how deep can you think?

[royCE]

since i usually smoke weed (by this i ment, on a usual occasion, when i smoke weed), i find my self thinking of the strangest things, something that regularly would never cross my mind...questions that have no answers...and sometimes even answers that i dont know how to make a question for...its so weird but hear me out...

did you ever go into such deep thinking that you practically zoom out to everything around you and then suddenly come to your senses and wonder wtf just happened and why do you not understand what a person is talkin about, in my case my girlfriend...

in all seriousness, i would sometimes zoom out so deeply that even if i know the beggining of a conversation with someone, by the time they ended it, i would have no clue what they talked about...i would just hear the last bit of words, but no way can i pull the whole story together...my ears just didnt hear it...

im asking this because if im alone, in my room or driving (dangerous i know) i would start thinking so vividly, that i can seriously put my self in the air...and fly over any city and look at it from the air and picture how it would look like...

i know its stupid but...i guess because of my mind remembering random pictures shot from the air...moving environment as im driving, the air from open windows in the car...i can connect it all together and really have the experience of flying...

i know it sounds childish...but to be able to have such an experience, so strong, so exhilarating is just beyond anything i can explain...

i guess i dont know what a true state of meditation is and how deep certain budhists and monks can go, but im sure it has to do with something like that...maybe not in the same form, but still, tapping that deep into your mind sounds impossible and lame for someone who cant do it...

yea youl laugh, i dont care lol, i laugh at my self really, but oh well...i thought i share and ask a question if you had any deep thinking experiences before?

i know il get alot of "funny" responses but maybe someone out there knows where im coming from >.>

also, i can sometimes go into the eyes of another person, and as im walkin beside them, if im focused enough, i can completely change my point of view to theirs...this means i can see my self walking beside them...or myself...if that makes any sense...and i can see things from different angles...its so fuckin weird...

anyway, lol, you guys got any weird shit to share in this sense?

lmfao, typical stoner bullshit.

But if you're talking about serious deep thinking, like Hegel, Socrates, Plato, etc, then yes. Without weed. Self-created reality.

Everything you have ever "believed" you've known, and everything you "believe" you currently know, and everything you "believe" you will know are just that, beliefs. Beliefs are totally subjective. Therefor everything you know IS subjective.

You seem to be scratching at the surface of real philosophical thought, but then again so do many other potheads.

I recommend researching/studying philosophy (NOT STONED). You will probably enjoy it.

nah man, i rarely smoke, its just that when i actually do smoke, i realize shit i think of while being sober...

its kinda like a link...

but yea, i been looking into that for a while now, its so interesting...i stumbled upon quantum physics as well...the whole alternative reality and such...

all those things put together at 1 time can create insane things in my head...its like hallucinations while your in control...your hallucinating but controlling the outcomes and what is happening

Sounds like you made a post of how you feel when you're high. LOL

[royCE]

nah i was helping my dad dig up the front yard to put pavement in yesterday while he was at work, and as im holding the shovel, i look up in the tree high up and for a second, i saw my self on top of it, looking down at me while starring up at the tree...it was the weirdest thing...just thought of that moment and it reminded me of all the other ones so i made a thread about it lol

[PH]

typical stoner bullshit

something tells me that's the only direction that this thread can go from here (especially once n0ah and gran find it, and their drug-addled monologues are about as deep as an average arkansas family's gene pool).

I smoked a few times, maybe 5, and I've come up with the wildest idea for the meaning of life, and what happens when you die. Even to this day (7 years later), I still believe it, and have even perfected it. I haven't smoked since that episode 7 years ago, as I thought I would just keep thinking weirder and weirder thoughts.

So I don't think you're crazy, as I do understand what you're saying. But I hope you do realize that the ideas you are working on were all jump-started while you were in a really fucked up frame of mind. If you are intellectual, try honing in all of what you are thinking without being stoned. Just stay clean for a while and try to perfect what you are thinking about by writing it down. Don't rely on "getting high" to be creative/smart.

Drugs and Alcohol alter your perception of reality, they don't enhance it or make it 'deeper.'

well... altering your perception of reality in many ways CAN enhance that reality... if you are tripping balls and notice a bunch of colors in things... well when you are sober one day you might just appreciate the various colors of the sky, or the deep blue in someones eyes, or whatever... things like that... In many ways it can make you appreciate things you normally overlook and take for granted in everyday life

vote : change thread title to - How high can you get?

most druggies that I know that do substantial amounts of drugs (not talking smoking a blunt every now and then) don't appreciate things they normally overlook and take for granted when sober
