It felt clean and clear. Subsequently, the consciousness of those present felt elevated. The audience was seated and filled with joyful expectation.” I have two friends who are really into hallucinogens and I feel I get high enough meditating a lot.  I read about this album where she's just singing devotionally: Kirtan: Turiya Sings ( spotify ). Today I'm listenin...
