    Calling experienced psychonauts in the UK

    Duality

    Duality is the mind's tendency to categorize things. In reality(?) there is an undivided whole but we chop it up into pieces because we find it useful. The way we cut it has great effects. Consider life and death. What is the undivided whole from which we define those categories?

    Calling experienced psychonauts in the UK

    Only just got round to reading the rest of this thread since I emailed Fran outside the list. Reminds me of the newage "bitchcraft" of Usenet. I love the techniques employed, the faux pity, the demeaning helpfulness, the pseudo-enlightenment and love-as-a-weapon etc Great lessons to be learned...

    Ketamine as Psychonautic Tool

    a) He was lucky and any side effects were mild b) He just thought that having to piss more often was due to getting old, not taking ketamine c) He was just embarrassed and did not report it. I favor a combination of (a) and (b)

    Beginner's Guide to Safe Tripping

    As a followup to the sacrament thing - purification. Have a crap and have a bath/shower before you take it. Sense of smell and other senses are heightened, and you don't want to be distracted by your own stink. Do not eat before tripping - have an empty stomach, at least at the start. Have some...

    Religious views.

    Religion is the explanation people use to explain the mystical experience to themselves and others. The mystical experience is what it is. The religious explanation is just an explanation, which may be right or wrong (actually, mostly wrong IMHO)

    Morality?

    Sorry about the spelling mistakes on my last post - typing on a small laptop. And "work" should have been "word" (I'm obsessed with work right now...) Anyway, Asatru is as Asatru does. If you Blot to the Gods you are Asatru.

    There are not any UFO style aliens. What is described in witness reports is just too primitive technologically. Do you really think superscience aliens need to give BillyBob the anal probe for scientific reasons?

    Morality?

    There is only one scientific basis for morality and that is Game Theory. Having said that, it involves people. The bottom line of any workable morality is keepiung ones work. Do not makle promises you cannot keep. Do not break promises because otherwise only fools will trust you and you will...

    Hypnotism...

    The really bad thing about meth is that if you do it often enough (and I don't know what "often" means for any individual) it will fuck up your dopamine system. The bottom line being it can chemically destroy your ability to feel happiness. AFAIK, on a permanent basis.

    Hypnotism...

    Most people can be made or persuaded to do almost anything. The trick is to rationalize it, introduce the act slowly and reassure them that you will take full responsibility and it isn't their fault. Hypnosis is just one more excuse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milgram_experiment

    coping with the outside world

    You run down a rathole of vast complexity, unable to understand what this place is, or your part in it or what to do. Relax - you do not have to understand. In occult terms, your Holy Guardian Angel stands in your place. Let it take the strain until you grow enough to move and understand yourself.

    Something is off. -- Now its a convergence.

    Well, "apocalypse" literally means "unveiling". It doesn't mean destruction - that's just a populist misinterpretation of the word. Anyway, one might expect something as powerful as the Singularity to create ripples in time. There is one chapter in my book that I devote to an analysis of...

    Something is off. -- Now its a convergence.

    There will be no difference between a Technological Singularity and a Spiritual Singularity. They are mirror images of the same event - the unveiling (apocalypse) Cats are interesting to talk to when tripping.

    Can acid make you go insane?

    I would also suggest one other thing. Before tripping have a crap and a bath/shower to get clean. Wear clean clothes. For some people the sense of smell is enhanced and you don't want to spend a good part of the trip thinking "I stink"

    New toy. Needed to induce some halucinations.

    DO NOT use it in your car! The binaural is set to drop you into the semi-dreaming theta state. If it works in the car you'll crash! Also, you *must* use headphones or it will not work at all well. Apart from that, it is very boring - it is designed to be, so be as bored as you like while...

    Can acid make you go insane?

    Well, if you are talking about being changed, then yes. IMHO LSD is the most powerful agent of change I have experienced. My first trip (big dose) changed my whole belief system. Other trips cumulatively changed my personality to a considerable degree. For the better I might add. However, one...

    Can acid make you go insane?

    a) You obviously have not take enough LSD. You may think you are experienced, but it can REALLY catch you out. b) You likely won't go insane unless you have a natural tendency towards mental illness. If you are already borderline psychotic or schizophrenic, don't do it.

    Wisdom, or mental trimming?

    You have moved from a group where you are in the top (say) 10%, to one made up of the (say) top 10%s of loads of other groups. In other words, you are now surrounded by smarter people and being pushed much harder. And your learned laziness is being punished.
