Everything seems extremely bright, including me( the glow you are talking about ) , i think it comes from a high state of thoughtlessness, correct me if im wrong here, extreme sense of clarity. This is one high. At other times an extreme sense of euphoria, and through activation of kundalini an unexplainable increase in energy. anyone whos been meditating for long enough i think has felt these things. I have this friend whos got so good at it through practice, that he just tells himself lets get high and within minutes he's there. Yes i have also partied hard, done enough shit, infact i still do, but natural feels much better. Yes i agree, i have felt it too.

Second of all, methinks with moderation, one can do drugs, AND meditate. Third of all, referring back to moderation, maybe you can meditate too much? Not really, but that's not the point. Lastly, yes, meditation gets you high, and you can direct and focus in very profound and amazing ways, but it's personal strength. I use the mountain metaphor. Climbing up the mountain is hard. You are you. You are the mountain. You are the climb. Not only are you pitting yourself against yourself, you are also the entire concept as well. So sometiems it might help to loosen the constraints, allow the variables, understand that everything dies, but nothing ever truly lives. We just think we do. The drugs are like tools, microscopes, cameras, hammers, nails, shit man they're even shoes if you use them right. Of course you already know this, because you've been there. So we'll leave off with this: Everything is a drug, use language better, share your secret in an ambiguous way which puts the utilizer on the path but doesn't plot the course, otherwise the point is moot anyway. Oh yea, and only communist capitalists who can't figure out how to be hippies sell their philosophies. Hahaha. Go work for the government. Poseur. (oh, nostalgia) P.S. Oh, or be a baker. P.P.S. "Better" is an opinion, Obi-Wan. So is good or bad. Use more effective language if you're in it to help. Get paid! Sorry if that seemed dickish, I'm just sassy! Much love! First of all, come bust.

Methinks you should get real, dude. Peace and mung beans. @Ariel - I would say that the meditation high is cleaner and better in every way. I describe this in more detail on psychedelicmeditation.com from memory. @Chris - I do yoga (not that I am any good mind you) but haven't tried holotropic breathwork. In fact I had to google it, it looks quite interesting. @Stephen - I have done some Qi Gong over the years and I have found it to be quite 'trippy' although that does cheapen that actual experiences I have had, but you know what I mean. @James – that’s the first time I’ve been accused of NOT being a hippy by way of insult, very funny.

I personally get high off yoga, particularly asanas that open the heart chakra. I've also been on a holotropic breathwork high once. Have you tried that? Hey man — I can definitely relate.

In my own meditation practice I've experienced some fantastic highs over the years. They were never the aim though. I've also had some great highs from qigong. So I've had a taste and must say I'm very interested. I doubt I will be able to resist buying your ebook for long :) <abbr><em>Stephens last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BalancedExistence/~3/436616181/" rel="nofollow">How to Make a Realistic Plan</a></em></abbr> Sounds awesome Seamus.
