Greetings all. From my view of things, the most powerful teaching that Sacred Medicines gift is the temporary erasure of our conditioned ego-referencing. Perhaps one might see this as the brief cessation of the isolated, finite self? Certainly all beings experience this during deep sleep and unconsciousness. Yet, the way that psychedelics dissolve the solidity of individuality is most remarkable, as it is a wholly conscious realignment. Conscious of exactly what? My humble belief is that the psychonaut becomes conscious of primordial conscious-awareness itself. Call it: Brahman, the Godhead, Christ or the Eternal Tao but it remains free of any and all rational quantification. As such, it's the unique type of awareness that is wholly epicentrical, multi-dimensional and even multi- directional. This doesn't allow for subjective perception, per se, for such a deep remembrance tosses all associations with ordinary perception into sheer oblivion.
Some might emphatically argue that there is no different between deep sleep and Samadhi states... from my windowsill, the distinct difference is that while asleep or dreaming, everything is obscured by an acute absence of all capacity of any conceivable degree of control over one's own awareness and it's direction. By stark contrast, while in full-blown eclipsing of the peak moments of an entheogenic compound, a far greater sense of existential being is then programmed of perhaps even, imprinted? Which is quite a topical catch word these days. Anyhooo... I do still say "imprinted" as the process requires no thought nor conceptualization and is dynamically interactive. That comes later on, after touching down to earth as a kind of sacred remembrance. Deeply rooted in the formlessness of the Source, mortal cognition abandons all boundaries and divisions betwixt this and that, yours and mine and such a state of being even shatters our cherished separation from God, through the duality of our collective, mortal religious worship.
So the notion of oblivion arose in my thoughts today. Of what special significance is the Medicine Journey oriented? Through much reflection and intentional grounding, a message comes to the forefront and that is the message of Unity perceived within diversity. Whether bathing within the bliss of spiritual Satori or suffering from the painful struggling which the isolated self believes is "reality"... I have come to resonate with an understanding that the subtlest and truest nature of primary existence is essentially indivisible in nature and while it cannot possibly be known as an objectively concrete thing, it surely magikally creates, contains and re-absorbs all strata of this grand tapestry of life, recycling the energy and inertia back into an indivisible whole. IME, 5-MeO-DMT reveals this shining truth with more power and limitless love, that any other known of molecule encountered by those who journey.
I welcome any and all comments. Wishing you each illumination on your intrepid journey home! Namaste all.
