I took LSD a few times. I had no hallucinations, but I knew I could not go scuba diving in a kelp forest without freaking out-lol.

I had head trips and on one of them i spent the day in a book store.

On another I spent the night in some girls bedroom in a cabin in the Santa Cruz mountains with her cat-lol. It was a great bedroom as she was very creative, but I never met her.

It was a sort of work party with my class, and we were studying the book:" Irrational man".

Appropriate-lol.

And that cat and I, we were intensely communicating-lol. That was a great cat.

What stuck with me was that I felt I was operating on a higher intellectual level, but don't remember any of it.

I have a similar experience with thinking. I have many minds and it confuses me.

And sometimes I feel I can see my unconscious mind solving problems without me being functionally involved-lol, but I also may just be stoned-lol?

Robert Ornstein in his book the "evolution of consciousness" talks about the many minds. He was a world famous psychologist who taught at Stanford.

He tells the story of a man who raced the Le Mans in record time and he said it was like he was on rails.

He got out of the car and didn't drive the rest of the day.

Ornstein was making the point that he felt the man had raced that course with one concentrated mind.

Ornstein also said, one of us may be a great poet and never realize it.

We know so little about ourselves.
