GETTING HIGH WITHOUT DRUGS

Wouldn't it be great if we could get high without drugs? Imagine you would be in full control of your emotions, would you not generate for yourself the highest and most pleasant experience and feeling?

But this seems simply impossible. Emotions don't feel to be "made by me". They rather seem to be the reaction to external conditions and stuff like a hot girl ditching you in the club or something. But what role do I play in this scheme? Am I merely a bystander and victim? Well Buddhism and other doctrines have it that we are actually not. According to them, we carry a whole lot of stuff with us which later acts as the condition for certain emotions. So it's not the girls fault but my own. Why? Because I am horny and needy in the first place, liable to be disappointed and denied by my beloved. But what in the world should I do against my sexual desires? Aren't they something natural and unavoidable? Somehow yes, I would say. However, imagine the case of you having a girlfriend but not being sexually satisfied. Often you felt terrible emotions because of her not wanting it or something. Now imagine you being super immersed in the film of the century, your girlfriend comes in and says something like "sorry babe, today I am really not in the mood, just wanted to let you know" and you are like "ah ja nevermind and now silence, Billy is about to win the cup woman!" Where did the sexual frustration go? Well, there was simply not enough room for it in the mind of the guy.

So what if I could be so immersed in something all the time that I would never be swept away emotionally no matter the external happenings? Could work. Actually this reminds of the aim of Buddhism and Meditation, that is to keep your center and to not get emotionally or intellectually lost in the environment or whatever. And here comes the banger. I actually experienced this to work. I mediate and practice yoga and at some point, when my immersion and concentration became deeper, I literally
became high. Just like this, without any drugs I felt this tickling sensation in my body. This calm and relaxing feeling which carried away all my worries and fears for one moment.

So I am sure there is a way to get high without drugs, a way to be the master of your emotions and well-being. It may be a far journey but it is definitely worth the effort. Maybe I could inspire you a bit to try getting immersed and centered too. I would gladly give you advice as to how to practice this, just comment or pn me :)

Peace !
