Spontaneous Trips - "Trip Master"

[Schwanke668]

In reading around the website here I saw this trip reports section and got to wondering how else I could interact with the community considering that I dont take chemicals to trip anymore. Probably wont see me in any of the various plant and chemical forums considering I actually find most chemicals short of caffeine to mess up my rhythms. I did however consider the idea that I do have what I consider more 'trip like' trips from time to time and different lengths that have the unique characteristic of actually being in the form of a 'trip'!

By trip I mean that each 'experience' has the overall theme of my being a wing leader in a group of space ships flying to the top of a mountain.

Each experience seems to be that of a 'mission' in which we are rescuing people from the depths of a massive pit and bringing them to the top of a mountain. Along the way we stop inside a cave which is kind of a rest/refuel area to recover from the climb out of the pit and prepare for the ascent up the mountain. The cave itself is a fully protected zone where nothing 'evil' can get into it of any sort.

The people that are with me in other ships or in my ship are a different combination every time with some regulars and most of the time the people in the pit that we are gathering are not known by name to us though we see them later on as part of future missions sometimes.

I typically find myself in a leadership role teaching the other flight leaders tricks of the trade as it were however there are definitely specialists in the group that know far more then me and we trade off and borrow each others abilities as needed.

This is the 'basic paradigm' of each trip and then each trip takes on unique characteristics that are somewhat harder to explain.

If any of you have read the bible you will know there are two particular books known as the apocalyptic writing of Revelations and Daniel. The writing in these two books is extremely controversial and fought over by just about anyone who takes serious the ramifications of what they might mean. I dont intend to convey their particular importance here only that the core experience of these trips of mine are extremely similar in nature to the writing style of those books.

In a way it could be categorized as an excessively metaphorical communication medium where by I/we are interacting with the collective consciousness through the thoughts, memories and experiences, of those involved. Poke a node here, watch it ripple a few nodes over then catch the wave that starts to propagate etc. Like I said, heck to explain lol.

I'm not entirely sure how else to explain this except that now that I know it might actually be interesting to see if I can share some specifics I might try and find a way to record some of the future ones that are more prominent and defined and see if I can project them into this digital medium. (The harder ones would be the ones that are actually interlaced throughout my day and for example I will be out somewhere at a store or something and can of peaches and think of a particular person that I know that likes peaches and all of a sudden for a split second I can see myself in the shuttle with 'Peaches' flying next to me, or heading out on her own mission or whatever.)

Anyway, guess that's just an intro. Dont know if I will ever get past that, but figure I might try.

Explain why you don't trip on chemicals anymore?

Well for one thing most of them are illegal. I dont believe in breaking the law unless its absolutely necessary, accidental, or on the rare occasion something I totally disagree with. As such I have not had any particular direction in my understanding of reality to suggest that I should be breaking the law in this manor.

That having been said I have fooled with Salvia being that it is legal here in New Jersey for the moment but found that all it did was make me stoned and feel stupid and unable to drive for some 24 hours after I smoked it. I still have some but I have a multi fold problem and that is one I dont think I can get a high enough dose from what I have on hand via normal smoking to reach anything enlightening, two, I dont have a co-pilot to do it with to do the serious doses that I would want to do to reach beyond my current limitations through chemical means, and three I live with my parents lol and they had a hard enough time dealing with me smoking salvia in the first place I pretty much have to do these kinds of things when they arent around which are basically christmas trips and so forth and where I REALLY wanna go with this stuff doint it alone probably isnt a good idea.

I had considered doing some this past xmas trip however for personal reasons I guess is the best explanation I decided to have alcohol instead. I guess in a bizarre way I was looking towards an enlightening experience in that respect as well as I was seeking a mind altering experience for spiritual reasons and not looking just to get drunk and feel good.

That actually was successfull to a degree as it was part of that experience that lead me to desire to contact you via the website. I had for example googled like psychedelic forum or something a while ago but never followed up on it. I spent about 2 days in my 'neoshamanistic state' concerning the members of the forum and felt rather welcomed but did bump into you and your initial perception of my situation and so I hesitated.

Btw, I think you have a psy-vampire here somewhere. May not be a member but someone is definitely leeching the energy off the board. I can feel them sucking at me constantly through the board and have had to put up all kinds of walls and barriers around various portions of my psyche to block them out. I havent felt welcomed enough to start modifying the landscape around here but I felt a sense of it when the guy from the other thread whom I cant pronounce his name let alone spell it (sorry hehe) mentioned about it being a little slow around here.

Maybe it is someone you know and they just see me as a source or something I dont know, maybe its an initiation right for all I know lol. All I know is I can feel 'someone' draining me rather frequently in connection with whatever you wanna call the 'collective psyches' of the board or in individual form.
