This video also features 3 clips from Joseph Cambell's "The Power of Myth" interview with Bill Moyers. Joseph John Campbell (March 26, 1904 - October 30, 1987) was an American professor of literature at Sarah Lawrence College who worked in comparative mythology and comparative religion. His work covers many aspects of the human experience. Campbell's best-known work is his book The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949), in which he discusses his theory of the journey of the archetypal hero shared by world mythologies, termed the monomyth.
Since the publication of The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Campbell's theories have been applied by a wide variety of modern writers and artists. His philosophy has been summarized by his own often repeated phrase: "Follow your bliss." He gained recognition in Hollywood when George Lucas credited Campbell's work as influencing his Star Wars saga.
Campbell's approach to folklore topics such as myth and his influence on popular culture has been the subject of criticism, including from folklorists, academics in folklore studies.

I was in school one day and I had never done any drugs or even smoked a cigarette. I had an out of body experience. As soon as I saw the top of my head, I was startled by it and snapped back into my body as if attached with a stretched elastic band. Never happened again unless during my sleeping as a child.
Lol... sports, Hollywood, and soShill media are the downfall of society... not something to be proud of... or encourage! I did agree with some of this... but those three things are how the few control the minds and the actions of the many.... along with schooling. They are not good things... they are fake culture for profit by your masters. Bread and circus!
dude these video keep getting better. Love what you are doing, spreading the good word. 🤗 🍄

I was raised in the church and took psilocybin some years after walking away from it. This video is the truth. While on my trip I walked in the forest, and there a large, old, oak tree called to me, or I felt drawn to it. When I looked up through the branches to the sky, the sunlight and leaves danced like flames, and when I touched it's bark, the tree shared with me it's experience, I could feel what it was like to have roots, the tickle of mycelium poking nutrients into my roots, drinking vast amounts of water and breathing it out into the air through my leaves, the heat and cold of many seasons. I quit my job and I grow plants now :) I hope everyone can have a similar experience, because now I read the bible and delight in it's subtlety and wisdom, yet Christians want none of it. Shame, the truth is SO much more magnificent and beautiful than the shadow of it they know. God cannot fit inside their box because God is the box, or rather The Universe is God.
I had a conversation with a female tree spirit in a church yard slap bang in the middle of London. All rather magical. An experience I hold very dear.
All there is is love. I think we keep calling that love but we’re the love. Soooo were the god we seek. I’ve been there a few times. This “being alive” is the trip.
"god" is a synonym we gave to the universe, and it got all muddled when we tried to personify it
I wish I could save this comment!
Allow me to recommend The Hidden Life of Trees, by Peter Wohlleben. He selects a handful of trees around the world, and visits them year after year for a decade. The way that he manages to portray each tree with it's own internal life really helped me step outside my own consciousness, outside of even being a human, and step into being a tree for a short while.
He has a whole series of these books based on various creatures, but Trees is a great entry point for someone new to the idea; many people just seem to think of trees as natural features rather than living things.
I can absolutely confirm this video. What makes it absolutely real is I didn't take them anticipating any of it. I thought it would be "trippy" and fun and I'd end up watching a movie and laughing. I was wrong. I did Mushrooms for the 2nd time in my life a year ago, when covid first started and we were all stuck at home. My experience was hard. I saw what type of friend I was from my friends perspective, what type of son, boyfriend, brother, co-worker. It's not that I'm a "bad" any of these things. But I saw the truth, without my ego able to protect me. It was difficult and very uncomfortable. I saw the flaws in my views of the world and of others. I saw the ways my insecurities made me envious or jealous. I became rattled with shame when I saw the games I have played to keep people at a distance for no reason. It was all so unfiltered and I felt like I died. Any vision of who I thought I was, was a lie to myself. I sat quiet in reflection for 2 hours. I took a deep breath and I submitted to all of it. I remember thinking, "don't judge these thoughts, let them in. Just sit with them all" I asked myself questions, why the hell haven't I done X or Y yet in my life? Why am I still behaving in X or Y way? Why do I treat my body awful like I'm 20 still and will live forever? It was an unrelenting assault on every aspect of my life and who I was as a human being without any ego to deflect or preserve my false sense of self. It was an absolute flood that poured over me as if I was sitting at the base of a waterfall of truth. I wrote down a thought I had in the middle of it. 1. Get right with myself. 2. Get right with loved ones. 3. Be right for God. I laughed at this the next day for a couple minutes but I felt a shift in myself. From that day until today, I have a new insight or awareness at all times that didn't exist before. If I'm being a jerk in a bad mood, I see it immediately and shift out of it. I shift away and out of argumentative situational traps, I live and enjoy the moments with loved ones more. I don't know what the hell happened when I did them that day, but I tapped into something inside my core that I had never been able too before because it was buried under so many layers of self ego and self preservation. I was able to keep that pathway preserved afterwards and that channel is something I'd describe as a new self awareness. Id sum it up that, life is short, our time with loved ones is finite, our dreams and opportunities are fleeting. Be true to yourself, Be better everyday. Live in the moment. Be someone worth being around. Every moment of life is either an opportunity to make a memory or an opportunity to create regret. God is more real than the society which makes you doubt his existence every day.
I don't watch the news anymore, I don't care about all the fear propaganda. I got married afterwards to that girlfriend, and I'm about to start a new career that I talked myself out in the past. I get less anxiety, I take moments to tell my family and friends I love them. I don't know what the hell happened that day but I tuned into something that changed me and I'm grateful for it. Death of the ego is real. Kill it hard and fast and live your authentic life.
I love what you wrote, thank you for sharing your profound experience!!!!! To be honest. while I am eager I am also very hesitant. Fear is a powerful primal emotion to be overcome. (Case in point what is being done to the human race at this very moment in time.)
Thank you for sharing that...
I’m so happy for you!
ah man thank you so much for sharing, your experience completely resonates with mine just a week ago, and I love how you are able to feed into your intelligence and articulate it in such a beautiful and poetic manner. you exerinces are exact what I was doing to myself. this past week I did an ibogane trip and it was incredibly profound and something I will never for get. I thought i was in control and the outcomes of my success i only had myself to thank and put myself ahead of god, and the shattering reality was something beautiful to behond his abundance of intelegnce and grace, and this overwhelming voice of reason stopping me from negative thoughts and behaviour. i don't know you from a bar of soap but i wish you all the best. maybe your new sense of self have a lasting impact on the people around you, and don't stop spreading your story and sharing your wisdom. Thank you so much
@@ThePrimeVID Thank you for the kind words. all the best to you brother!
Psychedelics changed my life. From denying spiritual reality to experiencing it directly, 10 minutes was all it took. I was permanently changed for the better and for that reason alone I am eternally grateful 🙏 🙏 🙏
10 Minutes .... May I inquire- DMT?

Y'all should look into The Great Reset being proposed by the World Economic Forum, it's also backed by Trudeau and the Royal Family. Stay safe and get informed. They claim that "You will own nothing and you will be happy." This shit is suspicious, especially since they tried calling it a conspiracy theory only for the Royal Family's official RUclips channel even posted a video of it. Australia is aware of this and they're being censored, both by FB, Google, and others.

@Maxwell Scott What do you mean? Can you educate me?

Such a bs quote. The the separations between mind body and soul are outdated as can be... it is now proven the metaphysical realm made up by humans, is nothing but metaphors for actual biological and chemicak processes of our brains. After you say theres always someone who goes “but thats depressive, it means theres no magic or meaning beyond this experience” and my answer is dude if you dont recognize the human experience as a miracle and as mindblowing as it actualky is you are totally out of your mind. Life is crazy magical it is spiritual in its core without being spiritual, deal with the fact that the whole is one and everything is as it should be.
Yes. Though we just are...
@@dvrds I agree with you. I lean towards atheism and through my spiritual practice its been hard avoiding all the supernatural beliefs that aren't proven (i don't want to base a big part of my life on that). at first i thought that is what spirituality was kinda, which confused my beliefs but now i'm realising, i don't need to believe in for example the concept of souls so literally to connect to my "spirit". they truly do seem to be just metaphors/synonyms for science
I'm so glad that this type of stuff is becoming more mainstream, maybe there is hope for society as a whole to become enlightened after all

Earth is a school to advance a soul's development - people are at different stages of their advancement. Some will need multiple reincarnations, we learn lessons at different points. Ascension falls upon a soul when, where, and how it should - awakenings are spontaneous and divinely planned.

I died last weekend. I took 20 grams (wet) of golden teacher mushrooms, led on the couch and saw myself as a 90 year old man with leathered skin and little hair. I couldn't feed or hydrate myself any longer. I was too tired. I was about to die. It really put this very moment of life into perspective and has made me realise how precious life is, how precious love and family is and what it means to me. Holding a grudge against someone is so utterly pointless, because we are all going to die one day, and then nobody will care.
20 grams, holy shit! What an incredible journey that must have been!
A certain amount will bring you to the death trip everytime, but if can let go, it's really hysterical 🤣 to just be in the humor of it all
@@jamieleemeyer2993 20 grams wet. Equilivant to 2 grams dry, so a pretty ordinary dose.
You felt that spiritually but physically in the real world you were probably dying of thirst and realized how water is life
I took 10 grams dry in December it was the worst experience of my life. I do not regret it but I definitely stick to small doses now.
During a recent lsd trip I became more conscious about my positive and negative duality. I decided to take the bus to visit a friend who lives in the city near me, and my negative side started to worry about having a bad trip caused by strangers and all the things you know are coming when you go into a crowded city. And when my positive side said to my negative side aloud “I trust you”, my negative side felt a wave of love that opened it up to a new connection based on friendship and trust. We then gave each other our hand in pure honesty and love, and it was at that moment I healed my inner world from a state of war to a state of understanding and compassion. I took the bus and the trip was good. Psychedelics and nature’s creations are the only medicine that will heal our mind and body. To end the wars that we suffer in our outer world, we have to end the wars that we suffer in our inner world.
I love your experience and thank you for sharing it but this is also available to us without anything other than witnessing our own breathe in silence💜
amen bro
Just wait till you graduate to non-duality. Just remember, every trip is a bad one. Just gotta learn how to steer
Sadly, there are people who actually benefit from war and they can accept those who don’t as collateral damage.
@@Mockduck2020 I guess then we have to make it so that the only people that die from war are the ones that profit from war.
I wish I had these videos in highschool after I shattered my ego with psychedelics. I did them for all the wrong reasons, thinking I'd just "trip out" and see a bunch of colors, but I was wrong. I saw so many things that I didn't understand, so many random correlations and connections that I was overwhelmed and entranced by the mystery of my experience. I started to spiral down a psychedelic drug journey, but luckily for me, my teacher gave me a book about Taoism and that led me to Alan Watts, which gave me a lot of guidance and reassurance in my journey. For anyone who read this, good luck on your journey.
Your teacher is a hero!
Taoism is very very interesting. I agree. I experienced an ego dissolution (or disillusionment, haha) at 16 years old with 1000μg of 25c nbome. I was alone in my room. I could never have foreseen that experience, and it changed my life forever. I know I 'went to a place' that is real, and that is also what DMT shows you... But... These realizations will often tell you what your 'heart' knows already. The problem is listening to it, which is really introspection and also listening to others about what they say about you, especially someone close to you... or in the case of Freud... but I digress.
I think psychedelics should be treated with great responsibility, and very rarely done, and secretively, ritualistically just like those ancient Greeks. It isn't a drug, and personally I would not take many of the existing psychedelic compounds, only the naturally occuring ones and synthetic ones with sufficient research done regarding their toxicity profile. Lsd is a harmless synthetic compound. I think they can be used for specific purposes, but unfortunately we do not have a spiritual practice in place for people to have group psychedelic experiences, which the ancient Greeks and Romans (up until approximately 350ad). The only thing is... The ancients would live out the stories, for instance, at Eleusis. A person really would become Persephone... In that, it makes sense how it was so transformative for them, because it was based on centuries upon centuries of tradition.
Love this. Glad you’re on the upside. Ive been an addict the past 20 years… its still tough
@@philosphorus Imagine that... having places today where spiritual practices were valued and studied and experienced... instead we have tik tok and phones to stare at all day... And that's a fascinating idea that they really would become the gods. What a way to grow and experience the world in novel ways.
@@tiffany8028 being an addict and racking yourself with psychedelics is a little different. You do it for the same reasons though...
... and this you shall do in remembrance of me "
Absolutely love this. Ego death truly feels like a physical death. Very profound
Yeah it does it can come as dissociation as well turning the familiar into the foreign
Definition of ego (Webster's)
1: the self especially as contrasted with another self or the world
2a: EGOTISM sense 2
b: SELF-ESTEEM sense 1
3: the one of the three divisions of the psyche in psychoanalytic theory that serves as the organized conscious mediator between the person and reality especially by functioning both in the perception of and adaptation to reality- compare ID, SUPEREGO
We need to be more specific when we talk about something as serious as death.

There is no thing called Ego... al there is... are... indentity... believe... and interest but to whom... Can the perceiver be perceived???
@@StarLink85 yes but our minds aren't developed enough to make that connection. People come into contact with outside entities constantly. We have to be able to acknowledge when it's happening
They are the same, because the idea of you, is just that, an idea. It doesn't exist, just like the word "I," isn't you. It's just a line--a symbol. Physical or spiritual, all who die are awakened.
“If you die before you die; when you die, you won’t die.” That’s the motto of the monks on Mount Athos. I made a pilgrimage there a few years ago and while there was certainly no psychedelics involved, it was a beautiful experience.
This comment needs to be seen by more people.
you don't need psychedelics
good to read this, because right after the video i started to think i needed psychedelics
This book is a distortion of the Truth. So as the psychedelic drugs, they will deepen you more in this trance of life, the real death is the ego suicide, through humility’ not some drug consumption.
But as usual the greatest lies come wrapped in the red ribbon of truth .. but inside the beautiful package - lies
@@amalialavric7164 I can tell that you didn't read Brian's book. If you do you will eventually understand. Long story short, the point is, on Mount Athos is that quote because Christianity is the continuation of the Greek "pagan" rites ( there are a ton of evidences to back that up). And the so called "drugs" are not drugs at all. We are not talking here about synthetic stuff. These are plants from the nature that old civilizations used for so long, that Christianity' s2000 years of existence is nothing at all. There was a remote time when civilizations were matriarchal based on partnership where altered states of mind were very common. Our present civilization is based on patriarchal dominator culture who overthrown the old ways. Think about Christianity for a second: why does it hates drugs and women so much? They went so far to persecute throughout history the so called "witches", and echoes of that mindset still can be felt today. You are a woman, you know better than me what it means to be rejected from church in certain scenarios. "What greater weapon is there than to turn your enemies to your cause? To use their own knowledge against them?" - Yes, that is what Christianity patriarchal dominator cultural style is doing to us today. In 4th century A.D. when the last heterodoxies were destroyed - like the Gnostics - Emperor Constantine the Great turned to Christianity "because he saw a firing cross on the sky" - do you really believe that fairy tale? If you were an Emperor of that time, especially of the Roman Empire, you would had made some strategic choices in order to protect your Empire best interests. Unlike Nero which persecuted a lot of Christians, Constantin realized that killing a lot of your own population is "bad for business" (because yes Christians were many). After that, is well documented the fact that the Bible ( which was surprise surprise written in Greek ) was altered and copied so many times that was natural that the messages were lost, misinterpreted ( on purpose or not ) to fit certain political views of that time in history. It may sound like a conspiration theory but if you take the time and do the research you will see that all I am saying is well documented and more likely to be true, than the stories they tell you in the church. It sounds grim, but you better wake up because this is the REALITY. (sorry about my not so perfect English spelling).
This is a big part of why psychosis, one of the most frightening and surreal times in my life, was likewise one of the most pivotal.
You were psychotic? What did you see?
@@ruschev2 Lots of things that are a bit hard to explain without sounding crazy hahha. My favourites were these butterflies that were made of this sparkly technicolor light, they felt like they might be from an anime. Some were more frightening. Auditory hallucinations were the worst.
@@ouo7343 wishing you well. Psychosis must be a hard thing to go through but peoples experiences of it interest me a lot.
@@ouo7343 I used to get auditory hallucinations from sleep paralysis as a teenager.
Same! (I do have to say, it mattered who was in my company at the time also)
I had experienced psilocybin and I say I got ice chilling experience... Time and space was just an illusion... I experienced feelings, pain, orgasm, evil and good... chaos and order... I become one with whole world... Other people became as inseparable part of me... There was no me, but whole world is Me... I could be at many places, lives and dramas and tragedies, families at the same time... I felt You guys are Me and I am You... so connected
... I was fighting depression and philosophic suicide thoughts before this experience... but now I enjoy life... I look at all of you as part of new experience... The memory is priceless, ability to feel is priceless, time that never stops is priceless... law of physics are priceless, nature is beautiful and priceless, death is dramas ending not actual death... That's why we enjoy acting, films and literature... because we see actors as us but don't understand deep about it... You're all amazing people... even evil ones has their porpoises... you are to do so to let us understand more about good and evil... attention, love and peace is our target of enjoyment...one bonus story I experienced I been in a place filled with every woman on earth and all of them and I was feeling as am all men on earth... and we connected and if felt so warming loving, caring and unimaginable orgasm...
After DMT, just once, I have inner peace and no longer fear death. That’s an amazing breakthrough for me
You don’t fear death while in a safe environment but i bet you would if you’d be threatened with a gun by some dude.
@@Slk223 I agree that would be a fearful situation, I still don’t fear death
I stopped fearing death after having experience so much pain in life. Sometimes I really miss my loved ones who are gone, and sometimes I wish to join them. However, it I not my time yet.
@@Slk223 youre probably right, me personally i fear the process of death that could involve pain lol rather than what happens after
dmt and near death experience for me..... very similar in many ways.... there is much we don't know here.... and now. but that's also OK. part of the journey for each. dmt also gave me peace about other stuff.... like being alive... its amazing stuff
This is so true. That is what happened to me. I literally had a breakdown because of all the craziness in our world. Then the next day I woke up, made changes and now I am happier than I have ever been. I never loved myself and now I do.
The "craziness" in the world wasn't the problem. The problem is you're wanting what you can't have. Unless you come to grips with your absolute mortality, you'll always be wanting.
My friend I had a breakdown i think may be similar on a high dose of lsd. We can discuss somewhere if you want?
A breakdown? please I'm not clear on what you mean by that?
I want to love myself! What was the dose?
It took me a divorce, loss of custody, loss of family, loss of all possessions, loss of health both physical and mental. After 9 months of suffering I began to love myself again and did shadow work, then I took about 3 grams of mushrooms (dried) and walked thru the woods, then walked home and meditated in a completely dark room for many hours. 3 days later my wife came back w my kid, my job is great because of the people, and I know myself and am truly grateful for both the suffering and the end of the suffering. I want nothing beyond what I need to survive, I have everything to give. I’m not “enlightened” but I’m deeply and completely changed. Embrace it all from despair and pain to ecstasy and love.
My brother who attempted suicide multiple times in his life used psilocybin about 3 years ago with the purpose of having this exact experience. He took a dose way above what would be needed just for a trip. He has not had any suicidal ideation in these past 3 years. When he told me about it, as he knew I struggled with suicidal ideation since I was 10, I was totally on-board to try it, but my husband was nervous about it. Well, my brother got the psilocybin, and we were trying to schedule a time anyway. Then, in January 2022, my whole family got sick. I couldn't sleep despite using Nyquil and even heavier stuff prescribed to me; every time I laid down, I couldn't breathe, so I had to sleep sitting up which is impossible for my ASD brain to handle. And I would finally fall to sleep when one of my children or my husband would be up needing something as we ALL were so sick and Moms don't get a break when everyone else is feeling cruddy. After 4 days of no sleep, I had a vision. In the vision I saw things that my Mom later confirmed to me were true, things I shouldn't have been able to remember from my childhood. I saw why I was on this Earth, and that each one of us is personally known to the Creator, a loving Father in Heaven; each one of us has a purpose in our journey through this life, and those who want to find that purpose will find it when their hearts are open to the things of God. I saw that currency of this world dies with this world, but the currency that matters eternally is our time in this life and how (and with whom) we choose to spend that time. I saw that the events of the last few years have been allowed to happen to expose the spiritual warfare which is plaguing our society and trying to undermine our democracy in the United States. Anyone who values Earthly currency over a human life should not be trusted, and is working against God. Since seeing these things, I have not had anymore suicidal ideation, which plagued me for over 25 years of my life. I still get tired, and I've learned I can't speak openly about my vision because people today do not believe visions are possible, or chalk it up to mental health. But then, why would I remember things from when I was 3-4 years old, that impacted my life so dramatically? And have those things confirmed to me by people who also witnessed miracles?
As I was only going to take psilocybin to re-structure my neural pathways, and my vision did that, I haven't had to take them. But I believe the same effect was achieved through my 4 days of no sleep. But, as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, this video makes me think of two things: the first is how Lehi had his vision of the tree of life, and his son, Nephi (pronounced knee-fi), also wanted to see the vision. So Nephi fasted and prayed, and was granted the same vision. The second is, "When they are learned, they think they are wise", a scripture from the Book of Mormon (Mosiah 3:19). There is a lot of "learned"-ness in this video, but I believe that anyone who truly wants to experience God, will be able to experience this. But, this is why so many Christian churches actively preach against my Church-- the idea that we all have God-hood capabilities in each of us, and can receive visions and understanding directly from God, is pretty radical. Still, it was Joseph Smith who, in the process of restoring the Church to the Earth in its entirety, knew that spiritual warfare would keep many from opening their minds to the possibility that there was a God in control of everything. This was an interesting video, and I appreciate the person who made it.

I have dabbled with tested psychedelics and let me tell you that everything i have learned up to this point is clearly acknowledged in this video
I can confirm this feeling. During my dark years I dropped 12 tabs of acid. I was on the verge of suicide. It was alot of fun for the first couple of hours but when all reality melted away, I felt I had complete control of reality. That my will was reality. After the feelings of euphoria took its course, my vision went black and I saw the world tree. From its branches were the souls of everyone I have ever known. I could feel them and hear them.
In time - my vision collapsed into a black hole. There was nothing. I was nothing. In a breach of something I can't even comprehend anymore was a burst of life. The very foundation of life was a circle, and I saw several of them. I grasped this feeling of existing as if I never existed in the first place. I told myself that I was ready to live again. Apparently this moment is known as Ego Death. My peak started to settle and I went back to the fun and simple hallucinations. The colors started to wash back in and I saw reality melting as before again. Eventually I came down on it and the only thing distorted was my hearing. That eventually passed.
How I wish I can remember and comprehend that moment in better clarity. Its been a while.
What matters is the feeling it left you with. This you will remember for eternity. You never left that moment.

God is the timeless entity . so it makes sense to understand the divine when you have lost the total concept of ego space and time.
We aren’t individuals with an individual soul, but one universal soul experiencing a human experience. Experiencing life.
Yeah nope. Your definitely not me.
We do have an individual soul. And there is a reason for that. At first eternity was all there is. Once eternity became self awareness it had no idea of knowing who or what he was because there was only unity. So in order to find out it used intelligent energie, love and light in order to create. By dividing itself and creating conscious galaxies, then solar systems and planets in which we developed in body-mind-spirit complexes from a small portion of the collective consciousnes and an individual soul. withe the purpose to experience life, learn lessons and getting to know itself. Bij looking and connecting with others selfs we see our selfs at divine co-creator.
I did mushrooms with a friend ONLY ONCE...completely changed my perspective on life..i became a successful touring musician, i now own a landscaping business and i feel "love" a different, more intense way. I remember the exact moment...my brain and everything about me just went....oh yeh that makes perfect sense
Nice
lol
exactly, changed my life.
May I say...This book and story resonate with very part of my being. I have experienced death as a PTSD treatment..several times. And the reprogramming I have received has changed my reality and my story here on this planet. I was a Navy Seal medic for 16 years before I lost everything. After 5 years of helping other veterans, addicts, and victims of trauma heal their minds...I can assure you that the best therapy...the best medicine is not at the pharmacy. It's in nature. God's medicine. Reset and rebuild your life today. As for the story of Christianity... well I can assure you that truth is a quest to be discovered..to be experienced. No one will do it for you. I believe this story is true. 🙏
I experienced this on psilocybin mushrooms!! It's a real thing!! There is no one on this planet who can convince me that I didn't die!!! It was absolutely the most profound thing I've ever experienced!!!

Respect the mushrooms! This last summer I tripped for 3 days in the desert. MY intention was to escape and experience cool visuals, feel happy, trip on sunsets.... the MUSHROOMS intentions were the complete opposite. They threw me into a terrifying existential experience and forced me to face head on ALL the negative memories and tendencies I have/had. I am now in a better place and actually moving forward in my life. POWERFUL MEDICINE!
Lol where can I get some, asking for a friend 👀
Now that's a helpful anecdote right there. This stuff is unpredictable, across the board, and everyone's individual chemistry is unique. But there's no denying the benefit of a good trip. Maybe bad trips have a purpose, too? But I used to say that everyone should take at least one hallucinogenic trip, to understand the indescribable nature of this reality, and the experience of transcending it.
So you had a bad trip.
@@rocks4brains no it was a good trip. There is no such thing as a bad trip, only learning experiences. Because of this my life has become drastically better. People that call it a "bad trip" are not using the mushrooms spiritually and medicinally but are using it as a party drug. Which is fine, to each their own. So long story short... not a bad trip😁
@@Kya_._Papaya I wonder how do people get those shrooms? I mean it's not like they are sold at the pharmasy. I'd love to take a trip like that but geez, getting the shroom is not an easy task.

“January 27th 2007 is a day that will live in infamy, at least in my backyard, anyway. That day, I had the greatest stroke of luck ever! I had a brain-stem hemorrhagic stroke. ‘It was the worst of times, it was the best of times.’ I was in hospital for almost 4 months. I was very lucky to live. The nurses and doctors who took care of me inspired me to become a nurse. What they do for their fellow man, I thought, I could also do. It was my calling. As Jung says, Until the unconscious is made conscious, it will continually appear outside as fate. Did my reckless abandon in living life cause my stroke? Why, yes it did. But it had to happen for me to blossom. It was an unconscious process that led to the conscious life I lead now. Therefore, I have no regrets. I was in a coma for six weeks and I was clinically dead a couple of times. While I was in ICU, I got direct existential and undeniable first-hand knowledge that the spirit could live outside the body. I had an out of body experience where there were two beds, with me in both, and the Ocean of Consciousness said to me, ‘The one on the right cannot live. Only the one on the left can.’ In a way, I was born again. But what I have to say to you is, 'Noli timere' - 'don't be afraid.” -His Holiness Scabber Sam, Discordian Pope
Don't be afraid! Sounds simple huh? Once achieved though you are unstoppable and can go were or when you want.

This is not a science channel, just wanna make that clear.
First mushroom trip I experienced the sunset pouring happiness into my soul...only way I have ever been able to describe it. But in that moment I knew it wasn't the psychedelics that caused that realization it only let me know it was always there
That was my experience. Everything we need to be the person we want to be is inside all of us. All of these toxic chemicals we put inside or bodies to chase peace are actively harming us, and we don't need any of it. Psilocybin just helps you understand that in a deep, profound way
Thank you for sharing your brief, yet erudite wisdom that always eluded my tongue when summing up my sensation to friends.
I’ve taken psychedelics en masse in the past and became very acquainted in the effects, but there was always something about every experience that left me feeling like I missed something important. One night everything clicked into place and I was put into an extended flashback that lasted several days, I studied Numerology, Psychology, Religion, Etymology, Geometry, Pretty much all the -ology’s I followed the Alchemical steps which I reflected upon my 7 chakras and dove deeply, “unkinking knots” in my own psyche and weaving it back together. Through this process I experienced a death of self and an integration into my environment, like my bedroom became an extension of myself and vice versa. The experience completely changed my outlook on the world.
I am happy for you that you could have these experiences, truly I am. But what about those people, like myself, who don't have the slightest clue as to how to get Psilocybin and then how to use it properly? And that right there is the most cruelest thing about After Skool. Makes all these great videos on psychedelic experiences and freeing you mind and dying to you ego BUT then fails to inform us how to do it.

In fact, it could be said that Western civilization derived from Africa. Several good Books have been written on the subject, giving greater detail on what the Greeks and romans learned in Africa and took home to make it their own. They weren’t the only ones, as the Chinese and almost every other group on the planet has gone to Africa to learn.

I had the most intense mushroom experience of my life a few weeks ago (5g of a powerful strain) with my two closest friends. These are the notes i wrote the day after:
Jay became someone else - a cosmic being - "The Jester" - could not bullshit, could not be bullshitted to. His laughs were mocking ours, like he saw something we didnt (fake haha, serious face, exposing glare); clairvoyance, spiritual possession, transcendence. Said over and over "I broke the wall, I didnt break the wall.", "you were supposed to say that". He knew everything we would say, like speaking was futile and we all had a common understanding of this. Ego died, all that was left was the presence of God / the balance / The spirit of everything. Incredibly humbling. Lesson: to relinquish control (stop being a control freak) and let destiny guide me.
This moment felt almost exactly like AoT; I am Mikasa, Armin is Connor, Jay is Eren. When Eren exposed Mikasa's lack of free will. Our dynamic is very analogous.
Jay:
"We're going to laugh about this tomorrow" It looked like 'insanity' or 'manic behaviour' but was undoubtedly the highest form of mental clarity I've ever seen; we reached a certain wavelength of consciousness together. I can understand how someone can get stuck in that limbo. Mind operating at full capacity constantly, no rest. The Reality of Reality is too much for one brain to process. Madness may just be a perpetual awareness of the inconceivable, unprocessable truth of reality.
Jay:
"This is a dream, we're going to wake up. Or is this real and the other side is the dream?"
I was frightened that I may have thrown Jay into the deep end too quickly (his first time doing mushrooms). I worried that I broke his brain and sent him into "madness"
Jay : "Whatever happens, don't let me hurt myself"
Time became fluid; an illusion. Maybe this is why we instantly felt high after eating the shrooms; the trip consciousness transcended into relative timelessness. Probably not though lol.
Reality deconstructed layer by layer. The foundations of existence revealed themselves like points on a 4-dimensional grid.( I tapped into this sensation when I smoked my first bowl in highschool and said "This feels like a video game - it looks like a grid".
Reminds me of how The Matrix is made of the machine cipher (green symbols) and gave me the sense that reality is malleable and can be controlled by tapping into the source of consciousness. (Like how Neo bent "reality" with his breath once he realized "there is no spoon") After all Neo is an analogy for Christ hence his abilities to perform "miracles" i.e. "bend reality"
Psychadelics are the "Red Pill" of our Universe. The conduit that exposes the reality of reality i.e. the Matrix.
Our lack of free will was clearly evident to everyone in the room. Connor: "It's like we're not in control". We are all part of something bigger than ourselves; a master plan so to speak.
The "trip" was a literal trip. It took us to different places with different thoughts and different emotions, sometimes converging, sometimes splitting away; all leading to different destinations and takeaways.
We explored our own thoughts in our heads separately, but also connected and felt eachothers thoughts almost telepathically. A "below the surface" deep level of emotional communication I never thought possible. Makes me think of 'Neuralink'.
It felt like the plane of dreams leaked into the plane of our perceived reality. Reality became encrypted, much like a dream, and my mission was to listen to it and learn from it.
I didnt feel like I was in the driver seat; my actions werent my own - destiny took over. Every action was "supposed to happen" just like Jay said. Every song that played, every song I thought about skipping but felt deep within me that I shouldnt.
Convergences:
The kitchen - reality "sinking in", with Jay's "possession" as a conduit.
The Death:
Jay: (ego briefly surfacing) "I have to say this... we're waking up after this"
The Rebirth:
The union of brothers; shame was dead; just embrace, love, and acceptance.
The Sendoff:
Going together to look at the stars. It looked like the stars were dancing; the gasses toward the centre of the milky way were visible.The constellations connected like a web. Stars looked like the tree of life, the vines dangling above, enveloping and welcoming us. Reminded me of "The Coordinate" from AoT, the tree from The Northman, the "Tree of Souls" from Avatar.
Followed by my pondering, learning, confusion, and acceptance. Acceptance realized by my interaction with the moon. To me it was unbelievable, unreal. I've seen the moon beautiful, red, and low, but never like this, and especially not as part of the conclusion of a profound experience. However to the others, it was unimpressive and ordinary. The acceptance that the path I walk will be a path of solitude, but I will find those that I am destined to meet, and do what I am destined to do.
I am a soldier in God's army; we, the enlightened, are all connected and working together to serve God's plan. My next steps are to relinquish control and let God pave the path I walk on. Stop resisting his voice; follow it and embrace it. Everything that has happened and will happen was meant to happen and is out of any one person's control. Control is an illusion. God didnt create life and abandon it; God always was, is, and always will be everything, because God is the Source. The Roots. The coordinate. God is where we go when we die. Destiny is real and it has already been written, and I am okay with that.
"Co-Incidences"
• Jay almost didnt come
• I almost didnt bring the mushrooms
• Ryan cancelled last minute
• Mitch wasn't available
• Tania and Andrew left when it was required
• Nobody was at the cottage; the weather was JUST shitty enough to keep people away, and just good enough for us to thoroughly enjoy it despite unpromisng forecast
• The most perfectly clear sky to observe the stars; which is exactly what we set out to do.
All sums up into the IDEAL trip situation. Nothing went wrong. I fail to see how it could have possibly gone better.
Just like how an infinite number of variables had to perfectly coincide to create life, an infinite number of variables had coincided to lead me to these realizations and us all to this profound experience.
Bonus Observations:
Consciousness is a frequency that we get dialed into. The frequency can be modified
It is true that we are "spiritual beings" and we are "fallen from God" so to speak.
My sense of "I" became unmasked. I felt that I have a human body, rather than I 'am' a human body. The brain is a receiver of consciousness whos frequency can be intensified, lessened, and completely detached, but our consciousness is ultimately grounded in this reality until death
We spend life asleep; this is truly the only time we are awake and experiencing reality
Or a spectacular illusion that goes nowhere.
pathetic
Brian Muraresku is an absolute sheer force of knowledge on this subject. Watching his podcast with Joe Rohan blew my friggn mind.
Check out Mike Tyson talking about his experiences smoking the toad poison. 5MEO of that and you'll experience death like the Greeks. FOR SURE!

After 75 years of searching for the truth, and all that I have already learned, this is the most profound, because it describes what the mind is incapable of describing for itself. At first, I questioned Mr. Campbell's perspective of immortality being " just being alive" , but that is the whole point. Samadhi meditation strips the mind of all personality momentarily, so the extent of our personality living on may be in question, but the point is is that this life will go on forever. I have experienced that, and perhaps that's as important as seeing this video. I learned this in multiple out of body trips, remote viewing and extended remote viewing (yoga trance travel). Meditation is a good first step, because it gets you clear of your egoic thoughts. Even something as safe as trance state does not guarantee you will come out of it untouched emotionally. You need to be "ready when the teacher does appear" . Thank you for this work of love!

The fact that Brian has never experienced this medicine makes this so much more amazing and mind blowing because everything he is saying is true from my experience with psilocybin.
That’s because you can still experience the effects of psilocybin without taking any external substances.
@@moma8518 You mean you can still have a "psychedelic experience" without substances. Maybe through breathwork, kundalini, or sensory deprivation, which i have tried, you can feel similar, but when ingesting psilocybin it converts into a different chemical and triggers certain receptors in the brain which is a different experience and can be longer lasting. Although I do agree you can get "there" without substances. the experience is different then having never taken any substances
I love seeing this country in its stages of awaking. It reared its head in the 60s and early 70s and now it's making an amazing come back. More peace, more love, more understanding of self and empowerment. More NOW, as in being here in the moment.
Thanks for this video! Amazing 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

For example. Instead of smoking weed or any drug that releases the dopamine in our brain, we must learn how to release this chemical manually within us
Happened to me.... I realized there is a supreme mind that organized this beauty and that there was a good & evil, just like there is a black and white, night and day, yet all part of the same... Led me on my search for God and a purposeful way of life.
I definitely believe this to be the secret.
the COVID hysteria definitely proved the evil nature of humanity.

explaining the effects of psilocybin and experiencing it are so different and it's something you can't explain.
the artwork you do is so great! thanks for all your hard work
Thank you! 🙏

I’ve had the same experience meditating that I had on psychedelic substances. They take you to the same place. The biggest secret is “right here, right now” and is within you, but you have to go within to get there.
i'm highly doubtfull you can get to such a state as DMT by meditating only.
let alone things like lsd which allow you to interact with the world in that state.
@@alkeryn1700 I know friends who can astral travel in meditation and see the "outer lights" just as people do on psychedelics.
because you have dmt in your pineal gland released
@@TheVgasm 100. He can't because mind closed. He knows all, can't learn.
@@Remykapel don't assume shit from people.
yes you can do a lot of things with meditation, but i don't think it can be compared to lsd or dmt.
these techniques are not substitutions but trade offs.
i'm not saying one is better than the other, but that they simply are completly different beasts to one another.
LSD is not dmt, dmt is not psilocybin, psilocybin is not meditation.
they all can bring you to both different and similar places.

10/10 highly recommend.
Ego death, to find something profound. The realization is in this moment, of self actualization... Right now is an eternity? So interesting!
And the most clearing fact is: you wouldn't find something profound, because you are it yourself, fully!!
Kukeon or not, when the urge is felt in you, The Love (or The Life) helps you to become that.
Enjoy! :-)
Ego..is actually every thought, and all the by thought modeled memory..
It is your conscious mind, and your unconscious mind.
Ego is the 'me' and 'I', you unconsciously gave it the only central place there is in you.
This always self-centered action, comes from that.
You might say you love your partner till your last breath..but you factually do it for yourself, which is Ego.
So, thinking of death, particular the Ego, is thinking by the Ego itself..it will cunningly create a new 'me' and call it a died ego..
You are never able to trick the brain, it knows directly what you mean, you gave it your centre.
It is this mind, who want to find something profound, for it's own benefit, and find what you like..
The only proof we as humans have, for this ego not to interfere is: stillness.
Stillness, when it happen, is not emptyness.
Going deeply: stillness is complete! ( as the brain did not 'google' with it)
Stillness, which words cannot explain..
No one can help you to be that, only You.
You are The Life, not 'having it'..
You be The Love, not 'choosing it'..
Silence makes the thoughts, shut up. :)
Enjoy the moment:-)

On my most powerful trip, I was destroyed and created over and over and I didn’t have a care in the world as i cease to exist at that point. Likewise returning to the fold as pure energy was so powerful an experience and appreciating being able to exist and experience something all, good or bad… Bringing these memories back gives you an almost immortal outlook on life going forward. What have you got to loose anymore? No longer fighting the clock of life to get things done, just living in the moment.
”I’ve never Done psychedelics” ye right afterskool
lmaoooo
Brian’s actually never done it, or so he declared in multiple occasions, like every single podcast and interviews I heard about his book. And there’s no reason not to believe him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You better.
Haha, but no, he really hasn't. He's aware that his years of work could lose credibility or face skepticism, though I believe he said he will try eventually.
Its a difference between afterskool and the guy talking...
It feels so good to see the world follow the path, opening their eyes to all before them. Giving into love .
HOLY SH*T! I remember listening to this video a while back, but I don't remember the importance it correlated to in my life until listening this time... 26 years ago I took some LSD with a friend and experienced a quite terrifying trip. But at the end of it, I begged my friend to find me a bible. He handed it to me and I opened it and the first verse I read was, "To enter heaven, you must be born again". At the time I literally thought I was just about to be sucked out if reality and start my life over from when I was born. Then my friend told me "born again" meant baptized. Now, I realize that he was just showing me that I had to go through that trip in order to wake up and appreciate every moment in my life. I remember thinking how every single second is precious and that I should constantly be doing something productive and not waste any of it. Sadly, Ive wasted SO much time, it's disgusting.
“Never done psychedelics myself, I just draw a hallucinogenic mushroom every single video I make” lol
Ehm- the guy who talks isnt the guy who draws. The guy talking, like any other video on this channel basically, is not the drawer! So yeah, that makes it more interessting.
OOF
There is a very powerful entity sitting between your ears. Please use it.
Seriously doubt it
Read the book guys, he hasn’t done psychedelics purposely to protect his credibility. All his findings come from hundreds of books, and over a thousand journals. 60+ pages of references to be exact.
This channel is so amazing i have no words. Never had so much fun learning before, the exact opposite than from the ordinary school system!
"Best kept secret in history"
Spoiler alert: it's drugs
No, it’s inward consciousness. It can be enhanced with hallucinogenic drugs. This is why Jesus spoke in parables, not everyone could handle the truth.

"Die before you die" means to let go of your life before your body dies. A lot of people are going thru that right now, in 2023, due to so many people being exposed as fakes. It's causing so many people to give up whatever it was that they were working towards, and then they will come to know that their life was all up to them the whole time.
Psilocybin was hands down the most transformative thing I’ve done in my entire life!
What changed?
So jealous...I've abstained out of caution, because I take meds that might conflict with psilocybin...
I took ayahuasca and it showed me endless love. I have seen infinity and the universe. There is no god. We are god.
@@Leprutz Isn't endless love a description of God?
@@Leprutz agree
If you read the Bible and think of god as a psychedelic trip then everything makes sense
God is with you all the time
He is watching you
He loves you

Oh, and obviously wrong
I remember trying LSD in the 80s it's indescribable. I truly believed that it changed me forever. When I came out of it, I felt transformed. It seemed I had a new understanding of myself and the world. I only did it twice successfully, the 3rd time was the absolute worst experience I ever had as well. Be careful out there kids this wild frontier, can kill ya on occasion.
Maybe the 3rd time was the most successful
and yet you're still going to die just like the rest of us.
Thank you for share, what did you learnt from the last one. van you tell us more.
Did you do something different the 3rd time.? Maybe alcohol was involved.?
Very encouraging that young people are thinking. It took me 60 years to understand that I am divine, sovereign and free. The kingdom of God is within us. It's not a literal place.
4 years ago I had a phase of burn-out and fell into an episode of intensive thinking and rumination. Don't know how, but I got out of there, with a whole new understanding of life and the universe. About 2 years later I even had an experience of the deepest form of happiness and I even decided to move on from there, because I realized that deep happiness wasn't even what I'd desire. In those last years I found a deep connection to nature, religion and humanity and imo I found the meaning of life, the truth about god, and of what I've read so far, I get Jesus, Buddha and other religious teachings. Now, that this video talked about the necessity of dying during the lifetime to get to this point, I remembered that during to my thoughts I went through my future life and got to the end of it, which led to Nihilism and that burn-out phase of depression. So maybe that's the trick and it doesn't even need a potion or drugs. Just deep intensive thought. I still think it's possible, that all of that feeling of clarity and deep connection to nature and religious teachings might just be an illusion to escape nihilism, but somehow it doesn't matter that it might be just an illusion. The only thing that frustrates me sometimes is, that my understanding of life and the world isn't common sense and that therefore there are aspects of life I can't share with the people around me, because they don't perceive them as I do (or at least that's what I think) and this leads to a feeling of isolation. And as far as I know, my believes could be total bs. But life is treating me good, people are kind to me and I think I have a positive influence on others. So those believes can't be that wrong.
@Linas Shmoods Awesome hearing that you've got into such state of peace and acceptance and quite interesting, that you got there in a similar way. So there quite probably might be a way to reach that point through thought .. I mean drugs just induce thoughts too, so even with them your brain has to do the work. Let's see where all of this leads us to 😄

why seperating? Doesn't we share the same consciousness on some level?
@@oOxXTimXxOo it's not all the same consciousness my friend. Look around your society
@@davidemmanuel3001 I look in the eyes of every human i meet, and i see only myself in a different form!

Without seperation, life is not possible.

It blows my mind how it isn’t one of the top 10 books in history. Hopefully, it’ll get there. Brian spent over a decade on this book, travelling to Spain to find archaeological evidence of psychedelic use.
