		<description><![CDATA[Nothing quite like a psychedelic experience for blowing the cobwebs out from the canyons of your mind.

Raja Ram is quite a legend on that level, and he is also a lovely, intelligent and highly creative man. A while back I read a book, &#039;Mystery School in Hyperspace: A Cultural History of DMT&#039;, in which there are some stories about Raja&#039;s escapades...he is hard core. My tripping days, for the most part, are over, but every once in a while....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shanti, to me your mash-up of spiritual experiences with drug trips sounds like confusion.

I`m not looking for love in a pill.
Or for a fix from any “masters”.

Maybe come down to earth a bit, bro?
It`s good here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shanti,
If your heart is open and  loving, it  is open and loving. 
Whether you ascribe it to Osho, Jesus or anyone else is your choice, and  a matter of imagination.
 
You also ask, “What if someone was telling you that your experience of heightened consciousness after taking acid was just your imagination, a placebo effect? Wouldn’t that seem absurd to you?”
It wouldn`t  be so much absurd as meaningless because the experiment could be repeated with other people and they would all feel the effect of the drug because it is a strong drug. 

Some of the trippers might feel they are spiritual and some may feel chased by the devil. And a whole bunch of other possibilities. 
That would be down to their imagination.

You also say, “The problem is that the ‘clarity’ you speak of is not the clarity of a meditator or a devotee but rather of a doubtful mind.”
You are drifting into Swami Bhorat territory here, bro.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@ Frank

Yes, I see you did not get a personal account. Why not?

I can imagine the reason is your negative attitude towards Masters and such things.

Instant Karma!

Btw, nice song from John Lennon.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@ Frank

You must be open to feel the Love. If you are not open, you don&#039;t feel anything.

It is similar to watching a sunset. If you are not open to see the beauty, you don&#039;t see it.]]></description>

The Master not only loves his disciples.
He loves also those who have left him.

Remember the story of the lost sheep!]]></description>
