"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him."
-Buddha
True words from one of the greatest teachers we have ever known. The very act of attempting to describe what 'enlightenment' means immediately takes away from the reality of this state of being.
I can, however describe what it is NOT. It is not a perpetual body high, or feeling of being higher up than everyone else. This very thinking undermines the whole concept. It is not some closely guarded secret that requires ceremony, gifts, homage, sacrifice, etc... And finally, it is not attainable. Anyone actively 'searching', or looking to 'gain' enlightenment will never find it.
It is an inherent quality in every human. Enlightenment refers to 'ultimate knowing', or realizing the true nature of one's own life, the life around them, and the very world they live in. Everyone is brought in to this world already enlightened. As one grows older, this 'knowing' goes away once we learn how to function in this world. It can be likened to the analogy of the sun, Earth, and the clouds. Us humans are here on Earth, the sun is enlightenment, and the clouds are negative emotions, thoughts, opinions, prejudices, biases, etc... So the more aware someone is, the more clear & beautiful day they are having here on Earth.
One would think it would be wise to not have 'bad days', but it's another one of life's great illusions...one that we create for ourselves.

A look at Forces - Good & Evil
The universe, by nature is a very hostile, destructive place. Huge meteors leaving minuscule craters on gas giants, dying stars, supernovae, nebulae composed of extremely hot gases...not to mention all the black holes & super massive black holes which gobble up everything that enters their gravitational influence, including light itself.
By contrast, the universe is equally creative. One of the laws of the universe\nature states nothing is ever wasted. Through the destruction of one thing, more things can be created out of this destruction. It would be unwise to say the universe is either good or evil. The universe does not care about our petty judgments & labels we apply to everything. Nature just is, and things go on creating & destroying.
Let us say that one day our planet is hit with deadly gamma rays from a distant pulsar (a rapidly spinning star with intense emissions radiating from its poles). This radiation ends up killing 75% of all life on Earth, radically changes the way ecosystems function, and many species of animal are now extinct. Would one call this an evil deed? Probably not, seeing as it was a totally natural thing that just happened.
Now let us say the day comes (and hopefully not, for obvious reasons!), when the next 'Hitler' type figure succeeds in accomplishing these very things. One would most likely place the 'Evil' stamp. Nobody believes they are the bad guy. I'm not saying Hitler was not evil, it's that the good guys believe they are just, and the bad guys believe they are also the good guys. This paradoxical way of thinking has led to all kinds of conflict throughout human history.
The truth is, there is no such thing as good & evil, right & wrong. They are CONCEPTS, not truth! The concept of good & evil did not exist until us humans started labeling things. We choose to follow what suits us best, and in the eyes of some, our intentions are noble...in the eyes of others, they are not, and we apply our labels accordingly. In reality though, none of that exists. It's just a label we apply to things that make us feel good and bad. It's a terminology that helps us guide our lives.
One can say with this in mind, that without good, there is no evil. How can something be good without its evil counterpart? There can not JUST be good. If this was the case, the proper term for it would be 'It just is'. The concept does not apply to this situation.

A look at Attraction - We are co-creators
It is true that us humans are the dominant species on the planet Earth. Our intelligence and anatomical designs allow us to create and shape the world before us. Unfortunately most of us are not wise enough to realize we can create and shape our minds, and thus how our lives are experienced. Going back to vibrations, it has been scientifically proven that our very thoughts are composed of vibration as well.
One is effectively sending out ripples, or waves of energy with each thought. Since every force has its equal reaction, the universe will send these waves back to the sender. What happens when one receives these waves of energy back all depends on what one's current state of mind was when they were created. This is called the Law of Attraction, or The Law of Vibration. This has been a well guarded secret for past millennia, and has only come to light recently. At the time of this writing, we are currently in the Information Age. Everyone has access to information today, and it's only a matter of time before things are revealed to all.
 |
| Law of Attraction |
** Information Age report pending **
It would be wise for one to be aware of their usual state of mind. This does not have to be a daunting task. However one feels the most, is what will be returned to them. This can go either way. The universe does not judge whether one's intentions were noble or not. Vibrations are sent and received. The universe does not care if one is a good person, but consistently sends out negative vibes. What is sent will be received in kind.
This does not mean to be afraid of having any bad thoughts at all. Think of it as frequency. The more one hones in on their thoughts & feelings, the signal becomes clear. So if one gets a negative vibe, it is best to observe it for what it is, and then let it go. Think of it as changing the channel.
It is all based off of feeling. Feelings & emotions are very powerful forces. One can apply this to material gains as well. Try to actually feel the joy of holding the next big paycheck, sitting in a new car, kissing the one of their dreams, etc... No matter how long it takes, something will be returned to you. Do not get discouraged if things do not change overnight, this is the universe we are talking about here. Things can take a while at times.

A look at disease - Anything to make a $
There is no money to be made if people are not sick. It's a cruel fact about the world we live in today. Who knows if we do actually have the cure for cancer, AIDS, and other terminal conditions? The healthcare companies do not care about us. The amount they make off of drugs & medical visits alone are staggering. Releasing the cures to the world directly undermines one of their biggest sources if income.
Maybe it is true we actually do not have the cures. But other ailments that can be treated with completely natural methods are instead treated with drugs that temporarily mask the problem. Healing people with natural remedies undermines yet another source. Why treat the actual source of the problem, when you can perpetuate it across the entire length of someone's life, and force them in to paying their lives to you?
ADD\ADHD - What a joke. Are you fucking kidding me? Everyone loses their train of thought. So the little shits are hyper and don't pay attention. How about not feeding them so much sugar, and introducing them to things they are actually interested in. I recall in the 9th grade, my uncle got me on some generic form of Ritalin. It somehow made me feel unworthy of living, and stopped taking it after 3 days. Stop medicating our children. Please.
Autism - Many have heard the theory that certain vaccines cause autism. I can see it as a plausible argument. Some of these vaccines we are injecting our children with contain mercury, animal cells, and other questionable elements. What if autism is a step forward or backward in evolution? What if we actually had no hand in it at all?
** This list modified by - \\A4401320\Admin\ - Expect further changes. **
What if we introduced herbalism and natural elements in to our educational curriculum? It sounds like a good idea, but as we progress in technology, we seem to be withdrawing from nature. We have long forgotten our natural secrets to natural healing. Now we just temporarily mask the problem with drugs. Temporary solutions to permanent problems.
**ATTN: - It is advisable to the reader to seek out natural remedies and methods. One may begin with reading an herbal (book of known herbs, plants & their medicinal uses).. **

A Psychedelic Guide - Mushroom trip
 |
| Happy journeys |
This guide is meant to help one along, curious enough to explore beyond the boundaries of normal perception. I am well experienced in this field, particularly with mushrooms. However, one should ALWAYS be sure of their source, wherever & whoever they get them from.
I am merely presenting one path to the perception everyone aware of this world sees. With this being said, I will not be held responsible for any bad experiences one may occur. As with all mind-altering substances, use better judgement.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A wanderer's guide through the doors of perception
(also how the Doors got their name)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
** Psychonaut: A willing participant in the exploration of altered-states and hallucinogenic experiences brought on by psychoactive plants & elements, with the goal of achieving a greater understanding of the world and cosmos we are all a part of. **
Greetings to all the veteran travelers & the uninitiated :)
In this guide one will find the way to a successful, and uplifting mushroom experience. I will start by listing the essential elements one should have prior to their journey. Some people can get by without following most of this. Remember, a SUCCESSFUL journey is the key here...
The Basics:
------------
The three MOST IMPORTANT aspects that I can not stress enough are:
-Make sure one is mentally stable. Bad day at work, fight with the significant other, one just got mugged, feeling sick...just don't do it. Wait another day, perhaps one that harmonizes with the day's energies, and one feel all around good.
-Make sure one has nothing to take care of. Travelers are essentially "taking the day off" today\tonight, and should have no pending responsibilities. Make sure nobody is coming over (except fellow travelers). Unplug\turn off the phone.
-Have people one is truly comfortable to be around. Some people are okay with tripping at large parties, some are not, best to play it safe. It's really good to have like 3 or 4 close friends all traveling at the same time. The experience is enhanced, and all grow closer as well :)
The Basics cont...
-------------------
-Eat something an hour before the journey. This well help ease any bellyaches one may feel shortly after takeoff.
-Have plenty of fluids. I recommend some nice refreshing water. And OJ (which puts one at warp speed for a short time).
-One will most likely not have an appetite during flight, but have some munchies on hand anyway.
-Be sure to have some good herbals. During the comedown, it's nice to toke on some good herb. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Choose your setting: Indoors or outdoors:
----------------------------------------------
It is best to PLAN, in advance, where, when & how the experience will happen.
Outdoors:
------------
My personal preference for the experience is to be outdoors, far in to nature, surrounded by redwoods and clean mountain air. In my opinion, this is the way to do it. Observing nature while the veil of normal, everyday perception is lifted, is a truly magical experience. One should never expect to go about the experience this way, expecting just a day trip, then go home later. Be sure one is prepared to stay overnight, whether choosing to do so, or not.
One should always be sure of the area they have chosen to camp at. If going to a well known commercial camping area, it's best to find a spot relatively far away from other people. Reserve a nice spot in advance if one is so motivated to do so. Make sure to follow 'the basics', use better judgement.
**For the veterans only**
Hiking a few miles in to the wilderness is by far the ultimate experience. However, it can be the most risky. Going back to the 3 basics, it's best to have some close friends on the hike (Chances are if one is even doing this, all good friends anyway). It's also a good idea to have a 'babysitter'. Someone who goes with the party, but does not partake in one's shinanigans lol. Be sure to have fully charged cellphones. During extended, extended camping trips (and even 30-40 mile pilgrimages!!), it's best that one has some experience in wilderness survival and other related skills. Again, use better judgement. Getting lost is scary enough. Getting lost while temporarily insane can get ugly, fast.
Indoors:
--------
An indoor experience can be just as fun as an outdoor one. Be sure to have everything listed in the basics. The advantage to an indoor trip is that one has the familiar comfort of their own pad (or their buddies). One also has many fun human inventions to play with. Blacklights, blacklight posters, music (musicians channel energy really well whilst playing during a trip), movies, etc... There are many fun things to do.
Again, make sure everything is kosher before the journey.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Procedure for the journey:
--------------------------
I will now prescribe to the reader what to expect during the journey. This will be in a sort of timeline format, so one can see how long the onset takes, what they will most likely be feeling\seeing\hearing at said points in timeline, and what NOT to do during the experience.
 |
| Prepare for liftoff |
Let us say we begin the experience on a relatively nice, cool sunny day. It is 11 am, and one's friends have arrived at their house, ready for the journey. Again, it is best to PLAN, in advance, where, when & how the experience will happen.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- 11 am - smoke some herbals, chill for a bit, get everything ready.
- 11:30 am - begin taking the mushrooms. For the uninitiated, it's best to start with a small amount. Eat one or two mushrooms first. They taste like shit, but the experience is worth it.
**One thing to cut down on the nasty taste is to grind them down to a powder, and mix it with some orange juice. Chocolate bars also work wonders with cutting the bad taste.**
- 12 pm - One may begin feeling 'butterflies' in the stomach, and smiling for no reason ('perma-grin'). It may take longer depending on one's tolerance, and what has been eaten previously (if anything at all).
- 1 pm - The effects should be felt by now. If the beginners, who ate only a few like mushrooms like how they are feeling, feel free to eat some more. If one is not liking the experience, just hang out, smoke some herbals, the effects one are experiencing should be very mild, and there is nothing to worry about. The small amount that has been ingested will pass very quickly and one should be okay in a few hours. Drink a lot of water.
- 2 pm - Everyone should be on the same level at this point. One's pupils will be nice and dilated, everyone has 'perma-grin'. Effects include:
- flashing\strobing colors
- moving patterns
- white "fibers" extending from living things (ie: other people)
- breathing walls
- melting effects
- audible hallucinations
- time dilation
- a feeling of greater 'understanding'
- inner peace
- euphoria
One is probably feeling really, really good right now. The body high mushrooms induce can only be described as euphoric. If one is partaking in an outdoor experience, take in the beauty of nature. Try to "feel" the infinite life force permeating one's surroundings.
- 3 to 4 pm - Everything should be getting intense (in a good way! lol). This is the time known as 'peaking'. It occurs roughly 3 to 4 hours after the onset of experience is felt. This is also the ideal time to drink some OJ. I am unclear to the specifics of it, but the vitamin C in OJ further intensifies the experience. Be careful though, drink a few gulps and wait. If things get crazy, one will be glad they didn't drink more than they did. During this phase, one will probably experience many psychic phenomena. The traveler and their friends will feel like they're having conversations with each other in their heads. Problem here is everyone is going in circles, so we don't know what the hell we are talking about! LOL!!!
- 5 to 6 pm - Things settle down a bit. One is most likely just starfishing on the couch watching Planet Earth, laughing with their friends. If outdoors, one is probably laying in the grass or on some rocks watching the sky. Another reason the outdoor experience is my favorite is one can see the gradual light change as we rotate from day to night. If it's one thing anyone must experience in their life, it's witnessing a sunrise or sunset while the veil is lifted.
- 7 pm - At this point, it all really depends on how many mushrooms one ate, and the quality of said mushrooms. If the traveler got some good ones, they'll be feeling good for about another few hours. If they ate a lot, one will probably be up late in to the night (which is fun, but don't eat a whole bunch at once. It is best to eat them over a period of time). The average length for an experience is about 7 to 10 hours.
- 13 pm - This is the final frontier. The boundary that determines a well experienced traveler from a novice. Some beginners can jump right in to this, others can not. I happened to be able to do it myself, during my first few times. As always, use better judgement.
 |
| Drum circle |
I realize this sounds insane to the average human, but the whole point of this is to expand one's mind so they are no longer average.
These are the most profound experiences mushrooms can bring, and anyone actually serious enough in expanding their minds and becoming aware of the hidden worlds around them should strive to reach this level. I make it sound difficult, but it really is not. With repeated experiences, it naturally becomes easier and easier to perceive these states of consciousness.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What NOT to do!!!
---------------------
Okay, nobody likes a bad trip man, but it's a cruel reality one must face at times. I look at it as a cleansing process. Something dark is being brought to light, and it must be observed. Once observed, it can finally go away. The trick to this is to realize WHAT exactly is being brought to light. I offer some insight based off of my experiences:
Most of the time it's a battle with the ego. During one's experience, the veil is lifted and they can perceive the world for what it really is. This directly undermines the perception of the ego, and it will do anything to convince the traveler otherwise. Thus, this is very hard to determine for oneself (while struck within the intense grasp of a bad trip, it's hard to bring any rationalization to light at all).
Do not make the mistake of trying to get rid of the ego. Everyone has it, it's a part of us, and it's not like one can reach in to their head and pull it out. The way I came to terms with this is I just accepted the fact it's a part of me, but it's not me. The very fact that one is able to perceive any altered-states of consciousness means we were MEANT to see these worlds. Which proves these worlds do exist, and the ego is wrong. Just let it go.
And the other most common reason is external influence. Bad images on TV, some random noise...there are a myriad of things that can set one off. Fortunately, unlike the battle with the ego, these bad trips are easily overcome. The trick here is to get distracted or laugh. Start playing some music, change the channel, start up the drum circle, tell some stupid jokes, etc...
If the simple act of observing what is causing a bad trip does not work, and nothing can calm down the distressed traveler, just rest assured everyone WILL eventually return back to normal. Remember, this is a temporary thing, just deal with it, and all will be good shortly.
And now some of the OBVIOUS things not to do:
---------------------------------------------------
- drive around (seriously, wtf?)
- get angry, fight with friends, other people, etc....
- watch disturbing things on TV
- some people trip out at their reflections in a mirror, reflect at one's own risk
- some people trip out with water, play at one's own risk
- eat things that will upset one's stomach
- drink a whole shit ton
- smoke crack\meth\crank etc...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well that about covers it. I wish any and all travelers a safe & happy voyage. As always:
Use better judgement!!!

A look at the Earth - Garden World Paradise
-The Earth
--------------------------------------------------
Home world of the Human race
Population: 6.9 billion (as of 5/11)
Circumference: 40,000 km
Mass: 5.97 x 10^24 kg
Surface area: 510,072,000 km2
Axial tilt: 23.5º
Temp: -50º F to 120º F (varies)
---------------------------------------------------
At the time of this writing, Earth is home to the Human race. It is our home world on which (as far as we know) we originated from. Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, and life appeared some billion years later. We are the 3rd planet from the sun, and the 5th largest planet in our solar system. Earth is home to millions upon millions of species of animals, insects, and plant life. The planet surface consists of water (approx. 71% of the surface), and 6 major landmasses (we call continents).
Most of you alien beings residing or visiting here have probably noticed the profound abundance of life and beauty that embraces this blue marble sailing the cosmos. This is a Garden World, a place of perpetual, cyclic paradise manifesting in innumerable forms. If you are a species incapable of perceiving beauty, you should really leave here. Us humans have done enough damage as it is, we don't need any extra help in that respect.
We are a very....VERY confused, angry species. We have the capacity to live in harmony with the universe, but we are plagued by various psychological ailments. The good news in this is that these ailments are not natural to us, meaning that we create the symptoms due to the state of world affairs, at this current point in space & time. The bad news in this is that the general population of the world (particularly in the continent\country known as North America) are so far gone in their egos and material lifestyles (a few of the ailments), that there is no helping us. We may be too far beyond repair. At least the Earth will remain when and if we finally blow each other up.
Upon arriving on this world, I can logically deduce nobody knows you're here. And that is good, you really don't want to start a world incident. Humans like drama and to start shit. See, people like me would try to commune and learn from your kind. We are the ones you should seek out. We are what you would consider the "REAL" World Leaders. Our military would probably be hostile towards your kind. I can also logically deduce your species is technically more advanced than us (we have a hard time just getting to the moon).
So all of you new arrivals, don't make the mistake of assuming we recognize the fact we are all one species and life force, because we do not. Omniscience is not at the top of our "To-Do List".

A look at the Moon - A vital companion
The Moon
------------------------------------
Distance from Earth: 380,000 km
Circumference: 11,000 km
Mass: 7.36 x 10^22 kg
Day length: 27.3 Earth days
Temp: 270º F during the day
-240º F at night
------------------------------------
We owe our existence to the moon, just as much as we do the sun. The moon controls the ebb & flow of Earth's tides, stabilizes & slows our rotation, provides "moonlight", and has served as a navigational tool & timepiece for ancient civilizations to present day.
Life without the moon would be very different. Besides the obvious stuff, like no moonlight (complete & utter pitch black nights), and no natural navigational tool & timepiece, tides would be very different. We would still have tides, but they would be affected by the sun, and thus the difference between high & low tides would be reduced dramatically.
Add to this the fact there would be no stabilization of our axial tilt & rotation, we would wobble about randomly at the whims of the sun and other neighboring planets. Needless to say we would be in some deep shit then. Life on Earth is very sensitive to the stable, consistent 23.5º axial tilt. This would affect seasons, crops, ecosystems, and eventually the way life as we know it flourishes. Life would be very....very different indeed.
IF any life was capable of thriving, given these conditions, they would then have to deal with gale force winds. Earth's rotation would be much faster, and an average day length would be approx. 6 hours.
It has been observed that the moon is actually spiraling away from us at a rate of 3.8 mm each year. It is theorized that either the moon will eventually leave Earth's gravitational influence and proceed to fly in to space, or the moon's elliptical orbit will significantly increase. This would mean we still have our moon, but its effects on Earth are halved.
Given the timescale for these events to occur, we are more likely closer to seeing our sun go red giant on us first, which most natives of Earth would agree, is more worthy of their attention.

Anything & everything that has ever lived on Earth owes their existence to the sun. If the sun dies, we die (which it will, when it goes red giant in about 5 billion years). The sun provides us with warmth & energy. Its nuclear fusion is so powerful, that in one second, it produces more energy than has ever been used by us humans, since the beginning of our existence. In megawatts, the sun produces 380 billion, billion megawatts of power.
At the time of this writing (5/11), us humans are obsessed with fossil fuels, dead plants. Not all of us humans agree with our methods of energy. It is what we call the "World Leaders" (or 'elites'), that wont allow the advancement of our species. We have the technology to harvest this extreme, abundant source of energy, floating in our sky every day. Unfortunately, the majority of the human race suffer from GAS (Greedy Asshole Syndrome), and are either blind to the more efficient forms of energy we have, or are controlling this scheme directly.

** Monthly Review **
So far, my theory touches the surface of some of the subjects this project will eventually go more in depth with. Additional subjects will be covered as needed.
At the time of this writing, the theory states:
1. People are full of shit
2. Humans believe they own life
3. The laws of the known universe ensure everything is equally exchanged & in balance
4. Religion is an old world science
5. The current priorities of the human race take precedence over what our current priorities should be
6. There are various ways to clear the way for an enlightened mind
7. All matter as we know it is composed of vibrations.
-------------------------------
Additional info:
As stated at the beginning of this project, I do not claim to know any better than anyone else, I'm just trying to make sense of the world around me.

A look at Vibration - Cosmic Tones
** Whilst listening to some jams, Obscured by Clouds (Pink Floyd) comes on and inspires me to write this part of My Theory of Everything. Musicians pay attention **
Let us take a look at vibrations. When I hit the A string on my guitar, I know it vibrates at 440 Hz, or A-440. The act of something vibrating at 440 Hz, in this case a guitar string, produces a pitch which we recognize as the note A, the beginning of the 12 chromatic notes we all know so well.
What if everything around us had a vibration? The bus to work, the fruit blender, one's computer screen, the fountain in the middle of the park. Well, needless to say that would indeed be the equivalent to musical horror :)
What if people had vibration? I think that would either sound like white noise, or something so loud it would be unbearable.
It has been scientifically proven that everything, and everybody does in fact have a particular vibration. We don't perceive the every day world this way because these vibrations are very slow. It's what gives us our 'physical-ness', and thus the illusion of solid objects. Vibrations and molecules slowed down so much that the materials they are comprised of appear to us as solid, fluid, gaseous, etc...
If one has ever seen a guitar string vibrating, imagine oneself vibrating that fast. Yeah, that wouldn't happen man...there would be nothing but paste.
So is it safe to say everything is music? Everything is a particular tone? What pitch am I? What pitch is my Mother? What pitch is the President? I wonder what kind of song we are playing out right now. I hope I'm in lead guitar :D

A look at Psychedelics - Gateways to higher consciousness
There are many theories of the origins of psychoactive drugs & plants, their uses, and what happens. I particularly like two of them.
And now my theory:
Effects - Like weed, there are a lot of effects that depend on the person taking them, how much is eaten, and the quality. It is vital that one trusts their source, no matter how one comes across obtaining them. Mushrooms are in fact poisonous, as many may well know. Good mushrooms come in all shapes and sizes. Some will have thick stalks & thin caps, some will have blue splotches (bruising from handling) & gold flakes (the ones with gold flakes are really really good). Really, there is no sure way to tell how good they are just by looking at them. It's not like weed where one can discern shit weed from good weed. But the ones I just described, will get the job done.
LSD - Acid. This stuff is fun, though I don't think REAL LSD-25 exists anymore, and if it does, it is damned hard to find. I am not sure exactly what today's acid is, but we're still doing it...so something must be right.
Effects: From what I hear, it's like being on an entirely different dimension. Needless to say, I would very much like to meet Mescalito (the spirit in peyote).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOR LAB USE ONLY: Subjects of the Psychedelia Suburbia Project are requested to review - A Psychedelic Guide - Mushroom Trip - This course is mandatory.
1. The theory that Man evolved from apes who, either through starvation, curiosity, or just plain hunger began eating the almighty "Magic Mushrooms" which could be found readily on the jungle floor. These apes began expanding their minds, and in turn became very intelligent. They began crafting crude tools. Something as primitive as the sharp edge of a split rock still serves its purpose. Then over time they began walking upright, started losing hair, and the brain continued to grow. And here we are today.
2. The theory that magic mushrooms & other psychoactive plants are actually aliens, or spirits, and the way to commune with them and learn about the universe is to ingest them with an open mind. If one is ready to be shown the universe, they will be shown. If they are not, then they will just have some fun, but not gain any spiritual insight, or they may have a bad trip (according to this theory, this would be the spirit rejecting the host).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
 |
| Om |
Psychedelics could save the world. I say that while grinning, yes, but I mean it in the utmost seriousness. Anyone who has ever taken a psychoactive drug has looked at themselves. One don't have a choice in the matter. They bring out the best & worst in people.
Bringing out the best in this context means coming to light. A temporary enlightenment, the veil has been lifted and you can perceive things for how they really are. These experiences are the ones everyone should have at least once in their lives. It only needs to happen once because of the profound impact it leaves on its host. NOBODY forgets these trips. Note that these experiences generally do not happen for dark, negative souls. Well, they do eventually, but only after repeated experiences, and the dark negativity is washed away.
Bringing out the worst is not fun, but it forces one to confront your demons. And those demons do in fact come out (one may even see them, I never have lol). Nobody likes a bad trip man, but in this theory, bad trips are necessary. A learning process, a purification process (especially for the dark negative souls). I went through it too, the most hellish trip I ever had was some time in 2007. It was one of the most frightening experiences of my life, but ended up being one of the most enlightening as well.
** A review of said event is in progress, check here at a later time**
When one is forced to look inward, many things about the self are brought to light. It is advisable to not get completely wrapped up in the fun visuals and body high (and it is indeed a lot of fun! lol). What follows is a list of well known psychedelics, their effects, and then a prescribed mushroom experience for the uninitiated.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Marijuana - Yes, weed is a psychedelic. Many old potheads will recall when they FIRST started smoking that it was more of a "trip" than it is for them now.
 |
| The many benefits of this sacred plant |
Effects - The effects of marijuana are dependent on the quality, quantity, method of ingestion, and the person using it. Smoking\vaporizing hits the bloodstream, effects are felt within several minutes. Actual ingestion through baked goods takes longer to set in, but the effects last considerably longer, and is more of a mind high. If one is smoking shit ass dirt stress weed, it will most likely take more to get one stoned (unless they are a beginner). Don't get any seeds in there, the headaches those produce are killer. If one is smoking super bomb stanky skunky weed, not only does it look better, it tastes better than shwag (dirt stress weed). It's not likely to have any seeds at all, and it takes considerably less to get super ripped (for us veterans).
The effects include an over-all enhancement to everything. Increased appetite (the munchies), enhanced creativity & thinking, very mild drowsiness, the desire to just chill.
Those are the most common effects, which I think apply to everyone. There are a myriad other effects that depend entirely on the person.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mushrooms - The fabled Magic Mushrooms. Hard to believe that a fungus can change ones life. Everybody needs to experience this at least once.
 |
| Reality melts away... |
The effects include pupil dilation, many visuals: tracers, patterns, flashing colors, melting\breathing walls etc..., intense internal dialog, euphoria, audible hallucinations, time-dilation, perma-grin (lol one's face will hurt after from smiling so much), itchy nose, no appetite, very short attention span (going in circles), complete utter mind fuck. These are the most common effects. Some people get sick after eating them, that's okay, it happens, no need to freak out.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

| Albert Hoffman |
Effects - Like weed and mushrooms, the effects depend on how much is taken. The onset of acid feels like a mushroom trip. This one can be a real mind fuck too. It can be really intense, where the entire trip takes place in the head, and nowhere else (head trip). It usually comes on paper tabs (blotter), or in liquid form. Effects are similar to mushrooms, only acid is more 'heady'. My personal preference are mushrooms, because they are natural and i get much spiritual insight from its experience. Acid is more of a party thing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peyote - I've never done this stuff, all I know is that peyote is a cactus. The cactus is harvested for its little pinkish flowering buttons, which are then usually chewed or made in to a psychoactive tea. Peyote is extremely bitter and most people get sick before the effects kick in.

Effects: From what I hear, it's like being on an entirely different dimension. Needless to say, I would very much like to meet Mescalito (the spirit in peyote).

A look at priorities - It's all backwards
What, as a collective, social species, is our main priority here on Earth?
Making renewable energy the norm?
Finding the cure for cancer?
Finding the cure for AIDS?
Dedicating all resources towards space exploration and interstellar travel?
Feeding the hungry?
Sheltering the homeless?
Stressing the cultivation of artistic ability & creation in children & adults alike?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
One who is even remotely cognizant of the world around us will agree we have our priorities backwards. This part of the theory explains where our priorities actually lie:
Oil
Covering our own asses for our own stupid shit
Very confusing politics
Paying off our debts
The "War on Terrorism"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I am sure there are more things I can add, but at the time of this writing, these are our main priorities in this world right now.
OIL - We LOVE oil!!! We will do anything to get our hands on this stuff. ANYTHING. Could it be that most wars and conflicts are over natural resources? One should picture themselves as one of the elite, Big Oil Company CEO's. Would they want to bring in renewable energy? Probably not. First rule of business: Protect your investment. Renewable\Sustainable energy directly undermines the whole organization. So what does one do?
Buy the patents for electric cars and other inventions consisting of renewable energy, then get rid of them or incorporate it in such a way where people would still have to buy oil, yet they are led to think they are not directly supporting the oil companies. And if they refuse to sell their patents, have them assassinated. Simple. Corrupt.
Covering our own asses for our own stupid shit - This ties directly in to the oil dilemma. Suppose America runs out of oil first? The way this world is run, we would indeed be completely fucked if that happened. So let us again take a step in the elites shoes...
We will eventually run out of oil. Fortunately, the stuff can be found all over the world. Unfortunately, we can not just go to other countries and decide "Oh, we're drilling here now, nothing you can do about it". So just how exactly do we get it? START SOME SHIT!! But in such a way that it can not be traced back to us. Let's create some incident on American soil that will outrage the population because we say it should outrage them. We then apply a face to the 'cause' of said incident, and occupy related country. Since these countries are generally 3rd world, it will be easy to exploit them. Everybody gets mad at each other, and we just slink back in to the shadows. We just keep this up for a hundred years, all the Earth's resources will be gone, and we will be the only country with oil. We will rule the world.
Very confusing politics - Politics are a headache. Period. It can be fixed by decreasing how complicated the shit gets. All this right wing, left wing crap. What the hell is that shit anyway? I could look it up and research, but I just don't care to. It's all stupid, nobody seems to care how complicated and utterly confusing we make the world. Nobody fixes it because they have higher-ups they can't question, or people beneath them that they in turn will not be questioned by. It's like we know shit's messed up, but we just keep going along for the ride. It's just like the kid who keeps touching the electric cattle fence because it shocked him, just to see if it will keep doing it. /facepalm
Paying off our debts - What a joke. We are born in to a world in to which we immediately owe our entire lives to someone else. I'm sorry, but I was not born for anyone else, I was manifested on this Earth for ME. And don't give me that divine shit about how I came here to do just this. Seriously? We buy in to the game because we don't have a choice. One must PAY to LIVE in this world, and in order to live comfortably, one must be a slave. But the way of the universe is that everything must pass. Revolution has been a large motivating factor of paradigm shifts in humanity.
One of the biggest cons of the world, slavery without the slaves knowing they are slaves in the first place.
The War on Terrorism - Again, it's just a face. The actual causes are pointing their fingers in the other direction and we go to war with this face. The War on Terrorism was fabricated to allow Americans a chance to join in the finger pointing and rally, while not ever questioning WHY we are doing this.
** EDIT - Some time last week or so, America supposedly finally got Osama Bin Laden, the leader of the "Terrorist" factions in Iraq. It could have happened, it could have not. Then again, Osama is the 'face' of terror, so maybe it's finally time for the story to end? **
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What our priorities SHOULD be, will never come to fruition. I'll explain:
Making renewable energy the norm - This directly undermines our love of profit from fossil fuels. Never going to happen
Finding the cure for AIDS & cancer - There's no money to be made if people are not sick. Why would one release a cure? The profits off of medical visits and medication are STAGGERING.
Dedicating all resources towards space exploration and interstellar travel - This is the only one that IS kind of already underway. The problem is funding. We can not afford to dramatically improve our space exploration because money is a problem...does anyone else think this is a fucking joke?
Feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless - Hah, like people care. As long as one is comfortable, who gives a shit about anyone else? Right? Plus, our funding is tied up in blowing up other people, not helping. Sorry.
Stressing the cultivation of artistic ability & creation in children & adults alike - If people are not artistic, they may as well be robots on a damned conveyor line. As technology increases, our children increasingly spend more time in doors, in front of their computers & games. I remember growing up during the 90's, and I was ALWAYS outside. I hated being inside. Sure I had video games, but I rarely played them. I actually interacted with other people.
I think the simple act of being outside does affect one's creative ability. It's easier to get people to pay their lives to a slave-wage-state by taking away their capacity for creative ability. Creative ability stems from critical thought, and that is NOT what the elites of the world want. They want a soft, malleable population to which they can mold to fit any purpose they see fit.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In review: Our priorities are backwards because of greed. As long as people accept the world that they are thrown in to, this will continue. When will the time come when people have finally had it with being treated like a unit within a system?

A look at Religion - The Olde World Science
** "The ocean refuses no river" **
I shall now elaborate on why religion is a such a major problem with us humans today.
First, despite my rants and opinions, let it be known that I don't think ALL religions are bad. One does indeed need an anchor in this insane place we live in (which in turn is insane BECAUSE of religion, and other things...just one of those good old paradoxes of life). I believe its the power religion holds. Power breeds corruption.
** As of 4\20\2011, subjects of the Psychedelia Suburbia project are cleared for time travel to Salem Mass. 1692. TRAVEL ADVISORY - These people are insane. Do NOT mention anything about the world today, as it will conflict with their beliefs, and you will most likely be hanged, crushed, tortured, or burned at the stake. **
Religion breeds insanity as well. If not corruption, then insanity. Accepted insanity because it's never questioned. WHY is it never questioned? I think it's very convenient when in said religion there are rules one must obey, and among these rules one can not question the source or where the "higher power" in this religion came from. Fuck me, that is VERY convenient.
Oh, and the response one must give to anyone outside their belief system that questions their faith, is some long convoluted explanation which is more along the lines of the childish response "because!". Just more proof people are stupid. Religion is indeed a weapon. The biggest, yet most subtle weapon because it's right in front of us every moment of every day yet we do nothing about it. I already explained the pitfall of blind faith in a previous report. Now allow me to elaborate the GOOD things about religion.
We, as spiritual beings having a human experience naturally have a longing to go home. A kind of spiritual homesickness, which can be slightly satisfied with religion. The IDEA of religion was good to start. It was an early attempt to explain the world around us. Old world science. We used to think the world was flat, that it rested upon a giant tortoise, and that the God Rah took the sun across the sky and then returned at night with the moon. All religions pretty much for the most part point towards the same thing. We all just want to be happy and live. I don't claim to be religious, but I am indeed spiritual.
Here's my formula for appeasing the spiritual homesickness while NOT getting wrapped up in the worship and the fanatic praying and chanting and all that. This formula only has 2 steps.
1. Pick & chose what ideas and philosophies from said religion(s) that one agrees with.
2. Apply them to one's life.
Simple as that. One can see that following this formula, they can easily create their own religion, which is how it all started anyway. However I prefer to call it spirituality, not religion.
I personally like a lot of Buddhist, Taoist, Zen and Toltec teachings. Hell, even some Christian principles. Thou shall not kill? I think that's reasonable. But I do not claim to be Buddhist, Taoist or any of these. I just pick & choose what makes sense to me and go about my life.
It does not matter the path one takes, what matters is that they get to where they are trying to go.

A look at the Universe - We are star stuff
**This report assumes the Big Bang theory is correct and unbreakable...please refer to section C223 for more on this subject. **
Universe: The totality of known or supposed objects and phenomena throughout space; the cosmos; macrocosm.
A few laws of the universe:
-Every force & action has its equal reaction
-Any exchange of energy is always equal
-Energy can never be created or destroyed
-Nothing is ever wasted
-Everything must pass
It doesn't take a genius to realize we're all a part of the universe. It DOES however, take some introspective ability to realize HOW we are all a part of this universe. I'll explain it to the reader, right here: Everything is one, simple as that. You can look at it as why it's called UNIverse in the first place. We are all connected, whether one likes it or not (I've had trouble accepting that fact as well).
Assuming the Big Bang theory IS correct, the hydrogen in our bodies was made shortly after the Big Bang, the other elements above helium were made (synthesized) within the core of stars that went supernova and scattered their remnants throughout space. Over VAST amounts of time and space, These remnants collect within clouds of other materials and form galaxies & nebulae. Some of these nebulae have the capability to produce stars of their own, some of these stars end up with orbiting bodies (planets) which also formed out of these materials and nebulae. Some of these orbiting bodies have a chance to become life-sustaining and inhabitable depending on circumstances, distance from said star, and the type of life that may be suitable to said conditions on said orbiting body around said star. This new life springs up on the planet, and if circumstances allow, just like us humans, intelligent life evolves from creatures that in turn evolved from other creatures, that somehow made the big jump from unicellular life.
So how is anyone any better than anyone else? Social status? Popularity? Wealth? Give me a break people, you're not fooling me. You have succeeded in fooling the rest of the world, but there are those of us who can still think for themselves, and thus are harder to control. Separatism is an illusion. It is in my opinion our biggest folly as a species. If we are all the same species, made up of the same materials, and came from the same source (this includes all sentient & non-sentient life), what, suddenly you're better than me? Better than me in what? Wait, I forgot...you're a fucking RETARD!!!! God DAMMIT are we stupid!!
I've almost given up on humanity, but it's the potential in all people to be peaceful and just chill out that keeps it going. I believe we are far beyond repair. Now we're all in such a big cycle of eating each others shit we don't know where the pile of shit begins and where it ends. Almost nobody looks at the universe, and thus themselves for what it really is. We're all one life force. Humans and ants are the only organisms I am aware of that actually declare war on its own species. All that wasted effort which accomplished nothing, except for decreasing the quality of life for everyone involved. Stop fighting yourselves as you're only hurting yourselves.

Universe: The totality of known or supposed objects and phenomena throughout space; the cosmos; macrocosm.
A few laws of the universe:
-Every force & action has its equal reaction
-Any exchange of energy is always equal
-Energy can never be created or destroyed
-Nothing is ever wasted
-Everything must pass

A look at Life - What humans think they own
** "Left to its own devices, nature overcomes all" **
Life is all we have. And we don't own life. Yet people like to think they do. When was the last time one was at the zoo? Did one by any chance happen to detect the heavy negativity that permeates those forsaken places? If not, I suggest the for reader to go to the zoo and try to feel it. It will not be fun. I remember walking around a zoo one time, and just feeling completely saturated with dark, stagnant energy. The looks on these animals faces only spell defeat and submission. And believe it or not, they can detect when people feel what they are feeling. I remember looking in to the eyes of one of the captive wolves there. And it just stared back at me for about a minute. It was as if to say "I know you know what is going on here, please help us". All the while some stupid fat mexican woman is parading her 9 kids around, the oldest ones yelling at the wolves "Ohh look at da wooves! ohh da wooves!!" Such majestic, spiritual animals, being degraded by such ignorant talk and demeanor. No respect whatsoever.
I have an idea, cage EVERYONE alive today who has EVER worked in a zoo at any point in their lives, for the sole purpose of others to walk by and gawk at them. That sounds like a better idea because humans can actually think of WHY they are being caged, as animals are just caged. We think we own life, and that we can overcome nature. Once again, people are full of shit. Nobody will EVER overcome life and nature, because it keeps going on forever. We can live in HARMONY with life and nature, but we will never overcome it. I have a proposition, burn down all the zoos (remove the animals obviously, feel free to keep the idiots there), and go see animals in their natural environment. I ASSURE the reader, there won't be some ignorant fat fucking mexican woman with 9 kids parading around going "ohh look at da wooves!!". The experience will be as it should be. A humbling experience which teaches one respect and awareness for the life that permeates our beautiful home, Mother Gaia.

A human design - (FOSS - Full of Shit Syndrome)
*Credit to Joe Rogan for bringing this up*
People are full of shit. We're ALL full of shit. Anyone that says they know better than another should be punched in the fucking face for such blatant ignorance. All of these over-zealous religious fanatics should be punched in the face as well.
The next time one is woken up at like 6am on the weekend by their doorbell, and met at the door with:
"Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord & savior?"
Punch them in the fucking face and slam the door. The nerve these people have to impose their stupid cults on everyone makes me sick. What if I somehow gathered up the nerve to go to YOUR door and wake YOUR ASS up at 6am and go:
"Have you accepted the fact that people are full of shit, and religion is just accepted insanity?"
I'd probably be punched in the face and the door slammed on. Point here is NOBODY knows what is going on. PLEASE stop imposing on us remaining sane people! There's a REASON your beliefs haven't convinced us!
Ohhh sure, this book was written some 2000 years ago, and it contains the holy word and blah blah blah. Dude, that thing is about as valid as the fucking tabloids and magazines one sees in the grocery store while waiting in line. How does one know it's true? Faith? Yeah, that's a rather convenient excuse. Faith: the perfect excuse to take shit at face value without ever questioning its origins, or even asking why in the first place.
People do it all the time. When one takes the elevator up & down their office building, they have FAITH that the elevator is not going to plummet them, and anyone else on board to their deaths. One sees the news, and believes what they are told because there is FAITH that the news never lies. One reads the paper, and again, FAITH...take everything at face value. For the most part, one is taking in information which has been gathered by somebody else, which in turn was probably gathered by other people, and so on. So who's to tell how muddy and polluted that information has become by the time you drink it in (not to mention the possibility that it was toxic to begin with)? I'll tell the reader this: I sure as hell am not drinking any stagnant, contained, 2000 year old water
People are full of shit, and nobody sees it! Why? In my opinion it's because there are different levels of psyche. There are those who are easily swayed, and there are those who question everything. Sadly, it seems us who question everything are indeed the minority. The dumbing down of the general population has taken its toll, and now we are no better than slightly advanced cattle. As soon as that proverbial cowbell rings (i gotta fever!), we mooooooo our way to whatever is beckoning us. Oh my god are we fucked.
** Author's Edit - This is NOT an attack on religion, please refer to - A look at Religion - The Olde World Science - for the full dirt. The scope of this is just to prove how religion is one of the byproducts of FOSS, and how serious this condition is. **
America's Next Top Model...WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!?!?!!!! Hey, I got a good show idea, how about: America's Next Hungry Child. Let us take a look at this show in the eyes of a producer: "What do you think the ratings will be for that show? How much money could I make off of it? How popular will the show become?" I can almost GUARANTEE one will never see that happen...EVER. Because people don't give a flying fuck about anyone else. It's all about ME ME ME. That's not to say one shouldn't take care and look out for themselves, but it's like I always say: Drama Sells...
Who the fuck wants to watch a show about hungry children? NOBODY!! Because there is no money to be made, no ratings, no popularity. As long as one lives comfortably and without care of anyone else, indeed...who cares? So they get to starve, while us Americans stuff our stupid fat fucking faces with Starbucks and McDonalds, and pay our lives in to a slave-wage-state which in turn, does not give a shit about them. It's like one big hierarchy of not giving a flying shit about the next guy.
Picture a world where people actually DID give a shit. I guarantee that show would be REALLY popular man. In fact, that show would not even exist because *gasp* PEOPLE GAVE A SHIT!! There would be NO hungry children!! Not even children, NOBODY would be hungry!! People wouldn't be concerned with the "next top model", they wouldn't give a shit. This world would also be a big place of not giving a shit, only we wouldn't give a shit about STUPID SHIT!!
We're all full of shit.

A first entry - New Arrivals start here
** New Arrivals must report to Mind Expansion Laboratories for evaluation before reviewing **
Welcome to my blog dedicated to my ever growing Theory of Everything! Join me on the many nonsensical mind trips and revealing journeys I take.
This is a theory that will never be completed. Largely due to the fact that everything is ever-changing, and thus theories change (not to mention EVERYONE has their OWN theories of everything). So this can be described more accurately as a thesis. An experiment, within one perspective, that never ends. Ever.
I feel it is vital to point out that I don't claim, nor ever WILL claim to know better than anyone else. Sure, my opinions may sound better to me and to like-minded people than it does to others, but I don't know what the hell is going on either. I am just trying to make sense of the world's insanity.
This theory requires an open mind to review.
My ultimate goal in this project is to create a handbook, or series of handbooks which contains everything WORTH knowing. A survival guide for the citizens of Earth, both native & visiting.
The best intentions go in to my writings, & I can be quite vulgar at times. Reader Discretion is NOT advised.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
** This theory is presented in a non-linear way, as most of my writing is spontaneously inspired. Links to relevant subjects will be provided on said entries. This is also presented in a non direct way, I am not telling, or trying to convince anyone to do\follow anything this theory covers. Whatever one does with this information is their business.**
** Many topics cover theories and information already known, I obviously did not create these theories. My theory covers whatever I feel is relevant to know in today's world. **
**Any part of this theory may be replicated and used in an intelligent manner, as long as the content is not altered, and credit is given where it is due.**
