I'm really curious.
Every day I feel more and more connected to the energy fields all around the planet, I'm staying positive and in the NOW, I feel love towards the strangers I pass.
If a person smokes weed, does that hinder the energy output from them? Is a non smoker doing more good for the Earth than a smoker?
I'm 19, in college (all expenses covered by scholarship), and I know I came here now for a big reason! The universe has provided me with everything I need to exist in the 3D world with virtually no struggle, other than self-imposed illusionary problems. I trust everything is taken care of, and it is. I LOVE THE EARTH AND ALL THE LIFE HERE!!!
Do ya'll think I'm taking advantage of what's been provided for me? I get a feeling that maybe I could be providing Earth with more powerful energy somehow, and all I can think of is to quit toking.
Thank you for your responses! This web site has helped me through many a hopelessly depressed/ feeling like no one else knows what's going on here day.
Love and Light to you!!

But I'm not an idiot lol And you are picking the wrong guy to try and battle with, seriously. You can't win, and if I wanted to, I could hammer you down like a nail. But I won't do that, because I'm nice, and I don't want to hurt your feelings. Moreover, I'm not your enemy, nor do I want to be. I just stated a simple fact of life, you can't ascend into true masterhood if you still depend on physical substances. Why you take such offense to that, I'm not quite sure. And I stand by everything I said, so don't even try that garbage with me.
One day, and you mark these words, one day...you'll see that it was true. And if you think you can ascend while still toking up, you are living in a dream world...which comes as no surprise, weed will do that to you lol But you know..have fun with it while it lasts, because you'll have to give it up one day.
Well muse I would like to tell you a little story,
A couple years ago I attempted suicide. While I was in the psych ward, everyone was convinced that I had a drinking problem due to the frequency and volume that I was consuming in the months prior. I insisted that I was not addicted or dependent, and that I had every intention of drinking in manner that I was. So, everyone told me that I would not be able to quit and that I was simply in denial.
In order to satisfy their requests I agreed to spend one month in an in-patient substance abuse facility. While I was there I had no urges to drink in fact the only time I thought about it was when the councelors kept repeating to me that I was in denial and that I needed to accept my addiction. I refused to go to 12 steps because it seemed like a church, and that I did not wish to partake in an organization or program that required getting strength from a higher power.
After I got out I did not have a single drop for 10 months. I still went to the bars every day for the social aspect as that was why I drank in the first place. One day I decided this is very stressfull to tell myself that I absolutely cannot drink under any circumstance only to satisfy the falsities in the beliefs of those who I care about. So I started drinking again in expression of my own free choice. Remarkably I had no issues with alcohol as I simply decided that I no longer felt it necessary to consume to that volume. In the last 13 months I have drank perhaps 10 times.
My point is that everyone assumed that I was an alcoholic because alcoholics say that they do not have a drinking problem. These people often forget that people who do not have a drinking problem also respond in the same manner. I received no apology, no admitance that I was correct in my understanding of myself, and every problem that I encountered in my life after was then stated that it was "Because I was drinking again" regardless of wether it had any correlation or not.
Do I think that I could quit if I decided that I wished, absolutely. Do I think that someone like John, can percieve this as a possiblity, absolutely not. When someone has made up their mind before listening to the other side, its called prejudice. More importantly in this case, by associating my position with everyone who has been an addict it is very easy to attack my credibility.
I would like to say that being surrounded by crack-addicts, heroine addicts, and lifetime alcoholics, it was very easy for me to see the difference between my behavior and theirs when living in such close quarters. I am happy that I was given an opportunity to perform light work for those around me in such a dark place, and I think that some of them, perhaps were able to kick their addiction permanently, by having someone who was willing to relate to them, and simply not run them down from a superiority complex. Most counselors take the position that John has, in that they were once addicted and overcame it therefore they are an all knowing expert on everyone elses situation having anything to do with substance use.
Thank you Louise. I do feel like there is still a subtlety to your statement that I am mistaken for continuing my use however. I understand that many will have different viewpoints and I think that consistency is critical to maintaining that. By that I mean that by associative thought I feel like in your view I still get lumped into the "Lost" group. I am exactly where I intend to be, and in that position I deem it necessary to stand up to those who even suggest that it must be either one way or another. Throughout this conversation I have tried to give a thorough depiction of how the causalities that have been listed as "Anti-pot" have often been a mirsrepresentation of the reality that I experience and therefore it is possible that the result may not be a positive result for me to stop.
When I say consistency I mean things like a statement "where do you buy from" implying the kind of issue relating to blood money. It's not that it is not a valid point, however do you question where you buy your food, clothing, and gasoline. Is every food you eat or water you drink completely pesticide free. Was your shirt or shoes or purse made by slave-labor.
I am not saying that it is necessary to avoid all of these things as it would be highly impractical in living life in modern society to be concerned with every detail to that degree, as we all know that our clothes are made this way. We know that our oil comes from war, and that profits are typically deriven from the degradation of others. This is why I say that much of the arguments presented for pot being "Un-Ascension worthy" are subjective arguments.
They are causes which are not necessarily applicable however appear relevant at face value when trying to present an argument. I am aware that these types of things come out of my statements as well. There is a major difference however, when one is willing to accept making a misleading statement, or willing to apologize or express that they are not the result of perfection in viewpoint. This conversation as a macro debate, left me feeling a little like I was having a conversation with the persona of FoxNews.
In my stoned moments I've wondered about if it was good or not, and I had a strong intent to ask the same question you ask now on this site.
But instead of me, you asked and posted the question, my intent was manifested by your actions. I guess that answers the question.

The question to be asked by myself is....why do our physical bodies have receptors in the brain, as well as in our immune system for the substance called THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol)??
The psychoactive effects of THC are mediated by its activation of the CB1 receptor, which is the most abundant G-protein coupled receptor in the brain.
Did the creator of our bodies intend us to use cannabis by creating the mechanism to utilize the substance?
There always more questions than answers, i guess.
Lots of love and light to all of you.
