Hello, i told a few folks i would upload my first book so here it is. This was never really meant for mass consumption but i couldnt turn down a request from any of you good folk. It is my first attempt at writing anything since i left school and it is basically a journal of my first 3 years of dabbling in Magic. A couple of things i'd like to point out first, this tale has contradiction, inconsistencies and some plain good old fashioned madness and delusion. Some of my views have changed dramitically and any conclusions i come to are inevitably short lasting and subject to change. I have removed names and replaced them with letters and hopefully it is still obvious what im talking about. I have also removed dosages, i did this as i am a ridiculous hardhead and i thought that the dose levels are irrelevant. There is a tale near the end which i was going to take out as i feel it might be a bit debauched and isnt the type of thing i would normally publicise on here as im not that comfortable with the idea that someone might think its a good idea, however it is also the one which was most useful in the real world, so i left it in, if it is unsuitable then i will happily remove it. I hope you like it and if it turns out it helps anyone in anyway i will be over the moon. All constructive criticism would be extremely welcome as i can try to apply it to chapter 2. cheers.

Thanks a lot for this. I will start reading it shortly and let u know what I think. The formatting is messed up or something. When I open the file all the text is just squares. Anyone else having this issue ? EDIT Apparently Fox it PDF read doesn't like this file for some reason. It works fine on adobe reader but when I open it with fox it its nothing but squares. I generally use foxit but downloaded adobe to see the result and it works fine. That moment when you wonder if this time you went too far....
Obviously everything discussed here is the fictional accounts of someone with an out there imagination. I mean really could any of these tales be real?

Al-Wasi: Mine opened and opened my mind. Reading it now and enjoying it 3rdI. I'll keep ya posted! JBArk JBArk is a Mandelthought; a non-fiction character in a drama of his own design he calls "LIFE" who partakes in consciousness expanding activities and substances; he should in no way be confused with SWIM, who is an eminently data-mineable and prolific character who has somehow convinced himself the target he wears on his forehead is actually a shield.

So I guess FoxIt PDF Reader just has an issue with this file for some reason. It is my primary PDF reader and works great. However it wont display this PDF properly, so i resorted to using Adobe and it works fine. Im about 40 pages in already and it is a great read. I have noticed a few spelling errors and some names are still present instead of being represented as letters as you said. However still a great read so far... Gotta love DMT journey reports...

I just read a couple chapters and did a skim through as well, and it is quite an amazing tale. I know how DMT can make life exciting again; I was a staunch atheist/materialist as well for most of my life before encountering DMT, but there's so much more hidden behind the veil. Your experiences are extremely interesting, and it's easy to relate to your writing. Your encounter with the grand being repeating, "THIS IS ALL YOU ARE" was awe inspiring. I had a version of that with a great sphinx once, and it is crazy how applicable this information is to daily living and meditation. Not holding any belief too closely, however, is also a great lesson. Thank you very much for sharing. I look forward to reading deeper into your experiences.

Wow. I've only read thru to weekend travels so far but i think it's pretty good I can relate to the part about lsd & shrooms not quite getting you there. I had really begun to think i couldn't experience what others described until i got ahold of dmt. It's the only thing thats ever truely taken me as far as i'd like to go.

Just finished reading this. All I can say is Amazing. I was half way through Inner Paths to Outer Space when I downloaded and started skimming this and I just had to keep reading. Its capativating and beyond excellent. You sir are a brave psychonaut. And I hope one day I can muster the will to indulge the way you have. Great read and very though provoking stuff.

Wow, I will spend some time reading every inch of this for sure, but I have to say thank you. Your writing and style is inspiring, your experiences are glorious from what I've paged through. Thank you for writing, thank you for sharing, thank you for being you. Namaste At the center of this existence, it is everything and nothing, all of us and each of us and none of us.

I am at the halfway point, started reading late last night. I cant remember the last time i read 47 pages of anything in a sitting and the only reason i stopped there is because it was almost 3am and i had to goto bed. Cant wait to start reading the rest when i have time. Good stuff man "Energy flows where attention goes" [Please review the forum Wiki and FAQ before posting questions]

Completed. I enjoyed it all the way through. Awesome journey you've found yourself on interestingly there are a lot of similarities between us. And the part where they took the info from you reminded me you had posted about that in my thread about my dad. Great read, i like how it flowed smoothly between each experience and included relevant info about what you were going through at the time. Would make a cool movie. I picture Morgan freeman sitting in a chair in front of a fireplace narrating. "i rode a dragon!" Hahahaha awesome.

Practically finished it just wanted to say it was really enjoyable, great read your so lucky! I met a guy recently and he also used to be into dmt, we both live in a place where its difficult to obtain materials. But I mentioned the nexus and he hadnt heard of it and I thought oh I need to check it out, see when your not regularly tripping like I used to be I tend not to check this place out as much, used to always check this every day for years so thought id check it out and got this story and the other guys, the doom merchant one in quality experience reports, just two amazing storys so glad to have checked back in, will share this with my friends if you dont mind great read making me plan out a trip in my country of residence in a few months for acacia confusa as so far Ive had no joy at all, searched for months and no joy. Did find some mushrooms but theyre not strong at all but was nice to be picking in a foreign land, new experience but yes the trees are the main goal obviously, been years and storys like this that remind you, the whole, how could I forget THIS!
