Very well. Grief is depression. A=B.
………………………………………………………………………….
Re. A:
Depression is hopelessness. An internal dark pit where no light gets in.
But! Light is somehow the key to the universe. Speed of light inviolable, all that…
It is unnatural to not let in the Light.
And the Light gets in, always, anyway, beyond your control, contriving to rectify,
purify
you
by distillation, refinement.
There would be no such thing as suffering if there was not non-suffering.
……………………………………………………………………………….
Re. B:
Grief is situational.
How you deal with it depends on your metaphysical position.
Often it refines your position.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
A=B, ok.
Accepted.

Grief. Depression .. what to do about it?
What if I said, “eat some magic mushrooms?”
You would likely scorn me.
But the same science that classifies and observes and experiments now says
Psilocybin can help…

Listen: go there! A guy named David Nutt (not kidding)
Says
“psilocybin actually caused activity to decrease in (brain)areas
that have the densest connections with other areas …”
These so-called "hub" regions of the brain
are known to play a role in constraining our experience
of the world and keeping it orderly,
he said.
“many volunteers described a feeling
of the cogs being loosened and their sense of self being altered…..
psilocybin enhanced their recollections of personal memories.
………………………………………………..
Robin Carhart Harris from Imperial's department of medicine,
who worked on both studies,
said the results suggest psilocybin
could be useful
as an adjunct to psychotherapy.
Nutt cautioned
that the new research
was very preliminary and involved only small numbers of people.
"We're not saying go out there and eat magic mushrooms,"
he said. "But...
this drug has such a fundamental impact
on the brain that it's got to be meaningful –
it's got to be telling us something about how the brain works.
So we should be studying it and optimising it if there's a therapeutic benefit."

MMCAL;
i dunno what we=talkin about. dont u remember?
i dont...whaaaaaat was it?
when u die, get u into heaven.
drugs, what is a drug?
we have two alternatives these days:synthetic
or natural. i opt for the latter.
i know of a fine english gentleman, aldous huxley,
who did his share of drugs.
he came out sane.
"At the core of the Perennial Philosophy
we find four fundamental doctrines.
First: the phenomenal world of matter
and of individualized consciousness —
the world of things and animals and men and even gods —
is the manifestation of a Divine Ground
within which all partial realities
have their being,
and apart from which they would be non-existent.
Second: human beings
are capable not merely of knowing about the Divine Ground
by inference;
they can also realize its existence by a direct intuition,
superior to discursive reasoning.
This immediate knowledge unites the knower
with that which is known."
this is way way old school, boys and girls.
Third: man possesses a double nature, a phenomenal ego and an eternal Self, which is the inner man, the spirit, the spark of divinity within the soul. It is possible for a man, if he so desires, to identify himself with the spirit and therefore with the Divine Ground, which is of the same or like nature with the spirit.
Fourth: man’s life on earth has only one end and purpose: to identify himself with his eternal Self and so to come to unitive knowledge of the Divine Ground.
they do not illuminate
so much as
lubricate
my mind
my body
places where only
love goes
maitake
chaga
reishi

turkey tail
zhu long

etc
my favorite brew
rated with love
And alas . illumination is not only a personal thing.
Once it has been reached, in half-or full-form,
Its injunctive is to be commucnicated.
And illumination consists of…acceptance.
The most difficult sell on earth, for it would destroy the economy & take us all back to primal roots never spoken openly of,
Only shown in metaphor, on our many projective screens (tv movie etc)
… the place of final grounding.
We skim over it, land there, fly again, distracted from the economic needlust.
We must learn to ignore this, but it is subtle………..
You know this really makes me think...
Ultimately, I chose LSD... CLEAN LSD as my way to get 'there.' The 'shrooms have a certain toxic effect on the gut you see.
But, I know... I know
Remembering when u laughed..
Ah, it is not the best way, but it is often the only open way…
To trust in a substance…in order to feel right…briefly…and if this brief
Encounter becomes eternal, in your lifestory, then well, so be it, hah.
TR IG: I only pass along medicinal hints. Culled from thousands of patients I have cured. Some of them myself, surely…repeated performance of anything leads to spiritual ennui. And physical. I abhor & eschew such stuff………………….
Femme…no need for a gal like you to do these drugs. They are for adventurers who have no goal, no motive, no clue..that does not strike me as you, a centered woman.
i will not stop till i have hacked & searched and
turned the Web upside down.
this is your best likeness,
i felt!
i had to dumb it down for us guys.
the true firechick woulda burnt
yer eyballs out, boyo!
If anyone wants the fungus amongst us just come to where my family's from- East Maui. They are growing everywhere, all the time, all around here, if one would know where to look. Hint- the National Park is absolutely brimming with them ... and they grow on the path through a Bamboo Jungle ... Holo Holo (Travel Over) People in need!

I have never liked the light. Only tried drugs three times and they made me so damn depressed that was it.
HUGGGGGGGGG
