RE: Metaphysical Mycelium Mushroom Minds Of Planet Earth ... And The Space Time Continuum!
this is an epic post about an incredible subject. every time i think, observe and read about mushrooms i am completely blown away and inspired!
One mycelium brain was observed to be the size of 1,665 football pitches and was potentially thousands of years old. Growing and breathing in perfect symbiosis with the pristine ancient forests life and death cycle. Indeed I wonder if this brain can hold memory?
This question that you posted totally blew my mind tonight... If this brain can hold memory it means so much for humanity. Mushrooms are like our waaaay older siblings that have so much to teach us if we'll only listen. I want to ally with mushrooms more and more! One time I sat at the base of an over 1000 year old tree and I felt memories coming to me through the tree. It was the energy field of the tree speaking to me energetically and teaching me. Now I am even led to wonder if the mushroom networks connected to the tree were speaking to me, too.... Gah! Such good stuff!! <3
Hey @mountainjewel thank you for the support and for taking the time to leave such a great comment!! It really is a mindblowing subject, equally it's one that passes most people by. Who would have known that mushrooms could be so majestic!!
It's an incredible idea isn't it? I mean if cells hold memory then it's not too much of a stretch to think the complexification and indeed mult-faceted/functional nature of the mycelium internet brain could hold an awaresness and indeed memory. And just think, the tree and the mycelium have evolved in perfect symbiosis and have been communicating with each other for all that time. Indeed perhaps the nutrients of the mycelium perhaps gifted the tree life in the first place ;)
Certain mushroom spores may have been carried to earth by asteroids from planets destroyed billions of years ago .. I wonder what stories they might have to tell ;) Thanks again my friend
Gah!! love the way you think and thanks for the thoughtful reply. following you now for more..
You did it again! Mind expanded! Lol, but in all seriousness, this is truly epic stuff. It blows our isolated anthropocentric viewpoints soooo out of the water. It amazes me how insular (most) human thinking is. haha it's laughable that humans consider themselves so superior to everything!
I keep coming back to the implications these awarenesses have. It's like once you see something you can't go back to unseeing it. You can't go back to having a small picture about what's going on here. It reminds me of being in the jungle after a night in the maloca after consuming ayahuasca... there is So much going on here beyond our minds... Even reaching to the solar system as you say. Makes like a lot more interesting, and it is naturally and wonderfully humbling. XO ~wren
