Hello. It's funny, Mario was actually part of a dmt trip I had. Mario!

I used to play Mario a lot as a kid, and I especially liked Mario 3..... I like because it's like, after you get good at the game, Mario just goes wherever he wants. You look at the map screen, and mario just goes wherever he wants as easy as pressing right or left. He can go through a whole dessert in a few seconds. Not only that, but he can go through different worlds with ease. He can even blow on a whistle and travel up to the clouds and go through a "warp zone" that takes him to different worlds. Here you have a guy who can obtain infinite lives, and just goes travelling through different worlds. I found it calming to play that game.... for a long time it's always been a dream of mine to just explore the universe, or the planet.... just go endlessly walking and exploring the grasslands, and the desert, and sea side, and big island, and sky land, and all the rest. And I'd go millions of years just exploring and appreciating every land and every world. Of course, this is impossible. I live less than a hundred years and can't go walking forever.... but it was the ultimate dream.

Then when I got older, and hadn't thought of Mario in a long time, I had a dream about Mario. In the dream, it was like Mario 3 where Mario goes between levels on a map. But in the dream, the maps were made out of some kind of ecstatic dazzling darkness with sparkles. The worlds were made of love and familiartiy, and it was so beautiful... I didn't even know why it was so beautiful at the time. I woke up and was like, "wow, that was an AWESOME dream for a video game". I had never taken dmt at this time. In the dream I realized there were more worlds for Mario to explore, and there was more to the game than I ever thought. Alien worlds and worlds of incredibly beauty, and Mario had all of eternity to explore these worlds.

Then recently I had a dmt trip which was very similar to the dream I had. My mind sort of went up to the clouds and I enetered a dark dazzling sacred space of infinite potential. It was a world of darkness, with sparkling, dazzling lights. The lights danced around and changed form, and morphed in to different worlds to explore. It was heaven. This was God's game. This was God exploring different worlds for eternity, and never getting bored of the exploration. And the realization was that I AM that divine game. On some level, that game, that exploration, that divine space, is happening all the time. In that sense, my greatest wish to explore the universe had been fulfilled...... and I couldn't believe how similar it was to Super Mario 3!!!! I couldn't stop thiking about Mario today, and how awesome that game is. Super Mario Bros. 3 is a very spiritual game. From now on, I am going to preach the gosphel of Mario. In the name of the Princess, the Toad, and the holy Luigi.... Ah-Mario.

Really though...... man what a dream. What a wonderful dream!

I miss those Mario games. All the 3D stuff these days is just not the same.

I loved Super Mario 2 more than the others, but it was a little too easy. SWIM remembers playing that game many times on acid...what fun those days were!

That's wonderful fnog9.

I want to play Mario now, lol.

A slight coincidence SWIM played Mario 3 on his first mimosahuasca experience, it was delightful.

Mario rules! I love all the platform Mario games, and the 3d ones too. They're all awesome in almost any state .

In a Angry Video Game Nerd review of SMB 3 and The Wizard, or towards the end portion, he starts going into a occult theory about mario brothers 3. I laughed my ass off when I first saw it!

What a great trip fnog! It kind of sounds like my dreams when I've been playing a game, exploring and creating different worlds, stages, elements.. Mario is literally in space in the new titles, I hope to start playing the new one soon.

hell yes!

HELL YES!

Hell yeah. And don't forget Bowser, with the "BOW!" spitting out the hot fireball. That game was definitely made by people "in the know".

Awesome awesome post. I love it!



I think there is a new one out for the Wii called New Super Mario Bros. that is a kick back to the old side-scrolling style mario games .

nintendo8.com

Go, go and play your old-school 8 bit Mario games, and enjoy. 3 was my favorite, 2 was painful to get through and I was pissed I couldn't squish anything when I jumped on it....tired of picking up crap to throw at other crap...so yeah Mario 3 was my love back then.

Ive had a few dreams consisting of Mario before, actually I was him. This was probably around the time when he was sponsored in milk commercials. I drank milk, turned huge and started going through a city, it was cool.

By the way Super Mario Galaxy 2 just came out a few weeks ago. This game is truly awesome, I suggest all of you play it, you can actually travel through the universe, it got a perfect score and has some old-school levels, crazy gravity antics, it's amazing to play, especially if you are high, wow its bizarre at times, so innovative.

Hahaha! This thread made my day.

i loved that game i would get home from work and go right to my kids room and play it till i finally beat the game

LOL!!!! At first I thought for sure you said, "I'd get home when I was a kid and go right to my room and play it". Then I was like, oh wait. LOLOLOLOL!!!

lol when i was a kid we didn't have nintendos or x boxes or cellphones .....
but we got our milk delivered fresh in the milk chute and rollerskated with skates that needed key to tighten them on.........
