Well, for a long time I've always wondered about aliens, ghosts, other spiritual beings in other dimensions, what it's like, and how they would interact and operate, if they even existed at all..

..I've always been interested in the wierd, the strange, the unfamilliar, and I was young when I read about the shaman all over the world which used dozens of plants to either alter consiousness or affect the physical body in some way, to attain some type of natural extacy to connect with nature.

This just completely magnetized to me because I was so interested in strange things, and here these "aboriginal, old, outdated" people were transcending space and time and contacting the ineffable and unfamillar, it only seemed natural, that plants opened doorways to other worlds, just makes sense.

After I had read about all the drug war rhetoric and our how society integrated these ancient plants into our modern age, I realized it was all poppycock, the drug war and the just say no stradegy, so what I did is eventually pursued the types of experiences and effects of the more common hallucinogens, being dmt, lsd, psilocybin, even cannabis when ingested.

I encountered something after my first heavy mushroom trip, I didnt know at the time, really what was going on, but I encountered some type of voice, entity, I took it as the mind behind nature. It relayed information to me, about how our minds work, what's going on in life, and what it's all about, I learned about why I had such a draw for psychedelics and why I found this particular "version" of the psychedelic story, and this story is ancient and working on something very important which is extremely close to culmination..

My dad is a nut about HAM radio, and for those of you that don't know, HAM radio is a type of communication using frequencies to send signals all over the world, to simplify it it's "big walkie talkies." Except you need a fairly good size tower, but anyone with their licence can buy, set up, and get on the airwaves and communicate with anyone else, he's talked to the space station, submarines, it's real neat..

But anyways, yes, frequencies.

Dad does it differently, but plays with frequencies and deals with the exchanging of information, in such a way, and this is precisely how the mind works.

The mind is like an antennae, and you can tune it to different frequencies using certain indole hallucinogens, I'm sure your all familliar with the universal frequency the mushroom tunes you into, or the mental state lsd tunes you to, or the... everything at once channel dmt immediately turns on, but it's there, and it's all waiting for our minds to send the data.

I think this dealing with the other side has more implications than what we think, perhaps it's where all religion is coming from, perhaps it's the alien, that these aliens are the drug molecules, that's how complex they are, wouldn't that be something..

What do you guys think, is there more to the natural psychedelic experience, or is it just a pollution of the mind for a few hours?

I think there's a plan to all this, and it's moving towards the final act.

Personally I am not sure of the final act. I have no real solid information to go off of except certain beliefs and ideas.

I am very much on the fence 50/50 if its all just in the mind or if you are tuning into something greater: God Head, Outer Consciousness, Group Conscious, the energy that is in us all and is in everything...etc.

I would like to think is both, my mind is visually creating/interpreting what information that is being gathered/communicated from inside me and outside. Sorta of like My computer connecting to the Web. My browser is on my local computer and is translating the code/information gathered from all over the place. I asked once what is hyperspace when I blasted off one time and the answers I got very much eluded to my above theory. of course one could argue that was just from my own head.

I wondered if at some point in time our minds were very similar to computers, and the indoles were like the virus scan, malware/adware/spyware scan, defragging your hard drive, etc.

I wondered if then we had to take them often enough so we don't forget what's going on, but then again asked the question if it was all poppycock.

Later I was listening to Mckenna and he said that "someone has to take high enough doses, and often enough so they never forget what the deal is."

That reassured me, I mean I always tell myself that it's the content of the experience itself that's proof enough, and my psychedelic experiences have big implications with dreams I had when I was younger, before I ever even read about drugs, so that seems like some important connection too.

I wish I had more input, but this idea is very specific to an individual too, so many people may not have their attention grabbed by it

The "mind as an antenna" has been idea of me for a long time. One of the many possibly but unverifiable explanations for life I've thought of.

But you never know if your experiences while hallucinating are just figments of your imagination or real. So it's best to stay grounded. Taking your experiences on hallucinogens too serious can be damaging to your life. They're not meant to be seen as absolutes, but as symbolic lessons.

Many religions on this planet were based on such experienced absolutes that could not be scientifically verified. And McKenna was guilty of that too. Maybe you and he are right, we can never know for sure.

I,m beginning to suspect that the final answer to what this all is will be something like : All of the above

In a broad sense including all of the speculations we have as a group of humans experiencing non physical realities.

My own experiences are telling me its s little of everything
Wrapped in yet - incomprehensible weirdness .

Someday we will understand it I,m certain of this .

Do you think we'll ever understand everthing?

I mean, maybe there's just different areas of being you can go to, all with their own "firmware" so to speak, so you act within the laws and structures of that dimension of space and time, perhaps we take some and gain others, and vice versa, almost like a Rubix Cube, and one day for a brief moment everything lines up and shows its colours, and then mixes up again.

I still say that the fact that you are face to face with what you experience, and that you can't imagine the stuff you see or experience on the plants, is a pretty good ground to say that this stuff has some type of credibility.

Guess Im crazier than I thought
