    Cutting San Pedro

    A tip shot - the top 20-30cms to be precise and a bigger pic of your avatar if you would be so kind. The local sanpedro here doesn't have as nice a flower as that.

    Could you post a pic of the tip pretty please?

    Strong sunlight is best if you got it. What kind of Trichocereus is that a picture of in your avatar MrCactus? Nice flower!

    http://www.egodeath.com/MysticStateAllu ... aisley.htm Dim memories indeed. Hot for Teacher! Oh yeah that's right up with the bible. :roll: "Oh wow, man !" "Wait a second man. Whaddaya think the teacher's gonna look like this year ?" "My butt, man !" T-T-Teacher stop that screaming...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    And what about MH's crazy acid rock lyric stuff, huh? What's up with that? All hail Ozzy as the enlightened one? When it comes to the Beatles catalogue most entheogen partakers would identify more with "Tomorrow Never Knows" rather than MH's wishful spiritual crisis in Help's lyrics. But I'm...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    Certainly not, just look at the rave culture. Dancing is a great way to experience and express religious ecstasy, a couple of my finest moments have been while doing so. It was uncontrollable, I had no choice. Sometimes the music is generated from within too, no sound system needed. I am...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    I'm not talking about in reality but rather in your mental trip. What do you do when you discover you're god or a god? What do you do with ultimate power? Do you choose to destroy or create? Intent seems very key to me on high doses.

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    This sounds like what I was referring to before - letting go. On anything more than a mild trip thoughts and visions appear as if out of nowhere. You have no control over these, you learn to sit back and watch as a spectator. The harder you trip the more these tend to be about what I would call...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    Are you able to explain "control loss" in your own words rather than Michael's because you just seem to parrot him? If people can't come away from reading and supposingly understanding the theory without using his terminology then something is wrong I think. I know I'm not the first to say this.

    Exploring Natural Hallucinations

    Yeah it's nutty, that presence feeling is always there in the sleep paralysis experiences I've had. Last time I could actually feel it sit on the end of my bed! :shock:

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    Ah see, even you can admit that the theory is a little biased towards the negative experience. What about the phenomenology of a classic good trip? :wink: I think I am trying to make too much out of his theory. If I read it from the perspective of a totally straight, rigidly defined person...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    I would like to see some personal examples of mystical experiences he has had that I can relate to, his connections with the perennial philospophy, of the type I gave even, not blanket theoretical descriptions, stuff like this - this sounds like the bad trip I never had. :lol...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    Sad isn't it, that the world seems to revolve around the drunken tumble when it's the lowest, most blind form of love-making there is. I don't know about paradigm's but it certainly shows humanity is lost and out of touch in oh so many ways. Actually I've found some of that deeper sensual...

    Exploring Natural Hallucinations

    Hmm, I think you're out of luck with sleep paralysis. You're either susceptible or you're not and plenty of people who get it or night terrors( they may be a little different) wish they wouldn't. Hypnagogic hallucinations are easier, just force yourself to stay awake thinking about something -...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    That's interesting. I had a mate years ago that when we started messing around with psychedelics ultimately gave it away because he said he always felt like he was dying. He was a fairly strong ego based character though, they're the ones that often have the hardest time letting go.

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    I think mens obsession with orgasm stems from biological imperative, it's nothing to do with cultural conditioning. Can't recall if MH mentions tantra but I've definately found myself in that psychic zone when tantric sex and withholding semen makes the utmost sense. Wouldn't surprise me if...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    The computer reference was really just an easy modern analogy. I don't feel like a computer, only in the sense that personality is repetitive and predictable. I feel a fuller sense of self on sacraments, like the shackles have been lifted, more ME and more in control sometimes - the usual...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    One of the troubles I have with the theory is that simple, concrete examples are never given by MH so it makes it extremely hard to say whether I've had similar experiences or not because I never really know what he's talking about. I've had a few religious experiences like being Doubting...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    I must say I really like that definition conceptually - 'loosened cognitive association binding' makes much more sense when contemplating schizophrenia. I like a lot of MH's essays and discussions found within his site, though as yet still unsure about his theory. He suggests the more you are...

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    So can you talk more about what you experience in "egodeath" itself? What happens? I can't find anything on Hoffman's site except a lot of jargony techno language talking about everything but.

    what's happened to Michael Hoffman from egodeath?

    Where does this "the whole universe is subjective" ultimately leave a person though? I mean, I have touched upon what I believe is a deathwish in my egoless core a few times and basically it goes something like this "the world is just a product of my mind so if I kill myself I will take all the...

    Snakes & jaguars

    See I'm pretty sure something like that would've happened if my vision had continued, it was definately swimming at me. This is where the "autosuggestion" theories put forward by rationalists or psychologists totally break down, for lack of a better word. People can have exactly the same type...

    Snakes & jaguars

    Question for all - So were the snakes interacting with you & making eye contact? Or were they just there in your vision like you were an onlooker, a pure observer?

    Snakes & jaguars

    Along the same lines as the elf thread, if you've seen them, particularly on ayahuasca, details please. :D I've only had caapi as yet, taken with cactus as an experiment. I don't think I'd bother again with this combo but it was all I had and it did enable some visuals. What was remarkable...

    Elfs and little metaphysical creatures

    I saw a gnome once on psilly's Psyolopher so you're not alone and this was pre the "machine elves" era of the internet & Mckenna etc. It was the last thing I expected to see believe me. :wink: I was in a fairly well lit room and a patch of red & green colour appeared on the ceiling. As I...
