Hiyall, I tend not to get back here much, but I'm sure that a few of you have been following my campaign for our freedoms. I'm back at it again. This time, we are moving into the endgame... :-) There is a facebook page set up for this fundraiser. In the 36 hours since going live I have been...

Thanks for the positive feedback. All in all, I think the interview went well and have received positive feedback about it. John is actually quite positive about these compounds, although Father Bob wasn't quite so keen. Yes, it is difficult, but if things were easy, I think I'd get bored. In...

I was invited onto the Australian radio station Triple J to speak with to John Safran and Father Bob about the use of Transcendent Compounds for religious purposes. The podcast can be found here and my bit starts 46 Minutes in and goes for about 20 minutes. All in all, it went quite well...

Thanks for the postive vibes. If you are up to it, I would encourage you to do up a submission yourself. You don't need to identify that you are using any of these compounds, but the more voices that we have banging on the drum, the more noise we will make and the greater the chance that we'll...

While I'm normally the most well adjusted and patient person in the room, I can be a right arse without enough sleep. I've been an insomniac for all of my life, so I'm used to not getting much sleep, but if I don't have any I can get seriously grumpy and short with people around the 30-36 hour...

I would suggest an alternative interpretation. I think you have interpreted your vision too literally. The sun represents the Divine Mind. The solar represents the infinite number of places that exist within our local sphere of awareness that are not our universe. Our universe is represente by...

I don't think that the problem is how young you are, but how much you took in your first outing. 11 grams of dried shrooms are more than most experienced psychonauts will ever consume in a single trip. It is far too much for a first trip. Given your first experience, I'd be stunned if your...

It has been a while since I visited, but in the meantime I have written a beginner's guide to safe tripping. It can be found here: http://www.kasarik.com/Beginners-Guide- ... ipping.php Any comments, or suggestions for improvement are always welcome!

Hiyall, As you may be aware, the Australian Government is looking to make the cultivation of a huge number of plants illegal on the basis that they are considered "precursors" to mind altering substances. This is a stupid idea, especially when one considers that DMT is rife througout the...

^ Well said!

Good for you, Echoes! I've certainly cried while tripping. Mostly because of the awesome beauty of it all, but sometimes because I have connected with the Divine Mind and become aware at a fundamental level of all the suffering that is inherent in the very act of being alive. I'm glad that it...

Nitrous Oxide is quite safe to use and there is absolutely no research to indicate that it would lead me to believe that it kills off any brain cells. It has been used for well over a century as an anasthetic (particularly in dentistry) and been shown to be perfectly safe even with moderate use...

Personally, I don't believe that we are being influenced by aliens in the manner that most people would claim. While it might be the case that we are being observed by aliens, I doubt that they are going to allow us to see them, or even more amazingly, to strip one of their ships down and...

Do you believe that only humans are conscious? No. Do you believe that some animals are conscious? Yes. Do you believe all animals are conscious? No. Do you believe all life is conscious? No. Do you believe all matter is conscious? No. If you do not believe in the latter, please...

In my experience, lucid dreaming is can occur spontaneously, or be bought on through an awareness of your waking life that you bring into the dream state. I honestly don't know whether diet, or exersice helps and agree with those who say that mind altering substances are an inhibitor. What I...
