i need to do that as well

i don't mean the hooks, but a vision quest

no no. that's ok. i find that particular rite of passage fascinating

Go do a meditation retreat. You may get visions or just bored I go here www.dhamma.org it is free and your asked to donate after

retreat what ever you can afford. I have had some awesome visions doing vipassana and turned out lots of paintings

Although I go to become enlightened not to get something

I take vacation time to do this, although it is hardly a vacation. You get to go work in all the dark scary blissful corners of the mind

you can't access when in daily circus activities

I have had a few hellish retreats where I felt like I was literally going to die. After retreat how I reacted to things and viewed reality

changed completely...

I've managed courses and have seen how cut off we are from our bodies, totally in our heads

Most traumas, treasures and memories are stored in something like knots in the body

Yeah really hard to see through habits

So the visions come up through the purifying through release of habits and traumas. Some are painful, some blissful and some really really

Boring

Yeah, my question was how to let them go which lead me to Buddhism

along the way I've had some of the most amazing visions...

No need for drugs when you can see reality as it is even if it is only for a moment

There are a lot of meditation centers outside of Buddhism that use body sensations and meditation aid too

Vision quests need mentors and guides so you won't get lost...so be careful

Mind is huuuuge and does not have edges
