I haven't been off booze for longer than a week since I was about 16. And 2-3 most evenings is the routine now. I'm curious about the clarity and energy I might get if I give it a break, but not curious enough. Who might I become?

Someone intolerable probably. Too bright eyed and bushy tailed and more importantly too evangelical to cope with. That's what I found when I went sober. I highly recommend it.

Some people say I'm a terrible person sober and some people say Im terrible person drunk and the bad thing is I suspect they're both right.
 
I'm not really bothered about others, if anything i'm more tolerant and forgiving and playful after a couple. I'm liking people less as I age but drink helps with that. My concern is how brilliant I might be sober,how fast, how committed, razor sharp and ruthless

That does happen. Ill tell you what, you watch me get progressively more more brilliant razor sharp and ruthless over the next couple of months and then you will have some idea of the sort of gains you too could enjoy if only you had an iron will like mine.
 
I wonder will you seek to find your sweet release elsewhere or will you just get comfortable on a new plane

Yeah, I think last time it was all about the new plane. The plane was fundamental. The idea of just staying there without breaking it up and disrupting it. No rewards for good behaviour. You already feel great, you're gorgeous, you're brilliant, why do you need a sweetie and a pat on the head?

You know, you can stay here forever. It's where you want to be. It's like tripping.

If luka can stay off the booze indefinitely then he will outlive us all by thousands of years and eventually be faced with the choice of remaining in mortal lands to gradually fade away to nothing, or take ship from the Havens into the Ancient West.

I struggle to believe this actually does anything beyond auto hypnosis but I might get bored enough to try and maybe it's all auto hypnosis in any case. Teach me please.

I actually did this in Glastonbury no less - not at the festival, actually in Glastonbury. It was like the official day of Holotropic Breathwork. They put a thing in my mouth, it was crazy.

Can you describe it a bit? My boss was telling me he did it in a room full of people here in Berlin and it was total pandemonium. People all around him freaking out.

Currently re-re-reading Grof’s classic Realms of the Human Unconscious during breaks from work.

Not sure about the birth trauma plots, but it’s like a good head floss.

it's a good one. brutal case studies. have you seen his latest "the way of the psychonaut"?
