WatchMARS-1 & DOZE GREEN Collaboration
These two visionaries apply their own creative formula with some spiritual substance to underlie the visual experience. Geometry, shapes, and cosmic motifs. Keep your eyes peeled and absorb the light. (via colinmday)

Psychoneuroimmunology
Lately I’ve been filtering my experiences through the lenses of a hypnotherapist, and how each and every one of us flows through the constructs of our surrounding environmental and social terrain, and how these factors invariably affect our psyche, and in turn influences the immune system, the endocrine system, gastrointestinal system and, well, pretty much every system in the body.

My First Trip to Salvia Divinorum
First off, I’d like to make known that all videos exhibiting the various salvia trips, even to the slightest degree, do no justice as to what the person is actually experiencing. Not only are they embarrassing themselves publicly, but they are also creating a negative impression of salvia, which plays right into the hands of people who would like to make it illegal. This is actually the case in...

Polarities
“Wholeness is not achieved by cutting off a portion of one’s being, but by integration of the contraries.” –Carl Gustav Jung
In general people usually like to think in “black or white” or “wrong and right” terms. When we see things in terms of these polarities we are closing ourselves off to the possibility that others may see things differently.
The...

Consciousness
My experience is, that there is but a single consciousness, a single spirit, which is (in) everything. This spirit is basically fractal which means that every single part of it, to the tiniest bit is a scaled copy of the original whole. Every single little bit-of-a-bit, every atom, every quark, every quantum, every part of it IS this consciousness. Possessing each aspect of it. Separated from all...

Watts on LSD
To become the sensations, as distinct from having them, engenders the most astonishing sense of freedom and release. For it implies that experience is not something in which one is trapped or by which one is pushed around, or against which one must fight. The conventional duality of subject and object, knower and known, feeler and feeling, is changed into a polarity: the knower and the known...

What am I? I am nothing. Which is beautiful, because that says I can also be everything. Why become something when you can be a little bit of everything? Our unfolding can be revealed in an infinite amount of forms, all within our fingertips, where the only limit is our own mind. We are still evolving, am I right? We are constantly evolving; and even when one is devolving, one will bounce higher...

Electromyograms (EMGs)
The normal frequency range of the electrical activity in the brain is between 0 and 100 cycles per second (cps), with most of the activity occurring between 0 and 30 cps. Muscle frequency goes up to about 225 cps, and the heart goes up to about 250 cps, but this is where electrical activity associated with biological function drops off. In addition to these, Hunt discovered that the electrodes of...

Meditation is a state of mind which looks at everything with complete attention, totally, not just parts of it. And no one can teach you how to be attentive. If any system teaches you how to be attentive, then you are attentive to the system and that is not attention. Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life - perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is...

Those who say "I have to listen to my heart," and...
The heart is an emotional mind, and emotions are triggered by desires. When we say, “I have to listen to my heart and do whatever the heart says,” we can very easily misguide ourselves because the language of the heart we are listening to is polluted by desires. But if the mind is purified and devotion and dispassion are attained, then the heart tells the truth.
The mind doesn’t...

The Self is beyond birth, death, gender, class,...
The Self is pure consciousness—it is beyond the characteristics of the mind. Pleasure, pain, anger, hate, attachement, anxiety, are within the mind, and they are expressed by sensory responses in the body.
The mind controls the gross body, which is simply matter, composed of five elements. Nevertheless, this gross body is the mark of a living being. All of the labels worn by this...
