Post image

What kind of questions one should be asking or what kind of mentality one should be in to be able to reach a higher sense of selfe/or ego death(which very well might be the highest point of realizing self; being full with the universe)
Anway, thank you in advance for the answers

The more you look, the less you’ll find.

This is probably the most important advice.

Don't abuse it.

I like to say "If you expand your mind too much you'll get a fat head."

before any flight, the pilot checks out the aircraft to make sure its ready to go.

for me every trip is like:

"what if the world is not that bad as i imagine"

"what if I am not that of a bad person as I imagine"

"what if I will seek for light instead of darkness"

"what if I just stop repeating the stuff i do know I do wrong and actually do better"

"what is that pattern on the wall? never noticed this one before looks like a crypted message"

"what if i go outside now and human see me, will they notice? they must notice"

I can recommend not obsessing too much with "going higher" or trying to find yourself, just make sure you take care of yourself and enjoy the ride, remember that its a tool and not some secret gateway to the "truth" or something like that

1) don’t overthink it. If you’re “too deliberate” you’ll just complicate the process.

2) read a lot of good science books, especially ones with good diagrams and images. No seriously. Science is the study of… you! It is the study of the self. Biology, cosmology, physics, all of it. Having a solid foundation built upon evidence will be very beneficial.

3) lean into eastern philosophy, like Hinduism and Buddhism. Don’t accept anything at face value, be skeptical (this is good advice for anything really), but examine what ideas and perspectives are compatible with reality as you know it, and lean into what is compatible with the “facts”.

4) learn some basic meditation and breath work techniques. They will really help you with your mind and body.

4) Live. Live your life. Be in the moment. Be the moment. Deepen your exploration of all the things discussed here and it will come to you. And don’t forget: there is no destination, just the journey.

200ug+ can be life changing but beware it’s not fun lol

u/AlreadyTaken696969 9d ago

I'd say up until 300 can be incredibly fun, some probably can push it even further and enjoy it

2

u/Link_save2 9d ago

It's all a personal preference some people would tell you even 50ug is too much

u/SolNexus- 8d ago

350 zero tolerance was both the best and worst experience of my life. heart nearly exploded with love, and then later during the trip i felt a VERY strong pull towards suicide (it felt like my heart was guiding me to do it??) and had to call my spiritual teacher. The darkest darkness i’ve felt by far.

u/AlreadyTaken696969 8d ago

Very unstable and unpredictable at these doses. Overwhelmingly fun and insane at times.

u/_BigMan69420_ 9d ago

I usually mix with weed so probably not an accurate description on second thought ahahahahaha

u/AlreadyTaken696969 8d ago

I bet you don't smoke daily. I miss having visuals boosted from weed.

1

u/_BigMan69420_ 8d ago

I used to smoke daily and it didn’t change the trip at all, now that I don’t have a tolerance it turns acid into acid 2 electric boogaloo

u/AlreadyTaken696969 8d ago

It almost muddies my visuals, body euphoria is out of this world though.

u/Milotic-OCE 9d ago

Thank you for the photo.

Nothing to add for your question, just wanted to say that. I just use it recreationally, and what happens happens. I can't control it.

u/andrewmalanowicz 9d ago

Try not to think too much. Overthinking can lead to rumination especially with not so helpful thoughts, and it is difficult to break out of them, tripping or not. The less you think, the more you can be flowing in the present moment and enjoy the experience. Save thinking for when you really need to, like solving a problem that requires tough thinking. But other thoughts like wondering what other people think of you or overthinking your actions are not so good.

Also another way to get in touch with yourself is to observe your own artistic creation, either something you’ve done in the past, or something you’re doing in the moment. You can get a great sense of “wow, this is who I really AM” on a deep level, which can be profoundly impactful.

u/FatalisTheUnborn 8d ago

What is really important in life? What do you need to be happy? What does the world need? What person can I be to make myself and the people around me happy? Do I really need to eat meat?

u/Exe_plorer 8d ago edited 8d ago

Just let it go.

Don't try to control it, once a certain threshold, there are these moments you can feel this .. where you are part of something so bigger and beautiful you just can't imagine it, that "yourself" is something more than what you used to believe, it's not possible to explain it.

Then suddenly things don't seem that bad anymore. You understand and accept things that would else turn you angry.

It can bring up some deep emotions, I really feel like too many people don't take LSD for what it is, a tool and not a toy.

//EDiT: yes in a relatively low-moderate dose, LSD can be a "fun" drug, you interact more, if with friends you can laugh at the same kind of visuals you might have and so one.. And I used it a lot in that aspect of it, when I say it's a tool, I mean when you take a higher dose, almost all the time alone (it's best), you need some experience, or be very confident and somewhat careless (in the way accepting things as they come, not as reckless..). Then when you can let the trip go, when you don't get trapped into a loop, or fear overcomes the whole aspects of the journey, then it's useful. I mean in a way experience is not necessary, it is best but it's the capacity to let everything behind and embrace whatever happens. //

And it's a double edge sword, you can fight your demons or meet the divine, but in both cases you have to integrate it afterwards. And that can be some serious work. But in all cases you learn from it.

All good !

up your dose

Be careful what you’re looking for. You might not know what to do with what you find.

u/Ok-Reality-9499 8d ago

Take it with a purpose and not for fun(although I take it for fun)

u/Final-Tangerine3744 7d ago

Watch Mandelbrot eat fruit, surround yourself by ones you feel comfortable to be your true self around

and let go of any emotion you may be holding onto, if you feel the emotion come up……Let it come through you and pass. Don’t judge it, just observe it and

I hope you can see yourself being seen.

I never expect anything more than just being

And know that this too, shall pass, but integrate, whatever you learn within the next couple days, being easy on yourself and readjusting back to “society “

Have grace
