Woaaah Dude! Trippy!!

Ive actually seen/experienced this sort of thing by staring at strobing images and even still patterns before. But if you SERIOUSLY wanna take a trip without drugs one very effective way to do it is sleep depravation. Trouble is, this can potentially cause long-term damage to your brain . Another way to do it is sensory depravation, like floating in an *isolation tank* the way those psychology students did in the movie Altered States. Life was probably so harsh and so unpleasant for people living before civilization that any sort of mind-altering plants/herbs/fungi must have been a blissful escape.
What shocks me the most though, is the fact that hallucinogenic drugs werent integrated into/adopted by western culture long ago. I mean, Im actually quite ASTONISHED that christan churches(including the catholic church)havent employed hallucinogens as part of masses/revivals...

don't be so sure. ok moses went up a hill, to do what exactly? pick shrooms or meditate? end result is the same. nowhere does it say don't seek god through psychedelics. just don't get too pissed is all.

I watched that video and it was a real trip just watching it. But sometimes reality gets all distorted like that on its own without any drugs or optical illusions. When I take pot I freak out.

That's what i was told by this new age woman who I lived with during high school. She used me for her new age/political gains but would ignore me when she didn't need me.


Like what? I've had trouble with insomnia, sometimes not sleeping for a day or three. I wonder how it might of changed my brain chemistry.

I do/have. There are certain pieces of music that will let me go there every time - usually in the etherial goth or melodic trance genres, but there are others as well.

i wouldnt wanna "trip sober" cus i'd be VERY VERY worried about my brain.
if i trip, i want to know i just did something illegal first.
