The Meaning of "LIFE"

**Dkamp** · 09-07-2011 08:40 AM

My Philosophical views about “life”

To begin, I’d like to say life is well misunderstood, and there are several versions or types of life. Life can be living as a human being, plant, animal, or even living in the universe as a whole. From my knowledge, it seems as if life never ends, but instead shifts dimensions. Everything is a state of vibration, according to some physicists, and I totally agree with this theory. Many religions talk about 10 dimensions, but I have only experienced five of them: Earth, Heaven, Hell, Dream plane, and the Void.

Life here on earth in my opinion is “living hell.” Being a human being is fun and all, but you can only experience this world with your five senses, sight, hearing, taste, smell, and feeling. Also, human beings have several emotions: happy, sad, depressed, excited, bored, ecstatic, and giddiness, and many more. Living here on earth as a human being has many benefits, as well as many draw backs. Being human, you have many wants and needs, and it can become quite a hassle. While you are here on earth, you can have fun and be happy, yes, but you can also feel depressed and lonely. I must say being lonely is the worst emotion in this universe.

Secondly, Heaven is a place filled with pure ecstasy and love. With my experiences through meditation, and psychedelics, I came to realize that I have had many experiences with heaven. Heaven isn’t a second life living as a human being with all your buddies; instead it is a feeling as if you consist of everything in the universe. You feel this universe without your human senses, and you feel it with all senses, instead of your human senses. You are engulfed by white light, and only see white light. Your body does not exist, but you exist as everything, for example, you feel like you are “one with everything”. In this state, you feel pure joy, and love, your vibrations are so fast, that you feel as if you are a solid. I believe that the higher the vibration, the closer you are to heaven, but the lower the vibration, the closer you are to hell.

Getting to my next point, Hell is a miserable place. I experienced Hell while on a DXM trip, and this is what happened. I’m laying on my couch, blindfolded, listening to soothing ambient music, trying to relax myself and trying to forget about my five senses to experience the universe with all senses, or put in simple terms, meditating. While laying there for 15 min, vibrations in my body are speeding up. My legs are feeling lighter, and I have a sense that I’m leaving my body, and taking my “inner-self” or my energy outa my body. More, and more, my vibrations are speeding up, than all of a sudden SNAP! I feel as if I have left my body, and I feel as if I consist of vibrations that expand into this vast infinite corners of the universe. I feel that I only consist of vibrations, and have a feeling as if I am “one with everything”, or as the hippies put it, “one love.” Words cannot describe this feeling of pure love, and ecstasy. I feel that when you are out of your body, emotions are enhanced tremendously!! By millions. For example, lets say you are in love with somebody, and when they smile, you get that feeling of love and you can’t do anything but smile. But when you are in heaven, this is amplified by a million. Getting back to my point about hell, I was enjoying my “trip” in heaven, but it ended in near seconds. I was only able to get a glimpse of heaven, but things get way worse. I feel as if my vibrations are slowing down. Slower, and slower I feel as if my vibrations, or “energy” are coming to a complete stop. I was right; I was being brought to hell. I arrived in “hell”, and I must say, it’s not what people say it is at all. You do not “burn” in hell, but instead you suffer with only loneliness, and emptyness. Your vibrations are so slow, that you feel no love, and just pure loneliness. For example, you know that feeling when your stomach drops, when you go down a hill. Well amplify that feeling by 1000, and that feeling never ends. It is the worst feeling in the world, pure emptiness, in the absence of loving energy and just filled with “negative” energy. This feeling only lasted a few seconds, until I was saved by some mystical light energy, that I believe was an angel or God.

This gets to my point about the “void.” Usually when I meditate I feel as if I leave my body, and I always enter this dark “void.” This void is slower in vibrations, but is not at a constant stand still like in hell. In this void, it is just you and your thoughts. I believe it is between heaven and hell, or as the bible puts it, “limbo.” You are stuck in this void, to think of your past experiences. While in this void emotions are enhanced, so if you are a negative person, you suffer with that “negative” feeling, but if you are a positive person, you feel more happiness and ecstasy. I believe the void is for spirits of people who are not yet ready to enter heaven, but rather suffer for a little while, until they are ready to enter this world of pure happiness and love.

This brings me to my next point, you create your own future. If you are a positive person, when you die, you are surrounded by positive energy, aka heaven. If you were a negative person, you are surrounded by negative energy and the feeling of emptiness. That is exactly it, heaven is the feeling of pure ecstasy, and hell is the feeling of pure emptiness. Simple as that.

Many religions believe in rein-carnation, and I do to. I feel that you are put on this earth to learn from your mistakes, and to allow yourself to become a more loving, and positive person. If you were good in your past life, you’ll return without many hardships, whether it’s a disability, or just growing up with abusive parents. Life here on earth is only a blink in universal time. Time does not exist in heaven or in hell, it is infinite. I believe the people on earth that are very positive are the ones who have spiritually advanced themselves that they return upon their wish. They leave heaven and return back to earth once again, to aid others in their journey. These people are in my mind, guardian angels, they are here on earth to help you out, and make sure you are not turning towards evil. These angels can be anybody in your life, a stranger, best friend, family member, or even your teacher, you just never know, but they know you, and are always willing to help. In my life, I feel as if my grandma is my guardian angel, you know why? Because when I am around her, her aura is intense, it radiates positive energy unlike any other person I have met. All of her words are filled with meaningful advice, and positive thoughts. Just look at the little things, and you’ll start to realize that in this world here on earth, is filled with loving people and energy; you just got to find it.

Also, I believe that everything happens for a reason, and your future is pre-determined. Yes, you still have free will, but it is limited. Lets say the universe wants you back in heaven, you will die at a certain point in your life, and you cannot avoid it. All the people you meet, you meet for a reason, whether to help you out in some of your struggles, to have fun, or even to learn off their mistakes. Everything is meant to be. Another reason why I believe everything is pre-determined, is because I dream a lot. Every night I remember several dreams, and dreams allow you to tap into your subconscious. Your subconscious is your “inner-self” that is trying to tell you advice through your dreams, through symbols. Lets say you have a very vivid dream, and remember it. A week or two passes, and you realize, holy shit, I’ve dreamt this before. You know why?? Because in your dream, you tapped into this universal path and got a glimpse of the future. De ja vu does exist, but many people do not experience it. Dreams are very special, they are not for fun, but are really just there for your subconscious mind to tell you advice. Also, there is a method of “lucid dreaming”, aka controlling your dreams. I am very experienced with lucid dreaming. To enter a dream, and live in this dream plane this is what you have to do. Lay down mid day, get a blindfold, and just relax. Just breath in, and breath out. Focus on the top of your breath, and at the bottom of your breath. Try to forget about your day, and just keep thinking about your breaths. Sooner or later, you will feel lighter, and lighter. Then when you are in a deeper meditative state, you will feel as if you consist of vibrations. Good, at this point you are close to leaving your body, just keep with it. You may here hypnogogic hallucinations (white noise, static, voices) it is just your mind playing tricks on you. Sooner or later, you will hear a “SNAP” you have successfully entered the “void.” In this void, you are surrounded by darkness. I believe this void is your inner mind. At this point whatever you think appears. Thoughts become reality in your dreams, just think and it happens. After that it should be easy as cake, just keep reminding yourself you are in a dream, and you will be able to anything you wish. Sooner or later a dream will end, but to prolong it, rub your hands, spin in circles, or just try to keep your head inside your dream. Eventually you will fade out, enter the void, and back into your body again. If you don’t believe me when I say entering your body again, listen, if you ever had that feeling as if you were falling when you woke up, that is you entering your body again. AHA told yah.

Another thought, I believe that everything has an “aura” or an energy field that surrounds that object or person. I bet you know exactly know what I’m talking about, for example, when you meet a new person, you feel as if they are radiating positive energy, and are just happy to be there to enjoy their presence. On the other hand, negative people have more negative auras, and tend to drain you out. All people are able to sense these auras, whether it’s seeing it, feeling it, or just knowing. Myself, I tend to feel energy, I am still training my eyes to see auras, but I am unable to see weaker, and more negative auras. The trick is to stare past a person, and that faint outline that surrounds them is their aura. Some people are natural healers, they tend to re-boot these auras and fill in energy when needed. You may think that these “healers” are phonies, but in actuality, they exist.

In conclusion, start thinking more positive, and stay away from negative feelings or thoughts, because they will haunt you in the future. I must say, Heaven is wonderful, and a million times better here on earth, and Hell is such a miserable place, no wonder many religions try to tell you to become a more positive person. To learn about the real “realities” of this universe, start meditating, you might get a glimpse of the “void”, “heaven”, or even “hell.” Or you can go the easy route and take Shrooms, LSD, DXM, or DMT. All in all, the universe is a fascinating place, you just have to treat it right so it can treat you right in return.

Very well said! Namaste.

wonderfull article

thanx for sharing

you must have heard of superstring theory,it clearly says there exists 10 dimensions and yes ancients men figure out long before.

**CrimpJiggler** · 09-15-2011 03:38 PM

We all have different pieces of the puzzle. Haven't read you're full post (barely even started reading it yet) but I feel the need to share my pieces of the puzzle, some of which I believe refute your theory of the big picture. By combining our pieces we'll both end up with a more accurate image and be closer to the true big picture.

Firstly in my experience there aren't a finite number of emotions, instead there is a vast plethora of them, some of which are alien (to you at your present time) and can only be experienced under specific conditions. An example of this is when you hear a song that triggers emotions from when you were a child, some of these emotions feel very bizarre and you seem to be incapable of triggering them under ordinary conditions with your present mindset.

Secondly in my experience there aren't a finite number of "dimensions", instead there are filters placed on total consciousness. Depending on what filters are imposed on our consciousness (our being the keyword there), our subjective realities can manifest in an vast number of ways. For example when I ingest salvia divinorum I find myself in another world and your theory of 5 dimensions (earth, heaven, hell, dreamplane and the void) doesn't apply. Unless its the void as I have no idea what you mean by that. In this particular reality (I have only broke through on salvia 3 times but found myself in the same reality each time) I find that I'm stripped of any concept of self, all I am there is consciousness. I'm aware that my experiences are very different to what some people describe when they talk about their salvia experiences. Each time I have broken through on salvia I ended up in a 2 dimensional world. It was horribly confined, so confined I couldn't stay there so I spent what seemed like weeks trying to escape it and in the end I remember that what set me free was something that was right under my nose the whole time but was the last thing I could think to try. I think it had something to do with just commanding the 2D reality to set me free, similar to the way I command my arm to move, it was the last thing I thought of trying because I had the idea the this 2D reality was something external and separate from me as opposed to actually being part of me.

As for dreams, yeah they can be considered another dimension but where does sleep paralysis fit into this? Is it in between the earth and dream dimension? What about when you are so sleep deprived that you start dreaming while you're still awake? Is that a special case of inhabiting 2 dimensions at once? I've experienced both those states, thankfully its only the former that I experience regularly because the latter was hands down, the most unnerving experience of my life. Psychedelics such as mushrooms and LSD give insight into the filters. These substances clearly dissolve some of these filters. You experience everything you would ordinarily experience while sober but more. I have never done high doses of DXM so have no idea what kinda experiences it enables one to have and thus cannot relate to your experience of hell. I have experienced some intense agony during bad trips on mushrooms. Being trapped in the 2nd dimension on salvia wasn't pleasant but since I was stripped of a sense of self, it wasn't very negative either, it just was and it wasn't acceptable so I strived to move to better mindspace (even though I wasn't sure it existed) and when my efforts paid off, I was reawoken to the 3rd dimension which was a fairly ecstatic experience. I believe the most negative experience I have had was after staying up far too long on amphetamines and experienced psychosis. There was no pain here, just terror/dread. I had this sense of impending doom and suffered greatly. Something interesting that I only just realized now is that all those subjective hells I experienced had the same underlying cause. The cause was the illusion that I am separate from my environment. I believe that this particular illusion causes a great deal of suffering in people all over the world. Anyhow I'll read the rest of your thread before saying more.

EDIT: Holy shit I've had a bit of a personal revelation here and reading your thread confirmed it. I had never made the connection before between heaven/hell and the idea of being at one/separate from the universe. Looking back on my most hellish experiences, I can see that they were all caused by the belief that I'm separate from the rest of the universe and conversely, during all my ecstatic experiences, I had the idea that I was interconnected to and at one with the universe and everything in it. My god this extends into everything. This is a pretty enlightening thread you started here. Exactly what I said before, we all have pieces of the puzzle, when we start sharing our pieces, we end up with a more complete big picture. I have sleep paralysis and lucid dreams every night and my experiences with these states give me the idea that you're theory about "the void" and the different modes of reality is incorrect. I think you're being too hasty to form a big picture. Remember you don't have all the pieces of the puzzle so the picture formed with the pieces you have thus far may be very different to the picture that would be formed if you had them all. You say that dreams are meaningful but hypnagogic hallucinations are just your mind playing tricks on you. I disagree. Hypnagogic hallucinations can teach you things about reality similar to the way dreams can. I believe they are related to dreaming. They are still a huge mystery to me though, I don't really know what to make of them. I've observed how dreams begin. It is intricately related to logic. In my experience logic is intricately related to reality itself and that it is kind of like a programming language used to program ones consciousness filters. While in sleep paralysis, although you may have the impression that your logic remains the same as your everyday waking state, I've observed many times after pulling myself outta paralysis that it was not. Often times it had became fluid without me realising it. It is this fluidity of ones logic that allows dreams to begin. In order to allow a dream to start, I find that I have to let my logic slip. Once the dream has started I can grab my ordinary everyday logic again and then I'm "lucid". If I don't bother to grab my logic then I find that I forget I'm dreaming. I've observed this during times where I'm lucid then forget I'm dreaming then become lucid again. Its this combination of lucidity and non lucidity that allows me to back engineer the role that logic plays in the creation and maintenance of "reality".

As for auras, I'm pretty interested in that. I've never seen one before. My dad claims to be able to see them from time to time. He claims that he has 2 of them lol. He said he saw that when he had a kirlian photograph taken of him at a psychic fare. I'm gonna build a kirlian camera one of these days. If I'm not mistaken its a fairly simple process, you just modify a regular camera.

EDIT!!! MUST READ!!! ---->

I have just interpreted one of my dreams, and I must say, it is one of the BEST interpretations I have ever HAD!! OMFG. Well, let me begin with the story before hand. The day after I took shrooms, I came back to my dorm and saw my trippy poster hanging on the wall and thought, hmm.... this looks a lot like what I saw on shrooms. Then it occurred to me, This had to be one of the other dimensions shrooms show you. well that night I had a very vivid dream, The dream was me inside of my dorm room, looking at the poster that I thought was another dimension. The poster was like a puzzle, I put in the top 2 pieces and had the 3rd piece in my hand. but wait... the third piece is blank, just pitch black. I keep turning it around, and around trying to figure out this last puzzle piece. WAHLAH!!!! I figured out what that dream means, I have made many theories about the universe, so the dream means that I understand some of the universe, but have not yet figured out what lies beyond my findings. Wow, this dream makes total sense. THANK YOU DREAMS!

Thats fairly obvious though isn't it. We learn things and a big picture seems to start emerging from what we learned but as we learn more we see that the big picture that had emerged before is no longer accurate so we have to adapt it to the new pieces. Its kinda like connecting in the dots. If you don't have all the dots yet then who knows what picture will emerge when you connect them.

If you really want to see what's behind door no 1, try DMT.

I like this thread though. Lot's of good thoughts. Truth is not limited to the one thing that's completely true in all circumstance (if such a thing exists). Truth the gestalt. Everyone's interpretation is different. everyone's is finite. When looking at someone describing their beliefs, a Christian may appear false describing a King God ruling everything. But even Buddhism and Hindu mythology acknowledge a King God in the most inner circle of the exterior universe. They don't believe this ruling God is eternal, of course, but rather that it's simply the first being to reincarnate in the exterior universe after each cleansing. The point is just because someone does not have the whole truth it doesn't make them completely wrong. Everyone must develop on their own and you can help them develop or hinder them but you cannot force their views through any amount of logic or aggression.

There are also two keys to working the Law of Attraction and actually using it in your favor. The first is detachment. Be action oriented rather than result oriented. Focusing too much on what you're trying to get takes you out of the moment and makes you less apt to acquire it. The universe responds to workers, not beggars. For this to work, you must be attached to no particular outcome.

Once you are properly detached from reward, punishment and identity you can effectively utilize faith. Faith cannot work if you still heavily identify yourself as separate because there is nothing you can actually, tangibly project it into since objects are not actually separate and that attitude collapses the wave function/power of faith (wakka wakka). Faith is a reminder to yourself that you are indestructible and anything that is indestructible is not really you. Faith is a reminder that no matter what happens, no matter what is true or not true, you will see your way through. This roots your expectations in a positive place and as long as you're detached they'll stay there.
