  • the threshold makes me afraid because the body high of the seperation is unfomfortable and if there were anything better to describe this i would but Buzzy as a mutha*&^%%

  • My friends recorded me two of my three trips, I was upset at first, but when I was like "okay I gotta see how stupid or weird I looked" We went to watch the first video and it played video and audio for about a minute and then right when i started screaming "oh my god, oh my god..." (still not sure if I believe i god)the video part of the footage halted and you can only hear screaming and moaning. The next time about 3 months later, the same thing happened on a different friends cam...

  • Wise words indeed, your video is full of insight and useful info about this staggering plant... one small gripe - the video is way too short, more please. And kids, please treat Salvia with great respect - if you take it for a 'laugh', stick a camera in someones face, and ask stupid questions like "how do you feel?" or "are you ok?" you will absolutely ensure they have a very unpleasant time. And if you think thats amusing, you are not ready for Salvia - she will bite your ass, bigtime...

  • yep, ego death. I died on 3 hits of lsd, now I doesn't exist ;)

  • accurate and insightful. thanks for the upload.

  • its the fear of death of ego!

  • You have earned my respect! Oh wait. . . I'm from [THE OTHER SIDE!]

  • that so damn true. when i tripped i swear to you i thought thats how the world just was. i forgot EVERYTHING. even my name! and the fact that i though this was the normal way of life is what made me tripp bad because it was so chaotic, and when i started to come-too it was amazing, like opening your eyes for the first time

  • You have died. We have all died. Death is an undulation of consciousness. How would you know your alive unless you have been dead? That is why you know. We are so attached to this world that leaving it and seeing other realms scares us. We are so attached to ourselves that it is frightening to find out that you are not you. Salvia shows you this and if you are not prepared to see the truth, what you will feel is pure fear because of your resistance. Let go and see how your world changes.

  • @Gorham31 really well said.

  • while still just having chewed a few leaves, i can easily say that salvia has the most world and self shattering power of anything i ever tried. lsd, psilocybin mushrooms, etc are NOTHING compared to salvia :s they are like a ride on a kiddy fair while mum is holding ur ice cream, while salvia is jumping out of a plane hoping ur parachute won't fail :p

  • this is totally the experience i had. i had hppd for like a month after i got the full effects, and man it was really rough. i couldnt even smoke weed, the experiences would cross over and i would get panic attacks. i remembered saying, 'please don't take me, pleaseeeee, then i started melting from my right. i almost ran out of my room screaming, i taught the 'being' was going outside to get my sister and mom, but i shortly snapped out of it and convinced myself that it was all in my head.

  • @wetim99 wow.

  • when i did salvia for the first time i did it by myself i was 14, i sat down outside in my backyard under my tree indian style, i lit the bowl and tried to take the biggest hit possible out of my bong, i remember felling like if i was going to die and tried to hold on but my mind was far past the point of return. blacked out and could only rember spinning, changed me for life, loved this video really informative

  • I tried salvia 10x in a proper setting for my first time and as I exhaled I felt nothing...and suddenly I no longer existed, but only for a couple of seconds. Then I experienced this sense of dread and felt my office chair folding away from beneath me. I heard/saw/was the words "this is for them"...you hit the nail on the head, I felt like an intruder. I sort of leaned out of my chair and fell on my bed and I began to feel as if the bed were about to do the same thing, but it stabilized.

  • "reality" is a term you despise...what a twat

  • Last time I tried, reality was ripped in front of me, I felt another world beyond. I was started to get transported from my toes up towards my head.

    But my mind couldn't let go, in the last second it was so afraid of never coming back, that it stepped in and I regained control. It was sort of a subconscious reflex.

    I decided I wasn't yet ready for salvia. It was two years ago, soon I'll try again. Thanks for the helpful video!

  • Thank you for making this video, more people need to see this and start treating Salvia with the respect it deserves.

  • excellent! I always thought the agent working in salvia is the essence of fear-emotions per se. But you put it right,it´s a forced reaction to the unknown.Hit the spot!

  • what site did you read this from

  • @chuckwier The contents of this video are based on personal, subjective experience. YMMV.

  • @chuckwier what is YMMV?

    

  • Well said!

  • :p had to make another comment to continue , anyways so when i saw this kid load up a bowl of this strange stuff and take a huge rip he just seemed like he lost it his eyes got huge and he did not cough he blew out the smoke and just started to stare at the ground and instantly was like drooling all over himself lol i was instantly like fuck that not to mention he was twitching and all kinds of spasims n shit but he really wanted to do it and i guess liked the whole experiance i jus supplied him

  • well... im not sure on dmts legalality in certain places but hell would you not masturbate if they said it was illegal? anyways salvia is definitly illegal in certain places like here in oklahoma although i know plenty of places that dont care and still sell it (mostly chinxy cornor stores) i think it mostly is like to do with how you said people are underestimateing it i use 2 sell pot and still smoke it so i bought some and sold it to potheads who told me they wanted some so..

  • It's great to see that this inspired such a discourse. Thanks to all who have posted. The posts I've read hear really expand upon my little warning/explaination in ways I couldn't have. Intelligent exploration of mind and all it entails will surely lead us to some very useful knowledge. Thanks again.

  • so should i smoke some or not..?

  • @willpower189 I don't know you, so I really can't say. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

  • i agree with sfdm i have tryed dmt and after this video im grateful on how you explained it dmt was wayyyyyy to much of an onset rush for me but the afterglow was amazeing like you said it is like an awww of wonder after you just let go and find yourself and i would probley not do salvia now but i do have a question what is more potent salvia or dmt in your opinion sir?( (btw i did dmt from the coloradoe river toad bc i couldnt get mimmosa off the net back then....)) i also own thespirt molecule

  • @skullface405420 Technically Salvia is the most potent naturally occuring hallucinogen, the active dose is down there in the micrograms of active compound. I won't discuss DMT here, as it is not legal to obtain outside of the brain, but Salvia is VERY strong. As strong as anything I've come across (take that as you will).

  • By far the best advice on SD bar none. I went through a death stage and can relate to what he's saying. Words in a sense are to weak for the actual explanation of what anyone is to expect on their SD ride. NIce talk though I do say. Salvia is no joke folks, weed talk is like baby food when you start to even compare experiences. Salvia shows you that there are things in this world, oh there are, that can cut the tape on your reel for however long it wishes. This ride is what it is, A Ride. 8

  • lsd is the best but there aint none around...what if i took a little hit of salvia would i still fall into that scary ass trip that 1000s of people do?

  • @N1ck1Sk123 One "little" hit, and I mean tiny, probably won't rocket you through the membrane, but two or three steady controlled inhalations will likely take you further than any other psychotropic I know. Not to be taken lightly. This is not a spiraling introspective trip, as much as a shattering of all that can be termed "reality". Not to be taken lightly.

  • @raltenbach thanks man...i smoked 5x and i gota say (why do people buy this)ha it make you feel like shit..i laughed the very first hit..then i did more 3 days later and i just felt like ass

  • I've never had an experience on Salvia like those "funny trips" we can find online. It was always good - a celebration. You just have to be in a normal mood, with one or two true friends (not those idiots that start laughing) and let go. For me it worked best in contact with the nature, but I had no problem when I made it at home.

    By the way, turn off that cameras and keep it personal. You can be more than a 15 minute fame seeker.

  • @andrefreakincreator Not out for my 15 minutes, just posted this to educate.

  • @raltenbach , yes, I've understood that. I was not talking about you. Again, as I said: "Thank you; this is a really good video! Spread this out."

  • Thank you; this is a really good video! Spread this out.

  • i heard salvia is supposed to be your biggest fear being triggered

    its kind of true when i come down if im alone i feel like someones watching like the dark is waaay scarier

    although if i hadnt smoked the salvia i would be fine

  • Is this FEAR response similar to say the rush (onset) of a big heroin/narcotic injection for first time users?? The feeling of something terribly wrong.....dread.

  • @smallpeckerman Can't say, as I avoid all narcotics, but I think it's a safe bet to say no.

  • My first experience last night seems to be completely different from what ive heard from others. I was laying on the grass, eyes closed, i felt i became one with the entire world, and that there were these pages slicing through my body, the earth, everything, creating the book of life. when the comedown was soon approaching, this book fell off the bookshelf, in which a higher being (in human form) placed it back on the shelf of the "universal bookcase." upon opening my eyes, i saw a silouhette

  • @skatermagic07 of God in the sky above me, which quickly faded and i was back to normal. i found this to be a rather beautiful experience, and only felt fear for about a second.

  • i will never do it again.. i literally spun around into another dimension.. a demon was pulling me down into this black cyclone and i believed 100% that i would never see my family or friends again. scariest thing ive ever done!!

  • I had a salvia trip and in this trip i was saying to my self "save the human" and destroy the goverment" as we do not need to be told how to act, what we do, what we chose to do, this herb is the best way to learn about your self, i lost all conection to my body and it felt like i had to learn a lesson in order to have it back, we take things for granted in this life and sadly we suffer for it... let all make peace and live in harmony!

  • When I take salvia I feel like I am the only being in existence. There is first the panic, then the sadness of having left behind my old world, and then I begin to wonder if there was ever anything else beside this state of oneness and Singularity. There was no relations, no love, no hate, no fear, no desire, no identity, no self, there was only this feeling that "I am everything." When I come down, I feel like I am being dishonest with myself for believing I am seperate from anything I see.

  • I always halt the experience before i fall off the edge... i dont exactly panic, i just... remind myself that i am me and that nothing will change that... and then i come back to the reality in which we are all familiar, i dont want to but i cant seem to help the fact i do this : (. Thanks for the vid, peace.

  • You nailed spot on when saying we were visitors.

  • very nice video, guy is speaking the truth. salvia brings this to me. unfortunately, i can't let go and i just can't imagine how i could... it's not easy to watch the proccess of having yourself ejected from reality or "discovering" that you were never really part of it. this is the worst feeling i had experienced in my life, nothing comes close to that.

  • Never again will I do Salvia, have done it once and it was the worst experience I have ever had.There was nothing spiritual or beautiful about it. It was disgusting, gross, and made me feel used like somewhat of a cheap hooker. Salvia is like the meth of hallucinogens.Smells like shit, looks like shit, and tastes like shit and after you take it you feel like a total piece of shit.If you ever want to really hallucinate and have an out of body spiritual experience just buy shrooms, well worth it.

  • dude..just brilliant...this describes a salvia trip exactly

  • Great commentary. I don't even get the trend of "youtube researching" people getting high before trying a substance. What will watching a clip of people vacantly staring into space teach you? There are a lot of balanced and informative literary and web sources that will explain the history of the substance you are going to try, its effects, and how to properly prepare your mindset beforehand. You MUST respect the process and the plant if you want to get the most out of it.

  • having done salvia and ayahuasca, salvia is a nice little trip and aya kicked my balls around my ears but salvia except for the horizontal gravity i always seem to get, showed me some cool stuff..aya on the other hand killed me and when i woke up on the other side, left me without a body for 8 hrs...try crapping without a body, its hell!!!!!!

  • Never experienced salvia before, bet its pretty intense. wish i knew where to get some here in Virginia. all of our smoke shops don't sell it anymore

  • see the world through yous 3rd eye so to speak, and not with your 5 senses is not dieing you just lose sight of the space/time patterns that cause u to believe that u r an individual.

  • Your so right

    This substance need not be feared but respected in every way cause if you dont it will quite ltteraly destroy you during your trip. Ive done it once and ive been contemplating how to do it again. Once you get to the threshold you must be ready and calm. You need to understand your self dies completely once youve passed the threshold. Embrace it. Dont try to turn back because it really is impossible. Just take the ball and run with it. I think im ready to go back.

  • Very well said! 5 *s

    As with all strong hallucinogens, your knowledge of the substance and your mind-set going into the trip will greatly effect your experience.

  • wow, well said

  • @michelvec I agree.

  • i didnt really find salvia that scary the thing that got me was the short onset and coming up period but i didnt really have any fear i was just kinda chillin

  • FINALLY......an informed and informative

    video and someone speaking who is

    intelligent!.......I agree, this vid should be

    AT THE TOP....before stupid vids like

    "gardening on salvia" and stupid teens

    giggling and acting like morons.

    salvia is not a GAME.......wake up!

  • @becktorkelson No joke.

  • True, thank for reassuring me that my trip was normal and I'm not crazy.

  • When i did this, I was first smoking cannabis. I did not know that i was going to do it either haha. I was ripped beyond what i had ever been, due to not smoking for a long time and the high ass altitude in colorado (compared to socal lol). So after i was stoned out of my mind my cousins friend told me to take the last his of greens. it was salvia. all i can say was it was insaine haha i would have liked to know before hand that i was doing it so i had a bad trip. long comment but yeah.

  • Comment removed

  • thankyou very much , you put it into words, peace

  • The "normal" world experienced by the sober mind is made up of spiritual energy which is experienced by the sober conscious as vibrating at very slow rate.

    Everything you sense is made up of spiritual entities. Salvia allows your consciousness to experience / vibrate at the same level as these spiritual entities.

    It is at this point you realize you are part of these spiritual entities You are one with them.

    The sober reality is an expression of love...

  • Batfly, reality is constant, when on salvia you are looking inside your own subconscious which can be extremely frightening for some, as that is the place many people store their fears. Spiritual entities are made up by humans as is love, although love can actually be experienced. Without knowledge there is no love, therefore before us love did not exist, along with many other things.

  • ...or you've tripped a few too many times.

  • All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

    Arthur Schopenhauer

  • So you're saying that I've tripped a few too little times?

  • Nope.  Thanks for your ridicule.

  • Anytime :D

  • That was the best explanation of this drug that I've heard.

  • Your explanation is possibly the best I've heard. This is sort of how I've explained it to people, as I've done it myself. I did not have a fear reaction though because I went in to it not expecting anything in particular. But I have seen my fair share of people who were expecting things and in turn did have an extremely terrifying reaction.

  • does DMT also make you feel like dying? what would be better to try - DMT or salvia?

  • When you come up on DMT and you fly through the "kaleidoscopic hyperdimensions" the sense of acceleration is so sudden some people panic. Hang on, wait for the breakthrough. Once through, fear is replaced by wonder. Try not to lose yourself in awe, but watch closely what you experience. I can't condone using any illegal substances, but if it's something you plan to do, I recommend reading DMT: The Spirit Molecule by Dr. Rick Strassman, but in this case the map barely resembles the territory.

  • @NomoreTea They can show you similar things, both can take you to the other side, DMT lasts longer, Salvia is legal in many areas, and people have different experiences with both.

  • Nicely explained, thank you.

  • Around this time I started to perceive voices which weren't really there, or were altered versions of voices I was hearing. And at the same time while I was looking at the ground, I started to drift off into 'la-la' land.

    The patterns on the mat filled my whole vision and warped into the strangest patterns. I started to feel like I was looking stupid in front of my brother and he was laughing at me. I felt like I had to break out of this daze....

  • My second trip was a bit more potent than the first time. I took around 3 good hits from it, and held it in as long as I could go without breathing. I had to pack the bong twice for 3 hits to be good enough.

    Now this time was quite a bit different. I had that sort of 'force' holding me down, nothing too serious though. Then I started to look at the floor, which is where it really started to hit me.

    I was outside on the garage with my brother at the time, and he was on the phone....

  • From the amount of stories I have read on salvia, your description seems to be spot on. I just recently acquired some salvia myself, being very intrigued on what I may derive from the experience.

    I must say I was disappointed with what I had. I tried the green packet (which was the lowest they had, 5x I think) and had 2 sessions with it. For the first, the only really noticeable changes lasted a couple of minutes, and strange feelings for maybe another 20 mins....

  • Very informing and useful piece of knowledge.

    I'm going to accept the experience next time, instead of fearing/fighting it.

  • I order some extract and just did a poke the first day with no results...2 the second..so on an so forth until the 4th day. Even thought I knew what to expect, my first thought when it hit was "they will have to take

    me to the hospital." But telling myself that "it will only last 5 minutes" helped...and "this is what you wanted,so enjoy it." I did quality LSD more than 30 years ago, but this was more than I wanted.

    It seems "all or nothing" and I could not titrate the dosage.

  • i know someone who has tried many illigal hard drugs, but hes terrified of salvia. what could his reason really be? last time he tried he explained what happened and it wasnt a scary thing.

  • Just wanted to thank all of you for your kind words. It's a shame that the one and possibly only time in our lives we get to explore a BRAND NEW psychoactive chemical, and most just get scared silly as their friends sit around and laugh. It's sad to see that. To all those out here who are "charting the river" so to speak, we need to present an intelligent and cohesive picture of our experiences so we may learn TOGETHER how to navigate these realms of experience. Thank you all again.

  • I have tried to put what you said in your video in words for a good time now. Trying to explain a Salvia trip is like extremely hard. And the whole "dying" part is exactly what i felt. You have NAILED the definition of a Salvia Divinorum trip.

  • Pushed thru the membrane & Unexpected guests...brilliant mate. Hey just gotta say this was one of the best contextual salvia vids ever made. Thanks for taking the time..and sharing some of the critical insights to be gained.

  • Thank's for making a serious video about this. This should really be the top results as opposed to Gardening on Salvia when you search "salvia"/

  • Well put Sir!

  • Thanks for the insight. Good thoughts.

  • good video. any info we can get to help understand what's happening and control it is a must. thnx.  i will add this to my research
