If people do not experience the physical body as it was made to be experienced how do they expect to truly experience the spiritual, the ecstasy of being alive, of man and woman as co-creators of the finest energy in the universe?
"“Ecstasy is the frequency that heals us and the earth. Ecstasy is most definitely a feminist frequency, it is the prerogative of all women and all people that has been stolen from us in our surrender to the patriarchal view of life. Ecstasy is a tremendous energy, which, when exhibited by female shamans, healers, and other women who link directly to the source of consciousness, has been the cause of fear by patriarchal emissaries. Patriarchy contains within it a massive plot to stamp out ecstasy, but we must reclaim this force without fear."

I liked Willy-Nilly’s answer. It is a candid view of the mind that gravitates to Paternalistic Religion…narrow and concrete…right and wrong….no inbetween….black and white..Double standard…He says, "there is no female and male between spirit beings"…YET…God says he is "Father"…Is a Father not a Male???….Next, I wonder, where is Mother????….in essence,in this Patriarchal system God is not actually a true Patriarch, which is defined, "the male head of a family or tribal line." These family and tribal Fathers could Never have taken care of their families if they did away with the Mother, who was an intricate part of the family.
As you often say, Drifter…all of life is sexual…so what does that mean when the Father has completely tried to "do away with" his partner, the Mother?….I am just wondering about that…
Willy also goes on to indicate that God is completely opposed to our "living in the present" or enjoyment of the Physical. What sort of a cruel father would bring us into a world of Earthy Delights only to smack our hands and demand that we touch nothing there. Willy’s view of life is a tortuous test…little or no enjoyment….most enjoyment of life to be sacrificed for death’s reward…the AfterLife. Willy says that we have the Potential to Become spirit beings….as if he doesn’t know that we already are spirit beings. Now that is one very significant omission about our true nature.
Of course, our body will die. Yet, refusing to allow ourselves the earthly delights just because our body won’t live forever is much like a petulant child. Again, why would any loving Father seek denial. The Goddess in the presence of the God has brought forth our home, the Earth. It is immense in its beauty and its delights. These are gifts from the Deity and meant to be enjoyed, not denied. Enjoyment of such does not mean we Worship the Creation….it means we see the gifts, enjoy them as they are meant to be enjoyed and give appreciation to the Deity for the gifts given. How would you feel if you prepared for me a lovely meal….and I refused to look at it or to eat it, even when I am hungry, because I think it is Sinful. We are meant to enjoy our gifts….and that is not sin.
I would tell Willy that life is not black and white….it is full of beautiful color that blends into itself. Life is holistic; physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual….and they are all blended together, NOT to be Dissected. Dissection is what is done to one who is dead…or who will soon be so…Again, Willy sees a life that is much bereft of Life. In Willy’s views, he cannot understand that the Ecstasy of which you speak is something that flows between the physical and the spiritual. He sees the two as separate and that it is sinful to enjoy the physical as if one is wallowing in the mud, grabbing all the pleasure available, in a manner that is really base and immoral. He doesn’t have a clue that it is the actual union of the male and female Deity within us that can occur and this is sacredly spiritual and physically Healing.
Because we touch the delights does not mean that we hold on to them and cling to them as if nothing else matters…And when we touch these delights, in no way does that relegate us to being perverse or sinners. Willy does not see that we can enjoy the gifts of the Deity in a very sacred manner. There are many sins in this world….but not so these things of which you speak.
“Ecstasy is the frequency that heals us and the earth. Ecstasy is most definitely a feminist frequency, it is the prerogative of all women and all people that has been stolen from us in our surrender to the patriarchal view of life. Ecstasy is a tremendous energy, which, when exhibited by female shamans, healers, and other women who link directly to the source of consciousness, has been the cause of fear by patriarchal emissaries. Patriarchy contains within it a massive plot to stamp out ecstasy, but we must reclaim this force without fear. Yoga gives us some tools to do this. Therefore, it is, at its truth, a feminist ally… Be aware not to fall into the patriarchal limitations that surround some schools of thought within yoga. In order to stay free of this, once a woman has studied and is able to monitor the effects of her practice, she should define her own yoga, perhaps under sincere guidance at first, which will allow her to liberate herself as soon as possible."
I think you would agree that those Patriarchal Boys were pretty thorough in their campaign to eradicate the Goddess. Ahhh….still she lives within us and continues to make her presence known. When we seek her, she is ever ready to embrace our lives with her being. We can feel the energy, sometimes more than others. The path to Ecstasy is not always so readily found. I agree with you that sincere guidance is greatly helpful and deeply appreciated. I truly favor Liberation, as it is wearying to stumble in darkness. Better to Live in the Light…..and to let my golden light shine.
Regarding you actual question " Will man and woman come to know and allow the Feminine to heal and raise consciousness to ecstatic heights." As individuals, we cannot know it and allow it for the world. In such matters, often we can only speak for ourselves. The "knowing" and "allowing" starts within our self on an individual basis. It starts with the individual and grows out from there. The rise of consciousness to Ecstasy comes with the completion of the Circle when man and woman embrace in Sacred Love. I am a Healer and seek to raise my consciousness.
PS…..Patriarchal Joke of the Day…..
Why did the Patriarch seek to change the role of Woman?……………He wanted her to "HEEL"….rather than Heal…..
Hello, okay this is not some troll question or something I could easily figure out by myself, this is my life, and I really need others opinions on this. First I want to say that I really do not want lectures or judgements, just intelligent advice and what you think of this. My fiancee and I have been together for a little over a year now and I am deeply in love with him. We’ve been through so much, living together, a pregnancy termination due to health reasons…. and mind expansion. When I first met him, I was under the impression that ALL drugs are bad and that they can in no way shape or form improve upon your life, but I was proven wrong. I myself have tried a few, I’d rather not go into detail, but I have. By this I do not mean meth or cocain… just psychedelics for the most part, and they have made me realizethings about myself I never wanted to see before; I had severe childhood trauma that these things allowed me to cope and deal with and get over all my fears and anxieties. The problem is that my fiancee is driven by so much curiosity that I am worried about him. I believe that true freedom is being in control of your own body and mind, and this includes having the right to put whatever you want into your body; he wants to expand his consciousness and I respect that. But when the topic of LSD first came up a year ago, it scared me so bad. Why? I had childhood schizophrenia, about 5% of children have this, but I came to "grow out of it" almost, but it isn’t something that just goes away. I’m nineteen years old and I’m still scared of the dark… sad huh? And I still have highly developed paranoias of things like something being in the shower with me due to a horrible night terror with auditory and visual hallucinations I had as a child. This does not affect my life in any way, in fact I am a very rational open minded person, but my fear was that doing acid might bring the schizophrenia back, and it took years of psychiatric counciling to get it to the point where it’s almost nonexistant. I did acid anyway with him and it was a wonderful beautiful trip and it helped a lot, but at the same time there were points where I felt like I was losing control and my mind was turning on me like it did when I was a child. I feel like I have to come to terms with my own mind before I experiment with psychedelics because they are very ppowerful and I respect them and I don’t want them to harm me, and with my mind they very well could if I’m not careful. But my fiancee has done acid, mushrooms, ecstasy, and marijuana (not really a big deal though), but now he is planning on trying peyote, DMT, Ketamine, 2bc, and PCP within the next year JUST ONCE he says. My take on this is if you are trying to expand your mind then why is it healthy to set out to do as many possible psychedelics as you can without even understanding one of them. I said he should do acid, for example, a few more times and come to terms with it before you just jump the gun to the next "coolest" thing you hear about. The thing is I WON’T do all of these with him, I’m trying to keep the amount of substances I try to a minimum, as to truley UNDERSTAND just a few as opposed to just TRYING a million ONCE! He says I am not "understanding" him because I feel he is going a little crazy with this; I just feel he should take the time to appreciate just a few at first, not just sample the whole field, and I feel like we’re drifting apart because of this. FORGIVE ME if I don’t want to do DMT for example right now… these things can make you crazy if you don’t respect them… am I right? Shamans respected them for ages and they are more advanced than any of us, but the Shamans didn’t just taste every psychedelic they possibly could for shits and giggles… so why is he not understanding my point? And am I correct in worrying? If I am WAY OFF than please tell me. I feel like I am not being understanding enough… his point is you only live once, but my point is you should respect these things and understand the potential of EACH and EVERY one… don’t just sample the whole menu once… What do you think?
These other two answers here are absolutely spot on. I only want to comment on a few other things, namely your use of these drugs in relation to your childhood schizophrenia. It is true that hallucinogens are capable of bringing out underlying mental issues. You seem to be fairly well informed and I can’t tell you how much I respect that. I think you should watch yourself closely. It’s not unusual for you to feel like your loosing control of your mind when you trip, when I trip I am either very silent or I freak my shit and act like I’m off my noggin. I’m silent only when I’m in slightly uncomfortable situations, I just can’t find words. But most of the time by far I act like a damn loony, I talk deeply and think deeply, but when I’m not I say ridiculous things that make even me think I’m insane.
Oddly enough, I’m close to your age and I still have experiences where I get a disturbing image stuck in my head and I feel like it’s going to get me when I turn the lights out. But I’m fairly sure I didn’t have schizophrenia when I was a kid so… I don’t know but I can relate to what your saying is my point. Watch yourself closely, but don’t worry too much because it could be just you psyching yourself out. I wouldn’t suggest that YOU do DMT, because it is really intense and more likely to bring out any mental problems.
But yes, I used to be that type of person who just wanted to do everything AT LEAST once. But I chilled out after a while and I’m glad I did because if I’d kept going it would’ve led me to do more serious drugs (like PCP and ketamine) that could’ve really harmed me. Try to get your boy to focus more on the basic hallucinogens and weed. For the most part they’re harmless, even mescaline and DMT. You can enjoy yourself using just a few different things, and I don’t think you’d get bored of hallucinogens, if you do just up the dose and you’ll go to a whole other world of tripping.
Hope this helps, good luck to you. Peace.

Perhaps the most famous of Terence McKenna’s theories and observations is his explanation for the origin of modern human consciousness and culture. McKenna theorized that as the North African jungles receded, near the end of the most recent ice age, giving way to savannas and grasslands, a branch of our tree-dwelling primate ancestors left the forest canopy and began to live in the open areas outside of the forest. There they experimented with new varieties of foods as they adapted, physically and mentally, to their new environment.
Among the new food items found in this new environment were psilocybin-containing mushrooms growing near the dung of ungulate herds that occupied the savannas and grasslands at that time. McKenna, referencing the research of Roland L. Fisher, Ph.D. (College of Optometry and Departments of Psychiatry and Pharmacology, College of Medicine, The Ohio State University)[14] [15] [16] [17], claimed that enhancement of visual acuity was an effect of psilocybin at low doses, and supposed that this would have conferred an adaptive advantage. He also argued that the effects of slightly larger doses, including sexual arousal (not reported as a typical effect in scientific studies[citation needed]) — and in still larger doses, ecstatic hallucinations and glossolalia — gave selective evolutionary advantages to members of those tribes who partook of it. There were many changes caused by the introduction of this psychoactive mushroom to the primate diet. McKenna hypothesizes, for instance, that synesthesia (the blurring of boundaries between the senses) caused by psilocybin led to the development of spoken language: the ability to form pictures in another person’s mind through the use of vocal sounds.
About 12,000 years ago, further climate changes removed psilocybin-containing mushrooms from the human diet. McKenna argued that this event resulted in a new set of profound changes in our species as we reverted to the previous brutal primate social structures that had been modified and/or repressed by frequent consumption of psilocybin.
McKenna did not attempt to defend his hypotheses through rigorous scientific evidence; he consciously self-identified as a type of shaman, or ethnobotanist. McKenna and his followers view his theories as speculation that is at a minimum scientifically feasible and arguably gifted by special knowledge due to psychedelic plants. His hypothesis that psilocybin induced a phase change in human evolution is necessarily based on a great deal of speculation that interpolates between the few fragmentary facts we know about hominid and early human development, but he argued that the ability to metabolize any dietary component could, in principle, confer a selective advantage. Many find this explanation implausible, as it suggests a Lamarckian interpretation of evolution wherein acquired secondary characteristics (e.g. an adaptave advantage resulting from consuming a hallucinogen) are assumed to be propagated genetically. However, McKenna also suggests that the cultural pattern of the mushroom-using primates is transformed through this process as well (great-horned-mushroom-goddess religion). In this light, it is arguable that culture and language would have been the medium of transference, rather than genetics. An article in New Scientist July 2008 now suggests Mckenna is closer to the mark than previously thought: "characteristics acquired during an individuals’ lifetime can be passed on to their offspring. Over the past decade it has become increasingly clear that environmental factors such as diet or stress, can have biological consequences that are transmitted to offspring without a single change to the gene sequences taking place.
One can counter-argue that the ability to metabolize any dietary component survives because those who had that ability survived – and the other did not. No Lamarckian interpretation required. No need to speak of transfer of acquired abilities through genetics.
The folks taking the Lamarckian path still need to understand that the alternative interpretation exists – that the ones who were genetically more (better?) adapted to the results of the environmental changes through genetic characteristics were the ones who survived. Thus passing along that characteristic to their offspring.
Interesting line of thought, though. Thanks for mentioning it.

The nature of existence as it pertains to living beings
Consciousness is the being in the flesh that sees through the eyes hears etc There is a being that experiences the things the body reports . It is that being which is consciousness. That being is eternal and has always existed througout space time and the inter dimensional planes that for now I call the "probability fields" (Einstein said all things that can happen must happen my suggestion is that they are all occurring at once
Consciousness is both shared and individual — parts impact the whole — the whole is made up of parts — the act of thought creates realities and defines the world around us as such we are co creators to the reality we share When Jesus said whatsoever you do unto the least of these you do unto me — What he meant applied to all beings not just him — There is absolutely nothing you can do to yourself or others that will not impact the whole — The whole must also impact you
Ego is the unconscious thoughts and the recurrent internal dialogue in all beings — it is no more than a record playing of thoughts we have had and adopted as our own given to us by others — the ego is not conscious the being behind the mask of ego is The being experience the ego recites
The ego or the internal record player has become more and prevalent in our society drowning out the self which is the being experiencing life. This is what I believe Charlie Chaplain meant when he said We think to much and feel to little
As such we have created and maintained the devil who is in our own heads and it speaks constantly because we as peoples have forgotten and externalized the evils which we create via the unconscious ego
____________
As an aside women often sum up the fights men get into as a who has the biggest competition —- the unconscious ego or the mask at work.
—————–
As such I view the majority of the population to be asleep or completely uncontentious most of the time — the walking zombie on his way to work with no clue how he got there etc
The nature of reality
As our science is catching up to the ancient tribesmen and shaman we are learning that sub atomic particles have no location except and until they are observed — the act of observation gives them not only a location but a set of qualities which govern their behavior And surprise when observed the particles begin to behave in a manner consistent with our expectations
Space and time are an illusion created in order for the infinite to contemplate the finite The self must be veiled to a degree in order to forget the infinite nature of the being currently in the body –The body is made up of sub atomic particles – creating a fractal holographic illusion of being solid as does all matter — It will still hurt if you punch a wall of course – the illusion is very complete in its presentation
With no location the consciousness of man is in multiple places all at once — that is the self is — or the being – The ego only exists in the past repeating a line or the future in anticipation of an event — the self exists in the NOW – the ego in an illusion of a time space that does not exist except as a concept – The ego must have the self for its existence – the self does not need the ego to exist – the self must create the abstract concepts of the past and future for the ego to have any existence at all
The devil or the ego or the mask or the taped loop of thoughts that goes on in you’re head — has taken over — it has drowned out the self and has run amuck with pi**ing matches anticipations and versions of the past played over and over again
The self forms a collective consciousness the ego a collective unconsciousness
The collective unconsciousness — is running the globe seeking power worried about everything and in desperate hate — the mine is bigger than yours is on an international scale
————————–
The self which is the being expierencing the life around you exists in all spaces and in all times in what we call "NOW" — all things all times infinite and in all possibilities – That is god – us the indefinable being
The self — equals god – the consciousness
The devil equals the unconscious ego which has no consciousness but a lot to say for itself

Not not that you are an illusion — matter space and time — You that being in their -not an illusion but god — the consciousness of god which creates all things — all things are created by US – the things we create are the illusion(s)
NO, not a nutter just sane awake and observing the obvious. Few can put it into words. The only place that you lost me was with the heavy metal Jesus.
This is how I explain it.
This is more easily understandable if one considers the actual structure of an atom and the scale and placement of its components. If one takes into account the fact that the neutrons and protons form a dense cluster at the center of the atom and that the electrons orbit in such a way that huge spaces exist between them and the nucleus it becomes clear that the atoms that make up seemingly solid objects are made up of 99+ percent empty space at any given moment.
This alone does not seem too important until you add the idea that the atoms that make up many seemingly solid objects are more of a loose conglomeration that share a similar attraction but never really touch each other.
At first glance this does not really seem relevant, but closer analysis reveals that this adds a tremendous amount of empty space to solid objects that are already made up of atoms that could be thought of as 99 percent space. When so-called solid objects are seen in this light it becomes apparent that may not be the seemingly solid objects they appear to us to be.
We ourselves are not exceptions to this phenomenon.
These seemingly solid objects are more like ghostly images that we interpret as solid objects based on our perceptual conclusions.
From this one could conclude that Perception is some sort of a trick that helps us to take these ghostly images and turns them into a world we can associate and interact with. This clever device seems to be a creation of our intellect that enables us to interact with each other in what appears to be a three dimensional reality.
I want to add that this is based on my own personal way of looking at the situation and was never intended to be a physics lesson.

The nature of existence as it pertains to living beings
Consciousness is the being in the flesh that sees through the eyes hears etc There is a being that experiences the things the body reports . It is that being which is consciousness. That being is eternal and has always existed througout space time and the inter dimensional planes that for now I call the "probability fields" (Einstein said all things that can happen must happen my suggestion is that they are all occurring at once
Consciousness is both shared and individual — parts impact the whole — the whole is made up of parts — the act of thought creates realities and defines the world around us as such we are co creators to the reality we share When Jesus said whatsoever you do unto the least of these you do unto me — What he meant applied to all beings not just him — There is absolutely nothing you can do to yourself or others that will not impact the whole — The whole must also impact you
Ego is the unconscious thoughts and the recurrent internal dialogue in all beings — it is no more than a record playing of thoughts we have had and adopted as our own given to us by others — the ego is not conscious the being behind the mask of ego is The being experience the ego recites
The ego or the internal record player has become more and prevalent in our society drowning out the self which is the being experiencing life. This is what I believe Charlie Chaplain meant when he said We think to much and feel to little
As such we have created and maintained the devil who is in our own heads and it speaks constantly because we as peoples have forgotten and externalized the evils which we create via the unconscious ego
____________
As an aside women often sum up the fights men get into as a who has the biggest competition —- the unconscious ego or the mask at work.
—————–
As such I view the majority of the population to be asleep or completely uncontentious most of the time — the walking zombie on his way to work with no clue how he got there etc
The nature of reality
As our science is catching up to the ancient tribesmen and shaman we are learning that sub atomic particles have no location except and until they are observed — the act of observation gives them not only a location but a set of qualities which govern their behavior And surprise when observed the particles begin to behave in a manner consistent with our expectations
Space and time are an illusion created in order for the infinite to contemplate the finite The self must be veiled to a degree in order to forget the infinite nature of the being currently in the body –The body is made up of sub atomic particles – creating a fractal holographic illusion of being solid as does all matter — It will still hurt if you punch a wall of course – the illusion is very complete in its presentation
With no location the consciousness of man is in multiple places all at once — that is the self is — or the being – The ego only exists in the past repeating a line or the future in anticipation of an event — the self exists in the NOW – the ego in an illusion of a time space that does not exist except as a concept – The ego must have the self for its existence – the self does not need the ego to exist – the self must create the abstract concepts of the past and future for the ego to have any existence at all
The devil or the ego or the mask or the taped loop of thoughts that goes on in you’re head — has taken over — it has drowned out the self and has run amuck with pi**ing matches anticipations and versions of the past played over and over again
The self forms a collective consciousness the ego a collective unconsciousness
The collective unconsciousness — is running the globe seeking power worried about everything and in desperate hate — the mine is bigger than yours is on an international scale
————————–
The self which is the being expierencing the life around you exists in all spaces and in all times in what we call "NOW" — all things all times infinite and in all possibilities – That is god – us the indefinable being
The self — equals god – the consciousness
The devil equals the unconscious ego which has no consciousness but a lot to say for itself
