I took all your comments in the previous two topics by heart. Though it over, tripped some, thought it over some more, DMT happened, made a decision, thought some more.
Legalisation is a big issue, EVERYBODY concerned with psychedelics SHOULD put some energy in this. If everybody would do a little something, legalisation would be just a matter of time.
It's a real shame, there are an estimate of 7.000.000 cannabis users in Europe. IF they would ALL unite and demand politics to listen, politics would listen. Considering the lazyness and willingness to relax inherent to cannabis use, I've come to the conclusion that this is not something I am willing to put energy in. At least, not as my main contribution to the psychedelic community.
I have a feeling I'm doing what I can related to the legalisation process by surfing the web and putting information that I stubled upon in places there this information normally has difficulty to appear. Anyway.
Done.

So what then?
Tryptamines and the other.
As a lot of you know, tryptamines differ essentially from other hallucinogens. LSD for example, is not a tryptamne and although the effects are pretty amazing, to my mind it comes nowhere near the experience triggered by a full dose of psilocybin (or DMT for that matter).
If you look carefully at peoples experiences on LSD and tryptamine compounds, you can safely assume that on LSD, very few people experience contact with 'an other'. On tryptamines like DMT and psilocybin, contact with 'an other' is more rule than exception.
Discussion about this other, has been going since a long time and people have different opinions on what this other exactly is. That this other is a very real thing is more or less common knowlegde among heroic trippers. What exactly it is and what message it is, is still very much open for discussion I think.
So what I am going to try, is to create a place on the web where we can collect stories, facts and speculations about the nature of this other.
I've already got hosting going and installed a Joomla version. Anyone who is interested enough in this subject is invited to help
Why do I think this is important (and fun
).
I think this is important work to do because IF there really is a being in the tryptamine trance that we can get into a repeated dialog with, we should be able to learn so much from it.
