What I like to do

[Greenport]

Well dont think this is weird but. Im wiccan, its my religion. I love weed because it brings me into a state of "Nirvana" if you will. and when im high in nature I can sense the elements all around me. any1 else beleive in elements?

[Hamlet]

Elements? Oh, maybe you mean elementals.

I think that's awesome that you can become aware of such things around you. I've heard of many different religions and beliefs which encompass nature as a center of spirituality and I find these beliefs very interesting.

However, I'm not Wiccan and I imagine that it would be very difficult for me to experience the same thing which you've experienced. I have read anecdotes from other people claiming something similar to you though. A deep connection with nature, a profound understanding of nature, etc.

Contrarily, I think that the sense of connection may simply be a byproduct of smoking weed, lol. I know that I feel more in tune with people when im high, especially when really high. So it's possible that this is just a product of both an open mind and the mystical effects of cannabis.

Either way, enjoy it, and relish in the beaty of nature (which, by the way, exists sans mary jane. although being Wiccan, I'm sure you're aware of this ;) ).

Thanks for sharing though, definitely.

hhmm, well...fire, water, earth and air aren't something one necessarily has to believe in. They're not invisible and obviously there for full inspection by anyone. So ya lost me on that one. I've heard of elementals which are supposed to be invisible thoughtforms dancing around like pixies n' such.

I don't think you guys are understanding the man correctly. He says he can sense all the elements around him. He's not saying that he is simply able to feel the heat of a flame or the cool of an ice cube. It's deeper than that. And it's a beautiful thing.

Way too fluffy for me, bro.

Nirvana is the permanent state of enlightenment (amongst a few other definitions). If you are speaking in spiritual terms, which you are, then I doubt that weed brings you to Nirvana, especially numerous times.

nir·va·na (n�r-v�n, nr-)
n.

1. often Nirvana
1. Buddhism. The ineffable ultimate in which one has attained disinterested wisdom and compassion.
2. Hinduism. Emancipation from ignorance and the extinction of all attachment.
2. An ideal condition of rest, harmony, stability, or joy.

I think you've also misinterpretted this guy. At least from what I can tell. I think he just means he feels very peaceful when in nature. Is this something foreign to you? It's definitely not to me.

A lot of things make me feel intune with nature.
One of my favorites: By yourself, one a nice day, walk deep into the woods, away from the path, find a nice spot to relax, and just... Be. Make no noise, movement. After about an hour, nature will have slowly eased back into it's regular order, and you can observe it.
Or another: Get stoned, and go somewhere outside that you like. Somewhere not changed by man so much. And then.... Hug the Earth. You can't wrap your arms around it, but you can certainly express gratitude.
Get stoned, and spend the night just staring at the sky. Feel the earth beneath you, nurturing you, protecting you, hugging you back.
Feel connected in a primal and sophisticated sense, to everything life entails. Feel nature coursing through your own veins.
Breathe Nature.. BE Nature.

When I smoke weed, that's when I get a moment of clarity. I can't really communicate because my mind is going over a million things a second, but I focus so much more and better when I'm high. Get so deep into thought and everything is so clear and understanding.

Deep thought. That's one of my favorite things about weed, lol!

i kind of get what your sayin man, like, getting stoned in your bedroom is okay, but getting REALLY stoned in your garden or outside somewhere gives you a much greater sense of being alive. just being in the moment.
i try to smoke more often in places where you can enjoy the feeling of resting or relaxing such as on a boat or in my garden, its a thousand times better than smoking in a car watching for police or in your room worrying about parents and so on, try getting high somewhere you feel safe, somewhere you dont need to worry, - even if you dont come up with the meaning of life im sure you will feel a great sense of happiness and almost a sense of rebirth, i find GROWING weed has also helped me come in touch with nature alot too, and i feel alot happier and healthy now thanks to that,
thnx for hearing me out man,

-oh and there are more than four elements in the real world, lol there is a whole chart of them in almost every science lab...
