“Marijuana is the finest anti-nausea medication known to science,

of government interference in the private lives of individuals.
It's an outrage within an outrage within an outrage.”

“One's condition on marijuana is always existential.
One can feel the importance of each moment and how it is changing one.
One feels one's being, one becomes aware of the enormous apparatus of nothingness --
the hum of a hi-fi set, the emptiness of a pointless interruption,
one becomes aware of the war between each of us,
how the nothingness in each of us seeks to attack the being of others,
how our being in turn is attacked by the nothingness in others.”
Norman Mailer

with fertilizers and have greenhouses.”
(Unknown)

The Holy Men (Sadhus) of India
and
Hashish

To Hindus, spiritual enlightenment
has always represented the highest goal in life,
the one thing that gives it meaning and purpose.

Moreover, enlightenment is a state of being
that is in principle attainable by everybody.
The average individual, however,
would need many incarnations to become enlightened,
to see God, to become one with the Absolute,
to merge one's mind with Cosmic Consciousness --
in short, to become holy.

But since time immemorial shortcuts have been available for people
wanting to become enlightened in this life rather than the next.
Those who follow the fast track, mostly men,
are the sadhus, the 'holy men' of India.

For thousands of years they have been around.
Once they must have been more numerous,
but even today there are still four to five million sadhus,
constituting about half a percent of the total population.
Organised in various s ects, they passed on the wisdom of old,
the method of yoga, that is 'yoking' soul and Supersoul together.

The sadhus radically renounce 'the world'
in order to focus entirely on the
Higher Reality beyond.
They abstain from sex,
cut all family ties,
have no possessions,
no house,
wear little or no clothing
and eat little and simple food.

Usually they live by themselves, on the fringes of society,
and spend their days in devotion to their chosen deity.
Some perform magical rituals to make contact with the gods,
others practise intense forms of yoga and meditation
to increase their spiritual powers and acquire mystical knowledge.

For an ordinary human being these 'basic' self-abnegations
are already hard to comprehend.
But almost unimaginable are the extreme self-mortifications
by which a number of sadhus intend to speed up their enlightenment.
There are those who keep their right arm straight up
until it degenerates into a kind of stick.
Some do not sit and lay down for years on end,
or keep silence for many years,
or wear a 'chastity-belt' forever, or fast for a long time...

Most sadhus, however, take it a lot easier.
And for many the main 'self-mortification' seems to be the smoking of hashish.
According to age-old tradition they follow the example of Shiva in this respect.
To them Shiva is not only the Lord of Yogis,
but also the Lord of Hash, the hash smoking god, forever High.
