How Similar to Dreaming is the Ayahuasca Experience? - Sidarta Ribeiro

[@Nendomin]

This is really good and I'm really glad research is being done on these subjects. Makes me happy for the future.

Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was myself. Soon I awakened, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man. Zhuangzi

I would like to see some of the study results which, as he mentions, are to be done

And what's so good about remembering bad experiences and traumas with Aya?

[@chetaytiti]

+africanchina1 it is good because those are blocked emotion that causes health issues. the limbic area of the brain recreates those memories and we have an open gate to revise and solve unfinished business. which heals us.

[@pilorin]

@@chetaytiti Yup! I have been drinking it many times and twice it made me go to the experience I had as a 3 yo with my abuser. The first time the memories came to me, I felt compassion for him (which I already felt before, but now there was a certainty I didn't harbour negative feelings towards him, but subconsciously I have bad feelings towards the experience) and the second time Ayahuasca took me to that childhood event (which was 1 year after the first time) I understood that behind my maneater, dominating ways of relating to men, there is this fear of surrendering in sex, because if I can't control, I feel abused. So yeah, it has helped me. Slowly but surely! ♡

around 27.50 - 28.00 , Does anyone have a good explanation to what he really means there? As I interpret, It sounds to me that the artist used a silver spoon in hand when going to sleep, and when he fell asleep he would drop it and somehow use that as a sign to recognize he was dreaming, and thus become lucid?

[@YuriRadavchuk]

arthurmag.com/2010/06/25/diy-magic-dropping-the-spoon-by-anthony-alvarado/ Does this information answer your question? It is a really interesting subject, techniques of accessing the imagination domain without any substances. The hypnogogia pre- or post- sleep looks like the easiest one for some people, but it's just a speculation. Another field of studies undone.

[@Edooo20]

Yuri Radavchuk Thank you, it certainly does, and it was kind of as I figured, I just had no idea it was such a relatively famous thing/technique. Im gonna have to give this a try, sounds like it should be easily replicated. But what do you mean its just a speculation?

[@YuriRadavchuk]

Eddie Konjic I mean' that i don't have any supportive data to show, that this approach is the easiest way to access he imagination. It's my guess.

[@Edooo20]

Yuri Radavchuk I see. Well i guess there isn't an universal "best method", this just may be one that works for some people, and maybe not for others. I did try last night, and I cant say I achieved something that you get to with mushrooms or lsd etc, I will try again though.

[@YuriRadavchuk]

Eddie Konjic Try tibetian Dream Yoga method.
