Philosopher's stones

Giorgia
Tuesday 08 September, 2009

I took these truffles for the first time by chewing them up (they taste HORRIBLE), today in the morning. I was alone, in a nice environment, out of my grandpa’s farmstead on the hills, laying in a nice meadow, with a wonderful landscape. I took 6 gr and I spent three nice hours. During the first twenty minutes, I was in a trance (thanks to the right music on the mp3), with very colorful closed-eyes visions, feelin’ light as if I hadn’t my body.. it was as if my hands, my legs, my whole body, didn’t belong to me.. I can’t explain it better ;)
During the trance, I heard a voice inside me, like an external presence inside my brain.. it was as if there was someone in my head that was not me (Pink Floyd quote ^^), the voice of a being from another world, from another reality that makes clear to me a lot of things, reassuring me about some of my worries about my usual way of livin’, thinkin’, facin’ life’s problem. In particular, I get the “panta rei” philosophy.
After this, I started feelin’ tired, happly disoriented, very perky and gay (it was also very sunny and hot) and the non-physicality sensation increased a lot. Then, my conscience and my ego totally disappeared. I spent three incredible hours of pure childhood, being surprised at everything, every flower, bug, cloud, butterfly around me. It was an amazing exaltation of the reality and, the most important thing, I faced myself with an incredible simplicity. It was as if I wasn’t me.. I was myself, as a child, thinking and reflecting about myself, as an 18 years-old girl.. and I learnt a lot of things about myself, a lot of things that my conscious ego, with its rational barriers, could never have faced.. things that frighten me, that I am worried by, that is difficult to face.. I saw the pure reality.
After these three timeless hours, I slowly got back to my usual rational ego, and I was incredibly touched by everything, the reality was so sweet, the music I was listening to made me cry, everything was joyful and peaceful, I was really in harmony with myself, with nature, with my thoughts, with every single being.

Of course, I expected something totally different, an intensive visual trip, but the perceptible reality didn’t change. Anyway, it was really a worthwhile experience!!!! ^__^

Ps. I tried to eat something (even though I was not hungry) one hour later my return to consciousness, and I vomited. I felt rather sick for one hour, then I had a rest and I had dinner, without nausea or other problems.
