Knowing the Earth

Smoke weed. Listen to it.
Don't tell it where to go, or what to do.
Let it guide your thoughts, let it take your body.

This is the first step.

Observe.
See what is around you. Notice the wind, notice the temprature, notice the clouds, the stars, the grass, the trees.
Begin to learn their names, understand where it is they belong in nature.
Deepin your observation, and begin to see why everything is where it is, and what is is doing, and what other things are doing to it...

Then look at things like humans, virus', and bacteria. Realize that this is the category we fall in.

We are a parasite, we gain from other beings loss.
The earth, the animals, the vegetation. The more it loses, the more we gain.

Then realize where YOU belong.
Are you purely part of the human parasite, or do YOU have a place in the Earth as well...


Once you begin to find your place, you will begin to understand.
And always remember.
Questions are the best answers. Don't EVER seek an end...

Yesterday is not right now, and today is not tomorrow.
Livin for the moment?
Then your time's already borrowed...

fuck yeah !

That's not how it is in my house, Shaggy. They listen to me. I order my little green bitches around, tell them EXACTLY what to do and who's boss. I clip their green little limbs at my discretion, and even tie 'em up when they don't behave. Take control and show them what's up...

Words to live by, Shaggy. I refuse to let myself become a cog in the machine that is the human epedemic. I am one with Mother Earth.

Then it will never share with you, what it truly has for us
Would you tell a captor where your kids lived, even if he promised to let you go? What if he chopped your legs off and set you on fire? Are you giving this guy your children?

And she has a place for everyone who can see theirs

Everyone should at least try to see from this perspective.

I was with one of my best friends and an acquaintance of his. We had all toked on a really fat blunt he rolled. He was laying on his stomach, I on his back, the other guy was laying near my feet. Looking up at the clear, moonlit sky I felt absolutely insignificant. All my problems seemed miniscule in comparison to all that spread before me. In that moment, i felt the earth. The wind, the air, the ground, the trees. The taste of life was dripping off of my swollen tongue.

I said to no on in particular, "Do you feel that? That vibration?"

My friend breathed deeply, " Yeah, I think so," he mumbled.

The other guy sat back on his elbows, "What are you guys talking about?"

Neither of us answered him for a long time. Then, after I had already forgotten what we were speaking of, lost in sensation again, my friend said, " About being, like, a part of something, you know? The world? About being alive, man."

It was the most brilliant thing he had ever said. In that moment I loved him more than I loved anything else. I didn't understand what he was saying, but I felt I knew.

And really from then on, I vowed to remember to take the time to feel the vibrations. To really unleash my energy into the swirl of the earth.

He just wants to pretend he never reported me before by SAYING he is reporting me now and not doing it. I know it was him though.

Because trolls ignore when I bump my shit, or just talk about "WHY ARE YOU DONG THIS!!!". Other people notice though. And it's good discussion.

perhaps one of the best takes on interconnectivity and feeling/knowing our place as virus that leeches off the the one entity (Our Mother Earth) that provides us with sustenance! i, personally have bitten the proverbial "hand that feeds" for far too long. GREAT thread.

Mind Blown- an intense feeling of the mind in which it feels like the mind is turning inside out due to an overwhelming occurence

Thanks Ya'll I'm glad there are people actually trying this

I want to describe Shiva on a deeper level. Shiva and Pan, come together to form the ancient "Pashupati". Shiva, though connected to Pan via Pashupati, is very different from Pan. Shiva is the god of men (or masculinity). He is fairly well known as the Lord of the Dance, as well as the God of Ganja and the "Good Father". This means that Shiva is "present" in the world when people use Marijuana, or when a man raises his child right, or when you lose yourself dancing. The strangest aspect of Shiva is destruction. Shiva is part of the Holy trinity: Creation, Destruction and Preservation. While all these things seem to happen separately in this universe, they are actually one in the same. Atoms are destroyed every day in the sun, so that this planet may have sunlight and energy. Plants are destroyed to sustain human life, and Cannabis is burned to bring us joy and understanding. When an old government is toppled, a new one takes its place. When a forest burns, it is because it was over crowded (when not started by a human). All destruction is a form of creation, just as creation is a form of destruction. Let me explain something to you. ALL hindu gods can be broken down into THREE main gods. Then those three gods are considered a holy trinity, makng them 3 forms of the same thing. So ALL gods in the hindu faith are really just one god. "Brahma".

And if you look back far enough, MOST pagan gods can be broken down into forms of Shiva or Pan. Which come together to actually form the FIRST god we have seen recorded, from the Indus Valley Civilization (the first civilization we know of). That god is Pashupati. So really there is only ONE god and it is Pashupati, and all gods are really just forms of him.

Wilderness: Pan
Ocean: Poseidon
Sun: Ra
Love: Aphodite
War: Ares
Lightning: Zues
Fire: Agni
Cannabis: Shiva

These are "Gods" but they do not sit in the sky granting wishes and telling us if we are worthy or not. They are simply things that we ALL experience in our lives.
The stories of "The Gods" are just stories of how these natural phenomenon react with one another and how they react with nature and how they react with human civilization.
