The Guild?

[vitriol]

Hello,

in couple of topics on Salvia plane there was mentioned The Guild, so I'll post my question here. Well, please can anyone tell me: What is The Guild?

I don't get this? Who is/will talking? Who makes that guild? I can see that you have degrees (in one topic you mentioned "neophyte"), so that means that someone must give that degree to another person. Where did you get authority for such things? From "other dimensions" maybe? I still don't understand, maybe because my English is so bad, but that looks a little bit wierd to me. Please enlighten me.
And are you serious when talking about Wizard of Ozz and Pink Floyd rituals?
Newer heard about or even think about that sort of rituals :? . Well, I think that I'll continue traveling the Salvia realms on my own. There is always Green Goddess to lead me. Maybe we meet somewhere there. :wink:

Oh, we have no authority, that's for sure. And no one looks up to us, either.

Every trip into salvia space is personal, just like every birth and death.
 
Btw, ay no attention to the dwarf behind the curtain. - wink-wink, nudge-nudge.... -

"And are you serious when talking about Wizard of Ozz and Pink Floyd rituals?"

I was somewhat serious about Dark Star.  Can't speak for The Guild though.

vitriol: Your english is fine. However, subtleties, such as humor, can be tricky in one's native language, let alone in a second or third idioma....

I've never watched the Wizard of Oz while listening to Dark Side of the Moon. Nor have I smoked salvia in conjunction with either production. But I have seen the movie, listened to the album and smoked salvia.

Years ago, it was apparently discovered that Dark Side of the Moon made an interesting soundtrack for the Wizard of Oz. Years ago I learned that music can be a wonderful addition to the salvia experience. I'm guessing that Pink Floyd would be appropriate for the salvia voyage, even though I've never paired the two.

For some reason, I believe anyone willing to experiment with the Oz/Dark Side/sally combo could be pleasantly surprised by the results. From here I can see the apprehension of veiwing an approaching tornado as similar to what one might feel before embarking on a salvia journey. I also see the act of being carried away by a tornado as similar to being sucked into    salvia space. I see the act of being transported by tornado to mythical Oz corresponding to a salvia breakthrough, and the death of the wicked witch representing the casting aside of fear and ignorance. However, as in the story, that point is simply a marker from which the fantastic journey continues. Smoke sally in Kansas and wake up in Oz........

Not trying to make too much of a joke, but I think I'd get a bad trip if I saw the wicked witch of the west while on Salvia. That, or laugh my balls off.

[lollipop guild]

We imagine the tornado scene as being a time to close one's eyes, but not everyone would agree. Close your eyes to black and white and open them to the marvels of salvia space in technicolor.

Transitions can be scary. That's why humor is sooooo important. Seriously....

Going waaaay off topic.

I'm dying to get drunk and watch the wizard of Oz with Dark side of the moon playing in the background. I want to know what's part of the movie coincides with the song "Money".

I was going to write it in my will that the song "Great gig in the sky" by played at my funeral, but that would be depressing as hell... instead I'll have the song "I got friends in low places".  :roll:

It has been reported that one should start the album/disc? when the MGM lion roars in opening credits.

Fields of Poppies.....flying monkeys........" There's no place like home".....What a movie.....!

"I had to hide behind a chair when the wicked witch showed up.....my first terror..... :shock:

[lollipop guild]

Right on, vitriol.

Btw, there is no monetary cost associated with joining the guild. So far, on-line  guild rep members have taken #'s 2,3,7,8,9,13. I almost forgot guild rep's in training #'s .33 and 1/3. Not sure those two will cut the mustard, but we shall see.

Now then, all you must do to become a lollipop guild member in training is to choose a number. Your guild temporary guild membership card will be sent to you as soon as we receive verifiable proof that you are no taller than 1.35 meters.....

If you are over the height limit, the use of an anti-rack might tighten you up enough to get in under the wire, so to speak. However if you are too tall even after losing a few cm's, the guild might not be for you. Obnoxiously tall guildsmen are never promoted to higher office, nor will the members of the lullabye league have anything to do with oafs or lurches during our mixers, so you might be sol with the ladies as well....

That would leave entheogenic work from your own home and sending back trip reports as your only option. I guess we wouldn't be too disgusted aling with a tall-ie if we really didn't have to look at you much....
