Heyyyyy...we got mentioned alongside Erowid...not too shabby.  And the article presents a well written and interesting historical perspective, too! Wiki • Attitude • FAQThe Nexian • Nexus Research • The OHTIn New York, we wrote the legal number on our arms in marker...To call a lawyer if we were arrested. In Istanbul, People wrote their blood types on their arms. I hear in Egypt, They just write Their names. גם זה יעבור

I like Oroc's writing tone. He always knows how to draw you in with his words. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein
"The Mighty One appears, the horizon shines. Atum appears on the smell of his censing, the Sunshine- god has risen in the sky, the Mansion of the pyramidion is in joy and all its inmates are assembled, a voice calls out within the shrine, shouting reverberates around the Netherworld." - Egyptian Book of the Dead

I've never tried 5-MeO-DMT, but the fact that he can describe such a ridiculous experience with words (and do it well!) is immensely impressive in my opinion. Akasha224 is a fictitious extension of my ego; all his posts do not reflect reality & are fictional

His words on 5-MeO DMT are quite compelling. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein

Great read. The Internet is the only place that psychedelics are accurately represented and is the #1 reason for its reblossoming. The only other time they are mentioned is in some negative scare propaganda on the news channel. Finally, people are seeing some truth. --------------------------------------------------*Kash's LSA Extraction* * Kash's Mescaline Extraction*------------------------------------------------------ All things I say are complete and utter ramblings of nonsense. Do not consider taking anything iterated from the depths of my subconsciousness rationally and/or seriously.

To his list of books I would add Pharmacotheon by Jonathan Ott. While it had a smaller audience than McKenna's books it really democratized access to psychedelics in that it stimulated lots of investigation into novel plant sources, something we still see right here every day. Also the BPC seminars in Palenque were semi-underground events that cannot be underestimated in their influence on today's psychedelic culture. The movement was afoot well before the advent of the internet, but there's no doubt the Entheogenic Reformation has accelerated tremendously because of it. I already asked Alice.

It's a typo. He meant micrograms. He's far from a psychedelic noob. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein
