‘One of the fundamental rules of this universe appears to be whatever you put out into the world comes back to you multiplied, so if you intend to do some evil to another it will go extremely badly for you in the long run when that very evil rebounds upon you.
The true evil doers in this world however, have learned how to perpetrate truly unspeakable acts of wickedness upon the people of the world but sidestep this rule and escape the effects of karma.'

Buddhism and Drugs
I think over all religions Buddhism would be the most favorable
to drugs and drug use, but when you really contemplate the Buddhist teachings
around drugs it is a simple equation, that the Buddha wanted us to refrain from
all intoxicants and keep the mind as pure as possible and that you can attain
enlightenment this way much to the surprise of drug culture.
However one cannot discount the fact that people are all on
different paths, and if you are at the place in your path where you give
something up to discover the purity of a clear mind then, all the power to you.
I like to mesh my own interpretation (The church of techno)
with that of Buddhist ideology because Buddhism is where I have found the most
comfort and respite amongst chaos. If you were looking at this subject from a
raver church aspect it would be prevalent that you would legalize all forms of
drugs, take them off the black market, end the gang wars, end suffering but you
still have rampant addiction.
Still, this should be up to an individual in the world
rather than society to dictate what we should do with ourselves, this same
society will lock somebody up for growing marijuana yet give a white collar
criminal a more lenient sentence than this it is just brutal.
Expanding ones awareness to a point is okay, It’s just that
some people don’t have the ability to ascertain what is right and wrong when
they are so far down the path of addiction that everything seems like it is
right and ordained for the individuals progression.
The same governments want you to slave away and work 10 hours
a day while they say that you can’t smoke a god given plant placed on this
earth and you can have your whole life ripped to shreds over the need to alter
one’s own consciousness
I just saw so many people that were very very ugly by the
amount of drugs they were taking and I walked to the depths of hell and back in
my own drug use that I truly and metaphorically discovered what hell was like
and exactly what it was.
So meshing the two ideologies together (church and Buddhism)
I would categorically state that everything should be legal and the proper
mechanisms put in place to help those addicted, but also on the other end of
the spectrum you owe yourself your sanity and your health to not follow the
path of addiction, we have people putting needles in their ankles in alleyways
to get high.
A shattered and unfixable society that cares more about
isreal or building jets than feeding and making sure it’s own citizens are
doing okay. This world could be construed as a literal hell of sorts at times
with these skid rows that are dedicated to housing the mentally ill and
addicted tucked away from the mega mansions of the more elite areas of town
ironically whom are most likely profiting from the drug trade to support a
lavish lifestyle.
The Buddha would have chosen the middleground, The Buddha would
not get carried away with addiction because addiction is extreme suffering –
you place your will in the hands of others being dealers, gangsters and
jailers, The Buddha would want to guide the nature of his soul into absolute
enlightenment, however he probably wouldn’t turn down the occasional handful of
hallucinogenic mushrooms or a toke off a pipe of four twenty, Enlightenment is
finding your grace in the middle-ground. With the middle ground you can see
past illusion, have a little fun at the same time and reel yourself in when
life becomes too extreme.

ANNOUNCEMENT
For future discourses I am going to adopt the 'buddhist psychology of discourses' and list a topic then elaborate on that topic, it has taken 5 years of typing at this blog to come to this type of shift... but I believe people would be interested in understanding my take on philosophical topics rather than personal ones, as I believe I have nattered on about my personal life to tiring ends!! Thanks to all those that have stayed with me so long as this Virtual ministry continues to develop :)
