Thinking about the drunk truth thing and I am a bit confused not to say flabbergasted cause my therapist told me there is such a thing as mean drunks and my hubby swears he doesn’t remember or mean anything he said. He doesn’t remember
What to believe, ? He was kinda breaking up with me 🥹 but he says he doesn’t remember anything
The one who really have experienced it is not going to just describe about it but will do their best to help you experience it too and are very happy to share what helped them in the journey. It is an outpouring and beyond their control You can sense it in their eyes as their while body speaks! That too for free once they know we are really eager to experience it and sacrifice everything for it.
So if anyone is going on charging even after our dedication that means the person is a charlatan.
I love reading your articles, but this one really pushed some buttons in my brain. I think the simple fact that we can enter altered states of consciousness either with drugs or by sheer concentration is truly wonderful… it also makes me wonder about how other conscious animals might experience their consciousness 🤔
Let’s distinguish between perception and perspective. We primarily spend our time in the perception mode, which is influenced by our routine-oriented lives. This mode has a hypnotic effect, leading us to consume excessive amounts of it, making it natural to seek a break. This break can be metaphorically likened to shock therapy, which disrupts our routine and allows us to shift into the zen or creative modes. Within these modes, we discover perspective, which arises from our nonlinear holistic mode of consciousness. This mode elevates our perception, enabling heightened consciousness and, in some cases, psychedelic experiences.
Perception vs. Perspective
To understand this process, let us start by distinguishing perception from perspective. Perception is our default cognitive stance: reactive, linear, and survival-driven. We operate in this mode when we wake up, make coffee, commute, respond to emails, and go through our social scripts. We absorb stimuli, interpret them based on past experiences, and rarely question the deeper structure of our reality. Perception mode is utilitarian—it helps us function.
But herein lies the hypnotic trap. Routine perception dulls novelty. The world begins to look like a flattened map of itself. We become prisoners of our neural shortcuts—what Daniel Kahneman might call System 1 thinking—fast, frugal, and prone to bias. As Susan Blackmore has argued in her explorations of consciousness, we live with the illusion of self, perpetuated by recursive, self-reinforcing thought patterns.
Perspective, however, is a different beast. It is not passive but active, not linear but holistic. Perspective mode is the aerial view—a nonlinear opening of awareness that allows us to see connections, to experience unity, to find beauty in the fractal complexity of life. This shift often requires what you aptly called shock therapy—a jolt out of the mundane, a rupture in the mental narrative.
Blackmore is partially right about meditation that helps us to tap deeper or higher level of consciousness.
As per my personal experience I can say that it is best to practice awareness meditation in the morning during any one act of routine -I practice it during brushing my teeth- and Dynamic Meditation in the evening.
Dynamic meditation will help you get a glimpse of no-thought experience within 10 days. We must focus more on experimenting because the inner or higher consciousness grows by learning from such experiences.
Knowledge about Types and levels of chakras is of not much use.

Astral projection and telepathy are both possible and, once experienced, never forgotten...
Is it from your own experience?
These are just stories I have heard from close friends who had those experiences...

In what ways is life hard for you right now?
Right now, my life is as light as an air balloon. The hard part is the expectation that it may burst at any moment.
