In a dream all of it grew to become clear.For effectively over 50 years I’ve thought concerning the brightness that was in my head on this acid journey I took means again in 1968. It was a life altering expertise that I might by no means actually clarify in my thoughts. Even in any case these years passing and the truth that I stop all medication and alcohol means again within the mid 1970’s it nonetheless stays recent in my thoughts .Truly I believe the psychedelics are the place I acquired the energy to stop all medication. That is how they helped me,they gave me an interior energy to do what I actually needed to do with my life . It appears now right here in 2023 others are discovering the advantages of opening the door to your notion of this circus we name actuality. Effectively, the opposite night time I used to be dreaming and was in area .There was stars and vacancy all over the place however one star had a distinct sort of mild .It was distant however shining brightly.As I slept I stored dreaming and this entire concept of how the complete universe is simply pure vitality got here into my thoughts.All the pieces is vitality and the vitality area is infinite as a result of vitality cannot be destroyed or created it might solely be modified backwards and forwards between kinetic vitality and potential vitality .Considering deeper I concluded that the universe most likely pulses backwards and forwards between these two vitality states and that is all there may be , nothing extra , no man within the clouds passing judgment, no something simply the brightness.When the brightness was revealed to me via psychedelics it really absorbed me. I did not expertise it, it simply was and I used to be it and it was me and every part all on the similar time. It is simply vitality , that is all there may be. No life or demise , only a optimistic and a detrimental to every part .The vitality that makes up us isn’t destroyed or now not in existence it simply transforms into different types because it merges with the encircling vitality area. It is an infinite technique of backwards and forwards. Then I awakened .It was an odd peacefulness that I used to be in and at that time I understood that it would not matter what I or something or anybody else does.It’s very random and with out which means .The vitality simply is and can at all times be . Kind of like reincarnation however not as one thing we will even start to know. It isn’t as if you’re going to come again as a canine or a fly nope, the vitality has countless prospects in it is ever altering dimension that’s means past us and our skill to grasp . Once I woke I believed how fortunate I used to be to have made it via that journey. It was so highly effective and I used to be on their lonesome. I’m nonetheless figuring it out greater than fifty years later. On the time I had no concept what I had skilled however now I am understanding why native folks within the jungles and deserts and mountains used these medication to information then with visions . Now I am studying about how persons are utilizing psychedelics to beat well being issues and failed remedy . Here’s a hyperlink to an AP article about this:

Very fascinating learn . I’ve a pal who went right down to South America round 6 or 7 years in the past to take this drug with shaman . His life modified drastically for the higher in his opinion. He divorced ,left his life right here in New York Metropolis behind met a woman , moved to the Yucatan and began a household. I do miss my pal and using and dealing on bikes collectively however once I take a look at it objectively I believe he is proper , his life is best now than earlier than as a result of he is doing what actually issues to him. It truly is wonderful what a full blown psychedelic expertise can do. It might drive some completely mad however for others it shines a lightweight on the trail ahead via the darkness. It is good to see that these items is lastly gaining some acceptance . Once I do my digital artwork I kinda go in the direction of that place I went in my thoughts all these years in the past however they by no means come near the depth of what was that night time 50 some years in the past. The one within the center is form of what was however not likely.The brightness is one thing that may’t be captured in artwork or with a digital camera however it’s a supply of inspiration for artwork. I started making artwork 10 years after this journey and have by no means stopped.
That is the place all of it comes from.
