Halloween party T-20 minutes. Molly ingested (MDMA) its coming up in me as I jam on the piano and it hits me. I got to remind my roommate about the upcoming science and religion discussion on thursday. He's real cool, doesn't do much in the way of activism or even speaking but rather as a presence that exists in the universe, he works to be more perfect.
We got to some talking, and then I wanted to know about his original experience that got him seeking truth, the one he had when he was high alone in his dorm room first semester his freshman year of college. He said in that experience he was feeling his negative karma being done on to him, then he let it go.. because he had felt it.
Before I got that out of him we sat down on our couch, he couldn't yet answer the question because he had to achieve the same level of flow that I was on being on molly. He says "it is like chemistry, if people have not reached the same level of flow, they are not yet friends, they have not yet met," When you're on molly you call it rolling. But Amir says it is Love it is Enlightenment. It reminded me of higher vibration, in fact my shoelace was vibrating, he pointed that out. He was trying very hard to reach my slowness of flow, breathing and calming himself, he said it felt very intense, and as he was pointing it out, it was enlightening me as I was realizing its existence. He has given a name to a phenomenon, form to an abstraction, that is definitely real, and now he has shared it with me, I can share it with you. And he says sometimes people can go in and out of Flow, as if it were in and out of being Soul. I told him I felt he had discovered this, and he replied, "I think anyone who is enlightened has discovered it." "We're born with really slow flow, it speeds up naturally, we have to discover it or else it will keep speeding up, why wouldn't you want to be like a kid, why wouldn't you want to be innocent?" He says after he explains how he enjoys being around children, reaching their level of flow. (I recorded the 25 minute conversation, the party seemed pretty insignificant afterwords)
I was on molly a few weeks back with my new girlfriend, sitting alone in a room talking, and we were really rolling. But it was that Flow it was that Love it was that Enlightenment we were achieving together as people. The trick is to take that and be able to understand it day-to-day without the drugs, that is our challenge now.
When I got to the Halloween party, my flow was quickened, I was unsure of where to be, who to talk to. Then my girlfriend came, and I started explaining the Flow to her. As this was happening, my flow started slowing, and I asked "can you feel that?" she said yes. Then we looked each other in the eyes and then mmmmmmm the flow just slowed down again, and I said "Did you feel it there?" and she said "Yes." It was really amazing.
Conclusion: Rolling on molly = the slowing of flow via MDMA. Slowing of flow = achieving "higher vibration." Realizing flow = enlightenment. The flow = love, because love is all that is, but slowing flow is.... I'm just now adding this in here, I'll ask my roommate later but... I bet slowing flow... at least it feels like to me... is like bringing your energy to the same level of the perfection in the universe that surrounds you.
I want to try to get a bunch of people together to slow our flow together, when you feel it, it makes it easier to understand, but you must experience it, or else these words will do nothing.

Holy Cow, Holy Water, Holy Milk
Great blog, great insights, thanks for sharing. I read it twice because i didn't feel like i got it completely the first time. Got it better with the second read. Slower Flow. This idea of Flow corresponds to insights i have been having recently, but your language here is different than the language i was giving it. These kinds of insights are needed by the masses. So many people are thirsting for the innate Bliss. Even if we can't force anyone to suckle from the sacred Breast, I hope we (Evolvers) can at least point toward the presence of this holy milk.
We must start drum circles!
Dude! It's not slow always. It's flow! I have been meditating on the little ... breath, voice, word. Really fundamental. BASIC. Let's get at it!
i commented with a fairly
i commented with a fairly lengthy comment (as is always an uncontrollable urge of mine) and i guess it didn't post :/ if i can think of most of it i'll write it again, but mainly i was saying how it all seems like you were having a conversation with myself, and how i agree on just about everything you've had to say about frequency and vibration as i too have naturally found the same answers to the same questions
thanks for writing.
And River! You can PERPETUALLY meditate! It's a wonderful way of existing here and now in this moment of 'space and time', and every other moment of waking experience of life! : )

Refreshing insights, thank
Refreshing insights, thank you. It reminds me of the the beginning of Journey of Awakening by Ram Dass:
" The Flow
There have been moments in your life when you were pure awareness. No concepts, no thoughts like "I am aware" or "That is a tree" or "Now I am meditating." Just pure awareness. Openness. A spacious quality in your existence. Perhaps it happened as you sat on a river bank and the sound of the river flowed through you. Or as you walked on the beach when, the sound of the ocean washed away your thinking mind until all that remained was the walking, the feeling of your feet on the sand, the sound of the surf, the warmth of the sun on your head and shoulders, the breeze on your check, the sound of the seagull in the distance.
For that moment your image of yourself was lost in the gestalt, in the totality of the moment. You were not clinging to anything. You were not holding on to the experience. It was flowing--through you, around you, by you, in you. At that moment you were the experience. You were the flow. There was no demarcation between you-sun-ocean-sand. You had transcended the separation that thought creates. You were the moment in all its fullness.
Everyone has had such experiences. These moments are ones in which we have "lost ourselves," or been "taken out of ourselves," or "forgotten ourselves." They are moments in flow.
It is in these moments of your life that there is no longer separation. There is peace, harmony, tranquility, the joy of being part of the process. In these moments the universe appears fresh; it is seen through innocent eyes. It all begins anew.
The past has flown away.
The coming month and year do not exist;
Ours only is the present's tiny point.
