This. Seems susp

Don't mind me.

There is a tendency with cannabis to conflate the entire external world and call it one entity. This does not quite equal solipsism, but it borders it. It is dualism at its heart. Which is also a sort of schizophrenia. There are really only two other types residing in the infinite which interest me: the real, which is the world of science (physics, chemistry, and biology) which is the world composed of its uncountably infinite parts, of which I am one and one only, though there are many parts under my command. The second world is the monist world, or the solipsist world, where there is an I, which is faceted, and the world is an extension of that, generated by my own character, the trail leading back to the source of that generation forever inhibited by some initial obfuscation procedure: a necessary one. But there is a third (or fourth, if we’re counting honestly) type of world: the world of three. Where there is a self, an other, and some myriad of real objects in between. This is commensurate with the purest, deepest psychedelic experience…

Mushrooms and Cannabis are two sides of one coin. They oppose each other. Mushrooms generate an abundance of free will: so much that processes of behaviour, thinking, decision making, listening, make little sense at all. The user cannot find any reason to do anything beyond his basic desire to do that thing. The user should be careful not to carry this belief back with him to normal waking life, or he will be forever torn apart by his insistence on self-reliance and the other will become upset that she is unused. Cannabis, on the other hand, eliminates all free will and transports the user to a world dependent on the will of the other, a world where he has no choices to make, and no will to make them happen. Instead, he is a great listener, who does what he is told, or perishes. If overused, or if the method of submissivity carries on into normal waking life (back into enstasis) then the other becomes upset that she is doing all of the heavy lifting, moving reality with, effectively, a limp corpse of a dance partner. The two together produce an effect of overwhelming ecstasy and knowledge, which should be avoided at all costs, unless God is to be destroyed for a short time, and his vengeance suffered. One after the other: sure. It is a general rule not to use two drugs at once.

And what is this LSD ring doing on my finger again? Well, that was my first love, wasn’t it? Well, no. Mushrooms were the first to show me love. But without LSD, would I have a true interest in this art? No. A recreational interest maybe. But LSD catapulted me into a psychedelic landscape, nearly three years ago now, which I have yet to return from. There really is no going back. Would I want to go back? Sure, but with the knowledge that I have now. I would not want to go back empty handed, and if the journey were to offer itself to me again, I would take it again, every time.
