Experienced

“I slept my way to the top of the enlightenment ladder.”
There were those gurus who thought The Chemical Buddha didn’t deserve to be called enlightened. They thought he had taken short cuts to get to where he was. By the way, TCB never denied those claims. In fact, he said enlightenment was easy to attain because feelings of oneness were all around us and all of us could partake in them whenever we choose. The Chemical Buddha believed we were the only ones who could separate ourselves from oneness. Oneness was always open and available to being experienced. In the words of the immortal Jimi Hendrix, ‘Have you ever been experienced?’ TCB saw the gateways of drugs, food and sex as just some of the ways to experience the peak that could give you a taste of being all of everything that is.
How do you keep yourself a part from others? What is the cost to you? What is the benefit?
If you see life as a choice, how did your choices get you to where you are now?
