Well, one thing is clear: the book is a mind-blower. I’m intrigued enough that I’m going to take a look and see if I can make sense of it. Like you, I’m wide open to all kinds of experimentation, though I’ve not tried DMT or Ayahuasca yet. But like T Van Santana, the conclusions I’ve drawn thus far lead me to sober meditation ... which when it works, feels like a real mind blower to me.
I've been down the drug-consciousness rabbithole myself and have ended up in sober meditation. That's the one for me. But I respect everyone has their own journey with this and there's no one right way or even set of ways. Better to search than not search, usually.
This was very eye-opening. I wasn't really familiar with DMT or Ayahuasca, but I enjoy reading about things I know very little about. I also love contemplating the nature of the world around us and how we factor into it. I'll be sinking into a deeper mode of thought for today. Thanks for this!
Such a captivating review and exploration, Charlotte! Thank you for sharing! Really, we don't know much of anything at all. Most especially when we're stuck in that "outward" mode.

Another vote for Sober meditation, love it! If you read the book, I’d love to hear your opinions.
Hmm, just tried to find the book in my local library system ... no such luck! Still looking.
Hmm, usually you can request the library to order books by the ISBN number even if they are not currently in the system.

Yes! I agree. Many types of exploration can be rewarding. Love the sober meditation and yoga deeply myself also.

Yes! Me too. Anything that challenges the mind to expand is what I’m here for!

Yes. Outward mode is a good way to think of it! Need the balance of internal and external. The idea of existing with no senses is still haunting me...
Interesting stuff. Thanks for the breakdown. I might give the book a whack as well. Cheers.
Cool! Thanks for reading. If you pick up the book, let me know. I keep thinking maybe I should start a psychedelic book club... haha one day.
