I was at a wicked trance party in anjuna in Goa. This guy Goa Gil played the best set I've ever heard. I didn't stop dancing for the whole set. When I sat down and came down off my MDMA I realised I had blisters all over the soles of my feet. I had to get carried back to my room. It was worth it ✌️❤️

[@PsyGogh]

if you understand the story you would not dance on dope but on the energie of the vibe

[@lennoxforeman601]

@@PsyGogh i rather doing it high

[@PsyGogh]

@@lennoxforeman601 cause you dont understand trance the music it self creates a high

[@lennoxforeman601]

@@PsyGogh I'm not worthy of trance I apologise for enjoying the trance, but not the way I'm supposed too 🙄 I'll never listen to it again until I can get high through the music. I listen to trance most days and I'm married with 2 kids, so obviously I love the music without drugs. Such a stupid comment, enjoy your day

[@PsyGogh]

@@lennoxforeman601 pls listen the story the mayby you wil understand !!!

[@Hypatiaization]

I know a person who was terribly abused as a child. This person has been through so much in a path to healing. Medications, counselling and support from the system. There has been nothing that can heal the pain that they endure everyday. This person told me the only way to 'release' themselves from the inner pain and torment is to trance dance. It takes them away from the pain for a few hours a week.

[@zimma1953]

Psychedelic is perfect... Psychedelic is the sound of the universe.

[@artisakar3054]

At Norwegian forest parties everyone attending contribute in one way or another. And we leave the place like it was when we found it. We try to have it so far into the forest that people who don't care wouldn't even bother to get there. But occasionally a zombie drop by :|

[@ShikisaiMaki]

RIP Goa Gil 🧡🕊✨

The message is there for those who can connect and remember.Om Shanti.

You are the best DJ in the universe i know about, a BIG salute to you brother

[@ShivaSharifi]

Agree :)

[@Nanku42]

Indeed

[@shamaniccolonic777]

Check out Psykovsky

[@ShivaSharifi]

The people that don't understand Gil is because they choose to not want to understand ;) You can not be understanding if you can not stop and listen. The music of the cosmos is found in silence and Gil's sound system and in the wind in the leaves, the running water of a stream, the drummers all beating together in a circle. There are no differences between these things because they are all in conversation with the Universe. Thank you Gil for tickling my ears. You're presence and events have always been a remarkable experience and most blessed addition to my life.

[@MistiClectiCisM]

I think it is a critical issue because between the obviously addicted people and those who may take drugs for learning purposes there is a mass of people who largely do it just for the sake of it (easy escape, tendency to abuse, taking more than the really necessary,..), this is probably the largest percentage of party goers at many festivals.. so it Is an important matter to further critical thinking on drugs at our psytrance events. Society tends to learn slowly, exploring between the extremes

[@waragainstwar1]

Goa Gil is the cool uncle you would want to hang out with all the time

[@TheLeontheking]

i don't get those hate comments here.. for me, he seems to be a kind person.. he has fire in his eyes! really no reason to hate him because you dont agree with everything he says.. just read some beautiful thoughtful comments here too.. no one is perfect, but when we define one only by his mistakes, we become very negative and that is causing the persons we have contact to, as well as ourselves not to be able to cure our mistakes.. critical thinking is important from my pov- we dont have to turn a blind eye on every mistake.. but still i believe we should concentrate on the good sides of a human, so that the person is able to strengthen those good sides :) love and light!

[@matthewtoomer2181]

ancient child alot of these peeps are very sheltered and niave. We all make mistake its our ego. They dont understand that these parties are for bringing down barriers. Its not sexs drugs and rock and roll at all. Its drugs, love and meditation hahaha.

[@eccehumanum450]

Rest in Peace ❤

[@krpa3401]

RIP BABAJI ❤

[@astralprojection6544]

Sure it's a active meditation and that will gives me more maturity and we all are nothing in this world. Such a beautiful baba thanks to spiritual universe .and big thanks to my baba love you a lot more than me baba love youuuuuuuuuu

[@HerrDagerman]

If indeed this man had some influence on the establisment of goatrance, then I can only say; thank you!

[@apoorvaumap9243]

He literally started the entire Goa Trance scene Watch his 2 hour long video with DJ Megalopsy on the channel "MotmPsy"

[@PsyGogh]

@@apoorvaumap9243 unfortunatly thats definitly not true check fred disco is example

[@PsyGogh]

What are the chances of getting a track list for the songs played in the video?

[@menoutube]

Awesome!!

[@surrealkitten9670]

I wish I could still be in touch with the earth like him. I used to be until I developed serious anxiety, and now I can't focus on anything apart from my unrational fear of heart failure... even though I'm completely healthy. Now I have to drink myself to sleep and shit like that. But I will always remember my acid days as the most fun and happy days of my life :P Party on bros! Live with the earth, not on it.

[@TheLeontheking]

oh you can come back to you light :) dont give up!

[@vitormonteiro2203]

[@observergeo2739]

the only healling way,trance musik,the absolute heal.away from our pain of the mind ,an escape for the hours you will be on a fest.the rest of the people just dont know,and close the doors to what life gives us.passions is the number one evolution of our selfs,musik,movement and time we live the present and dance.DANCE PEOPLE,DANCE!FUCK THE REST!THE MOST BEAUTIFULL THING IN MY LIFE,MUSIK,DANCE, VIBE OF THE PEOPLE.AND FINALLY AND MOST VALUABLE -IMAGINATION,BETTER THAN KNOWLEDGE

[@drewp1974]

partially true... yet many of these original tracks were created under the influence of controlled substances,, as were any sounds through the ages.i.e, native tribes around the world.. they go hand in hand///

[@TheCoinSpinner]

Real good message about dance and trance concept..... this is goa concept. the problem is that nothing changes. they dont understand the message. they just want trance for drugs........:(

[@nyzhal]

Big love from here🙏🌼💛 there are people that realise the truith about the trance dance experience that it aint about sex drugs n rock n roll. It is to be one with this universe🙏 tankyu babaji for spreading the vibe💛❤

[@PsyGogh]

but also not this guy. he is a liar so how spiritual can you be !!

[@nyzhal]

@@PsyGogh hey man you know what you're right this comment I did a year ago and I have to admit I was kinda cringe back then.... there's nothing spiritual about tranc danc xperience ur just blasting off ur eardrums with hard fast electronic music while under influence of shitty d rug5😂😂 connecting spirituaity to dr ug#s and electronic music is like the worst thing happened to our generation. Ive met guys who do m3th and claim themselves enlightened 😅 Goa gill is the guru of psytrance wooks

[@PsyGogh]

darkpsy is definitly not how it ment to be !!!

[@PsyGogh]

[@jorgevasconcelosmadetomove]

[@Malkofesse]

I want to know the names of the songs played in this interview!! :P

[@ansahithkrishna]

You can't understand what he's saying unless you've experienced the other side. And if you're calling this good guy a hypocrite or fake, I feel sad for you.

[@avecesdigolaverdad]

how he produce music?? i just see him with a mixer ...

[@allanlimaverde6201]

He is a DJ, he collects tracks from producers and plays them live according to the vibe. But as far as I know he doesn't produce himself. And ah, he doesn't use CDJs cus he is oldschool, he uses tapes

[@DCM88]

he does produce music or used with the nommos? i don't remember the name of that project. and he has said he does fix some tracks sent by amateur producers.

[@observergeo2739]

you are a very talent and long live,you are very happy and this is the mystik key to live long,live free from all kinds of slavery,live in passions,the key also for the evolution of the mind and the spirit.lcd also helps,dmt ,mdma in a controlable way,not taking it every day or every saturday,because we must not abuse our body ,so harmony in place.like we greeks said ! witch means everything with meter is best.but im not sure with trance ,you always can hear trance ,all the time,no real harm.come in greece again grandpa ,we waiting for you to play your crazy musik ,in a crazy land,with really free and crazy minds.

[@observergeo2739]

like hallusinogen said something like that i think.wich i say ,life needs crazyness to understand it more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sfdatman8097]

A true American Classic

[@WonderKidOfficial]

That simply means you don't know GOA GIL in actual...and I must like to tell you..He's a sadhu yet a Dj!!!

[@astralprojection6544]

Yeah I love babaji more than my life bro such a beautiful baba thanks to spiritual universe and cosmos

[@yossiking123]

הוא כל כך פלופ

[@jasnah3]

Lsd and spirituality?

[@ansahithkrishna]

LSD = Spiritual

[@prashobprakashan7877]

🤘

[@TNJX]

not usually at psychedelic events

[@MoragTong]

so your point is he should give a different answer to the *same question* every time someone asks him?

[@astralmoonwalker]

I go to festivals pretty often and yeah those "shitty zombies on drugs" do dirty on our mother nature but its up to us with said "consciouness" the people who really are there for the right reasons to clean up after in any way possible because if you don't help mother nature you're just as good as those shitty zombies

[@TNJX]

Rarely at psy gigs

[@rishmeister3554]

Notwithstanding all the bullshit to the contrary. . . . . he's kickass!!!

[@vitormonteiro2203]

rishikesh jadhav thats the true spirit

[@ComedyKids111]

track name ?

[@manapdlr19]

Kali Yuga by Goa Gil.

[@sebbyseb4]

those "shitty zombies on drugs" are addicts who are lost, and these events likely still serve as a spiritual and positive experience in comparison to the rest of these peoples' lives. i don't agree with wasting a space in nature at all, but don't put a mind below you. everyone's consciousness needs to be raised, especially the "shitty zombies on drugs". we're probably better having these people congregate and connect somewhere than not at all.

[@maggot92]

Babajis accent sounds kina indian since he ha lived in india for so long :)

[@abinmathewchittuparambil]

twister machine...

[@Sketcher86]

oh i din know that i gone mad for a while...actually i dnt like ppl criticize india ...keep peace :)

[@Lucifers1ngh]

Rishikesh Jadhav cameramaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

[@ChaosOfEmotiionsz]

HE IS A GOD.

[@tetsusaigaiy]

Indian authorities...

[@TNJX]

Not at psychedelic parties

[@Silent_Horror.official]

did he just forget his dialogue??

[@sachinb.v3151]

As babaji mentioned it's not about sex drugs and rock n roll... as he mentioned most of us we don't understand the concept...... it's very hard to understand the words of epiphany who has been there and done that?? And now just follow the normal positive vibes of life.. you don't need drugs to get indulge your self with spirituality..... that's sad babaji how the authorities treat you..... sad to hear.... they don't say anything whenever you go to kumbh mela.,, Om Namo Narayana babaji...

[@DCM88]

what drugs? doing hash , mushrooms, etc? that's not drugs. i never seen hard drugs in those parties unlike more mainstream festivals with teenagers smoking cigarretes and meth.

[@shakeweller]

Actually, thats correct behaviour... dont give a sht about everything.. THAT is what ruins the planet, just live!

[@fricaso1]

locu locu

[@GeminiAmbience]

Wrong Gil, some of us DO want to hear about the real shit!

[@freddystaelens]

To the BJP I would say: don’t spit on your roots. Be more Khajurahoan. Your loins are protuberant , more than any other non spiritual atheist. Shiv Shakti, or as Gill would exclaim, Har Har Mahadev.

[@eddieblack4568]

Friaso1,why are you even on here? it is evidently not your thing and that's fine, find your thing and leave negative comments there ,it would make more sense,and this way you'd be with your people.

[@eddieblack4568]

PEACE!!!

[@fricaso1]

Eddie Black Peace,yea :)

[@eddieblack4568]

And yes Gil,it was Hippies of their day that settled in kabutsis in Israel way back in the early daysl!,I am for sharing this ancient land and giving Palestinians their own state and giving them back their national pride and national identity, it is amazing how nice people can be when they feel that they are being treated fairly but that's a story for another time.Om!

[@fricaso1]

We sell drugs and we project spiritual messages in brain with all the latest technology.From the early hippie days.What you people do to young people is freaking,stupid and pointless.

[@fricaso1]

Eddie Black namaste!

[@artisakar3054]

I don't believe you need to experience any of the ones you mentioned to transcend duality. Because when you transcend duality non of them even exist.

[@alvinlepik5265]

full on-ish / darkpsy, not goa trance, sadly. Never been able to get into darkpsy.

[@Mr5inner]

psytrance is goa trance, genius

[@funkolog]

i dont believe him not a word. koxbox is a real hero for me.

[@ansahithkrishna]

Too sad you don't believe in trance.

[@PsyGogh]

goa gil is now way the beginning of the goa scene he was psychedelic rock he hated the electronic scene back in the day it was laurent garnier no1 who started. together with stephano ghezi fred disco and franz doc who started the scene they played new beat / acid hou8se / beginning of trance in the beginning

[@funkolog]

@@ansahithkrishna if I didn't believe, I probably wouldn't get here. I just said my opinion. I feel like he's all acting. the music he presents does not evoke a feeling of harmony in me and it is difficult to dance to.

[@sport-in1bi]

i find psytrance negative

[@ribxni]

allways the same talk.. the answer for the first question is memorized to the point he stops and think: what come next??!

[@HighRoLLerWWW]

HE USED TO STARE AT GOATS IN THE ARMY!

[@kagomehigurashi3716]

Pretty Basic Shit.

[@DualisticPerspective]

one thing people forget is that psytrance music can make portals open for aliens and other bad entities to enter peoples energy fields.. music is energy and darkpsy plays at frequensies that bring about that negative entities.

[@PsyGogh]

psy defintly do goa trance is different hugszz

[@gymlin123]

and discos, with alcoholics, didn't destroyed a piece of nature.. sure.. omfg

[@kostasdinos6759]

i can not stand de gurus want to be anymore

[@fricaso1]

gil is nothing more than a hypocrite,and you can really understand this through this interview.If you believe gil is a holy man or wte,then im really sorry about you man :) locu.locu ^^

[@ansahithkrishna]

What in this interview makes you think he's a hypocrite? *I'm waiting

[@pablos011]

sekta

[@XXsardarXX]

Yawn!....Why is this ageing hippy dressed like an Indian sadhu? he's just a western DJ.

[@matthewtoomer2181]

Supa Nova no he isnt. He started the goa party scene without him no goa trance
