    I "enjoy" Salvia. It keeps me guessing, never makes me right, and is greatly humbling. Also fun to be random things and come back to human life and shake your mind in disbelief that you weren't really a mailbox your entire life.

    I loved this video so much. I've been on youtube for quite a while looking through content having to do with salvia, reality, physics, psychedelics, psychology, history, and computer sciences, and yet this video his opened my mind with aw and my jaw was at the ground. The realization I came to when I was listening to this genius was so much greater than any other realization. Keep in mind I've done many psychedelics including salvia. I've never had a feeling like the one I got just now. Now this is just a theory, but what if salvia is GOD. What if that's what happened all the many times religious seers have had visions. Now I know dmt is all over in the middle east and Africa and all the biblical areas. So maybe that's God also, just another emotion or language or maybe just god but not to his full extent. I've never done dmt but I have heard from many people who have done both salvia and DMT, say that dmt is less intense compared to salvia. Obviously dosage matters but let's not get that specific. In general people have said that salvia is definitely more intense and crazy and weird. Obviously it's not very euphoric at all compared to the psychedelics that bind onto the serotonin. Although I have had alot of euphoria from different parts of different salvia trips. My first trip was when I was about 16. I had just started doing acid and shrooms. I had maybe done shrooms 3 times and acid probably about 4 times so I was really new to psychedelics and this world persay. When I hit the salvia extract (?x) I held it in as long as i could. I then began to feel as if a shit ton of hands were grabbing my body and pulling me down towards the grass I was sitting in. The feeling started in my legs almost instantly traveled up my whole body and then engulfing my whole world. I was being pulled into the ground exactly like what you see on cartoons, just like a full on bellyflop into the ground. I even had an extremely detailed feeling of dirt and grass in my mouth as I was falling into the ground. The thing is i wasnt falling continuously deeper into the ground I was literally just hitting the grass and dirt with my face and body and just barely going through the the ground only to be the same distance above it as I was before I got pulled in. Just over and over flipping me through the ground. It got faster and faster. At one point after what felt like 10 seconds in it eventually became so fast that is was continuously flipping me through the ground so fast that is was literally like constant like I couldn't even differentiate the separate times I was getting flipped. It was lik when a fan is spinning so fast that is just looks like a disc that's not moving. Anyways, as soon as I reached what seemed like maximum velocity, I was pulled away from whatever they hell I was falling through. It was like monsters inc when the doors are all hanging up on the rails except instead of doors it was my body imprints pressed through what I thought was the ground like the outlying shape after you take a sticker of the sticker sheet. A silhouette. And the were all hanging right in front of me and I could see straight down the middle of the imprints were I had been falling. And at the end of the "tunnel" was regular vision and reality. It was just so distant that I could just barely tell that it was reality. THE CRAZIEST PART is that when I zoomed out and looked at these imprints on a hanger and I saw to the left of all the imprints a being or creature or something that looked like the silhouette of a human just standing next to me. It was so euphoric. I felt like it was god or whatever people might have thought was god in the past. I felt so honored and enlightened. Apparently my body raised its arms up to the jesus pose just like the statue in Brazil 😂 it was a totally crazy and happy and weird and unreal experience. It was so crazy and out of the ordinary that I kinda just couldn't even think about it. Like for a while. I didnt think really anything of it afterwards for at least 3 years. After doing acid and shrooms alot more and then completely stopping both of those.i didnt even really think about it again until I was 20 about 5 months ago. And let me tell you that this shit is crazy. This shit is the future and is definitely a part of our past. I am a psychedelic pioneer and so are you for reading this.

    Once while listing to a recording of a live trippy Radiohead song I found myself camping inside a tent at a music festival where Radiohead were playing, with my old drug friends, and apparently we were on magic mushrooms. It was ecstatic, atmospheric and MAGNIFICENT.

      Yeah he's not the most eloquent speaker for sure and his thought process is difficult to follow, but there is something there. I'd blame it more on the inadequacy of the English language, and spoken language in general, to communicate ideas that come from whatever the psychedelic space is. He's no Terrance, but that brings me to the question, what does "having a name" have to do with the validity of one's speech? Alot of people we think of as being "great minds" were totally unknown in their lives, they just happen to write down what they thought and we all caught up to them later.

      At one time I was on the left myself, and my viewpoints have not changed much since then, but the left has lost it's damn mind and has been spouting utter nonsense for over a decade now. I can recall being a kid and hearing "be colorblind", and that sounded like a good idea. Judge everyone based on their actions and not their race. Now being colorblind is being racist. That's just one tiny tiny example of how wrong the left has become. I could type for hours on the stupidity coming from the new left. Every time I hear someone from the leftist cult speak now I hear a lie, hate, or an idea that's so obviously wrong it hurts my brain to hear it and I'm baffled at how a human came up with it.
      No, I didn't vote for Trump, although I don't hate the man either. He's certainly better than the literally brain dead corpse the new left installed in their bloodless coup through massive amounts of voter fraud. Look at one of the hottest things happening now, the Rittenhouse trial, to see how crazy the left has become. An underage teenager goes into a dangerous riot to try and do the right thing, was assaulted and chased by insane lefties, one of them a damn child rapist that just got out of prison, tries his best to not shoot them, is forced to do so, and the left takes the side of the violent rioters and the child rapist. "News" organizations like CNN repeatedly lie about the case and say stupid shit like "he's a racist and this is about race". Nothing but white people were involved. How can anyone hear that and not have their head explode if they believe it?
      So yeah, the left is insane. They're not the left I was a part of. I want an end to American imperialism. I want our military bases on foreign soil shut down. I want no use of our military unless it's in our defense. I'm for free speech, which used to be a central tenet of the left and it was the right that was for censorship. I stand against racism, not just white racism, all of it. I'm for the working class and against the greed of the massive corporations. Things like that are what the left used to be about, now they push things like CRT and silence any dissenting voices. They are now the establishment and they're tools of those huge corporations. According to the insane lefties I am far-right, but I didn't move, the left did. I fact the left isn't even the left. It's moved in it an area that should have it's own name.

    There was a very strange feature in this case, strange because of its extremely rare occurrence. This man had once been brought to the scaffold in company with several others, and had had the sentence of death by shooting passed upon him for some political crime. Twenty minutes later he had been reprieved and some other punishment substituted; but the interval between the two sentences, twenty minutes, or at least a quarter of an hour, had been passed in the certainty that within a few minutes he must die. I was very anxious to hear him speak of his impressions during that dreadful time, and I several times inquired of him as to what he thought and felt. He remembered everything with the most accurate and extraordinary distinctness, and declared that he would never forget a single iota of the experience. ‘About twenty paces from the scaffold, where he had stood to hear the sentence, were three posts, fixed in the ground, to which to fasten the criminals (of whom there were several). The first three criminals were taken to the posts, dressed in long white tunics, with white caps drawn over their faces, so that they could not see the rifles pointed at them. Then a group of soldiers took their stand opposite to each post. My friend was the eighth on the list, and therefore he would have been among the third lot to go up. A priest went about among them with a cross: and there was about five minutes of time left for him to live. ‘He said that those five minutes seemed to him to be a most interminable period, an enormous wealth of time; he seemed to be living, in these minutes, so many lives that there was no need as yet to think of that last moment, so that he made several arrangements, dividing up the time into portions-one for saying farewell to his companions, two minutes for that; then a couple more for thinking over his own life and career and all about himself; and another minute for a last look around. He remembered having divided his time like this quite well. While saying good- bye to his friends he recollected asking one of them some very usual everyday question, and being much interested in the answer. Then having bade farewell, he embarked upon those two minutes which he had allotted to looking into himself; he knew beforehand what he was going to think about. He wished to put it to himself as quickly and clearly as possible, that here was he, a living, thinking man, and that in three minutes he would be nobody; or if somebody or something, then what and where? He thought he would decide this question once
    for all in these last three minutes. A little way off there stood a church, and its gilded spire glittered in the sun. He remembered staring stubbornly at this spire, and at the rays of light sparkling from it. He could not tear his eyes from these rays of light; he got the idea that these rays were his new nature, and that in three minutes he would become one of them, amalgamated somehow with them. ‘The repugnance to what must ensue almost immediately, and the uncertainty, were dreadful, he said; but worst of all was the idea, ‘What should I do if I were not to die now? What if I were to return to life again? What an eternity of days, and all mine! How I should grudge and count up every minute of it, so as to waste not a single instant!’ He said that this thought weighed so upon him and became such a terrible burden upon his brain that he could not bear it, and wished they would shoot him quickly and have done with it.’

    When people talk about being guided by some disembodied voice or entity I have to wonder, are they just insane? Are they atributing meaning to random events, or are they onto something? My question is if the supernatural exists and entities guide us or God whispers to us, why all the subterfuge? Why do things in a way where doubt can be planted in the mind? If my friend wants me to come visit, they say just that. They don't leave little ambiguous clues around or hint at wanting me to visit.

      THE VEIL exists because nobody WANTS to come face to face with God. And they don't want plainness in their direction; they want it to be vague and ambiguous, so if they don't like it they can simply interpret it a different way. When you become more honest then things become clearer for you...

    I'm only at 8:12 but the thing that stands out to me is that everyone who's experienced this drug says the words,"scared the shit out of me." Why on earth would you do something if it could possibly scare you to death? I may try shroomers or payote when it comes to psychedelics but still haven't at my age. I fear acid, it's said to be a real mind opener, but from what I understand, windowpane is just arsenic dripped onto paper. Plus I'm a person that used to climb tall things like bridges, so I'm afraid of doing some drug that takes over and you have no control. God forbid I think I can fly!!! I used to work at a shop in CT. I'm aware of my surroundings. There was a clearing out back in the woods, a peaceful little patch of grass. I noticed these large red topped mushrooms. I've always been intrigued by the power of these seemingly harmless plantlife.I noticed that bugs were eating them. Many shrooms are deadly poisonous so I didn't take any chances. I kept an eye on them from day to day. I noticed that a deer had come during the night and ate some of the biggest one. I laughed at the thought of some innocent deer running through the woods tripping its ass off. I have not tripped to this day and only drink as a habit. Meth is a huge problem all around me.I will not be joining that club.
