IcerocketI was open minded
I knew that we were all essentially the same, just culturally different. With the experiences I had had on weed, I could feel something I knew was important. I had recently discoverd Alan Watts, and the gnostic Gospel of Thomas... I felt like Jesus, like Alan... I think I was just discovering Terrance Mckenna..
I was thinking of starting to write down my thoughts that I had when I was stoned, maybe in some sort of notebook.
I was more concerned with girls, I had just turned 17..
Since then, I've experienced phenomenal things, I have met amazing people, discovered incredible social networks, understood things I didn't know were possible. I've seen an exponential evolution right before my eyes and can see its increasing slope in the plans for the near future. It's stunningly beautiful.. and I know it's not going to stop... who knows what will happen in the next 3 MONTHS!
anyway I just felt like writing a blog peeeaaaaccceeee

If there's one thing I can really point to for watching the speed of evolution getting faster, it's looking at my own process and explosion of new ideas and subjects that just keep building on one another. I mean, that's what Terrence said would happen, until it seems every day is a major breakthrough into new territories of experience and changes in reality that you never thought possible. And ultimately it will be all of creation happening in one moment - the present - and we'll come back to know the place like it was our home, our place of peace all along. At once whole and perfect unity.
I recently read the Gospel of Thomas and couldn't help but think, as many others do, that Jesus pretty much was the mushroom, or at least transformed by it.
Saying 37
When will you appear to us? When will we see you? Jesus replied: When you strip naked without shame and trample your clothing under foot as little children do, then you will look at the son of the living one without being afraid.
Pretty much when you give up your conceptual clothing that constrains your perception, you will clearly and with greater awareness see your true Self in the world.
Or saying 51
His disciples asked him: When will the dead rest? When will the new world arrive? He replied: That which you are waiting for has come, but you don't recognize it.
Which is of course the immense freedom and power in the present moment, the access door to higher dimensions.
I thought it was pretty good stuff.
yea man.

theres a few translations but here are a couple good ones from the one i read from
"When the outer has become as the inner, and the lower as the upper, then will this world find peace."
and the most perplexing to me when I first read it, now it seems so obvious
Jesus said, "This earth and the planets surrounding it will pass away, and everything will become new. Consider this: In the beginning, you were organized as one body, but when you became two, the illusion of separateness entered the physical plane. Now you are many, and this illusion abounds. Listen to what I'm saying! You must become a solitary person before me, if you want to dwell on the new planets and the new earth which I will create. Those who are enlightened will understand what I'm saying."
