I love this!! My Dad just passed at 84. His last words of wisdom were, "We are unlimited,"(two months before ), "I've done this before," (one hour before), then lastly, "Ain't God good." (15 minutes before). His face was so peaceful ❤.
Jackson Rommel don't commit suicide. If you need help, you can reach out to friends and family, or try psychedelics and find your issues, bring them out, and work on them.
Not sure whether it will take you to a different location or not, I would certainly say it does. HOWEVER the worry about suicide is not where you end up but what you are leaving behind. Fate is a very strong and very real concept, you will die when you were always meant to die. The only thing that changes fate is an abrupt and forceful decision, hence why suicide is wrong in that sense. You simply are denying your fate..
Or.... your fate is that you had to take your life. Again, I don't know shit but it could be true. If it feels right then it is right in that moment whether we agree with it or not. But yes, I do agree that we should always keep moving no matter what this mostly bullshit filled 3D life entails. Everything is up for debate! that is my 2 cents
We come & we go. Outside of religion, there is no excuse for existing, or scientific explanation, except in the deeds we accomplished while we were alive.
illminded luos Because that's exactly what you are... We are all just so little, but hold the power to change the world. Each and every single one of us.

He's pretty impressive! I have been enjoying Terence for about two years. He and a bunch of smart people were wise to record all of his stuff. Have you found the TM Archive online? It's great! Bill

The parts that make the audience laugh are always the parts that hit the hardest for me. I seldom find myself laughing at this guy's words. They just sink deep down inside me and hit hard. McKenna had a talent for putting life's most difficult-to-face truths into plain english. It's really inspiring stuff.
@@cartsy3032 I don't know why I feel compelled to tell you this, but Michael Pollan recently wrote a brilliant book (I just finished the first chapter) called "How to Change Your Mind". It's primarily about the second psychedelic renaissance, which is the period of history we're currently going through right now (the first renaissance was in the 60's, during Timothy Leary's time), but it's also about Pollan's personal journey with psychedelics as a middle-aged American man. It's a beautifully written book, and I really believe it's a spiritual successor to McKenna's work. Not only is it a book that advocates the usage of psychedelics as a tool for spiritual growth, but it also comes from the voice of an educated, well-spoken, intellectual, which is much needed. I think that society has the tendency to dismiss psychedelic enthusiasm as the ramblings of degenerate druggies, but voices like McKenna and Pollan show the world that you can use these powerful substances responsibly, and that even people who are "well-off" in life can benefit from them.
i like to think death is just an infinite ketamine/DMT trip until you are born again into another body.The reason people are born crying is because those bastards took us away from our eternal bliss and profound understanding, and by the time we have stopped crying we have forgotten everything about our trip and our previous life,i believe that occasionally some people are able to recall some memories or skills from our past lifes.
Listening to this guy is absolutely fantastic! This guy really helps you to understand the bigger picture. Just at the beginning when he explains to you that getting older and dying is natures way of telling you that its time to go. It's so logical but i never thought about it.
"In my highest state, I have had the insight, which I will convey to you without saying it's true, that is this is the most limited form of existence you will ever know. You can't be deader than this. This is the bottom line, and the good news is only up!"
David Ball Maybe. But from a human viewpoint, feeding on shit and garbage, having a lifecycle of a day and being hit by everyone when you fly into their house is not my idea of a good life.
sublime lullaby....Yes we should start hearing from him obscurely in the near future. Maybe in the form of a written paper that nobody reads or speech nobody sees. But blooming for sure.......
I've had a near death experience via an auto accident. I was in a white room. The light envelops & encompasses everything! It's the most peaceful, tranquil place that words can't be used to describe!
I have just had a crazy high definition dream concerning Terence Mckenna. It was something to do with Terence, DMT and death but very highly symbolic and I know I can never write it down. It was one of those crazy dreams so felt so real and very understandible even though this life fades in comparing. I will probably forget the dream in the morning, it is fading already but wanted to preserve something of it so I'm writing this in bed. The mystery of dreams! R.I.P Terence.
I'm not sure there's any human language that could describe what departure from this life is like. I have a strong belief that when we pass we leave behind our consciousness, exchanging it for a much more intelligent state of mind. as time slips into the future, we'll slip into this creative state of mind when we die. our imaginations are only limited to what the universe has to offer, and I like to think that when we die our minds expand beyond these "limits"
Good thoughts here. I believe that information doesn't dissappear, but it changes its format constantly. Once you are dead your neural network is disorganized to basic particles. You kind of return to so called sea of information to be reorganized to something again. You exist only for a moment in a certain setup of complex information. Before that and after that it's all the same. Life as you in a unique complex combination of particles and information was 0, became 1 and went back to 0 again. State of been dead is in both ends of being living. Before you were born and after you are dead, you always return to that state. In a way it could be called reincarnation as well. We have already and will pass through these random cycles that are based to certain rules. Some of them more abstract such as quantum mechanics.. Every once and a while we exists as a perfect combination to enable us experience self awareness. It is said that we all are children's of stars, which I find a very true.
Maybe the problem with scientists not accepting the idea of an after life is because the Soul is an invisible force like an electromagnetic field that can not be seen.
Read Terence when i was young, now 15 years later i thought it'd be fun to see what he "really" was talking about. "Living forever is missing the point" "Living forever is stealing the future of our children". And that's just in 90 seconds. Holy macaroni.
i just recently got into psychedelics and i've been watching alot of video's from this kind to tedx talks, personal stories etc and i love how for the most part nobody is judging anyone at all. we're all just trying to make sense of it and put the pieces together, trying to understand. for a group of people that are doing a bunch of "illegal drugs" most people would look at us and probably think we're maybe just a bunch of lowlives but until you've been to that kind of place you'll never understand. people are so much more caring, open and real after experiences like this. and you can tell it really connects them.
We call that family young man and we care very much. The fact that you are making those connections is life changing. Follow that, commit to only doing things you would be proud of from that pivotal moment (it's tougher than it sounds). You, your loved ones and ultimately the planet will be better off. We thank you in advance.
@@sadhu7191 Because many people love to fight more than they would ever love psychedelics. In Nam people took lots of acid and then went out and blew people away. Warriors are often born and not made IMO.
After hearing about this I just had to tell you this. There's this book, maybe you know about it, it's called The Light of Egypt by Thomas H. Burgoyne. Volumes I and II. I just wish I could've shown that book to Terrence to know what he has to say about it.
This life is hell. It's as clear as the noon day light what we are. We are in a prison as some sort of light beings trapped in a body. Most never realize it, and tread along doing crossword puzzles, gardening, and collecting bottle caps etc... Nothing means anything. Like a cyborg that wants a real heart, it ain't gonna happen. All the mantras, yoga, and Gita's are just filler. A bamboozlement of the self seeking a way out.
it's quite obvious what happens to us when we die - our own personal concept of time simply stops until the this whole universe is reborn (big bounce theory). When this personal experience of time stops for us and we die, all our experience in and of this universe ends. When this universe is reborn and our atoms are reconstituted into another sentient consciousness (which could be billions of years hence), our concept of time restarts. We do not experience any time when we are dead so for us we are reborn in an instant...
It seems just as likely, or more likely, that we experience change and some degree of process, only less than in physical reality. Otherwise what's the point of being reborn?
Have you ever been unconscious? I guess it will feel exactly the same as that ie. nothing happens until you awake and all the time that just passed, vanished in an instant
Richard Jackson That seems exceeding unlikely to me... So you're saying that the death state is a zero-entropy system of some kind that somehow becomes alive as human beings? Isn't it much more likely that it would be more a spirit world, or soul reality, a higher dimensional realm?
I've often wondered what happened to that part of Terence that made Terence, well Terence. Call it the consciousness, call it the soul, what have you. Say there is something to this afterlife thing; say there is a soul, and that we go...elsewhere...when we die.. I wonder what thoughts went through his dying mind on April 3, 2000 as he shuffled off this mortal coil and into The Great Beyond. I so wish there was a way to connect with him on the Other Side of existence, so that we could be filled in what Heaven (if you prefer to use that word, it sounds too Christian to me but whatever) is like. I wonder if it's subjective or if there is just one Paradise/Heaven/what have you for everyone - and not just humans, EVERY sentient being all across the Cosmos. That is, provided of course, there is anything at all after you die. I myself would absolutely love to believe, would be in ecstasy that something happens to you when you die, that you get to encounter the Infinite, the Great I Am, and learn the answers to all of life's questions, but for now I'm not 100% certain. The only way, the ONLY way, is to die, and I'm not up for that just yet :)
You can communicate with him on some level. Experienced meditation or DMT can do this. And you want to experience the afterlife? Lol take DMT or Ayahuasca, when your ready for the journey.
I think you will go to that place. My sister died and I saw her 2 months later. She was real. She looked 25 years younger, lighter, more delicate. I felt she was still in a process of healing all that had had happened to her on earth, as she was ill with leukemia for 4 years. I think different people experience different things. I don't think there's one " place". I never expected to see a person who had died. But I know she was real.
what do the eyes mean in hallucinations? I saw them just like this in my shrooms trip. though they were transparent. like oil or gasoline on water. but it looked just like the image in the video.
David Wilcock, with his series, Wisdom Teachings, makes a superb complement to McKenna. Terrence gives us the What; Wilcock provides the matrix of Why and How for the cognitively inclined.
death has been on my mind recently crazy if u really think about it. once we lose our physical human form what the fuck happens? i imagine the rules completely change but to what? oh well i'll have my answer soon enough
Guidokraut Mcragman I was having the same thoughts too. Started thinking about that after a very strong bong rip before a Deep Purple concert this year..everything felt meaningless to me if i was going to die..my first thought about this was when my grandfather died 9 years ago..i truly questioned myself..i asked my mom about that but she couldnt give a good answer yo 14 year old..my dad tti3d to explin it with a very interrsting analogy to a rollercoaster with limitedtimea of use but still i didnt feel that was the right answer. Ive been searching for the meaning, for the purpose for the last 2-3 months. I will for sure try DMT one day.
This thumbnail image is exactly what I saw when I looked at myself in the mirror on a high dose of Lsd. I must emphasise the word 'Exactly'. I'm not making it up. I could see all of my veins and muscles, I was surrounded by eyes and a blue stream of energy pierced through my head and spiraled upwards.
I am god itself looking at and experiencing existence from the perspective called "I" and so are you looking and being from the perspective of the "you" ....
No can't you tell. lol Most people who are in good health take a caviler attitude towards death. I do believe that this is the bottom rung of existence.
Terence, when you say you would miss the point of life when you live forever , of course you would , but you do not realize it until you do... so that takes you to a vessel that you cant control, so you continue experiencing humanity evolution , but with different roles and points of view
You would simply continue to grow and gain more experience. There's nothing wrong with living forever. Like the Buddhists do, they reach Nirvana, like Jesus, and when that happens, you can control the physical body, and come and go from it whenever you please. That fact of life is where we are at right now in society and it is slowly getting out there. Being able to tap into source means there will no longer be a separation illusion, and all the power we have within us will be available to stop eating and live forever.
Who agrees we as humans have been FANATASIZED about heaven... While we forget to live for this reality.. Many are living for somewhere else ignoring the moment here. Seems absurd for me..!
3:24, but what if one's natural lifespan was 50,000 years? How could one make any of these arguments? We are eternal beings anyway, so whatever form we happen to be in is an experience. I think the point is that you could be able to determine how long you would like to have that experience.
It’s so strange to me that he thought he had an issue w Buddhism “because he believed in the moment”.. #irony I love that this man existed and I am such a fan and feel nothing but love and respect for him. Just wanted to be clear in case it sounded like I was talking down to him. I’m just so confused the way he was such an enlightened person but his person was so resistant to the idea of enlightenment. I just literally mean that it is ironic. RIP sir
@@johnmiller7453 Lol look up astral projection and have an out of body experience or wake up on your big day and learn the hard way like most ignorant do.
Wenn man jetzt mal alles zusammennimmt: also Albert H., A. E., A. H., Disney, T. L., R.M., Terence, Maria Sabina und weitere, kommt man zu folgendem Ergebnis: "Die Welt existiert, und das Leben ist eindeutig!"
God has given the basic building blocks of all matter a chance to enjoy all that is. what he says is true (to me atleast).we are here to enjoy life and to sit back and observe all that is. so yes we are something that is introduced into matter.
Your problem lies in the question. Who's I? The mental illusion that is the ego dissipates after death leaving you to join the universal consciousness of life. Pragmatically speaking, what does that look like? How would I know? It's my ego that's allowing me to type these words.
we all have around 7,000 hits of dmt in our brain. I think that all hits you at once and you know that your body may not have anymore use, but your soul will spread into everything and will live forever
Terrence McKenna convinced me there was something more to consciousness and he convinced me it was worth giving dmt a try witch was absolutely worth it lol
Interesting to me how you can damage the brain in such parceled ways, so as to know the names of tools but not your friends. Yet people think our soul or consciousness or whatever can rise off the body upon death, speaking English and recognizing grandma.
Well, that’s the big question. What can possibly be connecting us to anything other then yourself and your own consciousness. Dreams, and living through a endless dream, would probably be the furthest anyone with no spiritual experiences would go in believing and trying to figure out what could be possible beyond our own death. We are made to believe that our own thoughts are the only thing that is connecting us with our reality, and that’s the only reality there Is. But these vivid dreams, where your dreaming of something you don’t quite understand, don’t happen coincidentally, these dreams happen when the brain produces DMT in the pineal gland. And when we come to life, and the moment you die, your brain produces massive amounts of DMT, but what for? We don’t need DMT, when we don’t have a body to experience the difference or any effects from it what so ever, do we? So why does the brain still do it? ... And why does this illegal chemical welcome us to earth, by giving us tons of It through our whole body? Fortunately for us, we was given the opportunity to explore DMT in our own minds, while still being conscious, by smoking it or drinking it. That’s of course, If we feel comfortable enough and are curious enough, to seek the untold wisdom in nature.
Such a limited perspective. I thought this guy was 3rd eye open, like a shaman, but he literally just compared the cutting of a cup to the cutting of an animal, saying that we didn't lose anything in cutting the cup, but we did lose the animal. Has he not ever tried using a broken cup? I just can't listen any further while he explains "other clues", what a total scrambling job. No sir, you don't have "the matter down pretty good".
mef1975 I think you're looking at the cutting of the cup in terms of it's post-cut practicality towards those who use it. But he is looking at it intrinsically. When a living being is cut in half, the effects of that cut spread across each half until everything on the inside is affected by that single action. Whereas once the cup is cut, the internal pieces aren't affected, only what has been cut.
subjective symbolic significance? he often has a crack @ buddhism but then, conceptualizations do tend to proliferate. more so under the influence as it may be. is that so? question everything!!!
YOu're close imo. This is the prison planet. We're trapped here by reincarnation. I'd be careful about going into the light or making any agreements after death.
Sum of all it parts seems to be what life is... I'f I understand him right...and death is the answer that you can't for what ever un known reason...know...then collapses back into the parts of it ...and perhaps do something else that you just can not predict...like a child playing with toy bricks...building these illusions of existence..maybe we're just concentrated points of a higher beings imagination..I do not have that much imagination anymore but I do remember it...vagualy...what if some lower demential being lived and died in my old thoughts?..or what if they just collapsed into future toy bricks that we all might one day be...or maybe it was always only just me...or maybe im just fucking too high...damnit im going to bed...

Have you ever been unconscious? I guess it will feel exactly the same as that ie. nothing happens until you awake and all the time that just passed, vanished in an instant
Richard Jackson That seems exceeding unlikely to me... So you're saying that the death state is a zero-entropy system of some kind that somehow becomes alive as human beings? Isn't it much more likely that it would be more a spirit world, or soul reality, a higher dimensional realm?
I dont know if I agree but I like that sentiment.
I never said human beings, I said sentient consciousness, there's a big difference :/
I've often wondered what happened to that part of Terence that made Terence, well Terence. Call it the consciousness, call it the soul, what have you. Say there is something to this afterlife thing; say there is a soul, and that we go...elsewhere...when we die.. I wonder what thoughts went through his dying mind on April 3, 2000 as he shuffled off this mortal coil and into The Great Beyond. I so wish there was a way to connect with him on the Other Side of existence, so that we could be filled in what Heaven (if you prefer to use that word, it sounds too Christian to me but whatever) is like. I wonder if it's subjective or if there is just one Paradise/Heaven/what have you for everyone - and not just humans, EVERY sentient being all across the Cosmos. That is, provided of course, there is anything at all after you die. I myself would absolutely love to believe, would be in ecstasy that something happens to you when you die, that you get to encounter the Infinite, the Great I Am, and learn the answers to all of life's questions, but for now I'm not 100% certain. The only way, the ONLY way, is to die, and I'm not up for that just yet :)
You can communicate with him on some level. Experienced meditation or DMT can do this. And you want to experience the afterlife? Lol take DMT or Ayahuasca, when your ready for the journey.
for real, an intravenous dmt shot is the pull of death
I think you will go to that place. My sister died and I saw her 2 months later. She was real. She looked 25 years younger, lighter, more delicate. I felt she was still in a process of healing all that had had happened to her on earth, as she was ill with leukemia for 4 years. I think different people experience different things. I don't think there's one " place". I never expected to see a person who had died. But I know she was real.
RainaEmeral So you had an NDE, too, correct...? If you did then please tell me about it, I'm a big fan of NDEs
Aaron Gentry No
NDE, just read a lot about them. But I did see a person who had crossed over, and that was truly awesome for me! Good luck
This one made my brain tingle.
what do the eyes mean in hallucinations? I saw them just like this in my shrooms trip. though they were transparent. like oil or gasoline on water. but it looked just like the image in the video.
at around 9 mins Terence sort of predicted his own death... he knew months in advance
Excellent video, thanks for posting, much appreciated. New sub : )
god this sound quality sucks.
hes talking from the dmt realm 😅😂
and so do you
David Wilcock, with his series, Wisdom Teachings, makes a superb complement to McKenna. Terrence gives us the What; Wilcock provides the matrix of Why and How for the cognitively inclined.
death has been on my mind recently crazy if u really think about it. once we lose our physical human form what the fuck happens? i imagine the rules completely change but to what? oh well i'll have my answer soon enough
Guidokraut Mcragman I was having the same thoughts too. Started thinking about that after a very strong bong rip before a Deep Purple concert this year..everything felt meaningless to me if i was going to die..my first thought about this was when my grandfather died 9 years ago..i truly questioned myself..i asked my mom about that but she couldnt give a good answer yo 14 year old..my dad tti3d to explin it with a very interrsting analogy to a rollercoaster with limitedtimea of use but still i didnt feel that was the right answer. Ive been searching for the meaning, for the purpose for the last 2-3 months. I will for sure try DMT one day.
This thumbnail image is exactly what I saw when I looked at myself in the mirror on a high dose of Lsd. I must emphasise the word 'Exactly'. I'm not making it up. I could see all of my veins and muscles, I was surrounded by eyes and a blue stream of energy pierced through my head and spiraled upwards.
Damn bro how much did you take? Lol. I’m ab to do a heroic dose this weekend for my first time.
Are there any recorded dialogues between Robert Anton Wilson and Terence Mckenna?
I wish, it seems every conversation they had was not recorded, unfortunately.
Aw man, that would have been so much fun! :(
Psyolopher Wir müssen uns mit den Dialogen zwischen R.A. Wilson und Timothy zufrieden geben müssen. Und manchmal hilft auch Pacal ..
"In the moment of being, we have the completion of being."
@ 5:35 just blew my fucking mind. Holy shit, never thought of it that way.
Terence you fucking genius! He figured it out🌞
I am god itself looking at and experiencing existence from the perspective called "I" and so are you looking and being from the perspective of the "you" ....
terrence Mckenna is the fucking shit! a genius of his time! his brilliance was truelly of a Divine Intelligence! 🕉🔥👊
was this talk after he was diagnosed
No
No can't you tell. lol Most people who are in good health take a caviler attitude towards death. I do believe that this is the bottom rung of existence.
Getting old and losing your faculties is nothing to be desired. I think if suicide was socially sanctioned life would go a lot more smoothly for all.
Your age?
such a brilliant and eloquent man. I'm not expecting him to make me laugh as well.
Terence, when you say you would miss the point of life when you live forever , of course you would , but you do not realize it until you do... so that takes you to a vessel that you cant control, so you continue experiencing humanity evolution , but with different roles and points of view
Terence has passed already in 2000.
You would simply continue to grow and gain more experience. There's nothing wrong with living forever. Like the Buddhists do, they reach Nirvana, like Jesus, and when that happens, you can control the physical body, and come and go from it whenever you please. That fact of life is where we are at right now in society and it is slowly getting out there. Being able to tap into source means there will no longer be a separation illusion, and all the power we have within us will be available to stop eating and live forever.
Who agrees we as humans have been FANATASIZED about heaven...
While we forget to live for this reality..
Many are living for somewhere else ignoring the moment here.
Seems absurd for me..!
3:24, but what if one's natural lifespan was 50,000 years? How could one make any of these arguments? We are eternal beings anyway, so whatever form we happen to be in is an experience. I think the point is that you could be able to determine how long you would like to have that experience.
man, how did he learn to talk so well?
Does anybody know where I can find the entire discussion? I'd love to hear it. :) Thanks.
It’s so strange to me that he thought he had an issue w Buddhism “because he believed in the moment”.. #irony
I love that this man existed and I am such a fan and feel nothing but love and respect for him. Just wanted to be clear in case it sounded like I was talking down to him. I’m just so confused the way he was such an enlightened person but his person was so resistant to the idea of enlightenment. I just literally mean that it is ironic.
RIP sir
You are immortal whether you believe in it or not
You are ignorant whether you believe it or not.
@@johnmiller7453 Lol look up astral projection and have an out of body experience or wake up on your big day and learn the hard way like most ignorant do.
Wenn man jetzt mal alles zusammennimmt: also Albert H., A. E., A. H., Disney, T. L., R.M., Terence, Maria Sabina und weitere, kommt man zu folgendem Ergebnis: "Die Welt existiert, und das
Leben ist eindeutig!"
I am holding the bouquet! 💐
I've heard this before, which lecture is this from?
i really really really wanna know what was "too much to say"
this is great!
God has given the basic building blocks of all matter a chance to enjoy all that is. what he says is true (to me atleast).we are here to enjoy life and to sit back and observe all that is. so yes we are something that is introduced into matter.
Can someone please explain the background to me. I've felt almost exactly like that before on lsd
Austin Foucher visuals of dmt - lsd doesn't get you anywhere near this at whatever dose 😂
@@gainzmotivate
But he said he did
So I'm just a having a little trouble understanding death. If I get shot and killed, what's next? Will I know I died?
Your problem lies in the question. Who's I? The mental illusion that is the ego dissipates after death leaving you to join the universal consciousness of life. Pragmatically speaking, what does that look like? How would I know? It's my ego that's allowing me to type these words.
i like to think im an rc car, my body is anyway. and when i die, i will go on to a new game.
we all have around 7,000 hits of dmt in our brain. I think that all hits you at once and you know that your body may not have anymore use, but your soul will spread into everything and will live forever
No sef you would wake up
no you can only experience the moment. you may bring learned lessons back though
Once your numbers up, your numbers up.
Listen OSHO
I wouldnt want to live forever but I wish we could age twice as slower
Check out this video on youtube:
"Shut up and get out " by swami chinmayanand..
I don't feel in any way comforted by this. Should I take DMT, psilocybin, a mug of Ayahuasca, what?
I NEED TO GET MY HANDS ON DMT BEEN LOOKING FOR AWHILE AN NO LUCK
start going to music festivals
Don't look for it, let it find you. As corny as that sounds.
Little late but onions are useful
brilliant
Lmfao at 4:57 anywhere! This inflection is so rare from him
Terrence McKenna convinced me there was something more to consciousness and he convinced me it was worth giving dmt a try witch was absolutely worth it lol
Has anyone ever heard of anyone who said it wasn't worth it?
As much as I hate juggalos...check out the drug Iboga.
Dave France yeah, thats perhaps at death..
Dave France what if i find it myself, people say they are never ready
Interesting to me how you can damage the brain in such parceled ways, so as to know the names of tools but not your friends. Yet people think our soul or consciousness or whatever can rise off the body upon death, speaking English and recognizing grandma.
Who is Sam Harris,?
great ending
But what the hell is death.. darkness forever ?
Well, that’s the big question. What can possibly be connecting us to anything other then yourself and your own consciousness. Dreams, and living through a endless dream, would probably be the furthest anyone with no spiritual experiences would go in believing and trying to figure out what could be possible beyond our own death. We are made to believe that our own thoughts are the only thing that is connecting us with our reality, and that’s the only reality there Is. But these vivid dreams, where your dreaming of something you don’t quite understand, don’t happen coincidentally, these dreams happen when the brain produces DMT in the pineal gland. And when we come to life, and the moment you die, your brain produces massive amounts of DMT, but what for? We don’t need DMT, when we don’t have a body to experience the difference or any effects from it what so ever, do we? So why does the brain still do it? ... And why does this illegal chemical welcome us to earth, by giving us tons of It through our whole body? Fortunately for us, we was given the opportunity to explore DMT in our own minds, while still being conscious, by smoking it or drinking it. That’s of course, If we feel comfortable enough and are curious enough, to seek the untold wisdom in nature.
Such a limited perspective. I thought this guy was 3rd eye open, like a shaman, but he literally just compared the cutting of a cup to the cutting of an animal, saying that we didn't lose anything in cutting the cup, but we did lose the animal. Has he not ever tried using a broken cup? I just can't listen any further while he explains "other clues", what a total scrambling job. No sir, you don't have "the matter down pretty good".
mef1975 I think you're looking at the cutting of the cup in terms of it's post-cut practicality towards those who use it. But he is looking at it intrinsically. When a living being is cut in half, the effects of that cut spread across each half until everything on the inside is affected by that single action. Whereas once the cup is cut, the internal pieces aren't affected, only what has been cut.
I would give a million dollars to have a scientist show what a idea molecule looks like or a feeling of love protein 😉👍✌
Who would want to live forever in this fucked up pc world
No it was before his diagnosis.
subjective symbolic significance? he often has a crack @ buddhism but then, conceptualizations do tend to proliferate. more so under the influence as it may be. is that so? question everything!!!
LOVE!!!
dude, imagine if we were escaped souls from the soul prison in another dimension. 😡
YOu're close imo. This is the prison planet. We're trapped here by reincarnation. I'd be careful about going into the light or making any agreements after death.
wow
"You can't be deader than this!"
☝️😁..
maybe Superdead will do .•°
Sum of all it parts seems to be what life is... I'f I understand him right...and death is the answer that you can't for what ever un known reason...know...then collapses back into the parts of it ...and perhaps do something else that you just can not predict...like a child playing with toy bricks...building these illusions of existence..maybe we're just concentrated points of a higher beings imagination..I do not have that much imagination anymore but I do remember it...vagualy...what if some lower demential being lived and died in my old thoughts?..or what if they just collapsed into future toy bricks that we all might one day be...or maybe it was always only just me...or maybe im just fucking too high...damnit im going to bed...
Its only been 2018w seconds in this life.. am I coming back 6666 .. neggaaaaaaaa.......
Wow, he got the death he wanted somehow
Rip
How come this dude missing his skin AND has two sets of teeth?
i am indigo child and i think your astral body isnt imagination, and i can not die..
7:30 ;)
