I read something recently, that i first read many many years ago, only formulated differently, then, as it said: “You are what you think” – i heard it in a video docu about a Swedish guy without legs or arms. And this guy had been to, like Majorca for vacation..
AND some guy, some local, was right about to head off to some cliff or something to KILL HIMSELF – BUT, on his way there, he ran into this all-limbs-gone-guy and seeing this limbless guy SOO HAPPY, made the guy simply REPENT to all – and reconsider his entire life…stopping him from killing himself – all, just seeing this Swedish guy..
The simple joy that the guy had, just brimming with total JOY, even tho he had no limbs at all – MADE that suicidal guy CHANGE HIS MIND!
And in the docu he mentions that Sitting Bull allegedly had coined this saying..
Now what i heard recently was: “Your Life Is What You Think It Is”
And, FIRST NOW, even carrying that quote with me soo many years (because Sitting Bull is my personal shurdurpersav; spirit i PRAY TO – and one of my Heroes)
But, anyway.. HELL, FIRST NOW, I REALIZE THAT THIS IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT!
Just think about that – a guy with NO ARMS AND NO LEGS: JOYOUS, HAPPY, FULL OF GLEE – PLEASED AND CONTENT!… NOW, HOW CAN THAT BE…BECAUSE life is What You Think!
If you think life sucks it sucks – if you think; hey, life ain’t so bad, then it’s pretty ok..
That’s when a drug like LSD comes into the picture! Because LSD, as with mushrooms (the drug i have experience of, never tried LSD) – but from mushrooms, same thing– i mean, look at the adult NORMALS – they all are angry, and very very ANAL – but after mushrooms, that effect on the mind; CAUSES YOU TO DROP OUT!
As Timothy Leary said: “Turn on, Tune in & Drop out! That is one PURE STATEMENT!
Cannabis is also the same….i mean, just look at Bob Marley – he was a man of PEACE AND HARMONY – i picture him as very NOT-ANAL – the adults has all not yet done those drugs, SO THEY ARE NOT YET COMFORTABLY NUMB! They have not NUMBED-OFF from the MAELSTROM – they have not don what Leary pointed out..
When you even STOP THINK…like some one explained to me about the main statement of Eckhart Tolle – to turn off the constant, nagging think-process – drugs like mushrooms or cannabis can help with this..
After mushrooms….you just drift, all is a FLOW – and you just flow with it, on sunny summer day like today you just belong to the single moment at hand, in some cozy flow – you becomes COMFORTABLY NUMB: You don’t ponder about stuff – like that Zen Buddhism saying: “In Zen Buddhism you don’t get the answers you lose the questions..”
And nature, MOTHER NATURE, is a DIRECT SOURCE OF ZEN – but you need to really get OUT THERE– i would recommend you stay in the woods/nature, for about 2 weeks, till the food runs out..
TURN ON TUNE IN DROP OUT..
