inverted noose around their neck and various trinkets of modern life that may not be in their best interests as they run the treadmill to pay the bills and get around the board as much as they can before it ends.
If I ran the world I’d make all drugs free and legal for the elderly. Can you imagine how rocking the retirement homes would be? People would be queuing up to get in and I’d bet it would make all the difference to those stressing about death when they’d Witnessed altered states of consciousness. I’m quite certain most would say they’d wished they’d done this previously but the stigma and brainwashing kept them thinking drinking was the best. I wonder why this is? Can you imagine the conversations that would kick between the psychonaut grandfather and his second generation kids when they came to visit? How much the world would flip in a couple of generations? Same with suicide attempts. I’ve always championed the therapeutic use MDMA as it works like a lubricant for stuck emotions and generates frank discussion along with amazing introspection and thus believe it should be the first call for PTSD patients, suicidal ideation and marriage counseling as you create lasting beneficial change with a couple of sessions. Guess why they banned it even though it had an amazing track record? Things like this, in contrast to ineffective pills that mainly pimp the placebo effect whilst often inducing other conditions and problems that need – you guessed it – another script make me look sideways at the current System as it appears designed to max ills whilst offering no real solutions beyond repeat business for the corps that are already rich. That and the fact that nature is outlawed tells you all you really need to know about the currently fallen state of man in comparison to the indigenous who, linking back to the vine mix story mentioned, told scientists:
“The spirit of the plants told us what to mix in order to create it”.
When they asked how on earth they came up with this combination from all that grows in the jungle. They, being so clever and advanced with their tenured positions and research grants, scoffed at this and looked at their rituals of asking permission before they picked, chanting and singing songs to activate the spirit and timing the ingestion with moon phases and other prep as simple minded foolishness of the primitive and yet, once upon a when, this type of Knowledge was exceedingly common all around the planet and this, I suspect, is what gave rise to such similar myths and images across the continents. I mean, they didn’t have TV but their regularly scheduled programming was not of this realm hence all the legends of the songlines, spirit land and dreamtime as well. That is another thing thats very important as the culture builds a type of reverence we now call set and setting as well as using these tools as means of initiation in which the boy becomes a man and was purged of his misgivings by coming face to face with them which creates far less dysfunction as he is not carrying the weight of old pain and projecting blame onto those he meets for he Knows his inner realm and is no stranger to Self, comprehend?
If I were to place a tinfoil turban on my head I’d say those at the helm are aware of all of this and sketched out the plan, back when, to do a number on the rest as they kept the best for themselves. Why? Because ignorance is easily exploited and how on earth could you foster nearly endless conflict if everyone clicked that the rest are simply versions of them and all of this takes place inside their awareness as they are an aspect of the divine, incarnated. But, that was another stage of the Game that those who lived clicked and we scroll instead as we take in life via a lens as tech is our drug that allows us to glimpse beyond the veil, in a sense, and soon that too will be implanted as they mix a bit of that and this to release low level hallucinogens into the blood stream along with various other types of psychobiological regulation that will make Techno Sapiens far more civilized in their big golden cage than we of the iron maze. Thing is though, is low level modulation of consciousness really freedom or simply the appearance of engineered bliss in which dissent is impossible as the implants won’t allow it and nor will their impulses ever stop to think:
“Hey, what if I combine this and that with this and brew it then sip?”.
As they will be totally cut off from spirit and plugged in to a digital counterfeit whilst those at the helm (who will be the same as now, I’d bet) will still be partaking as they’ll run a different OS in their heads from the plebs (same as now, I’d bet). As much as things change they tend to stay the same. Unless you dare to think different so if you’re of that bent I’d suggest you take advantage whilst it presents and do the Knowledge because once the chips are down, down, down in your cortex then that option gets defenestrated, real quick, as people are set adrift on the engineered bliss a brave new world brings for the Souls incarnating in to a technologically extended life sentence that pimps their awareness with an increasingly efficient method of mind bending.
Its not the end of the world… But you can see it from here.
Till we meet again
