Mushrooms reveal the meaning of life
This trip occured almost three years ago. It was the only time where I lost complete touch with reality. It took 5 grams to do it.
I had just grown a batch of mushrooms for the first time and dried them up using damp rid. Splitting the total amount into three portions, I took the largest one which turned out to be a little under 5 grams. I was of course underestimating the shrooms.
Our friend Dave let us use his basement for the session and the three of us ate the shrooms with bottles of water to wash them down. As we waited we watched a little bit of television that started to play a terrible martial arts film. There was a bong set up and some bud to smoke and we did that after about thirty minutes.
That's about when the trip started to come on.
We were sitting down on the furniture or on the floor against the furniture. THe lights were out except for a few long blacklights. I put on some music, alternating from DJ Spooky to this Chill out: bombay CD, which proved to be a perfect match for the occasion with all of its culturally diverse songs and chants.
I started to stare at a blacklight poster of a dragon which was spiraling in the air and blowing out flames. It began to move and came out of the borders of the poster, flying towards me, but I was not scared. I sat back again and shook, looked about, lost focus of the poster and it was back to normal again.
When I closed my eyes I saw in front of me bright colors and patterns of just keleidoscopic intricacy, I knew that it could not be merely from my imagination but something more. And it was not as if I were just looking at a wall of patterns, it was as if I was hanging by a wire in an imax theater, immersed in this new environment. When I opened my eyes I was back in the basement.
I close my eyes and saw the patterns
Open my eyes and the patterns are still there, and I am no longer in the basement.
I felt warm and tingly all over my body. It was a physical feeling as powerful as sex. There was a presence in the room beyond my friends but I wouldn't quite understand it. I wasn't scared of it though, more curious than anything.
Just then I noticed a small tree in the distance. I floated to it at a great speed and realized the tree was in fact a hundred feet in width. I realized it was an old tree, wise and everlasting. I entered into it and realized there was a home built inside of a hallow of the tree. The hallow did not endanger the tree, but was actually an organic naturally grown room.
In the center of this room there was a sphere of glowing light and energy which represented infinite possibilities. Two energy beings came out from behind the sphere on each side and began to psychically speak to me.
"Welcome. This is the afterlife. When you die you enter this place. Everyone comes here when you die. It is a place of pure energy and the aesthetic. It does not matter whether you were good or bad, murderer or murdered, or commit suicide. everyone ends up here, and no one can really harm another person. But don't commit suicide just yet to get here quickly, there is an important reason you're in your body.
"You see, in the world you live in now, you are contained in a body. You learn the rules of form, and through them must learn patience, yearning, etc. All of these things can only be learned in a body when one is contained, but not if you're an ethereal energy being. So in essence the state you are in now is only to develop your personality for your next stage in life.
"So live out your life. Find out what makes you happy. Live it out to the fullest and be the best person that you can be based on what you believe is best. You'll want to take full advantage of the life you have now to enrich your future life. All moments are important."
They stood back from me and showed me a miniature model of earth. As it rotated, peoples' faces from all over the world were flashed in front my face, several every second. they told me, "These people on earth know this truth."
Afterwards they led me out of the tree and I stepped onto a scaffolding. I was suddenly in Spain at night, and there was an orange glow below me as a fiesta was underway. Music was played by muscians and women were spiraling in intricate dresses. One of the energy beings was standing next to me pointing out the people.
I left the fiesta and looked at my origin, birth of myself and the universe represented to me in moments of time. Then I was passing years within seconds and seeing all moment my life sitting down. Day turned to night and back to day. time was not a real thing. Then is when the lights came on and my friends were telling me that the trip session was to end. We smoked, and i went home.
