Daily Cannabis Ingestion as a Cantheist




Daily Cannabis Ingestion as a Cantheist


• In the morning I eat my cannabis butter on toast or pancakes/ waffles. The butter is from the left overs of my vaporizer - both indica and sativa. Relief from a good dose of butter lasts an entire day and commonly a good bit into 2 days. 2 ounces were used to make one pound of butter. This is accompanied by a fruit smoothie.

• That goes with a cup of coffee or tea.
• -> If tea - it will be a red Roobios or Nettles with two droppers of cannabis sativa tincture. The sativa for my current run is grown in southern California organically. It is an outdoor variety and this batch is sans flowers. Stems and shade leaves used provide much instant pain relief with a benefit of a slight pickup instead of a drowsy feeling. This is a nice compliment to the butter helping to stay alert through the day.


• I go to work (walking) and within the first half-hour I am smoking a half gram flower joint and using a vaporizer for 2 grams worth of flower. This accompanies plenty of water intake during the day with whatever various meals. During a typical day I'll smoke 1 - 5 grams flowers by joints, and vaporize 2 - 6 grams. Smoking is limited (by personal preference) to the beginning of the day and the last couple hours of the day. [ One joint may accompany each meal as well ]. Vaporizing is the preferred method (personally) throughout the day due to the fact that the high is much much higher and cleaner. Plus the fact that I am able to reuse the flower later to make butter is a big personal selling point.


• Occasionally smoking hash, using topical cannabis for joints, eating hash edibles, and so on. Even if I ingest a bit of toxins due to combustion the overall benefits of cannabis use not only cancel out negative effects, they are reversed.



This is a look into my typical day. A day of a Cantheist. Every ingestion is spiritual where as I ingest I give thanks and respect to the cannabis. My daily life is a result of developing what works for me in pain relief, spirituality, and career. I have high responsibilities at work and I am a serious professional. Cannabis is to thank and not to blame. If someone is misusing cannabis, they will feel negative results. Abuse of anything is unhealthy. My daily, weekly, monthly, and annual intake of cannabis is significant, but not unhealthy. I stay active and alert. I am willing to compare my intake of cannabis to anybody said to have been effected negatively by cannabis in terms of either schizophrenia, memory loss, attention span, or any previously misconstrued myth pertaining to cannabis use. Laziness and lack of attention are personal problems that can be triumphed with personal conviction and dedication to a higher self - these unsavory personal traits are not caused by use of cannabis.



Blame not. Take responsibility and live the life you deserve.

Explaining Cantheism

Cantheism is a name given to a specified belief.

A Cantheist has experienced their higher power through use of cannabis.

The core belief can be described as an understanding through experience that cannabis is a unique plant with spiritual attributes.







How unique?

Understand we cannot overlook the fact that besides our own human mothers milk, this is the only natural external source of cannabinoids - something we make internally to maintain health.




We do live in a strange time of honoring a racist prohibition of cannabis, something so estranged from the public opinion. This is temporary. The simple fact that information circles the globe in seconds. We as a human society are nothing the same as during the nineteen-teens, twenties, and thirties. Instead of believing prohibitionist propaganda from a competing industry, cannabis participants and non-participants alike are now more easily informed of the truth.

The truth is in you. It is within myself. It is no experiment. It is not temporary. This is truth.


That friends, is all you need.







Start with truth. If your truth is that you are Cantheist - your country, state, city, community all protect your right to freely exercise your ritual of spiritual nature, usually dubbed religion.




Be aware, positively.




Be ready to defend and explain your beliefs. State calmly your truth. Share your beliefs. Include others and be respectful. Religion is not a free pass. It is "God's Law" over man's law. Keep in the back of your mind the concept of karma. Our God given right is to use our cannabis in whatever way spiritually enhances our lives. We are no different from any other religion. Our beliefs are simply not controlled by a central human power. It is unnecessary. Had we lived in any other century within the past forty besides our own - we would not need protection from prohibition. Logic has returned. We are no longer a part of the dark ages. Truth is the people's hands.








But does the man or woman paid to uphold the law respect your religious right?





At the moment - no consistency is present. Most of those who uphold the law are informed only enough to achieve a biased goal. Had they studied properly all of the law of this land - our community of cannabis participants would not be so strong. Their invasive ignorance has bonded us in the process. We've been pushed into thinking that we need some special permission to our religion. Not in this country.

It is we the people - both participants and cannabis non-participants who are currently turning the tide. It's been turning for some time now. Even those who do not partake have to opportunity to respect the power of this beautiful herb.

Power is in numbers, and the numbers are on our side. Religion is diverse and protected.


The United States of America is a "Nation Under God" which provides not designated singular religion but a land of many religions, spiritualities, and beliefs.

Legality is secondary. Do you have the right? Yes, but this is almost of no concern. Why worry about legality of your religion? I always follow one major rule -


Create No Victim



Do you bother others with your ritual? If so - stop - change. It is not a right to infringe on others rights. So if your household and community are well informed and supportive you will have no problem. It is the insincere and the profiteers who give cannabis a bad name from the inside. We must continue to do good with our lives.

All religions at heart teach community respect and duty to God. I can believe in a hundred Gods if I choose, but my belief is that God is undefinable by tangible or intangible limitations. It is not for someone else to determine my lifestyle. I contribute to my community and practice patience to prolong peace. Every day you are in front of a jury of your peers. If they know you to be a good person when someone says otherwise - they defend you. If you practice being a good person, you don't have reason to live in fear.



We are wise not to be reckless.



We are not privileged over other religions - we have chosen to make a devout decision to live life in our specific way.

By the end of the month I will start releasing a video series on my youtube channel about how Cantheism works daily. There are hundreds of preferences and details that differ within the community, yet we can learn from honest conversation how one change can ease our daily lives further than we've known previously. I look forward to sharing and listening with everyone.




Safety first.

A Cantheist is free from the scarring punishment of other religions. We have the knowledge and know-how to improve our lives and those around us every day.





Do we have barriers?




Only those manifested in the mind.
An acute mind creates no boundary.


A actively positive person can't help
but improve their community.




We Cantheists have great opportunity to influence and make positive lasting change every day. It is not only for us but for all who come after. Live the joy of being Cantheist and spread your joy to others - share the love. It is unique. This is our time to shine, show who we are - peace and cannabis, loving people. It is our health, our communion, our sacrament. Through healthful life decisions the inclusion of cannabis allows a peaceful healthy dynamic life.

Purposely Live Mindfully



BLAME!!!!!


Relieve yourself the agony of blame.


To blame is to pout. Learn not to put. Doing so is reliving a memory repeatedly despite disliking the individual memory. It is also more primal as it is yet again showing a distinct psychological reaction of an individual who revisits a moment of feeling the victim.


The only answer is to overcome.


Meditate and contemplate blame. It is an ugly feeling, somewhat like a short-circuit in the brain. By staying mindful we stay in the realm of the higher power where negative energy does not exist. Doing so relives current and future stress. Instead of blame we accept and forgive. This is how we move on to something better.


Blaming is like letting an enemy win.


Free yourself. Cannabis sacrament helps.

Retaliation


Energy is either sent or received.

Mentally or physically makes no difference.

Sending or receiving misdirected energy damages the balance of energy in us.

As destructive as negative energy is, retaliation is as so tenfold. With retaliation negative energy is doubled, sent to another - perpetuating a negativity cycle. As well, the person retaliating experiences the effects of negative energy as it is harmful to anything on any end.





Battle retaliation with forgiveness.





In retaliation there are always two losers,
where forgiveness always yields winners.





Cannabis sacrament teaches us that retaliation is of no use - as if we are in the realm of the higher power the mere thought of retaliation seems excessive.




Learn from sacrament.




Existing with sacrament is a peaceful existence.
