    My name is Octavio, I am from Seville, Spain. I don't know why but country music and traditional American folk music have always touched my soul. Thanks to listening to a phrase pronounced in the Yellowstone series, I discovered this genius of modern music. Their songs move me, they touch my soul, as if, once, in another life, I had been born there. Thank you.

    My name is Dong-Wang and just a few hours ago my dearest father passed peacefully after a 3 year battle with cancer. Listening to this song on my porch smoking a cigarette thinking about all the times my father had been there when i needed him most. I don't want to do it but I have to Just Let Go. Rest easy pop, I love you.

    Woke up today and decided to kill my ego
    It ain't ever done me no good no how
    Gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo
    In them flowers of light far away from the here and now
    Taking a 49 divine day vacation
    From reality and all else in between
    Gonna transmigrate to my destination
    Far beyond time in an eternal dream
    Am I dreaming? Am I dying?
    Either way I don't mind at all
    Oh, it feels so good you just can't help but crying
    Oh, you have to let go so the soul may fall
    Oh my God, it's so beautiful
    Everything is a part of me
    It's so hard looking through all the lies made of wool
    But if you close your eyes it becomes so easy to see

    From my interpretations regarding the 49 days I imagine it’s a Buddhist reference. Anywho. I hadn’t heard this song in a few years. Always been an absolute gem. In the last year or so I had decided to take the route of sobriety and my mind has finally let me take control of myself. My actions. My thoughts and feelings. I remember shit from when I was a child. Just 2 days ago I spoke with my grandfather about him teaching me to take control of the horses. After that conversation I hopped in my truck and this song came on. After it ended I drove in for almost 4 hours aimlessly in silence. It felt oddly incredible. I’ve never lost myself like that. I felt like my mind opened up. I listened to this song on repeat and I cried happy tears. My mind really opened up. It’s weird what the power of music can do. Sturgill I respect you a hell of a lot. I played it for my grandfather and he said how have I never heard that? He thought it was from the 70s. Anyways. I’m signing off now there’s my thoughts.

It took awhile until I started finding all that I was looking for elsewhere inside myself and seeing it in others.... the song is absolutely incredible and that's what it takes for me to keep right-minded. May the powers that be, whether it's enlightenment or Turtles, Bless you and Bless all the grandpas and those that teach us in the world through their simple statements. The deeper I dig the easier it gets... I'm going to keep digging !

    I did a 5-meo-DMT ceremony about a year ago and this song does a remarkable job of describing something that simply can't be described as there are little if any visuals at a breakthough dose. If you take the hero's journey you will experience death of ego if you "Just let go" and that light that follows the black void is indeed beautiful! It's the most awe inspiring, blissful euphoria you can experience........No longer fear death

  • @theyanfelton
    @theyanfelton 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    The DMT description mixed with Buddhist doctrine is overwhelming.
    “decided to kill my ego” and “gonna break through and blast off to the Bardo” refers to taking 5-MeO-DMT and "bardo" is the state of existence intermediate between two lives on earth. Those who’ve taken 5--MeO-DMT often describe an “ego death” as the most liberating and impactful experience of their lives.
    “Taking a 49 divine day vacation from reality” is an undeniable reference to Buddha. After spending 49 days sitting under a Bo-tree meditating, Siddhartha Gautama became Buddha Gautama; he had finally reached enlightenment.
    “Oh my God, it's so beautiful
    Everything is a part of me” describes the sense of nirvana or being one with everything and is a common experience while on 5--MeO-DMT.
    Prepare for blastoff…
