Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.
I mean, I can’t disagree with the comparison OR be insulted by it!
I don’t think about us a shared consciousness, or anything else spiritual that we can’t really verify. But we are indeed ancient star remnants experiencing consciousness, kind of like our computers are rocks that can do math. :)
Bill Hicks
I got the reference, that’s why I couldn’t be insulted!
I was just clarifying the differences I see between the two statements.
