ORIGINAL: Kana Piling on to LP's comments, I also spent lots and lots of time with meditation, eastern philosophy, zen, martial arts and shamanism so I'm pretty familiar with trance states. Well that, and when I was a kid, I did lots and lots of drugs. As in so many that I won't discuss it on a public forum lest you think I'm a liar or Keith Richards PS-LP-I meant "Oh, Dog Piss" as an exclamatory remark of surprise, nothing negative or dubious :-) Kana, I told you to get the fuck out of my head, Jesus Christ... Not much into Shamanism, though when I have experienced this initially, I was studying different Tantra traditions, as well as a background in mysticism, a Tibetan Buddhist tradition, kundalini and Western occult... I find topspace to be spiritual, definitely trance like, similar to when I flow during painting but with a more intense edge. I lose track of duration, being more focused on the flow, ebbing, rhythms of the person I am with. Shrug, physiological reactions tempered by the perspective I was coming from. Lost all sense of self, more focused on the experiential, the reactions... and exhausted, drained almost hollow afterwards. I know nothing about previous drug experiences when I was younger, nope, not me, nuh uh...
