If you get just a little high then sometimes you can see new and novel connections. Things seem to make sense in different sense, there is ambiguity and everything seems to resolve to coherence.

But this is a very fine line to walk on. You'll also not remember most of these things after you are sober and once you come out of the high you will realize that all those connections were banal, that they just give you an illusion of coherence.

Consider all of my experience, I believe that reading is sober. I read whole of Infinite Jest high and whole I do remember enjoying it a lot, I barely remember what, in reality, I enjoyed.

Not recommend.

when i went through my dude weed phase, a particularly point in my life, i found myself reading much more about books than books themselves, and when i summoned the motivation to try, i would just kind of lose my train of thought and keep rereading paragraphs trying in vain to absorb them. i read david ferry's translation of gilgamesh and the first five books of fagles' iliad like that. gilgamesh worked for some reason, the iliad i felt like i was cheating myself and started over when i stopped smoking. i don't see how people can do it.

Yes, my man. I used to read and write stoned all the time. Sadly I had to give it up due to job searching. If I could I would always read stoned because it increases my comprehension of a text.

I've only tried a few times due to the mind wandering and the re-reading of paragraphs you mentioned. I haven't smoked for over a year but when I did I was doing stupid fuck-off bong hits, if I just smoked half a joint or something it might have been enjoyable

[Anonymous No.14649959]

Poetry and short stories are the best things to read while high, everything else might be too difficult due to the mind fog weed gives me. Anyway, is better listening to music or watching a movie. Coffe or tea is the drug for reading.

I would recommend drinking a black coffee before reading. Not really smoking weed and reading, unless maybe it's a short story but even then it's a worse experience than sobriety.

Although maybe I'm being hypocritical here as I was high when I figured out that The South is a circular, recurring short story intended to be read over and over as referenced earlier in Ficciones.

It's definitely a slower and more tedious process though

If you're reading simply for fun/entertainment yes. If you're actually reading to attain a better understanding of the subject (being enlightened) no.

Weed is a prison that I don't recommend though. Personally I probably wouldn't be able to read anything high.

This. Weed is handy for processing ideas and forming connections (so long as you record voice notes at the time)- but I find it impossible to read or concentrate on anything except listening to music while stoned.

Though there is nothing medically wrong with marijuana, consumption of it for purposes of impression, rather than expression/creation, is conducive toward congestion of one's psykhic space, which is optimal when it facilitates gradual digestion of information, optimally/preferably in silence.

Generally: that which intoxicates/subdues Body, and/or makes it opaque - drains Mind, depresses Spirit, and degenerates Soul.

Stop taking psychedelic/recreational drugs, and impairing your imaginal capability; start becoming the optimal image of your Spirit, and restituting your psykhe.

Small dose, like 0,1ish grams vaped can produce kind of intense focus on what you’re reading. I feel it can add deepness to prose reading experience but i prefer to study and take notes while high. Almost always i get some kind of mini-epiphany when new point of view or inner perspective presents itself. Staggering sense of coherence flows off the pages like water from a faucet and new ideas pop up like daisies in sunshine. Notes kind of makes sense afterwards but they need some sober refining. Good for mindstorming.

THC-induced impairments in cognitive functioning, learning, and
memory are currently attracting significant attention. Indeed, THC
impairs all stages of memory, including encoding, consolidation, and
retrieval. These memory-disrupting effects appear to follow from acti-
vation of cannabinoid-1 receptors in the hippocampus, a brain region
implicated in spatial learning, episodic memory, and memory consoli-
dation that contains a high concentration of cannabinoid-1 receptors
(Puighermanal et al., 2009; Wise et al., 2009). Therefore, THC in the
blood can be detrimental to optimal cognitive abilities, especially at
higher blood concentrations. These adverse cognitive deficits can per-
sist for at least one month following discontinuation of heavy use, but
only minimal effects are likely to persist following a 30-day period of
abstinence. THC is certainly not a “dementing drug” as are ethanol or
the benzodiazepines[...]

Marijuana can impair the ability to focus attention and filter out
irrelevant information. Users demonstrate weakness in attention and
synthetic skills, difficulty making subtle distinctions in relevance and
memory, decreased psychospatial skills, poor mental representations of
the environment, and poor routines of daily life. These impairments are
associated with feelings of alienation and a sense that life is not under
control and lacks meaning. With cessation of drug use and initiation of
psychological treatment, users demonstrate improvement in cognitive
functioning within 14 days of abstinence and function normally at the
end of 6 weeks of therapy. [..]
