Wow this is a really crazy thing you experienced there. I have never had that kind of experience but I still like to daydream about stuff like that. I try to imagine different scenarios, for example whether if it would be possible if everything we are is just a feeling or if this world is maybe just a thought of some other being. Maybe also if we are just living within a simulation but to be quite honest I don't really like to think about this life as a simulation. Everything seems too real for me to just be simulated by a computer and I have no idea why somebody would want to do something like that. Either way I don't really understand that concept and scientifically seen I have absolutely no idea if this would be possible. To find an answer to the question why we and everything around us exists is really confusing in my opinion and all I really can do is doing some thought experiments that are super intersting to do but at the same time kind of overwhelming. Still it is a lot of fun for me and hearing from others what they think about that kind of question is super exciting as well! :)

THATS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN THINKING! Like, maybe we're all different neurons among one big brain inside someone/thing extraordinary. And maybe when that woman said "you are nothing but a feeling"... She meant that each person represents a feeling/sensation/emotion among one being. Maybe our feelings are really just microfeelings making up just one simplified feeling. But what feeling am I? Or you? And if we are only micro organisms within one being, what is the galaxy?

Or was I just high as fuck basing everything on a long shot?

Have you watched the netflix series Black Mirror? Alot of it is based on simulation theories haha its really neat. I couldn't agree more those who do not question who we are or where we came from are dull and slow in my opinion. There are so many theories it's so overwhelming... I tried to go back to that vortex for months and never could. I kept a coloring book I'd write my thoughts down in crayon while I huffed nitris and whippits. Everytime I reached an answer, or thought I did... It was "Confusion" .... Maybe that was just the drugs. LOL I've found taking psychedelics really opens the mind to exploring new ideas, thinking outside of the box, having real spiritual experiences. Mushrooms teach you that you are one with the earth while Acid shows you are one with people... It gives you a sort of spiritual, "There's gotta be more than this" feeling.

I'm not sure if you experiment with drugs. I've always seen them as keys to other demensions, keys to the brain. There's something fascinating about the way our minds can be one way and then 20 minutes after injesting something a switch is flipped and everything's altered. That switch, it's the neatest thing to me, and the doors to the brain they open allow for more self learning than most give credit for. If you use them right they can be very therapeutic.

It is starting to get strange because our thoughts are so similar, I had the exact same idea:D
No I haven't watched Black Mirror but it sounds like a show that should check out, thanks for the recommendation!
Actually I have never taken any other drugs than the alcohol which is pretty normal. But in this case I find it more destructing because my brain kind of stops working properly when I drink alcohol (and I tend to forget A LOT even when I don't drink a lot. This is something I really hate and often keeps me away from drinking...).
I read this really often that those psychedelics you talk about can open up your mind for new things on a spiritual level but besides that I am still not quite sure if I dare to take something like that, I have no idea where to get that stuff from. Everybody in my surroundings ''just'' drinks and smokes (the common things) so I don't know anybody who is experienced in that area.

I'll bet if you ask some stoner friends you'll find some (: it's very important to be with the right people. Energy becomes something that takes control of your trip, so you need to be surrounded by the purest ones. Not the party type, go for the friends you sit and talk about the universe with. You'll both benefit (: its better to do them with someone whose experienced it themselves so they can help guide you away from any negative holes you may suck yourself into otherwise. Most stoners are down with mushrooms. "Theyre natural" lol

Dude, on a serious note I can't even imagine the art you'd come up with on a psychedelic brain. You'd be extraordinary. Its almost like you can take a blank wall and project the image you have in your head directly onto the blank canvas and trace it with your pencil. All with your mind. I swear, they give us keys to parts of our brains we normally can't open.

That sounds like a dream of mine because it is nearly impossible to get my drawings even close to what I imagine them to be. Well, I guess if the opportunity should come my way at some point I propably won't say no to it :D
