Concentrating on The Spice

[Wax]

Frequently I find it really distracting to my experience if I try to think. I've been experimenting with different ideas while smoalking, I'm not fully in hyperspace when I do these mental tests but it seems that the act of trying to think about a specific problem starts messing with my experience in a weird way.

For instance, last night I was trying to focus on ways I could attain certain career goals while smoalking a few bowls of changa, every time I would try to think about them I would recede from the wonderful experience I was having and it would get really chaotic and lots of "insect buzzing" would start to happen. It almost feels like the spice wants me to go with the flow and every time I try to impose my agenda it gets angry.:|

It seems that the spice clears my mind completely and it is really nice to meditate it that state but I was hoping I could try to utilize the altered mindset to get creative with problem solving.

Does anyone else experience this?

I totally agree with this, I believe it's best to go into these states with as empty mind as possible, due to the nature and amount of information "out there".

Your intended goal would seem to dictate your method of ingestion.

I would think orally and perhaps transdermal use would have a much more positive construct on productive introspection.

I believe life related personal stuff should be pondered
During normal business hours then released during spice journeys.

If its relevent and important enough it will show itself .

Let it flow , imposing things on it doesn't seem to work very well in my experience .

An open observant mind is a great start.

No expectations and it will do its magic on you .

Tele and Felnik, I wholeheartedly agree with completely letting go of expectations and all thoughts. It's wonderful to just float around in the sea of imagery and love and thats exactly what I always end up doing when I attempt these experiments

Purple_dye, you make a very good point. One of these days I will be lucky and have enough alone time to drink some ayahuasca, I'm eager for that day to come!

A few times I've gone in and just asked it, "OK, show me something I couldn't normally think of." which is a little silly I know, that kind of goes without saying. Nonetheless I've never been disappointed.

Guyomech, I suppose you can't go wrong asking that question

Glad I'm not the only one who's mind is being controlled plant magic! I've also noticed that while I can hardly think about the things I want to, I can make observations about what I'm experiencing and have no problem thinking about them. Very strange, it's like I'm only allowed to think about what it wants me to.

In my experience. DMT shows you what you need, not what you want. And if you follow that logic, emotionally and mentally. Healing will occur. If the problem on your mind is of relevance, then the trip in some way will relate to it.
