So, having tried several different methods, (ash beds in a water pipe bing the favorite) SWIM finally decided to try the GVG. There is really an amazing difference in the lucidity, depth, ease, and intensity of the experience. SWIM was rather resistant to the idea that there was such a superior method to the machine or the ash bed, as he had experimented with careful attention to detail and technique... BUT he has been proven unequivocally wrong! SWIM really thought he had a rather good grasp on the DMT experience (this is not to say that he had approached "understanding" it, but he had reached a point in which he had learned to let go and be a good observer of the experience.) The GVG is far and away a superior tool. SWIM's next step is to try and overcome the sheer astonishment and amazement of the new landscape that the GVG has made available.
SWIMS first two journeys with the GVG were spent in complete and literal jaw-dropping shock! Like a child, continually thinking what is that? How could that be? The entities actually found it quite funny that SWIM would catch himself in these states of awe and try to "let go" and stop the analytical process. They seemed to really understand this tendency and assured SWIM that this was an important step in their communication.
SWIM was reminded again and again that he is just a child in that realm, and that understanding will not come in ways that he might expect.
Overall, the experience is far more fleeting than those SWIM had learned to incorporate via other smoking methods, yet it is CLEAR, to SWIM's mind, that this (GVG) is the way it is supposed to be done.
If you are on the fence at all, regarding the GVG, please try one out. You may be missing more than you think.
A big THANK YOU to all those that helped spread the news of the GVG in a mature and informative manner.
SWIM just didn't know...
There exists precious little outside that in which you believe, and thus choose to see.
