Is DMT a shortcut to enlightenment? Are shrooms a shortcut to enlightenment? Is ketamine a shortcut to enlightenment? Are psychedelics a shortcut to enlightenment?<br /><br />This question seems like a simple yes or no, but even this whole video couldn't fit all the stuff I'd have liked to talk about... It's usually not as simple as having a psychedelic spiritual awakening from just taking LSD with your friends in a festival, but what about taking a high dose of LSD alone in silent darkness and meditating throughout as well as integrating the experience afterwards?<br /><br />There are many psychedelic awakening misconceptions. Psychedelic enlightenment is not as simple as it seems (both to those who have tried psychedelics and those who haven't). There's a lot of psychedelic traps, psychedelic pitfalls and general easy to make mistakes when trying to understand this topic. <br /><br />In this video we go over what you need to know if you're the type to dismiss psychedelics as a spiritual practice, and what you need to know if you're planning on using psychedelics as a spiritual practice. <br /><br />In my opinion (though I remain mostly agnostic), awakening with psychedelics is do-able, but much harder than "just taking the drug". We also discuss ideas such as Alan Watt's "If you get the message, hang up the phone".<br /><br />–––––––––––––––<br /><br />Psychedelic visual effects by Symmetric Vision:<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFfJzhPdy9E898xntaxKZRw" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFfJzhPdy9E898xntaxKZRw</a><br /><a href="https://www.symmetric-vision.xyz/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.symmetric-vision.xyz/</a><br /><br />–––––––––––––––<br /><br />Link to where Terence talks about psychedelics bringing you to push the breaks as opposed to wanting to push the accelerator (mentioned in video):<br /><a href="https://youtu.be/heGCdpuhLso?t=692" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/heGCdpuhLso?t=692</a><br /><br />Background song used: Fast Lane by LAKEY INSPIRED<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVBNkEu3pzo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVBNkEu3pzo</a><br /><br />Donate:<br /><br />Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/TripTips" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/TripTips</a><br />Paypal: <a href="https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/triptips" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/triptips</a><br />Bitcoin: bc1qxg8kyt6krum0hl9hd9xqshmcus64c8lgrhl9dc<br /><br />–––––––––––––––<br /><br />Note: This video is not promoting the use of drugs, it's made for harm reduction.
