we have understanding of the totality of the 2nd dimension. the pyramids were built upon our minds, shaped by the hands of consciousness to form a point, just as you would shape clay with your physical hands.

Anyone with any understanding of basic English grammar can deny that what you say is true.

See, here’s your problem. You’re getting “quantum particles” mixed up with free radicals. An understandable mistake.

Yes, a very dangerous cocktail, to be sure!  
This is why you should always check to see how many points your bartender’s head has… and never leave home without an extra tank of antioxidants.

**Question** , don’t make me flog the hamsters to find out what you are pitting. I had to click two links to find out what you could have summarized in the OP.

**Summary:** After laborious research, and annoying loading times, I’ve concluded that **Question** thinks tripping makes one profound. It doesn’t. The giant swirling energy paisleys only take you so far down the path of enlightenment. Crawling on all fours with covering over the windows is one possible outcome. I’d suggest reading a book.

How do you do that? By plugging your wave form generator into the point on the back of your head?

I see **Question** hasn`t filled in his/her/its LOCATION in his/her/its profile. I hope that our paths don`t cross if he/she/it decides to be driving under the influence. I have a rather large SUV and I would hate to get all of his/her/its Quantum Energy all over the grill of my truck.

Why do you need to recharge if you are made of energy?

You know, I hope when I die I don’t discover that life was just one big joke. Because I just don’t get it.
