Excellent work by @artofmaquenda, here cropped tightly from the original. Who has got their meditation game this on point? 🕉 Who can behave this way in real-life situations? - - Sometimes others are angry, or their anger is close to their surface, and so their dealings with us are presented through thinly veiled states of anger, despite their best intent and even their conscious intents. The subconscious is angry, and so it snarls right through the intent that can only ever veil the subconscious energies. Because those deeper energies are the more powerful force, the nastiness shows, the quickness to frustration, the antagonism of others that is really the antagonism toward themselves. - - The hardest part of these situations is not responding to them in kind, from our own angry subconscious energies that recognize themselves in the ways of others and erupt out of our depths to meet them. War is hell, but war is easy. Know what you are. - - #art #meditation #visionaryart #scifiart #fantasyart #illustration #artwork #digitalart #sciencefictionart #scififantasy #psychedelic #illustrator #anger #calm #calmyourmind #calmness #mindfulness #yoga #yogainspiration #rage #emotion #emotions #artistsoninstagram #artist #psychedelicart #mindful #psychology https://www.instagram.com/p/CRXT3ykJm-c/?utm_medium=tumblr

Carriage, Release, Mach 1, Mach 2, Mach 3. The Sky is NOT The Limit! - - Yeah, yeah, "billionaires in space." But also, a very particular vision, executed at great cost, over a 17 year period, including the cost of one test pilot's life, a pilot who no doubt wanted to achieve greatness for more than just billionaires. Right now the flights cost $250,000, but how low will the costs get 20, 40 years from now? Will guys like me get to go on a rocketship for a year's salary in our twilight years? Yes please! - - This is not the story of one man (Richard Branson), but a triumph of pilots, engineers; and scientists. Congrats world!

"The Great Turn," by @alexgreycosm, slightly cropped. Visit his page for his thoughts on the piece. For me, it reveals the spiritual capacity within every one of us, to reach toward enlightenment and inner peace, or descend toward mental catastrophe. ☯️ From either point there is the promise/threat of transformation. Being humble and accepting this reality, can be a powerful reminder, a force that keeps your energy channelling to the proper side. - - - #alexgrey #cosm #chapelofsacredmirrors #tool #toolband #fearinoculum #psychedelicart #psychedelic #visionaryart #artwork #fineart #painting #spiritualart #scifiart #fantasyart #scififantasy #scifi #sciencefiction #art #psychology #arttherapy #mentaltoughness #depthpsychology #carljung #archetypes https://www.instagram.com/p/CQeIkhYpseV/?utm_medium=tumblr

4 years ago. 😇 I'm much better now. 🙃🥊 - - - My biggest flaw in this vid is that my jab hand returns too low in the guard, leaving my head's left side exposed. 🤓🔎 - - - #boxing #muaythai #kickboxing #martialarts #mma #mmaworkout #boxingworkout #martialartist #thaiboxing #kickboxer #boxer #karate #combatsports #mixedmartialarts #punch #punchingbag #punching #combo #combination #ufc #karatecombat #k1 #bellator https://www.instagram.com/p/CQEdvamps47/?utm_medium=tumblr

Please reserve your thoughts until listening. And Holy human-cow! It's the longest episode of #MeClickingRECord yet! It's part deux of #MCREC's discussion of Human-Animal Hybrids, and we're focusing on how to satisfy the criteria for having a Soul. - - - I talk about the hesitancy of mainstream media to report on human-animal hybrid experimentation, share a surprisingly accurate article from infamous conspiracy theorist Alex Jones's "prison planet" publication, follow up with NPR's take on the same subject, discuss one of the best Star Trek episodes of all time (regarding the nature of 'what beings have souls'), reminisce about doggies, speak out against the Communist Party of China's organ harvesting of (Falun Gong) political prisoners, and much, much more. - - - It's a far reaching conversation that covers a wide, wide range of interesting concepts, bizarre and scary facts, and ultimately aims toward generating more compassion in the world. Special thanks to the Patron who came up with the topic for this episode! - - - #soul #humanity #morals #moral #humans #vegetarianism #vegetarian #science #experimentation #madscientist #scientist #conspiracytheory #facts #news #communism #communist #china #podcast #joeroganexperience #joerogan #alexjones #startrek #compassion #souls #spirit #spirituality #ethics #ethical https://www.instagram.com/p/CORls9fpAm8/?igshid=1mdxtd0xb1qq5

This is (a regretfully cropped) "Albert Hoffman and the New Eleusis," by @alexgreycosm, shared in honor of #BicycleDay (4/19 every year). Read more... - - - As the photo hints, Bicycle Day is not really a day for celebrating bicycles. Actually, it commemorates the day that Sandoz-employed chemist Albert Hoffman stumbled upon the powerful effects of LSD while studying a cure for migraines. He was riding home on his bicycle, as was his way, when things began getting *quite* weird. The incredibly curious mind-altering experience sent him down a path of nobly studying various other drugs now referred to as "psychedelics," but in a professional laboratory setting. (This includes "magic" mushrooms, as he was among the first [THE first?] to synthesize their psychoactive ingredient psilocin/psilocybin and mass produce it chemically prior to federal schedulings). It's impossible to measure how much Hoffman's discovery altered the course of our cultural history - how art and innovation and music changed as a direct and then indirect result, cascading across decades forevermore. Even the most tight-laced, straight edge has encountered some aspect of the psychedelic experience somewhere, in comic books, rock/electronica music, movies, and even inventions. Hoffman called LSD "My Problem Child," and didn't like how it escaped professional study into a nascent public not prepared for the gravity of what it had to offer them. 78 years since his accidental discovery, our society and government are finally mature enough to study it again. But no matter... Life, all in all, is the ultimate psychedelic experience.

This is @ediefalco and I wearing a ton of TV-makeup for #TheSopranos. I got the worst of it. - - - I'll be talking about the Sopranos on an upcoming episode of #MeClickingRECord - Link In Bio. But really wish I could chat about it with @realmichaelimperioli on #TalkingSopranos. I've been getting suspicious letters requesting autographs that all read similarly, so that's one interesting thing worth discussion. - - - #sopranos #hbo #filmmaking #film #tv #television #hbomax #carmelasoprano #carmela #ediefalco #podcasting #production #sag #acting #actor #actorslife #actors #screenactor #tvactress #tvactor #actress #actresslife #behindthescenes https://www.instagram.com/p/CMxRsIuptE4/?igshid=1l0g0dowwvzo0

This is "Z to Zappa", a bit of #digitalart I made and... stored on the ethereum blockchain!? - - You read it right fellow art nerds and artists. Welcome to the cutting edge. You can't call it "trendy" per se because virtually no one has even heard about it yet, but NFTs are potentially the next big thing in crypto and it has a lot to do with the future of art sales. The high res TIFF version of the little JPEG you see before you is up for auction now; built on photoshop with help from the creative commons! (Thank you!) - - Consider learning about how to mint your art onto the blockchain as an original one-of-a-kind digital file or as a numbered edition. It might end up becoming a revenue source for you! - - #ethereum #blockchain #ETH #BTC #bitcoin #cryptocurrency #cryptoart #nftart #nft #nfts #zappa #frankzappa #art #digital #graphicdesign #photoshopart #photoshop #future #scifi #ethereumart #digitalartist #artistsoninstagram #crypto #cryptoinvestor #art #artofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CLpqJ5MJj3x/?igshid=1c68nhb6izygv

Haha, I ran AngelFire websites that looked like this between 4th and 6th grade. - - - I was a super-early adopter of the internet, thanks to my school giving me and only two other students free computers. I ran text and e-dice based RPG webpages and chatrooms, usually themed around DragonBallZ, developing simple math formulas for growing "power level" and calculating damage for different types of attacks and how many times you could use each. I wish those sites were archived, but life is like a Tibetan Sand Painting and that's okay! - - - #internet #websites #homer #homersimpson #simpsons #angelfire #geocities #oldschool #rpgs #dicegames #dnd #roleplayinggames #rpg #throwback #1990s #90s #aol #dialup #retro #vintageinternet #thesimpsons #childhood #earlyadopter #online #cyberpunk #cyberpunk2077 how far we've come https://www.instagram.com/p/CK1tyRdJ6Vw/?igshid=170rc2t809sfp

Journey of the Wounded Healer, Panel III, 1985, by the incomparable @alexgreycosm, whose art helped me navigate this week's free newsletter: "Be As Little Children, Confused All the Time" - - - This week's "Dangerous Ideas" newsletter is about Reinterpreting the Psychedelic Experience. It's Part Two of an ongoing series called "LSD x." This edition is about our Evolving Experiences of Confusion and Comfort, and how our comfort-in-confusion deteriorates as we transition from childhood into adulthood. It's too juicy a topic for a bitesized instagram post, so please follow the Link-In-My-Bio to my free Newsletter on SubStack and read the latest contribution. Enjoy! - - - #alexgrey #visionaryart #psychedelicart #alexgreyart #danecurley #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writing #art #painting #paintings #goodreads #readersofinstagram #psychedelic #psychology #psychotherapy #jung #interesting #interestingart #artwork #shamanism #shaman #visionary #mushrooms #acid #MAPS #psychedelics #psychedelicartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ7edPDpXOe/?igshid=x26v7abxsort

40 pages in and no SciFi to speak of. Cover art doesn't match the first 40 at all. Seems like a slipstream mystery thus far. But the great and powerful Frank Herbert may be toying with my mind. No spoilers please! (This is a fifth edition print from 1972 that I found Free!) - - - If you like Frank Herbert you'll love Dane Curley.
