    Tonight (August 16th) is the night. Prepare to trip

    Yes, I know it is a "religion in the form of a joke or a joke in the form of a religion", I didn't just pick and choose a philosophy that had a nice name without reading anything about it :) The Black Iron Prison was a great text.

    Free Yourself From Heterosexual Monogomy

    It might be in our genes. Who knows? But yeah, I don't like all these classifications that much. Drawing the line between "straight" - "bi" - "gay" is hard and usually pointless. I'm sexual. I have never had a boyfriend, but someday I just might.

    Tonight (August 16th) is the night. Prepare to trip

    I didn't know about this day at all, but I woke up in the morning from a dream that told me this day would be somehow meaningful. I met my 10-year-old self in the mirror. That was interesting, mind-opening. Doesn't really matter whether it was "meaningful" or "just a coincidence", it was...

    What is so wrong in our society?

    Capitalism is not that bad of an idea. Money has just grown too big and important in many places. 100% socialism would be pretty boring, imho. I think there should be a balance between these two (and all the other) ways, something that doesn't have a name yet. Probably. If "they" would have...

    Female psychonauts

    (How is it possible that people constantly typo that word when you can read it on the top of the page all the time?) Female psychonauts who use psychedelics and "study their brains" that way seem rare. Might be due to the fact that women in general seem to be not that interested in stuff like...

    Greetings fellow Psychonauts!!

    Since this thread has been off-topic for...pretty much all the time, and since my confusion has grown unbearable, I just need to ask... I checked all my post on this forum. I have replied to your posts in five topics before this, and the discussion continued in three of them: here, here, here...

    Greetings fellow Psychonauts!!

    Well, I don't see that McAllister's religion harms him/her in any way. If the person decides to believe in something that tells her to leave behind everything she has ever enjoyed and to start cutting herself- well yeah, that's bad (but not really the fault of the religion). Where? OK, it...

    Greetings fellow Psychonauts!!

    Why lie back and close your eyes when you can perform rituals and get much deeper? Why use psychedelics when sensory deprivation is THE RIGHT WAY? We're talking about subjective experiences here. All YOU might have to do is lie on your back, close your eyes and look for the light within. If...

    Miracle Fruit: The Psychedelic Berry That (Legally) Rewires

    Why wouldn't they know? At least here (in Europe) every product has to have a list of ingredients printed somewhere on the package. However, I think this miraculin won't become a popular sweetener, at least not in the near future, as scientists still don't know exactly how it works. I think it...

    Miracle Fruit: The Psychedelic Berry That (Legally) Rewires

    Yeah, and you have all the other senses for good reasons. Imagine what would happen if someone found out that some plants could make you see things differently for a couple of hours, like...blue turns to purple and green turns to red, things bend and "breathe" or you see fractals and strange...

    what is your prefered form of ritual magick?

    So what? It doesn't matter whether rain is absolutely and objectively "Jesus Christ crying for our sins" or "a product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that is released on the Earth's surface" or something else - it still rains. Take all the possible explanations and ways of...

    Newspaper, TV, do you subject yourself to them?

    So it's possible to acknowledge the fact that I am being somehow "conditioned" to think like "they" do, but impossible to get around it? If this were true, none of us would ever have realized that psychedelics are not necessarily "killer drugs that will make you insane". ...Unless we have...

    Newspaper, TV, do you subject yourself to them?

    As Forkbender said: If you know someone is trying to manipulate you, the manipulation won't work. This reminds me of the South Park episode "Bloody Mary" (read the plot summary): When Randy is told that his "alcoholism" is a disease that he just can't help in any way, we end up in a situation...

    Newspaper, TV, do you subject yourself to them?

    The dualism, the dualism. It seems to me that you are trying to say something like: "Either you'll watch TV without any critical thinkg and be a slave or don't watch TV and be FREE." If the faceless, nameless, gargantuan machinery of propaganda really is that strong, it wouldn't take much from...

    Newspaper, TV, do you subject yourself to them?

    This post just fills my head with questions. Do you really think things are that simple? "Alternative thinkers" are sometimes even more fundamental and simplistic in their views than the caricatured ideas of their "enemies". "Don't think, don't read, here's American Gladiators, drink beer, we...

    The videogame thread \o/

    No-one has mentioned EarthBound? :( The greatest old RPG ever. The graphics are cheery and psychedelic, the plot is wacky yet deep, the game makes countless references to psychedelics, psychedelia, meditation, traveling inside one's mind etc. The music is awesome, Simon Postford meets...

    A Brain Cell is the Same as the Universe

    Why do you think it's any more logical to believe the universe is infinite than to believe it is finite? I can remember how mind-boggingly difficult it was to even try to imagine "endless" when I was a kid. For a child, everything has to have an end, an infinite universe just seems wrong. Now...

    A Brain Cell is the Same as the Universe

    Not necessarily. Some scientists think that the universe has its limits. The "official truth" seems to change all the time, though. Either way it would seem logical to me that the universe is fractal-ish. Exactly.

    What is Ego-death ???

    Stand in front of a mirror, staring deeply into your own eyes. Repeat your own name aloud and in your head. Ask "What am I? Who am I? What is 'I'?" and other such things. Think about metaphysics. Repeat until "I" loses meaning. Zang. Probably everything else around you loses meaning, too...

    Satumnaisuus: Kaleidoskopedelia - CD+free mp3

    Why so angry? You can download the whole album and pay nada for it. "Oooooh, this guy has sold his soul, he's doing it for filthy MONEY! I won't listen to this commercial piece of shit. This guy is just trying to become filthy rich by selling this weird alternative progressive psybient to the...

    Satumnaisuus: Kaleidoskopedelia - CD+free mp3

    People can pay for the songs if they wish. They can download it for free if they wish. It's music, and this is the Art & Philosophy forum. You don't see topics like "Some of my poems" being deleted. I don't see a point in deleting this thread because the artists allows people to pay for his art...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    In my first post: Being able to choose to or not to eat vegetables/meat/eggs/shit/barbed wire does not automatically mean that it's "a learned behaviour, not a genetically hardwired predisposition" to do the opposite. I don't see the point in being mysterious. I know biologists may have...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    And here we go again. Yay, ignoring the other speaker is a great way of argumentation! I'm not trying to provoke you or anything. Since you claim to know about these competent biologists, you can clearly give me a link to a research, an interview, a Wikipedia article? I'm interested in finding...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    OK. Can't find some things (actually most of the things, for example what kind of conditioning is OK), but maybe I just like discussing things too much. But I'd still like to have a source for the claim that "any competent biologist will tell you that eating meat is a learned behaviour, not a...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    This is reaaaally badly off-topic. Ummm....what? I think the moderators should note that this thread doesn't necessarily belong into "general psychonautics". Also, this is a discussion on an internet forum. I do not know you, I have nothing against you as a person and I don't even think your...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    I know it takes more time to digest meat. It doesn't necessarily mean we aren't "supposed" to eat meat. I repeat: source? + Things I forgot in my last post: I've made the choice of how I feel about things by thinkin for myself. Many people have. Some people are conditioned to veganism. At...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    Interesting, source? I've been living under the impression that humans are omnivorous. I can see why you think it's stupid to compare humans and other animals, but drawing the line isn't any easier here than it is anywhere else. Animals kill other animals in order to eat them, yep. Monkeys...

    WHY you should not buy meat

    I'm tired of the whole "murderers/hypocrites" argumentation. Things aren't that simple. I have a diet consisting mostly of vegetables for health reasons. I do eat dairy products, eggs, and sometimes a bit of fish. Fish is good, and it's healthy, if you don't eat it all the time. Eat what you...

    Between sleep and wakefulness

    The state of semi-sleep is awesome. I've had some of the my greatest CEVs and egoless adventures in strange places. Weird entities, vikings greeting me from behind trees, black pyramids with skies made of rainbow-colored eyes. Also falling into a one-minute lucid dream and waking up again...

    WHY is cannabis a bad thing???

    I'm not thinking of a 'normal' reality, I'm talking of a cold, "objective" reality, that of course cannot be - perfectly, objectively - observed by human beings. There has to be something we can turn into a culturally conditioned reality. Something we can actually perceive. I'm not denying the...

    WHY is cannabis a bad thing???

    Well, I mostly agree with the idea of subjectivity in "reality", but... (I'm not really into this whole conspiracy theory about the society not wanting me to use psychoactive substances because they "open doors", I think people just generally don't understand them - they think LSD is the same...

    WHY is cannabis a bad thing???

    Hmm. Probably the short-term-memory loss depends on how much CBD, THC and other cannabinoids the weed contains. And on the person. I'm not saying that cannabis doesn't have good effects, I'm not trying to demonize it. But if weed was legalized, do you think we should tell the kids in our...

    hallucinating on nutmeg

    Your father has clearly been open about his psychonautism and using of psychedelic drugs, why won't you just listen to him and wait a couple years? And if your dad is a shaman - a shaman, not a random dude who has read a bit of Terence McKenna - I don't think he wouldn't appreciate the attitude...

    The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement

    "A woman on the upper east side of New York or in Malibu ... has a child. That child will have between eight hundred and a thousand times more negative impact on the environment of the Earth than a child born to a woman in Bangledesh. Where do we preach birth control? Bangledesh." -Terence...

    WHY is cannabis a bad thing???

    I really wouldn't say it's THAT simple. It's true though that cannabis, along with LSD and psilocybine were made illegal in the US mostly because of the hippies: "no drugs, no counterculture" - but saying that weed is only good for people, that it's a "miracle plant" and thinking that it opens...
