I can really do it for as long as I want, breathing has no effect on it. I have been able to do this since I was very younge and I used to think it was a vein in my brain that was opeing to let more blood flow to a certain area...

EM international - Rites of Passage
Gilbert Nolander replied to psycho0's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
So, I was just wondering. After doing and learning these techniques, do you find that you can practice them at home, perhaps in your bed, or is the setting pretty important? -
Thanks for the help, shroomy.

That's really strange. My wife and I were just talking about this the other day. Yea, I can hear it. I have never met anyone who could do it at will also, and this is making me rather happy at the moment. It reminds me of a river. It is more of a constant noise, but I could see how you could compare it to moth's wings fluttering real fast. I call it the river running through my head.

einstein
Gilbert Nolander replied to infinite_monkey's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
"I want to know God's thoughts,..... the rest are details.." "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed." "The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once." "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." "True religion is real living; living with all one's soul, with all one's goodness and righteousness." "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind." All quotes from Einstein -
I did a little reading on heimia, and it sounds pretty interesting. I tend to stay away from hallucinogens, I have had some strange experiences with them. The stuff I read said it has minor hallucinogenic properties? Perhaps I should stay away from this? I guess if it is similiar to cannabis, but a bit more intestse, that's no problem, but if its anything like shrooms or anything, there's no way. [ 12.

Yea, Skunk your right. It's just that I have read several books that is listed there, and I sort of thought they were BS, though they were real good. I have e-mailed the lady who posted that list, and she seems pretty smart, and well in touch with some native elders, and she was basically saying that Native Elders do not have time to write books, and besides that, their processes and methods are kept secret unless they feel that someone is generally going to help other people and also have the ability to bring some sort of respect to their views.

anthing um thing sequel anthing un nah!
Gilbert Nolander replied to Thelema's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
interesing t s t . I was just going to ask why love can not also be composed of nothing? I am pretty sure, though it really makes no sense to me, that everything is composed of nothing. Whatever that means... -

Gilbert Nolander replied to Thelema's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
A difference between the two? a)Is there Something rather than Nothing? b)Is there Something AND Nothing? The difference between a) and are the words than and AND. Seriously though, the diffence is that everything is composed of something. And this something is held together by nothing. Nothing being the empty space between atoms, so therefore, a) is not valid because without the nothing holding together the something, there would not be anything. So is true and a) is false, that is the difference. Or, maybe not. -
shroomy - I don't know if I would say own free will, but thanks. I sort of have had some strange things happen to me, and well.. I tried to find out what was going on and I found either shamanism, or psychotic behaviour... I sometimes feel that if I don't try and learn as much as possible about what is going on that I will die. This may sound strange, but I have had several near death experiences, going weeks without sleep or food, and the like... Anyway, I don't really like to even talk about this stuff, I just felt this impulse to put this in, maybe others here have felt similarly or something. :cheers:

mckenna's timeline.
Gilbert Nolander replied to nabraxas's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
I think this is very interesting. Especially the fact that they used a different, Chinese based system, to arrive at the same year is rather interesting. I think though, that we will have to wait and see, and hope that the human species can push through this time of change, as it probably will be, and move on to the next step. But then again, couldn't every moment of our existence be considered a time of change? Are we not now going through a time of great change? Were we not going through a time of great change in the 60's? So therefor, we will always be going through a great change to some people, and to others, it will just be another day in the park. [ 01.

One way to keep out all left/right wing politicians would be to make a law that all people who live on the island must not cheat on their wifes. -
"Alcohol Alternatives"
Gilbert Nolander replied to gomaos's topic in Creativity, Spirituality & Philosophy
Hum... This reminds me of a poem I wrote, Drunk I sit, restless from a long night of drinks and dreams. Wondering... What are the blue streaks of chaos running rapid three times as strong as a shadows dreams? Is that another beer, or perhaps an injured spine. I see you, lurking: underneith the tall tree of despair. Is that a beer in your eye? No, I mean tear. Or perhaps a smile on your frown? Was I dancing yesterday, no wait, that was tommorow, boy am I drunk. Does anything remind me of what you think of? Doubtful......... Does my clock actually say 3:00. Is that in the morning. No, can't be.... Good Night, my sloppy self.
