I crave chip shop food, big fresh cream cakes, I've even gone to taking out a full pack of chocolate digestives with a cup of tea ( dunking them ofcourse ) and I wouldn't mind I'm not even a chocolate lover. But my favourite is a five seeded loaf of bread with chopped pork, butter and lumpy piccalilli sauce.![]()
Oh my the more I think about it I am going to keel over at this rate, I need to sort my diet out.
Thanks for the post it has made me realise where I'm going wrong.
once you divide your body from your soul, from your raw presence, the "I" which I am speaking of when I say "I", it gets a lot easier to resist temptations, and things which would be bad for you, because you can regognize the source of the craving, and choose to solve it in another way, instead of doing the automatic processing thing which would be: Identifying so strongly with your thoughts and feelings than you blindly follow along with them, and just do whatever they tell you to.
In that state, you are a real victim to advertising.
I'm not poking...
But with that kind of "logic," how do you explain the irresistible need that people have for eating psychedelics?
The real deal is, once a body's nutritional optimums have been reached, there are no more cravings, period. Likewise, if a person is truly healthy mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, then there should be no attraction to mushrooms, frogs, and cacti.

Assuming that eating psychedelics isn't 'natural' to begin with. When you look at our history, and for example at the elaborate reading graham hancock gave about it, you see a repetition of ceremonies in wich tribes etc. went to alterted states of consciousness to connect with the spirit world.
Im not stating this is THE way, but history does tell us there are many tribes and cultures before us that clearly tought of it as being a tool to get an 'higher consciousness'.

I heard this theory before.
Mushrooms opened the minds of cave dwelling primates.

i wouldn't say eating mushrooms was a craving, or an irresistable urge, that's how i'd explain it.
at least, not in the sense you mean it, what you just did was mince worlds/definitions together.
But anyway, funny point and a nice try, I get it: Be more responsible.
I wonder how long it will be before the whole ambulance thing fades from peoples memories :p
With mushrooms: the state is what people wish to arrive at, and their curiosity takes them (including myself) to strange places, and consume even stranger mushroom feces/faces...
now that i've ingested them, i know i can actually also think, feel and BREATHE myself to that place, but it takes a LOT more effort. If everyone realized they could take themselves where they wanted to, with enough willpower and imagination, would we externalize anything anymore? Maybe we could go without... food, of any kind. May be all food is an addiction! Not that I really want to put that theory to the test but you know, one could.
Detoxing sure seems to involve Not Eating.
I noticed with the mushrooms that you have a chance to really "ride it out" or to "return early" and stay grounded, annyyywayy, who says psychedelics aren't part of a healthy diet? some soul food, literally

How can I be a victim to advertising dude when I don't even watch t.v or notice advertisements about food when I'm out and about.
I put it down to being a greedy fuck at the moment because I'm spending a lot of time on my Apple Mac and reason 6 software trying to produce some bangin tunes, which is a dream I've always had, getting no excercise, just need to get back the gym with the lads, simple as, I've always been a size medium to large but at the moment I'm a large to extra large.
clothes are gettin to tight and I'm hatin this belly that's appearing ( sound like a woman there

Nuts And a flake to top it off.
