Attached is a important 50 page excerpt on Harmaline visions & insights from "The Healing Journey" by Dr. Naranjo.
From "Harmaline and the collective unconscious" by Dr. Naranjo:
Quote:The effects of harmaline in the dosage range of 4 to 5 mg. per kg of body weight by mouth are a state of physical relaxation, a tendency to withdraw from the environment, keeping eyes closed and wanting noises and sounds to be kept to a minimum, a certain numbness of the extremitites, and above all, very vivid visual images, which may take
the form of meaningful dreamlike sequences.
In addition to this, about 50% of the subjects experience nausea or vomiting at some point in the session. On account of the symptoms described, it follows that the ideal setting for the use of this drug is a comfortable couch in a quiet, dark environment.
As stated earlier, high does harmaline visions (4 to 5mg per kg) are very similar to Ayahuasca visions, if not identical. Simply by reading the book "Antipodes of the Mind" or the subsection on Ayahuasca visions found here:
"Contents of Visions"

You will immediately notice the similarity of Ayahuasca visions and dreams to Harmaline visions and dreams.
Harmaline is found in a typical Caapi dose in very small amounts, typically between 10 and 30mg. However, THH, the 2nd largest alkaloid in caapi is also vision producing on it's own and acts to "brighten" the harmaline visions in my experience even if harmaline is found in tiny amounts in caapi. Harmine + tetrahydroharmine + harmaline are 3 drugs that are often way more powerful in combination that just one drug.
Simply by reading the rue seed visions in TIHKAL located in the Harmaline section (near the top on rue seeds) will reveal that even harmine + harmaline is just as vision producing in combination at lower doses as what harmaline is at high doses.
Quote:At about 1:45 tinnitus was obvious. At 2:00 precise movements were problematical and nystagmus was noticeable. Mild nausea and diarrhea, but no vomiting. I was sensitive to light and sound, and retired to a dark room. Hallucinations were intense, but only with the eyes closed. They consisted, initially, of a wide variety of geometrical patterns in dark colors, getting more intense as time went on. They disappeared when the eyes were opened. Although the loose bowels and nausea were pretty constant through the first part of the trip, I was not afraid. It was as if the "fear circuits" in the brain had been turned off. The geometric shapes evolved into more concrete images, peoples faces, movies of all sorts playing at high speed, and animal presences such as snakes. It was like vivid and intense dreaming except that I remembered most of it afterwards.

You may remember me as 69Ron. I was suspended years ago for selling bunk products under false pretenses. I try to sneak back from time to time under different names, but unfortunately, the moderators of the DMT-Nexus are infinitely smarter than I am.
If you see me at the waterpark, please say hello. I'll be the delusional 50 something in the American flag Speedo, oiling up his monster guns while responding to imaginary requests for selfies from invisible teenage girls.
