My ex was down in the garden tonight.
We have many good talks as we get stoned. I've been smoking many years, and she has been asking me tons of questions about Cannabis. Why I smoke it as often as I do, Why I feel it's important to grow and one day breed Cannabis. Her support has made it possible for me to do this. I have not Smoked anything like a BOG or Rez or Soma strain in my life. The best I can do is turkish hash in the early 80's and some kick ass Hawaiian. She was woundering what made these strains so special. I told her the potency if these plants was superior to anything we have ever smoked. That the Look and feel and taste and smell where all factors in it's breeding. That in order to under stand the difference she needs to smoke some when I finally get some grown. She asked can you see God? I didn't know. Has anyone ever smoked something so heavy the can talk to God or who ever? I've been close to Out of Body on some stuff, but never did go Out. So I know you can zone pretty hard on THC. I have had some mushroom experience where I knew I could if I wanted to talk to God. ( But it better be important! ):p Has any one had a sit down with the All Mighty? Thanks Sin PS she wanted me to ask You Guys!

Well I prefer Mushrooms
Haven't had real good experiance with Acid, I will call it. I know I've never had LSD, so I'm sure thats one reason I don't like it.
Maybe if I had some LSD. Since that most likey wont happen I'll stick to Mushies and Cannabis, perhaps some other Ethnogens more easily attainable. I saw Pixies on AMANITA MUSCARIA, felt like a Pine Tree. Close I guess! Thanks Sin

I have praticed Buddhism my entire life. I aksed this same question to many preachers when I was 6 or 7. I am ow in my 50's
Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism taught me to look within myself to see and understand all things. I believe God functions from within each person in this manner. Buddhism teaches there are ten worlds; Hell at the lowest and Buddhahood or Enlightenment at the highest. One of the ten worlds is Heaven or Rapture. It is here you will find God, I believe. Every time I shave I see God. Remember the bible says, Man is made from the image of Giod and Eve was made from the rib of man. All direct images of God himself as Christains would see him, just as the Buddha reveales himeslf in all life, equally. BTW, The Buddha expounded the Lotus Sutra about 500 BC, the highest teachings of the Budhha's life. Nam Myoho renge-Kyo. VegasBuddha |

I would imagine staring into Gods 'face' would be something like going toe-to-toe the sun, minus the scorching heat. It would be overwhelming, and hard to put into context as a human being. I think this is probably why we don't get to find out what's what until after we die. (at least I hope we find out)
My beliefs are what I'd call anti-exclusionary. I believe all life originates from the same source, and eventually returns to the same source - despite ones individual beliefs during this brief, yet monumental experience we call life. Maybe I am nieve, but I've done a lot of research on 'near death' experiences, because I consider them closest to the actual experience of death, and in turn - life. Their consensus? It's all about us. They realize it's not about choosing a religion, and killing and fighting over this religion and putting down others. Our responsibility is to LIVE, and that's it. Treat others how we would like to be treated. We are all the same, no matter how much we hate to acknowledge that fact. I am the first to acknowledge I don't know shit. Nobody knows shit when it comes to religion/God - and we should see this as a common bond, rather than a reason to seperate us. When people ask me what religion I belong to, I tell them I am part of the human religion. So if you smoke cannabis, can you see God? It definitely can change your perspective, but unless you throw some shrooms in the mix, I doubt you'll see a human incarnate of God sitting in front of you. I guess it depends on how literally you mean 'see god.' Sometimes if I smoke enough, I think my dog is God. One thing is for sure... if I were God, I would be mighty pissed any human would try to outlaw one of my beautiful creations and hinder the spread of happiness that follows the ganja. |

with heavy dosages i can sometimes get the feeling that there is "god" staring right at me, and right at everyone else at the same time.
there is also a feeling of seeing god, but it's just a feeling. god is too big for such a small person to see. a small side effect, it is ignorable. |

Quite an intesting undersatanding of life coming from and returning to one great life. In Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism this is referred to as dependant origination. All life truly does connect as one great life of the Universe.
However, I believe, as most Buddhist do, that life is eternal in nature. This means we will be born over and over again without any direct recollection to each life, other than the chance relationships we appear to stumble through in our life. That sometimes feeling of knowing someone having only met them for the first time. Nichiren Daishonin says, "You have been born over and over, and all the mother's and father's of the workd have been your mother or father in one life or another, and yet you die, but you have never given your life for the Lotus Sutra!" Writtings of Nichiren Daishonin. This Japanese priest born in 1223 expounded The One Great Truth of Life to simply be to embrace the title of the Lotus Sutra; the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha; Myoho Renge Kyo. Nam means to embrace, to say nam myoho renge kyo over and over is to chant or embrace the Wonderful Law of Life itself. That Law is all life, you, me, trees, birds, flowers, air, water, everything that possesse life. Nam means devotion Myo mean Wonderful, Ho means Law Renge means Cause and Effect Kyo means sound or the sound of the teachings Shakyamuni Buddha or Siddartha expounde the One Great Truth of life in his own enlightenment, but he was unable to explain to others how to do the same. Nichiren Daishonin in 1253 expounded the heart of the Lotus Sutra or embrace it's title with your life. Nichiren eventually revealed all life is no more than Nam Myoho Renge Kyo, like the fish and water insepperable. VegasBuddha |
