Have you taken LSD?

Lol this fool dropped 30 hits on accident. Funny story:

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uFzhEDdexc"]30 hits of LSD!!! - YouTube[/ame]
 


Few times back in the day. I remember one day having so much clarity and just brain power to tackle anything, that I remember saying to myself and others around. "This is such a mental advantage, it's not even fair."

Good times. Take it at a beach if you can.


I feel like that all the time anyway but then I realize I'm only accomplishing things in my head and not actually doing things.

Yeah, I just write shit down in that state, then later when I just want to get it done, I'll refer back and build it. works well. But this was like that, but supercharged, like you could think many more moves ahead.

I would say it depends on what trip you expect to get. Never took it alone, alwas with a bunch of griends. Always with some weed to calm it down when was too strong. The bet time was on holidays while on the coast, by the see. Sunset and sunrise is beautiful and colors of the sky, sea and sand were mixed up, preaty awsame. We were drinking beer also, and sometimes a bit of speed to have more fun after whole night of trips. I have seen buildings falling on me, drawning in sand and even once become a tree. In my opinion the best time is evening becuose lights creating great colors. Also taking it with people will give you a serious dose of laugh. Some equipment you may want to use to enhanc fun. Cigarets, light up and close yourself in a dark bathroom in front of mirror. Start doing elipthical moves (using cig) in front of mirror and soon you will see nice constelation of stars and suns... One of my best trips. In a dark room watch TV but with dark settings and a bit higher contrast, you should see some interesting stuff... Get laser light (red one) place it next to your forehead and light up. I done with a bunch of friends in a dark room you might start to think you are in Terminator movie or Star Wars. This is great trip especially if done with a lot of lough. For some darker things use good music FSOL or Tricky. In general your imagination is the only limit you have. If you want to fuck Pam Anderson get yourself a doll an you should be able to get it done (havent done that). So as others hae said, good preparation is the key. Also you will know that acid is kicling of when your face or hands get like elastic (hard to explain but you will know). I have never done tabs but comic stamps only, right in the eye (great results). Have a great time!
 
I did once maybe 20 years ago. Some things I remember about it:

- I missed the amount of time it would take to kick in. Was on the way back from the store when I caught myself sitting at a green light for I don't know how long. Also the steering wheel was no longer a circle shape.

- was drinking some spiked punch with other people who weren't tripping. They were getting piss drunk, and I didn't feel those effects.

- climbed a tree and stayed up there a while, I don't remember why

- thought it would be cool to live in the jungle, so I pulled up plants and bushes from a neighbor's house and brought them all into the living room

- shot a hole through the wall

- if I really tried to, I could make the walls and floors stop breathing

- I remember getting into a debate with someone, only to find out a couple days later, it was a cardboard cutout of some NASCAR driver

- when I decided to go to bed, it seemed much more comfortable under the bed than on it.
 
Pretty much through it now.. kaleidoscoping clouds, halo effects, time dilation, questioning reality, it was all there. The 75ug half tab was plenty strong. Whether I'm a better person after it or not I don't know yet, need to sleep on it. I think if I do it again it will be a much better experience now that I know what I'm in for. Did it around too many people and couldn't relax because I was worried... would have been good if a sober person was around.

See how I feel in the morning about it all!
 
Don't be a pussy, you're not that fragile. Take one tab every 2 to 3 hours from sunrise to sunrise. Until you feel like *this* is the tab that will obliterate my mind once and for all. Then hit the bong even harder... snort some molly to clear it up a bit. Your body will shut down around hour 27 after you've talked with every voice inside your head imaginable. Uh, I mean, make sure you're in a park and have trees to hug and good vibes to ride, brother. Drink water. Don't do drugs.
 
Only time I've encountered LSD was in san fransisco when I was looking for bud the guy only had acid...I asked my gf if she wanted to ride the bus around town tripping but she didn't go for it. He walked me around for 5 mins until we found some homeless guys in the park selling herb. I gave him a bud and he was so happy.

I did everything else though. I bought 100 e pills to resell and ended up eating them all with a couple friends over several days. They were soo good. I picked peyote in Mexico south of Laredo texas, taken mushrooms a dozen times, san pedro, etc. haven't done anything in 10+ years now.
 
It's very head based, visuals aren't strong (light things like planes appearing much closer, colours appearing more vivid, things in general looking much more beautiful, as well as face morphing if you look in a mirror, or use the front facing camera on your phone).



IMO you either haven't had great lsd or haven't taken enough of it. I'm not saying you see stuff out of nowhere not derived from anything, but your description sounds like a mild trip. Not ruling out individual experience either.
 
Its the most awesome thing.

I always suggest that everyone needs to do it at least once before they die.

200ug all day! With the help of darknet markets, you can buy LSD online very easily and it will be QUALITY. Not LSA, NBOMe, or research chemical bullshit.

I would suggest taking it in an environment that you are comfortable in.

If you want to have a really nice mind fuck, I suggest reading this book Be Here Now (book - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) while under the influence of LSD. It will awaken you.

200ug is like minimum amount to have an ego death (collapse of a limited person). Fact: you cannot overdose on LSD. I've seen experienced friends take 15 hits and not trip out. 5-7 should be a good amount for a 150-200lb male who is serious to delve deeply into themselves and discover the ultimate reality (the good news for all of us really!).

100% agreed about reading spiritual texts during, especially if you have an experienced person who can read while on it.

The texts that are written from the Absolute non-dual non-personal perspective can be especially powerful: Avadhuta Gita, I AM THAT, Crest-Jewel of Discrimination: Timeless Teachings on Nonduality - Vivekachudamani (link: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Shankaras-Crest-Jewel-Discrimination-Nonduality-Vivekachudamani/dp/0874810345/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1410727308&sr=1-1&keywords=vivekachudamani"]Vivekachudamani (Crest Jewel of Discrimination)[/ame]).

For example, Vivekachudamani explains how to discriminate/distinguish real from the unreal, which is super relevant and useful when you are in such a state. These books also guide you to realize your eternal, infinite nature beyond the limited conceptual mind.

According to The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead by Timothy Lear and Ram Dass (link: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/The-Psychedelic-Experience-Tibetan-Underground/dp/0806516526"]Psychedelic Experience Guide by Timothy Leary and Ram Dass[/ame]) the highest goal the trip is to experience liberation/awakening/enlightenment and recognize the Clear Light. Clear Light is the state beyond any type of thinking. In this state one can actually see the Clear Light. A complete equilibrium of mind. If thoughts do happen, they are like small waves on the background of infinite stillness. Your identity shifts from the limited person to the Infinite Ultimate reality. Questioning "Who am I?" or "Who am I really?" can be super powerful in this state.
This is the experience which comes about 1hr-2hrs in during the onset and if you remain calm it can last the full duration of the trip. It might also stay once you wake up. But it all depends on YOU.

If Clear Light is recognized, one will experience no or minimum hallucinations. It is possible to maintain this state of clear seeing, state of pure awareness for the duration of the whole trip (12-16hrs).

Smoking a bong can be really nice after the peak once you are settled into this state.

For this to happen it is advised to not move too much, not too engage in too much activity. To remain calm and steady. And also not to allow the mind to return to the regular mundane thoughts and activities. Basically, you just got into the super clear state of consciousness. Try to maintain it by doing nothing, being nothing. Don't talk too much. Rather remain in the listening space.

At all times remain relaxed and aware. Whatever experience comes, remember it is just hear for a time. Like that the ego will reveal itself and dissolve as an illusion. If you stay put and don't panic, you are in for a... Liberation. =)

Basically, if you are a mature individual, you can really awaken with this stuff. The degree of your awakening depends on YOU. Your dedication, preparation and one-pointedness can be greatly helpful. But it is important to take enough. 1-2 is not enough IMO. It can be also nice, but doesn't get that deep.
 
Andrey did you experience an "ego death" yourself from taking psychedelics?

To me this term sounds both interesting and scary at the same time. Interesting because we all want to become something higher, but scary because if you truly experience ego death (and the feeling doesn't go away), you can't really live life the same way ever again, right?

I mean, why would you want to be sitting on your chair doing SEO and trying to make a money online if you experience ego death? Wouldn't it all seem pointless? Our job is all about ego. Hell, our modern world is about ego. It's all about trying to deliver a better service/product than competitors. It's a total ego game. Don't you think?

It is all pointless but that doesn't make not eating any less shitty, bro.

Ego death definitely helps you gain perspective but won't really kill your reptilian will to live, at least not in my experience.
 
Okay, I tried to answer, but you just need to jump into the unknown and see for yourself.

Yes

The real never dies, the unreal never lived. You will only lose the illusion. You don't lose your experience of thoughts, feelings, emotions, desires, fears. You just see your true nature as something much deeper and much more profound.

The ego is not so easy to fully destroy so that it doesn't come back. :D To maintain the state your consciousness must be purified of all the worldly tendencies. 99.99% of people come back to their normal ego state. However, if you have gained understanding about how your mind/consciousness works, that remains with you. Also you might be greatly inspired to gain this state in a normal life through spiritual pratice.

Basically you realize yourself as something that cannot be observed, but that which can observe everything. So whatever is observable (visions, feelings, hallucinations, thoughts, shapes, lights, sounds) cannot touch you, cannot really affect you, cannot kill you, as you are only an awareness. It is really a death of death, as this place in you can watch the death occur to your body.

Also ego death for some ppl might be a very seemless and smooth process. If you are already a loving kind person, your attention is likely to abide more in the heart than in the mind and this is exactly what you need to smoothly find yourself unbound of all limitation.

Now let's say you know you are not particularly calm guy. Maybe you believe yourself to be an alpha male. You like to be in control. When control is slipping thru your fingers like sand you feel uneasy. If this is you, you are advised to bring yourself more into the heart center. From my experience ego death is like descending of male energy in the heart while feminine energy rises up. So in a way two merge in the heart. It feels very much like falling in love. But you fall in love with yourself.

If you can remain in the heart or as the heart rather than the mind like we usually do you can be granted with a smooth onset. Meditative experience is also greatly helpful.
I mean, why would you want to be sitting on your chair doing SEO and trying to make a money online if you experience ego death? Wouldn't it all seem pointless? Our job is all about ego.

While the unlimited nature opens up to you. You still understand that you are in a way limited to this body for a duration of this life. So yeah you gotta survive. Now this survival might take a new shape. Your priorities might shift from dominating and being the best to being content and to be constantly perfect yourself in whatever you do. The ego death is only the beginning not the end. It is when your life really starts. It is when you might realize damn I have been always aiming too low with my money desires. You realize that you can aim 10x or 100x more and nothing stands on your way.

Just look at Steve Jobs. His ego death didn't prevent him from doing what he did. Even many ppl think he has a huge ego. :)

Watch this about Tibetian Book of the Dead also mentions Timothy Leary:

P.S. One huge reason to do this trip is to practice for death. If you follow the eastern way of thinking about this, your state during the death decides your future life or where you go after. So if you do a trip and have a hellish experience, you can clearly see that this or worse is what will happen to you. So everyone should do this, if they care about their long-term well-being.
 
This is a relevant quote.

Sometimes God challenges you to find strength you don’t have.
Only like this will you go beyond your imagined limits.
You must be pushed so far that you are forced to be humble.
Only then, when your pride and arrogance are crushed, will you discover muscles that are not yours. You will find and use the muscles of God.

When you completely abandon yourself, your ego, this miracle becomes possible.
