    Matter is energy. This understanding is tantamount to ones liberation from the constraints of belief.

    If you believe this is as dead as we'll ever be, what do you have left to fear? (The answer is: Nothing.)

    I smoke organic tobacco though. For some of us, our physiology is wired such that we must remain as shamans in order to keep ourselves awake and alive. This is the premise of alchemy - an artificial (natural) catalyst can sometimes be ones salvation in a situation where the "natural" body has a stillborn neurology. You don't have to smoke it, of course. The shamans make nicotine tinctures all the time for various purposes. The smoke, however, has a cleansing and purifying property.

    Tobacco is my medicine. It is also the kinkiest mistress. Even the man who is strongest of spirit still cannot break her tantric bonds.

    Anyone that thinks smoking is not bad for them is just deluding themselves. Having said that... If you cross the street a drunk driver could smash you into a protein puddle. SSSssssooooooo........ Which direction do you send your attention??? No easy answers.

    Anyone who is still afraid of death is not very far along in their search for truth.
