The dance goes from realizing that you're separate (which is the awakening) to then trying to find your way back into the totality of which you are not only a part, but which you are.
You are joy, wisdom, peace, compassion, and love
Now is now. Are you going to be here or not?
You are loved just for being who you are, just for existing.
The most exquisite paradox; as soon as you give it all up, you can have it all.
Psychedelics helped me to escape.. albeit momentarily.. from the prison of my mind. It over-rode the habit patterns of thought and I was able to taste innocence again. Looking at sensations freshly without the conceptual overly was very profound.
