I hate the feel of pot. I feel completely insane, paranoid. Curl up into a little ball and cry. Then I eat a lot. I know some people really like it and it calms them down. Amazing how people vary in...

For many anxiety disorders, mild anti-depressants are like taking insulin for diabetes. Something brain-wise is off. Prozac doesn't make me euphoric at all, just not as easily rattled. I am still...

No, not diagnosed and never medicated for it, so I don't think I am. But I've been told I am over-the-top psychic by friends. Whatever my 'abilities' are, in that regard, I shy away from thinking of...

Hi Aragorn, I take a small amount of prozac for anxiety and its helped me tremendously without side effects. As far as psychedelic drugs go, they are NOT addictive. I can't even see anybody becoming...

And I am one. Way too overwhelming and sanity threatening for me. Schizophrenia runs in my family. That brings up another interesting point. If you have psychoses in your immediate family, drugs may...

More Pinchbeck. I really enjoyed his story about a bad trip. This too, brings up a lot of questions about the true nature of mental realms and ultimate reality.

On optimism.

When I was young I was afraid of death and didn't believe in an afterlife. After much agonizing I realized that absent all evidence either in support of or against an afterlife, the...

. While Pluto is associated with endings and death, it is also connected with transformation, resurrection, regeneration and rebirth.

If I remember correctly, Chuckie, Temple Grandin emphasized how, from her observations of self and prey animals, the person with autism has a sense of the world that is like a prey animal. This...

That sounds right, intuitively. We have to disregard science materialists when it comes to the matter of consciousness, because they don't operate intuitively but from 'logic' and atheism. I wonder...

Fascinating! Let the mass neutering begin. We will need a benign dicktaker for that I guess! :D

The stock market is a soulless numerical dreamscape, part of "the economy" which capitalists treat like a delicate child that must be nurtured and indulged. It may as well be a tulpa, without a...

Interesting thoughts. I get the impression that a tulpa is something like a character co-created in a dream within and with the mind of a greater entity of some kind, or a greater field of...

You're welcome, Aianawa! Happy to twig your memory about him. I find a lot of esoterica difficult to comprehend and overly imaginitive, but Pinchbeck seems to be onto something, though he was off...

So cool. Have been watching him for the last few months. Love 'Heckle Fish' Gives the podcast just the right light touch. Alternately serious, funny, curious. I like that he is a skeptic but NOT a...

Will watch more of this tonight. I usually just blow off this kind of thing as it strikes me as paranoid, but this woman went into it as a skeptic, so she has some credibility, I feel. Thanks for the...

I find Daniel P fascinating. This is just one example of his writing that's illuminating...

The collective unconscious working through the subconscious drive for the protection of the herd and then the morphic field the herd creates feeding back into the collective unconscious, altering it...

But Wind, we're meat bags and we've managed super consciousness, so why couldn't metal and silicone, arranged as filaments, rather than rocks be able to accomplish something similar? Based on what...

I agree, Frank. I think it was really late (or early) when I wrote this out. Had I reflected on it more, I would say the exact same thing. I think what we are describing, too, might be called morphic...
