    A demon can make me think i'm sitting in this room while I'm not. A demon can make me think i'm writing this while I am not. But a demon can never make me think I'm thinking something while I'm not.

    colloidal silver & cannabis

    In my humble opinion colloidal silver isn't very healthy for both humans and plants.

    Which of these psychedelics are best in treating depression?

    I would recommend ayahuasca. Not for the drug itself but for the ritualised context in which it is used. It's not likely you will cure your depression by just taking a drug by yourself or with friends. When it comes to therapeutic use there is great need of a ritual and proper guidance...

    Baeocystin subjective effects

    In my experience with P.semilanceata I have come to feel that it's significantly easier to hold a thought, as compared to cubensis species. I think it could be related to the presence of baeocystin. So I want to ask about the subjective differences my fellow psychonauts experience when using...

    LSD body trips

    I :heart: body trips. I find they are more tingling and pulling with tryptamines mushrooms and LSD, and more steady and pushing with mecaline or 2c-b probably because the phenethylamines have stronger noradrenalin mechanisms.

    Spoiler: It's a Bummer

    I think the comparisson of life with a game is easily made because (most/all?) games are modeled after life. The play BananaPancake mentioned is also a "training" for life, especially in mammals. So it would be a matter of opinion or ethics. Going back to the original post: "are psychedelics a...

    Spoiler: It's a Bummer

    I guess it would only be a cheat if there would be an absolute rule-book for living. In a game without rules a cheat is just an allowed shortcut.

    2C-B

    2C-B is amazing. It definitely relates to mescaline in it's energy-driven steadiness. And the body trip :rolleyes: It also leaves more of the ego intact: I would be seeing snakes being drawn in the sky and still not being impaired as to interacting with sober people in the bakery etc. In...

    Studying psychadelics?

    Well, as they are all only models, the smallest unit can be defined depending on the problem. If we are studying the boiling of water we don't need to consider the nucleic forces, quarks, etc. We only need to consider the H's and O's (for H-bonding). Same as for many chemical problems you don't...

    Spoiler: It's a Bummer

    Psychedelics are only psychedelics because of the way we are built. They amplify a circuit that plays an important part in experience itself. Let's say you climb a mountain, either by foot or by helicopter.

    music as a drug & music nazis

    I like what's been said here. I think the elitism, especially in the young years, has a lot to do with identity. You choose music that talks to you and you let it be a part of yourself. I think if you stop building your identity on a specific collection of music the elitism stops. What is...

    some problems of grow and grow box

    Are you sure? I thought it was the oxidation of a more common metabolite. As semilanceata's don't bruise (and globally have more psilo compounds per dry weight) and other non-psychoactive species also bruise. Also, I don't think pure psilo compounds don't turn blue when left oxidating? Which...

    My philosophy

    I am a little bit more sober today. Fantasy may have been a bad choice of word. I actually meant imagination ("fantasie" in my native l.) Lifeforms have evolved imagination as it is essential to understanding causality. There seems to be a correlation between imagination and consciousness: "the...

    My philosophy

    Nothing is explainable. But the awesome thing about reality is that you can fit models to it. Models like the word "consciousness". These models enable us to reason, think, apply dualisms, learn. Maybe consciousness is in its pure essence this act of induction. Consciousness as the perceptual...

    What have you gained from psychedelics?

    I think haven't learned that much that I couldn't learn from life without psychedelics... but that it has been an important catalyst to integrate the things that life offers more deeply. I also experienced the importance of these "psychedelic brain circuits" and their role in the sober state...

    My philosophy

    "so without the brain, consciousness is not physical, and thus is not explainable" So on what grounds do you postulate its existence apart from the brain?
  21. M

    My philosophy

    So you define consciousness as an epiphenomene of the brain. I lik to think of it as the thing a machine experiences while working: a complete translation and syntax of its input-output (maybe analogue to graphical user interfaces, but more abstract). Do you think consciousness appeared before...

    Dark Blue, almost black cover on my shrooms,please ADVICE!!!

    The high will be the same with or without the spores. But having them grow until the cap fully opens makes them less potent per weight (but more weight :rolleyes: ). Remember to shit in the woods after eating those spores!

    First time shroom trip advice wanted

    IJC's advice is good advice. Some notes from my experience: 2) Wet 25 to 35 grams is considered a normal dose. Dry (= they can break) this is 2.5 to 3.5 grams. 3) He should do as less as possibe. He should be able to calmly informing the bad tripper that there is no danger, that he is...

    Look-alikes

    There is no way you could get rid of all potential toxins and still have your psilocybin. If your paranoid about toxicity don't take the shrooms. You have to be able to trust these things. You can't start a trip while examining yourself for intoxication symptomes especially while paranoid.

    Did the use of psychedelics lead to a computer revolution?

    I think we DID evolve our psyche with this technology. What else of a change would it be? Intrinsic brain functions can take millions of years to change trough classic evolution. Our (cultural) evolution as mankind is one outside and around our bodies, and is much faster and dynamic. Even the...

    Tripping on weed

    There ain't no lithium in the brain. Next to the cannabinoid system (and the GABA system!), cannabis also has its effect on the serotonergic circuits. Some articles http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term ... 0serotonin

    Recreational Psychedelia

    If there wasn't any recreational, "feel good" aspect to these things people wouldn't feel compelled to engage in these experiences. I think we can say we all at least "like it". What would be the other use? Don't we also use the constructive, serious approach to feel better in the end?

    Paying for Sex

    How would you define spiritual fulfilment? Is it an epiphenomene of our needs being satisfied? I don't think so... It could be, but it would also apply to eating a sandwich, thus rendering the term semantically useless. My idea of this fulfilment mostly covers the transceding of the self and...

    fundamental question about thc

    I somehow feel like inventing the lie was a crucial step in the evolution of the animal mind. Like using the process of induction, which is basicly a crime against logic. I think we can't be straightforward and honest as long as we suffer from our instincts. But I think that's why you said...

    A thought

    IJC, no one knows how probable the emergence of life is. Earth formed about 4.54 billion years ago. Prokaryotic cells existed about 3.8 billion years ago. Seems to me it didn't take that long... How about virusses? If you read the RNA-world wiki, you'd see that in a loaboratory they have...

    A thought

    Of course most of the molecules denature, but there are still enough left to be found in landed meteors. It's a game of chance. Amino acids and nucleotides aren't sufficient to create life. A living organism also must have a degree of compartimentalisation: a cell membrane, so it can win free...

    A thought

    We as humans are already able to make these molecular, potentially life-seeding packages and send them into space. So it seems reasonable that if there was alien life, they could do the same.

    the "best" diet

    Yes, fructose also enters glycolysis in the third step as fructose-phosphate. While the enzyme of the first step (that works on glucose) is the rate-limiting step (controlling the overall flux of glycolysis). So there is very few inhibition of fructose to ATP conversion even when metabolic needs...

    A thought

    There is a general consensus that some of the building blocks of life came from outer space. Why? Some compounds necessary for life (nucleotides) couldn't be formed by electrical charges in the earth's early atmosphere. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller%E2% ... experiment) They did find...
  44. M

    A thought

    It's not near future, I agree. From this point we can only speculate. But I'm fairly optimistic about it. Life has left the sea before, so why not escape the atmosphere at some point? Be it in a technological way in stead of evolutionary (which is not that different). Also terraforming models...

    Because they failed to adapt in time. Resources are plenty. As long as there is mass there is energy. Btw, consumerism is not all bad. It's one of the main driving forces for technological progress. We wouldn't have the means we have today if people didn't buy all the spin-off shit that comes...

    an inexperienced tripper trying to achieve ego death

    +1 to the above post. Some tips from my experience (take or leave): do nothing. Do not want something. Reduce your activities to simply existing and take it from there. Don't seek distraction (tripping without music in absolute darkness is a plus). Human contact is often very distracting. Trip...

    fundamental question about thc

    I guess it would have something to do with increasing the glutamate mediated recurrent feedback in some parts of the brain. It is believed this feedback is the physical basis of having a thought in your "working memory", as a signal will re-trigger itself so it can be processed. Increasing this...
