IcerocketI would just like to request a moment of your time, maybe something will be gained; maybe youll lose a few precious seconds of your life, but either way i believe that you may benefit from what i have to say... The problems we are facing...it is not due to our systems, and not due to our beliefs, but a corruption of ourselves. Saying religion or the government is evil is like saying guns are evil. a gun is a tool, and only by the intent of the user does it do evil acts...
The government is the exact same, and despite the fact that it is meant to help us continue forward in our growth & prevent injustice, it has been corrupted by those among us, it has went from being a motivation to an antagonist. It teaches us that we must take more then others to survive, and by taking something anything we cant afford (even if its needed to survive) we are Bad.
We know this isnt the case, and if you can see past yourself then youll know that if we live along with this earth, and only take what we need from it, and help return to it, then there shall be plenty for all of us. The same goes for religion, it teach us some very good principles such as Loving one another, and give what thy can, but has become corrupt with power, and has lost it view of bringing peace to the world.
Within the same realm there are drugs, and through certain naturally based drugs comes enlightenment, and the understanding we are all here for the ride, and we will all suffer if we choose to be selfish, if we were to legalize & give everyone DMT and other mind opening drugs; then not only could we help them get off mentally/physically harmful drugs, but change their eating habits and help them see whats required to live a happy peaceful existence with one another.
If we were to use green technology ,and integrate science with nature and spiritualism we would no longer need to waste earths precious gifts and as a plus to our wisdom and love towards each other; we would no longer have to work, we could create, or expand our knowledge, and live in harmony, free of money, free of suffering, the closest thing to a perfect world.
However it wouldn't happen unless we could spread the message, and to do that everyone must understand the greater picture and learn to undo our own negative traits, im not talking of sexual preference, or ideals, im talking about things that harm your fellow brother and sister; lying, manipulating, killing, raping, things that dont benefit all, or really any of us.
In no way am i saying that we would lose our individuality, in fact we would gain immense individuality because we would no longer be forced to have a norm, you could be you without judgement, think of the possibility's, we could form one language, and since we would continue to ever expand it could become so diverse and fluent. im talking a nearly perfect world, but it can only happen if we spread the word and believe.
This is all i have to say, i thank you for your time, and sincerely wish that i have brought hope to atleast one person who reads this, i love you all, and may you find the truth in your souls, the courage in you hearts, and the will in your minds eye. Farewell my Brothers and sisters, im sure one day we will reunite in a beautiful new world.

I agree

but I think it might take a little more work then simply working on ourselves to get to an ideal world. We need both. If we would work on ourselves there would be less waste in the world and that would go a long way toward making this world a better place. We really do need more resources used against our problems (money, people, intelligence, good will) Yes, it does begin with each of us. Good examples leave positive impressions, they 'build up" themselves and others. Each of us does make a difference.
Each of us might start by "doing something" small like this:

Thank you, very much for your comments.
"The problems we are
— Feb 09, 2011
"The problems we are facing...it is not due to our systems, and not due to our beliefs, but a corruption of ourselves." It is due to our system and beleifs, as well as our own personal ignorance. You also have a lot of other questionable statements in this post. Hallucinogens are not a magic bullet that can cure all of our problems. They will not produce enlightenment on their own without much work on the part of the individual. whoa man.... al i can say is.......do some more research.....do some meditation.........develop your ideas some more......good luck!

unfortunately we all have
— Feb 10, 2011
unfortunately we all have free will. humanity seems to be some sort of process which must endure suffering in order to gain enlightenment (if you believe in a higher cosmic order) .
I too like to wonder what it would be like if we were all suddenly dosed with acid or dmt.
but remember... our brains make DMT! coincidence? no.
Well it might go something like this ............
— Feb 10, 2011
A family member took acid in the late 1960's around the age of ten and is currently still in the state mental hospital for chemically induced schizophrenia. No current treatments have been of any use to date. That's one looooooong baaaad trip, man! I think you get the idea.
Do as you like.

im sorry

i would not wish schizophrenia on anyone who is unwilling to have it. I have only taken LSD once but i was hoping to be consumed and experience a reality beyond reality, however my trip consisted of nothing more then a few fancys colors and a feeling of connection with everything. i havent done another psychedelic since then, but have wanted to experience DMT to see what can be found from it
, i wish you luck and peace on your travels
love be with you
I have not lied to you

this did happen to my relative. All of my imagination combined can not imagine the horrors one seemingly small decision has done to him.
I believe insanity is a step to higher sanity
— Feb 11, 2011
My opinion is that people who develop schizophrenia & such after taking entheogens is that they have merely brought up parts of their unconscious and to resolve their condition they would have to engage with their unconscious more to process the material. I believe that we all have varying degrees of psychosis in our spiritual processes, but some people are particularly susceptible to remaining in these states after the effects of the drug have worn off, perhaps because of the way particular traumas are lodged in the psyche. I believe, after reading Stan Grof and his successful research in curing psychotic patients with LSD, that if supported in a safe environment with practitioners who can assist a patient to go into whatever the patient is experiencing, the material can be resolved and the person can come into a greater state of sanity.

Psychosis
There are some cases of LSD inducing a psychosis in people who appeared to be healthy before taking LSD.[66] In most cases, the psychosis-like reaction is of short duration, but in other cases it may be chronic. It is difficult to determine whether LSD itself induces these reactions or if it triggers latent conditions that would have manifested themselves otherwise. The similarities of time course and outcomes between putatively LSD-precipitated and other psychoses suggest that the two types of syndromes are not different and that LSD may have been a nonspecific trigger. (May have been)
Flashbacks and HPPD
See also: Flashback (psychological phenomenon)
"Flashbacks" are a reported psychological phenomenon in which an individual experiences an episode of some of LSD's subjective effects long after the drug has worn off, usually in the days after typical doses. In some rarer cases, flashbacks have lasted longer, but are generally short-lived and mild compared to the actual LSD "trip".
From:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LSD
"Flashbacks" are linked to panic disorders and PTSD. "Trauma" induced disorders.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PTSD
The inference is, bad trips can lead to permanent bad trips. It also appears no one knows for sure. Is it worth the throw of the dice? I'm sure many here will think it is. What any one's opinion is, other then a doctor or researcher will not help my relative but could mislead others to join him. That would be very unfortunate but is beyond my control regardless of how ill advised I might think those suggestions could be.
"Psychedelics are neither
— Feb 10, 2011
"Psychedelics are neither necessary nor sufficient for salvation." -Aldous Huxley
Spreading the word, doesn't actually do anything but spread the word.
There are 3 keys to freedom:
1) You have to have your health and well being or you have nothing.
2) You have to have the economics and resource gathering to facilitate your health and well being.
3) You have to self-determinate and self-govern in order to protect the other two.
You actuÂally have not proven that you are sane or comÂpeÂtent until you exerÂcise self-determination, because who in their right mind would stay in a sysÂtem of abuse and torture?
"Seek not abroad, turn back into thyself, for in the inner man dwells the truth..."
Agree totally

I especially agree that "You actuÂally have not proven that you are sane or comÂpeÂtent until you exerÂcise self-determination, because who in their right mind would stay in a sysÂtem of abuse and torture?"
Thank you
