    There is no psytrance "scene"...

    in General Psytrance

    Posted

    And in either case, does it make a difference to people if there truly is a scene, or not?

     

    Probably none. It would be nice if there were one I reckon, though I guess it is that longing/desire that

    makes one open to be "manipulated", so to speak.

    But in all practically it probably doesn't make any difference.

    To misquote Mr T. Mckenna....

     

     

    "There is no psytrance scene. There are only people who know this and people who don't know this and are

    therefore being manipulated by the people who do know it."

     

    And to quote Mr T. Leary,

     

    "Think for yourself,

    Question Authority."

    Managing your time

    People seemingly make time for what they consider important.

    Mosbunal people I have met who've claimed to be too busy, are actually

    poor at managing their time and resources, but sombunal of them seem to

    prefer that lifestyle, as it seems to justify their existance, by being

    "busy", and thus whatever they are doing "is terribly important".

    I am sure you are not one of these people. ;)

     

    mosbunal=most but not all

    sombunal=some but not all

     

    You need to calm down and manner up. Swearing once or twice is fine and dandy but posting all out blind accusations so aggressively is a bit much. There are better and more mature ways to go about it.

     

    Simply it wasn't blind accusations, but based on over 10 years professional experience in the psytrance "scene" (sic).

    So before you go making such blatant made-up statements, I suggest you get your facts in order.

    Elysium, is right.

    C***s who don't bother to even read their mail because they are "too busy" are just full of s**t and ego.

    "Oh look at me, I am so important and busy maaaaaaaaan, I can't even open an email account and look at some

    emails that take a few minutes to answer"...

     

    Being a full-time father, making psychedelic videos, writing computer games, looking after and doing DIY on

    a house, cooking and cleaning, and tending to a pregnant partner, and I still manage to read and answer my

    emails, comments on youtube, write on forums.... etc etc.

     

    Open your mind, and realise these f*****s don't give a damn about anything else other than their egos.

     

    Good luck with trying to make any money out of this "bulls**t" scene, I am 99.5% certain you are going to lose

    even more money than you did running a free-label. But I also hope that I am wrong.

     

    Bit of a shame mind, I had only just discovered your lovely label. But anyway fancy a nice new free spanking video

    for your Dimension Gate 2 release?

    I suspect they want to remain anonymous because how awful it sounded.

    Fucking terrible, as far as music goes, at least to my ears.

    A new level of crap to scrap off the barrel of psytrance.

    I would give this to my enemies to listen to.

    But hey what do I know, I am probably just an old fart, and all the kiddies will love it.

    Imho, Pinchbeck is just another hustler, going for the "new-age" dollar, with his book and lecture tour.

    His second book on the Return of Queztocoatl was turgid at best, full of ideas stolen from elsewhere.

     

    The "eschaton" is a personal event, not some hollywood blockbuster, global apocalypse or such nonsense.

     

    And mushrooms aren't strictly an orally active DMT entheogen, for a start the amount of DMT present is very small, and the metabolic

    pathways, of the breakdown and recombination of the indole molecule is subtly, but profoundly different. Really

    with magic mushrooms, it seems to be the breadth of typtamine substances that give it, its' unique flavour imho.

     

    There is no "psytrance" community, trust me, I have been to most of the roots of it, and it just doesn't exist,

    other than a hopeful projection in our minds. Part of the process of waking up/enlightenment seems to be realising

    this, and how certain people are using these natural inclinations of ours, the desire for sangha, to basically sell us "shit".

     

    Trying to get people to "do shit", or "get off their busted arses", is for the most point pointless. Not only does it tend

    to display a lack of appreciation for the situation, and wind up others, but really the only person one need to encourage, berate, and enthuse, is

    oneself. To judge others, for what they are or aren't doing, is a lack of tact, afterall we are ALL seemingly doing exactly

    as we should be. Though thankfully this isn't either deterministic or fatalistic, as we can seemingly to some degree change our

    own actions, which we hope will be the butterfly to ignite the changes mosbunal of us we like to see in our environment. But even

    if not, it is about living the life, one wills/imagines/dreams rather than feels is dictated and imposed by foreign/alien factors.

    Well that looks like an example of your "mind-manifesting".

    It is a book that Robert Anton Wilson, McKenna, Timothy Leary and Alan Watts all recommend people should read to various degrees,

    and in most of their cases forms one of the pillars of their, in some ways "our" psychedelic philosophy.

    It seems a lot scarier and intellectual than it is, and I think that is one way it is "hidden", as though it is unaccessible, but

    to only the most educated minds. Our Culture tends to do that with information it wants to suppress it seems.

     

    Anyway I was wondering whether anyone else had read it, and what they thought of it?

    Journey to the East by Herman Hesse

    in Books and literature!

    Posted

    My favourite Hesse book by far,

     

    Reminding us that we carry each other on the spiritual journey, and that some parts of the path are narrow ledges, that by virtue of our own self-testing we must at times walk alone.

     

    But mostly that "The East", that which we seek, really resides in each and everyone of us, here and now, not somewhere else, sometime else.

     

    I found quite a few of his other books quite depressing, but worthwhile.

     

    I wonder who else got turned onto Hesse through Leary's writings?

    Spiritualism and drugs in the psytrance scene

    *sigh*

     

    Its just a pretty picture I made (as in the 3d model), which is actually of a Satyr (see Pan/Puck).

    Mythologically a creature I have always felt a kinship towards, for various childish and trite reasons.

     

    By the way the Polish reference is one of these

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions

     

    But anyway I am outta of here, I think the scene as I imagined it is over, and I really need to let go

    and find greener pastures. And don't worry it's not you, it's me.

     

     

    Love you all as myself, and hope you all find what you are looking for.
