English is not my first language, so please bear with me 
Last year, a very weird series of circumstances and coincidences (I won't get into it because it will make my report too long) led up to me getting Salvia. This series of events ended with someone whom I barely knew coming up to me, handing me a vile of 20x Salvia and saying: ''here, a gift'', before walking away. I knew I had to do it but I was not ready. I held on to it as the months passed. In the meantime I meditated and read everything I could about the shepherdess, trying to go into the experience as respectfully as possible.
On a winter night, everything lined up, and I knew that it was time. I was with my tripping buddy, no one else was around, we were both sober, it was a weekend night, and it just felt right. I am usually very nervous about these things, but that night I wasn't. I knew that it was time and it all happened naturally.
I filled the bong with the herb, I looked at my buddy, and I said : ''look after me, I am going in''. I torched the herb, kept it in my lungs, laid back on the sofa, closed my eyes, and waited.
The instant I exhaled, I felt the sensation of being pulled up from the center of my chest. I was blasting through a multicolored tunnel at an incredible speed. Complex geometric patterns were whizzing by me, and the colors were melting in to each other until I suddenly reached the end of the tunnel. I was still floating in the tunnel itself, but I could see what was on the other side. It was a sunny, unbelievably bizarre, cartoon-ish village. It felt like the end of tunnel was a portal in a yellow brick road right in the center of the village. By then my ego was completely gone. I forgot who, where, and even what I was. It was sort of like watching a movie from a first person perspective.
At this point, three beings looked down into the tunnel at me. I don't know if anyone remembers the old cartoon ''strawberry shortcake'', but they seemed to have the same hat as her. They kind of looked like three red amanita muscaria people. They were whispering things to each other, and although I could not hear what they were saying, I understood them. They were saying: ''what is he doing here!? He shouldn't be here yet!''. This is hard to explain, but they did not make me feel unwelcome. It wasn't as though they were mad that I was there, but more as though their world was my real home, but I was here (on earth) for a while for some kind of game, and being back there meant I had failed at the game. The strangest part in all of this is that no matter how unbelievably bizarre this other dimension felt, it felt incredibly familiar to me. So familiar that ''over there'' felt like it was more real than this existence here.
They followed by discussing whether they thought I got the message, or if they should ''take me further''. After they agreed that I got what I needed to get from the experience, I started to come back. I started to remember that I was in my apartment, on my couch, that I was a human, that I had smoked salvia, and that this world existed.
When I opened my eyes, I saw my friend sitting in a rocking chair looking at me calmly, with red beams of light coming out the side of his face. I realized that from his perspective, I was just lying on a sofa with my eyes shut for a few minutes. He had NO IDEA what happened to me in those few minutes. He had NO IDEA that I had just gone all the way to the other side of the universe and back. This was hilarious to me and I burst out laughing. I don't think I have ever laughed this genuinely in my life. It was primal. It felt like the laughter came straight from my soul. It felt like an orgasm of the soul!
After the laughter, I was back. Back from the single most confusing, scary, wonderful, intense, disturbing experience I have ever had.
I am not saying this experience wasn't valuable, but it certainly was not easy. It took me a good few weeks to a month to be back to normal. The night after the salvia, I smoked a joint and that is when the sheer weirdness of my experience hit home. I was afraid I was going crazy because I simply could not accept this as a mere hallucination. I REALLY feel like I went somewhere that night, saw some real beings, and a whole other dimension. I still get shivers just writing about it.
This is the experience that reinforced my faith. This is the experience that made me realize there has to be more than just what meets the eye. Even more so when I talked about this with other people on a different forum - people whom I have never seen or spoke to before - who have encountered the same beings as me during their own salvia experiences. Now there's something that makes you think!
