RE: Where is My Mind? A Heroic Dose (PIII)
I think the common experience in every trip is always the fear that the altered state will persist forever.
That's a good point and I agree. I also agree with what you said about meditation - I see it in the same way.
I often wonder what the long term meditation practitioners experience. I have read stories on monks trying psychedelic drugs like acid and stating that meditation is better lol. I have had some interesting meditation experiences but not ones that could be compared to psychedelics haha.
lol @ monks claiming psychedelics cant be compared with meditation, well, maybe it's true tho but after years of meditating on and off, I can say I have better control over my instincts and a few other things but it's hard to say I have experienced anything particularly interesting.. I would love to read from long term practitioners too but I think most of them embellish their meditation stories too much especially when you're reading from a blog online. lol
yeah you might be right. I don't doubt the power of the mind though. Especially for those that dedicate their lives to meditating like monks do. Meditating for hours on end each and everyday must have some affect. Maybe their minds have just gone insane from lack of stimulus hahaha ;)
Lol. I dont doubt the power of the mind too but going insane due to lack of stimulus is a bit funny.
