So maybe I am just yet to have the expereince that alters this thought but I keep thinking one thing when I read about encounters with beings/archetypes.
It comes from the lyrics of the TOOL song Pushit. The entire song could speak to some experiences, but one line says a lot... "What are you but my reflection."
My personal view of god is the Universe, is Everything, is Me, is You, is All. So I always wonder when encountering beings why put ourselves down? Why let go of your ability to understand because of a language difference. The thing about Psychedelics is they "loosen the lines" Fall into line with the creature be them be there "thoughts" and understand. As much as you have the power to be them you have the power to be you. Why choose fear when you can choose to see yourself in the mirror, expereince beauty even in fierce forms and love. Perspective is the most powerful word/thought.

Maybe a little more analysis of the song would help...I don't know if you thoughts are generated/ inspired by all of Pushit or just that one line (I'm a big Tool fan)

You know it seems like every generation has their songs which inspire them.
For me during the Viet Nam era it was of course the Beatles and CSNY with Four Dead in OHIO,Jefferson Airplane,etc..Lotta good soul music came from that era.I'm sure just like Hemp says-it's all musical mathematics synchronous with worldly events.:eek:
