Okay this is my first post, and it's kind of long, but I hope you'll try to read through the whole thing even if you don't particularly agree with certain parts or are offended by certain phrases or references I have used. It's just a recent clarity of thought I've had today, and had to get out of my mind and put somewhere and hopefully some one can find it useful. It was meant to go to some one I know, but the feeling has changed and become more than that now. I'm not trying to tell anyone to recreate this experience that I had, it's just how the flow of my thoughts came out and it feels competely right to me in it's entirety, unedited and straight from my own mind without input from other people or sources. Anyway enough with the prologue, I hope you can enjoy it and find it possibly insightful in some way:

p.s. the questions were meant for the individual I was writing this to in the moment, they aren't meant to be answered here in the forum. Just take it as it is, answer them honestly to yourself if you wish, and probably should just to get a slightly better context of me and the overall experience I had/wish to transmit.
------------------


think about them, but go with your instinct/gut feeling/what feels right... be in the moment let the responses come naturally.

Questions:
Most important question as it pertains to this experience as a whole the others don't really matter in the overall sense.
1.)How open-minded are you? When presented with a new experience, no matter how -(insert ANY/ALL adjectives here[most important part of the question])- it is, would allow yourself to experience it?


These next questions are less important, but just as serious. They pertain more to the nature of the how the experience was felt.

2.)What are your views on Eastern philosophies in general? Such as buddhism, meditation, enlightenment, etc.

Closely related to the second question but slightly different.
3.)What are your thoughts on martial arts, in general, and martial arts-themed films? This includes/means foreign films and comfortability with/acceptance of a subtitled film.

----------------------------

Other info/questions after response from above three questions.

4.)What would be your take on a (possibly?) new drug experience? 1.) It's legal. 2.)It's as safe as any other drug can be - cannabis, hallucinogens(lsd, mescaline, etc.), alcohol, nicotene, etc. They all have their negative natures if taken to a ridiculous extreme or taken without the proper mindset, life experience, and knowledge.

possibly other questions if I think of them otherwise just information I want to say/communicate now.


For this experience you need to be completely open-minded. Anything that happens, you just need to let happen. Don't assess what's happening, be in the moment and accept it as being true and real. Then release it and let it go. Try not to focus on any on thing to an extreme, let your consciousness percieve everything, feel everything, and then become everything. This is essentially the basis of the experience. Nothing more, Nothing less.

For now these will just be words on paper/in cyberspace, but just read them and understand what the literal meaning of the above paragraph is. You probably won't be able to internalize the depth of meaning that is in those short few sentences yet, but the experience I have created will hopefully allow yourself to feel it personally and spiritually.

I suppose the next step would be to creat a plan of action, assuming your responses to the questions were judged wholly and we've progressed to this step.

(subject to change as I acquire even more knowledge/insight before our experience)
This is where the first paragraph really comes into effect - don't judge anything, everything is fine, okay and natural(this is really a lifestyle type rather than a situational application, but that's what this experience potentially provides access too). We will start by watching the movie "Ip Man". At any time you are completely comfortable(within first 15-30mins of movie), take the first dose of the drug, which is one-half of the overall dose. Continue watching the movie, keeping in mind the beginning paragraph and first sentence of this paragraph. The effects of the drug typically aren't marginally noticeable until around the 1-hour mark, it is at this point we will take the second half of the dose(around the 40-80 minute mark of the movie). Again, only take this if you are completely comfortable, don't do anything you are not okay with. Yes, it tastes bad and may make you gag, but that is in the moment and passes quickly. Accept it, and let it go. Do not let it ruin the experience for you. At this point, you will probably feel a surge of the effects almost immediately after the second dose. This is good. Just relax and feel everything that is happening without focusing on anything. Continue watching the movie without exerting your effort on the movie. It is no longer important. It is just a tool, a guide, let it contain your attention, but just feel what is happening without judging anything that occurs, just accept the feelings you experience and then let them pass. At this point, you will be in a wakeful meditative state. This is, in my experience one of the most pleasant feelsing you can have because you are just existing, being purely and totally in the moment without worries of what might or can happen. Everything is fine. You KNOW it, You Feel it. You can do ANYTHING in this state, and again you KNOW and FEEL this. This is not just a creation of the mind either it is real and true. This you also KNOW and FEEL. In this state(and at any other time for that matter which should be striven for) you can physically do what you want/feel such as eat/drink, stand up, lay down, close your eyes, etc. Just stay relaxed and constantly continue to feel everything and let it go.

With this state your body feel, at times, extremely light, extremely heavy, very slow, very flexible/dextrous, and many more things. These are, again, completely fine, normal and natural. Do not be consumed by any one feeling. If you do, let it go. If you cannot just outright let it go, ask, vocally if need be, for help. It's okay, nothing that is done while in this state(or at any other point in life) is wrong or incorrect. I will help you through a hard time if it's necessary, because I will not fight you, or become upset if you interrupt me during this experience because that will then just become a part of the experience and it changes/evolves every moment because we are completely immersed in the moment.

I will try to act as a guide for the experience, but as I am also completely immersed in the moment, the overall planned experience can change/evolve from what I have planned or had in mind before-hand. This is why I'm not going to completely outline the plan past the taking of the drug and watching Ip Man. The general plan, though, is to talk/converse during the movie if you feel like it. And again after the movie ends if the inclination arises(the ending leaves a very mixed feeling, but is completely understood if you empathize wholly with the main character, Ip Man[this should be strived for in everyday life to, to be able to empathize wholly with all living beings as you will become aware of all things if you are able to acheive this state of perception]. And this is possibly what would be discussed). After that, the plan would be to proced to watch Ip Man 2. By this point, you would probably be feeling very heavy, with your vision beginning to feel distorted or feel like it's vibrating. These are completely normal feelings. Again, just accept them and let the feelings pass. Don't let the feeling overwhelm you. Do what is most comfortable in the moment. Be it continuing to watch the movie, or going to lay down. If/when you do feel like laying down, I will have prepared a deep meditation audio compilation. This will take the wakeful meditative state much much further. It will, hopefully, take you completely into your own mind for deep and fulfilling exploration. In this state you will be able to fell and experience everything you have already felt and experienced in the past, which should only be used as a tool/guide to further explore the unknown or more precisely unexperience events, as in this state you should come the understanding/feeling of complete connectedness to the human race as a whole, and will realize that your small fraction of life experiences, along with the addition of everybody else's experiences - past, present and future - make up the whole of reality. It is the very nature of our being. We are all one, We are a part of the same being. It is through our separateness and uniqueness that we must realize our unity as a single, living, breathing being. Most, I guess, would call this being god. I, however, do not give any name or moniker to this being, it just is. It exists, just as we individuals exist. Through us, it evolves/changes. Through us, it gains it's characteristics and attributes. We define it, it does not define itself. Without us, it would not exist. Without it, we would not exist. Both are necessary and a prerequisite for reality itself to exist.

I am not the most intelligent or knowledgeable person in existence, but I have lived my whole life by trying by myself, doing thing by myself, without the aid or reliance upon others unless required by the situation. Through this, I have also tried not take other people's ideas into myself in terms of how they viewed personal or subjected information they percieved about the world around them. I know, wholly impossible feat to accomplish in first reading over it. But, given the Oneness we as a whole share, is it not the only way that is possible to live? Each individual must experience what is given to them. They then percieve these experiences however their mind will(infinately many outcomes and possibility). It is up to them how they integrate these experiences into the Whole, where others may also gain access to this experience, but, again, it will be filtered through their subjective 'shades' so to speak. It will not be the same experience from one individual to the next, it may be infinately close, but will never be the same exact experience.

This breeds a sense of magnificence and 'awe' at the potentially unlimited nature of our existence, even if we personally do not get to experience everything in our short lives on this planet called Earth, the possibility is present, however. And, if unsuccessful in achieving what the individual felt was necessary during it's divided selfs life, it has the possibility, or rather opportunity, to be reborn, to experience a new chance at percieving and becoming a complete and whole being. It is and amazing and wondrous feeling that, even at this moment have a very slight sense I might lose contact with, every individual should strive to acheive, and, I hope with all my being, everyone can achieve.

As I said previously, I strive to experience everything possible in life no matter how -(insert ANY/ALL adjectives here)- it is. With that in mind, I accept everything, no matter what it is. No matter if it is considered right/wrong ethically or morally. That, however, does not mean I condone, or say everything is correct and right. I'm just saying, these things exist and must exist for the Whole to continue to exist. That does not mean these horribly unspeakable things that can and do happen on this planet Earth(ie. murder, rape, theft, anything that impinges directly on the comfort of one individual to another -- absolutely everything else is a totally and wholly pure act) cannot be changed and eliminated altogether for that matter. All we must do is change/evolve each of us as individuals, which will in turn change/evolve the Whole and our understanding as a collective being. Which is why every action you choose to make is extremely important, as it affects all other living beings through the, seemingly, minute evolution of the Whole, which we are all connected to even if still only through subconsciousness.

I'm feeling the urge to stop expounding upon what I have learned for now. I'm also feeling the urge to'give' this to the 'world' through the internet, so that others, yet unaware of their own Oneness can see, read, and possibly experience something infinately close to what I have experienced. It is time for me to return to a deeper meditative state for now, I may have more knowledge to share later, we'll see I suppose.
haha. Experience. Become. Be.

Nice insight. Such experiences can make one rather verbose.
I've done it myself
