Weed and Witchcraft

Seriously, did everyone just get high and go sanitize their chakras or something? Not a single living soul here to actually have a real conversation... 😕

Just empty... totally empty. Especially the first one.

cosmictinker21, stop dodging the issue. 😉

Oh, right. I actually dragged myself out of my cozy bed and now I'm just wandering around the kitchen...😁

By the way, did you actually clear out your first chakra, or at least disinfect it? Dennis Collins38 seemed to notice. You really should look after your health, you know... ☕

I suppose it essentially slows down both your body and your mind, though I guess that really depends on whether you’re strong enough to maintain control over your own faculties. It can certainly be an interesting way to perceive certain events from various perspectives, I suppose. That said, it does take a toll on the physical body, and it's almost certainly healthier to avoid it altogether. If one focuses more on gaining conscious mastery over their brain and their physical self, then eventually—once we hit that threshold—we probably won't even need those crutches anymore. Personally, I don't have anything against cannabis itself; if it's truly what someone requires to facilitate their personal growth, then I have no issue with that. But, assuming we're talking about spiritual progression, I find the idea of systematically poisoning oneself without any real intention of moving forward—just smoking recreationally for the sake of messing around—to be somewhat unappealing, if I'm being honest.

Honestly, I feel like the way this question was framed just doesn't make any sense at all.

to restlesscrane7: http://www.drugwarrant.com/articles/...juana-illegal/ ...please, take a moment to actually read this. It’s just one of the many reasons why marijuana remains illegal: pure profit margins and human greed. Honestly, it’s much easier to throw out opinions when you hide behind the "I don't know until I try it" excuse to sound objective, but subjectivity doesn't actually help a debate when you have zero firsthand knowledge of the subject. Constructive criticism is always welcome, but only if it's rooted in actual facts.

As for my own experience—and I’ll be blunt here—I’ve been smoking weed almost every day for nearly 15 years. I’m 31 now, and (prepare to be shocked) I managed to graduate without any issues. Good grades, good behavior; clearly, the weed didn't ruin my academic career. I have a steady job (I even worked various part-time gigs while in college, and again, no issues there), and I am physically, mentally, and spiritually healthy. And yet, according to certain people, I should have been a total junkie by now, or under constant psychiatric supervision, or some other catastrophe. Ultimately, it comes down to the individual and, in my case, moderation. I don't light up a joint—or two—until I've checked off every single one of my daily responsibilities. For me, it's about chilling out and socializing (and occasionally managing my hyperactivity—aha! There's my one little flaw, damn it!). Once I do, I have no desire to do anything other than relax and have fun. So, duties first, then the greenery, and that’s how I manage to live a perfectly fine, happy life. 😁
