I love Robbins. Check this out...
A few years ago I read Villa Incognito. I was left unsatisfied by this. It is full of shamanic references etc. I read it long before I found DMT.
The day after my first spice trip, holes in the story of Villa Incognito fell into place, years after having read it.
I never understood the significance of why the main character had a chrysanthemum seed pressed into the roof of her mouth as a baby.
It was only after reading The Spirit Molecule that I learned that the Pineal gland starts off in the roof of the mouth and after my first spice trip, I encountered the chrysanthemum.
The pennies dropped, it was amazing.
Peace!
Peace in mind, Love in heart
