Psilocybin Mushroom research by Johns Hokins Medicine

[theshepard22]

Do those phosphorous bearing seeds feel almost identical to shrooms?!

[Gen2pAc]

"by Terrence McKenna..Fortunately he died in 1999.." do you watch you video post editing?? LOLOLOL

[casaresway420]

wow doesnt this guy sound like hes on shrooms? lol nice.

[rocknrollhoocheecoo]

I have picked hundreds of mushrooms even at night on a full moon in the 70's they always grew out of cow manure after a good rain. Mushrooms I can tell you do infact make you clairvoient or able to see around the corner in a sense. Listen mushrooms almost at once make you smarter. You right away assume a much superior sense of being you actually becime smarter you can feel it! It lasts after your little ride slows down and stops. Every time you do mushrooms you get smarter and smarter!All true!

[UTAOUB]

"Suits", as well as "hippie" types like to take drugs recreationally. Remember William F. Buckley? The authorities don't want peopl 2 take drugs Bcause drugs will make them happy, and NOT want to go 2 work, (or pay taxes!) Substitute......breathe in deeply, excercise moderately, take LOTS of showers, (allows your pores to "breathe"), and rest a LOT. (Remembr, depriving people of sleep is a kind of torture....so REST....take power naps!) Go to diffent places..sink in ATMOSPHERES!

[rockero909]

just don't listen to scientists.. we are our own "scientist" the true shamans of this earth

[stellarshore]

Despite all, you seem very very devious.

[ema21burton]

COOL ca a l'air bien marrant, je viens juste d'acheter des champignons hallucinogenes sur french shayanashop j'ai trop hate qu'ils arrivent.

[NormlynNJ]

I really liked this video...thank you.

[roachrip]

luv it!! eat up people!

[ChewSomeCaps]

Tigerhearted.... that makes no sense. Even if they're not bad for your body, you just want to be safe...? If they're not bad for you, then it's safe. Where does this idea come from that drugs are bad? A lot of things in our society are bad, but we don't make them illegal. Cmon now man, be realistic. Meditation is good and supposedly can help you reach enlightenment, but how long is that going to take? One dose of mushrooms can propel you straight into enlightenment. I'm not saying one is better

[buckfushes]

God exists, but only in the minds of deluded people and little kids with imaginary friends.

[veganath]

@buckfushes God the label isn't as important as the reality it points too. I wouldn't be too dismissive of contemplative experience, given you have the patience for it, otherwise there are are avenues for the same experience.....

[SteveUllom]

Shrooms grow all over the woods around my house. we call them bluefoots as the big ones turn black and when you pinch them your finger print is burned into them in blue. they are great. if you eat too many you puke and that how you know you are good to go. you cant have a bad trip on them in the same sense as you can with lsd . I have been eating shrooms at least 60 days of the year for the last 13 years and have never felt anything but bliss. so many people never live a second of bliss. itsSad

[creephorse]

Well.. not all blue bruising mushrooms are Psilocybes, and telling someone so *could* result in a dangerous experience. And eat til you puke? That's not a method I've ever gone by. I've never once puked mushrooms up and they have taken me to the core of reality and beyond. Eating enough to make me puke would lead to an extremely harrowing journey. Not trying to offend here, but I don't think these are sound words of advice you've offered.. at least not for others, though it may work for you.

[parousia555]

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

Hallucinogens affect your heart. The use of hallucinogens leads to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure. Hallucinogens can put you in a coma. They can also cause heart and lung failure.

The shit they put on anti drug sites

[stplghtracer]

Show one actual example

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

Example of what?

I don't beleive that halucinogens are bad at all.

[stplghtracer]

Of a hallucinogen causing a coma, heart or lung failure.

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

@stplghtracer Why do you not read my original comment properly.

Maybe I should have used quotation marks but the first paragraph was quotes from a youth drug information site. Which is fear mongering in deseiving info

[stplghtracer]

Word

[jcap623]

Yeah so can someone jumping out behind a corner and shouting "boo". Dumbass

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

You cant read can you

[jcap623]

@lumpybruisychickeny1wut?

[Fladavenue]

MY  KINSMAN MAJOR MOLINEUX----

a mushroom tale.

[billiardsusa]

intelligante life= man eating MAGIC MUSHROOMs=HOLY SPIRIT=GOD=Jesus eating mushrooms(take this my body--bread-- and eat this in remembrance of me)

[ApexBozo]

Your videos are awfully half-baked, to be brutally honest, mushroom jesus. You've got the Maya confused with the Olmecs for starters. The Maya civilization never "....Vanissshed". The Maya civilization was still extant up until and beyond the Spanish conquest. It's culture and belief system were co-opted by Catholicism; it's myths and motifs ascribed Judeo-Christian significance, just as happened in pagan Europe during the dark ages and Africa during the colonial period.

[kohiwy]

Hmm, I didn't know that it caused the legs of paras to move.  And I've heard before that it improves vision. Who was it that could "make the lame walk, and the blind see"? :)

[JaednHowlar]

To TigerHearted: Yes, I also have had experiences and shifts from meditation. I would venture to say that deep, sustained meditation practise with full loving intention will brinfg you to the same realms of mushrooms. Mushrooms is more like a sneak peek at Nirvana, It gives us a view of the world beyond the veil, but doesnt fully let us in, because we may have a ticket to view, but we havent the license to live there... Mushrooms, however can enhance meditation. You might try just a low dose...

[voznow7]

The way you talk is kinda hard to listen too.

[MrPaul0815]

I couldnt see a red line, so sorry!

I hope you can survive that! B.t.w, why do you cry like a little girl? Are you this guys mother? I think you are. Hey this guys mum, could you tell your son to dress himself more reponsable, please? And sorry for my bad english, i am no native speaker. So, it could be that there are some mistakes in my message. So dont hurt yourself when you see some, please! And dont have bad feelings for me, because of this. Sincerely yours... (kiss)

[MrPaul0815]

i think that if you like to convience people of your thinking, you should maybe change your appearance. (dont show your snake and so on...)

i really think more people would pay serious attention

[steve4ha]

If you want to give people advice, you should use spell check.

[MrPaul0815]

It's ok. You should understand what i tried to say ;)

[steve4ha]

how is it ok? You're telling this guy to look more presentable and you didn't take the time to see that youtube put a red line under one of your words.

[TheFanofFPS]

WOW you are AWESOME dude.

[randall642]

Jesus was an extra terrestrial.

[GnosticMedia]

If you're going to dismiss the Amanita in Christianity themes, you've got to deal with the thousands of Christian icons that plainly depict the Amanita muscaria. However, in our book we clearly discuss both mushrooms and how they were actually used TOGETHER - which is the ultimate secret of alchemy, which you - "unfortunately' - overlooked. There are also ancient texts that discuss AM as related to the Apples. This was published in my last book, and others can be found in the Kabala.

[TheOneartist]

@GnosticMedia LOL I know your comment is 2 years old, but you're one of the top ones.

A point I want to make is that the non-NIV translations of the Old Testament describe manna as little white round things, which matches psilocybin mushrooms. Amanitas can have damaging effects on the body as opposed to psilocybin. Not to discount your research, though. I don't doubt there have been many Christians who've used the Amanita muscaria, but I believe that psilocybin is the true manna.

[GnosticMedia]

@TheOneartist Well, where's your research to back that statement? How do you deal with it in light of the other 40+ years of academic research on this topic? How do you know that we didn't already address this issue in our book? Who cares about "non-NIV" translations? I have sover 30 translations, and I also look up the meanings of the original words in Hebrew, as it outlined in the book. Just because YOU think this or that, bears NADA on history or the facts thereof.

[GnosticMedia]

The Jesus as a Penis story was started by Gordon Wasson against John Allegro. There was no story ever published by that title, nor was it published in the News of the World as Wasson claimed. For the latest research on this topic, see The Holy Mushroom by Jan Irvin - wherein all of the details and exact arguments and conversations are laid bare for all to see.

[mushroomjesus]

Who is this Jan Irwin? In Europe, there are great Amanita paintings... it's what they had. But the round head period where they worshiped cows, and the Tassili Plateau mushroom man--had to be psilocybin which is psychedelic, not psychosomatic like the amanita which can KILL people--I'm sticken with Terrence Mckenna and Paul Stamets... I like gnosticmedia, but you gotta admit, an achaic revival would be better if there was a psilocybin resurgence instead of Amanita...

[GnosticMedia]

Ignorance is bliss...

BTW, if you had read more books than two, you'd already know that there are no recorded deaths from Muscaria. Yes, you have to be careful, but it doesn't mean your presentation is historically accurate, it means it's your opinion. We're dealing with history, not your opinion. There is solid prove that both Amanita and Psilocybe species were used. Simple fact, your video is inaccurate, and you're spreading wrong info.

[FletcherHabit]

@mushroomjesus I agree psilocybin over amanita anyday but some ppl apparently get a good strong reaction.. it has to do how the muscol.. converts in the liver. but even high dose psilocybin is comparatively weak compared to high dose dmt experiences.. ~peace

[GnosticMedia]

@mushroomjesus Psilocybin does play a minor role on some of the Christian themes and paintings, but not near as much as Amanita. If you weren't so biased, spreading false info about deaths that haven't been reported, then you might have something. But the iconography and texts, especially that in the Zohar, discuss a RED mushroom. Look at the iconography and study the texts before making conclusions about other cultures and applying them to this one.

[stoneyjonez]

3500 BC is LESS THAN 6000 years ago...

[mushroomjesus]

3500-6000BC was the estimated date of the Tassili Plateau

[tigerhearted87]

what do you think about reaching some sort of altered state in meditation VS your method. which do you think would be more helpful, and have you tried the meditation path before? i dont want to try any drugs, even if there not bad for your health, just like being safe to my body.

[mushroomjesus]

Well, safe in the body is good for ordinary living modes, but we all die, and psilocybin which mimic DMT in the brain gives a person the sense of being alive and dead at the same time... not a "safe" feeling, but an awake feeling... It is hard to integrate the experience into everyday life, but the whole point is to show a person that their regular perceptions are EXTREMELY limited... meditation is great, but to altar perception, it takes years... psilocybin can give a glimpse

[tigerhearted87]

:D ive had my perception extremely changed through meditation, i guess i just took a different path that appealls more to me. it takes practice but i have patience your right :) your actually pretty cool regardless of people thinking your just some junkie.

[tigerhearted87]

@mushroomjesus i see what you mean :D

[creephorse]

@tigerhearted87 Try both together. Mushrooms have the power to propel your meditation straight in to the light.

[cartmansucks31]

mushrooms make me sick! lol they are disgusting

[TheCalifornian]

I cant eat shrooms because it causes sever leg spasms. t11 para. It's interesting to see it affects others the same way.

[porkythepig16]

I don't get why you have to make it so deep and meaningful.

let's get shroomed up!

[strumr91]

No offense, but that's kind of the mentality that will keep it illegal.

[SororThothma]

To ingest Syrian Rue (Peganum harmala) is serious business because it is a shortacting MAOI, which can greatly exacerbate the potency of some modern meds, leading to lethal effects. If approached with respect, and several days of a researched and controlled diet, harmoline can be a superb addition to a journey. However, it doesn't take much, like less than three grams. Passion flower is less potent by about a factor of ten but has the Harmaline. Do your homework and journey safely.

[WIGNSWORD]

A "MOLECULAR PRODUCT OF EVOLUTION" which "PRODUCES A DRASTICALLY ALTERED STATE OF REALITY" is a broad category, soldatheero7: in that compass we may fit both the man/god JESUS THE ANOINTED and THE MAGIC MUSHROOM. Are they both one and the same? Maybe, maybe not. But the category does not obliterate either option!!!! We need details and you have provided none of these. In my existential prerogative I select THE MUSHROOM (just for now...) ;-)

[frollun2]

i think its crazy how hallucinogens for thousands of years have been used for apiritual purposes. even today people use them for spirituality. no other type of drug has as great of a spiritual history as hallucinogens.

WHY?!?! do they really provoke spiritual experiences? and if not why are hallucinogens used for this purpose more so than any other type of drug?

[SilentBud420]

yes the do take away your ego and provoke mystical/religious expirecing, become one with the universe and change your perception of reality for life..other drugs that are non hallucinogenic dont produce thoes states and are addictive and hurt your body.

[sacredthornapple]

Though, ganja works for some in some of the same ways, without hallucinations.

[beetlebattle8]

could u make this video more boaring

[beetlebattleisatwat]

No, but I'm sure you could.

[spitinthacoola]

Your info says you're paralyzed. You look pretty mobile to me.

[soldatheero7]

Psilocybin may produce a mystical experiance but how does that make the mushroom jesus or much less god? God is infinite consciousness not the mushroom which is merely molecular product of evolution which produces a drastically altered reality. If you could obtain godhood in a pill then god is not worthy of being god.

[explosivejohnny]

i think you'd be REALLY interested in the perennial philosophy by aldous huxley... i just started it, and he gets into all kinds of stuff like that.

[SilentBud420]

you can attain god hood MANY ways.. jesus said "i am the bread of life" the little round thiings that appear in the morning dew, and need to be dried or they will rot. hallucinogens just reviel yourself to yourself, and youreslf is the universe!

[SilentBud420]

also some belive hallucinogens are the thing that called or monkey consiousness into a huge evolutionary leap that happened. and now its a feedback loop with hallucinogens or something like htat

[drgnlord2]

that is a good theory

[Timebandit720]

I have M.E. and get some terrible headaches which debilitates myn life. I have hard these are similar to cluster headaches and wondered if these mushrooms might help? I did take them in my younger days, so do know what to expect. I always enjoyed the experience, though not as deep as LSD.

[lamofbodom]

it's been shown through studies that small doses (prbably no more than half a gram) can do wonders for migraines and cluster headaches.

[CrossWord316]

Psilocybin has nothing to do with the Bible or Adam and Eve. Whether you know it or not, you are a student of Mystery Babylon. And the lies can be very, very believable

Do some deeper research. There is a lot of pseudo-history. The existence of Jesus is not even debated by reliable historians.

[bennymcfarlane]

there is a search engine like that: igod

[Alkemical]

My bruddah'

The apostles of light are once again increasing in numbers ;)

beWARE forces of darkness!

[kleffbois]

This video is deceptively named, you don't really speak much about the john hopkins research, instead concentrating more on mystical/pseudoscientific/pseu­dohistorical ideas

[lilchico4wg]

dont use gmail man. escape from the big brother e-mail

[SpiritMolecule1]

why do you have to talk like that? you sound dumb though i know you arent

[IlluminatiHellaven]

I want the picture at 2:13...where I can find it?...

[lilchico4wg]

me as well

[robertellingson]

i dont think that is a painting it looks too bright and the plasma filaments too detailed. but how was that thing created?

[Cronokon]

The mix of mushrooms and syran rue seeds as nothing to do with a true mushroom trip! I have tried it( tripped back to the womb, no jesus shit), and found it very heavy and unproductive. If you are going to due that, remember to use a third to half the weight of mushrooms you would normaly use.

This has nothing to due with the mushrooms tradicional use in any culture, even the ones that had plants containing MAO innibitors and mushrooms groing together.

Good video, between o:oo and 8:17.

[SelflessEmpire]

Bravo! Great Video

[silverbackman]

I don't think this is a an issue of "science vs religion".....those crazy puritan nuts are the ones that banned and hate psychedelics to begin with. I think these psychedelic experiences deal more with mysticism.....which isn't necessarily the same thing as religion.

[l8e1v4i]

Actually that's what I meant... I should have said 'psychoactive'. I hate the word pyschedelic.

[churchesbasement]

I hate the name "god" how dare you disgusting people assume that a higher power is masculin where is the sacred feminine you can't have life with out the feminine, enough with christ and god and hell its making sick with anger you stupid stupid people (I know its all symbollic but for fucks sakes man how long can this shit go on for fuck your stupid idiocracies hail the peacfull mushroom and the sacred earth and destiny itself and I love goates and paganism wich is what christ is based on

[MosesHightower]

spirits dont have gender. gender is a physical trait. even in religions, God is seen as spirit: non-physical and without gender. you're misinterpreting the word regardless of your spiritual belief. though, some tiny forms of life on this planet are androgynous & many aliens also.

[mos619]

OMG YOU'RE EVIL! YOU'RE SATAN! YOU'RE THE ANTICHRIST!

But ya know I guess when you really look at it, if God really is God, then he is all those things. So I guess you're really God! Thanks God, for making this kick ass universe, though I think you might have made a few mistakes, what with the war and general dumbfuckdidness. Works in progress, I know. Anywho, keep up the good work!

[ESP1EMG]

Na, that's our fault not his.

[mos619]

What I was driving at is a mystical perspective in which there is no separation between God and us, all is one. If God is God; omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscience, so on and so forth, then everyone and everything is God. That's why Jesus says the kingdom of God is within you, and Buddha says everything is Buddha consciousness. I'm still tryin to figure out why that isn't common knowledge and why I get thumbs down for sayin it, but I guess when you really think about it it doesnt really matter.

[ESP1EMG]

sounds like hinduism....

[mos619]

They all sound the same

[ESP1EMG]

Not really. Some worship only one god above all. Others believe god is omnipresnt, like you mentioned. That is where religions clash..

[MosesHightower]

& Funkadelic said "Free your mind and your ass will follow. The kingdom of heaven is within." :) well, most people only use their 5 senses (barely those even b/c they're so desensitized from following the superficial path the conformist mainstream paves) and you need your 6th sense (feeling/intuition/spirit) to recognize truth beyond the physical earth reality. most people block this out. yes you are right about everything being God. to summarize, God is the only thing that exists.

[MyBeautifulRaven]

"beyond the physical earth reality?"

Say what?

[MosesHightower]

exactly. basically meaning spirit, or anything beyond the illusion most people think is all there is

[MyBeautifulRaven]

If by beyond, you mean to say metaphysically independant, you'll have a difficult time proving it. If by 'beyond' you mean a 'level deeper' (like layers of an onion) I have no quarrel.

[MosesHightower]

no, not independent as everything is connected. but most people only know what they can see with their eyes and think this is all there is. in response to mos619's comments, they cant figure out that the microcosm is connected to the macrocosm. 'beyond' refers to 'beyond people's limited perception'.

[SwallowerOfPlanets9]

idk man..it all eventually turns to hippy mumbo-jumbo. the "mystical experience" is so convincing under the influence, but it is easy to contradict with science and psychology.

[HerbaceousBob]

some one needs to learn how to spell Johns Hopkins

[mushroomjesus]

Yeah--I'm rebelling, convinced that John does not own "Hopkins" as an objet--unless of course "Johns" was the last name of a co-founding person with the last name "Hopkins"... but either way, you're right, I'm changing the title of this video.

[TikiKid]

The most important member of the youtube community Is the man speaking in this video. Thanks for this, very important info in here. Keep making these videos. Much love!

[mushroomjesus]

Man... nah--I'm just a punk kid.

[zkafel]

Dude, cool video. Terence McKenna is the man. I first got into him when I was 15 (I'm 23 now). I was experimenting a lot with different psychedelic drugs and for me Baby Hawaiian Woodrose Seeds gave me a mystical experience. I saw an intense hallucination of Jesus who was hovering above some monolith and clouds. And my life flashed in front of me in fast-forward (kind of like you say w/ Ibogaine I guess). I also had communication with a tree that was outside the window at my parents house.

[mushroomjesus]

LSA... yeah, baby woodrose was the first psychedelic I tried (weed isn't really) on a full moon electronic party outside on a white sand beach, Kua Bay near Kona... I ate four and was letting the waves roll me along the shore, but around 4am there was a group of us and we all started to laugh uncontrollably and this girl suggested we go in the tent for a "cuddle puddle" which sounded good, but I was horrified to find it was an orgy. It must be only me but sex is the last thing on my mind on LSA

[zkafel]

I did 9 seeds (I think you're supposed to do 10 though, all my friends did 10). We had to scrape the cyanide off, got them online at basement shaman. do u know that site? They used to have a lot of cool stuff, not sure if they still do though.

[mushroomjesus]

whoa... you got them online and they worked? Awesome, I bet that won't last for long--were they taxed? They grow in Hawaii and one of my friends picked them. One time I think I didn't scrape the fuzz off enough and I had coffee with them, maybe that did it, but it felt like my stomach was going to blow up--I had to do a head stand for hours against a coconut tree the whole full moon party--was pretty cool seeing the DJ's spinning and people dancing while tripping upside down.

[zkafel]

yeah that fuzz was most likely cyanide. you could potentially die if you ingested what they send you (without scraping), they say they use the cyanide for shipping purposes or something so that it's not accidently ingested. doesn't make sense to me. but yeah, we got them online. this was about 4-5 years ago.

[l8e1v4i]

I know that with Morning Glory Heavenly Blues, they use a coating of Magnesium as a deterrent which induces nausea. I highly doubt they'd use cyanide... nonetheless, it's certainly smart to clean them up before ingesting!

[JTickett]

Even so, the seeds naturally have something that causes nausea, unless the nausea reported is from the bad choice of diet as mushroomjesus mentioned. If you smoke cannabis, take a few tokes (dont need to get high) if/when you get the stomach cramps, and the nausea & sickness will disappear.

[l8e1v4i]

Weed isn't a psychedelic? Gotta challenge ya on that one! :)

[tossboo]

shamanic quality

[nativeops]

I LUV YOU MAN. You're speakin to my heart. we should enter the fifth dimension sometime except we probably live on opposite sides of the island. up there, aminita, down here psilocybin. I need no bible, only the tools that the universe built me with. such as psilocybin receptors.

[UNIONWARE]

Many years ago I was visited by a little gnome like spirit, (actually there may have been more then one in this one vision) which seemed to rip apart my life (as a matter of words). I dismissed this unique vision untill years later when I saw a George Harrison Album cover wherin he was laying claim to being viseted by little gnomes. Now I am seeing mention of it again. How can so many people have such a similiar delusion. Also is the possibility of being viseted by small fairies. just crazy

[mushroomjesus]

"Delusions"--ha!--you don't believe your own words, I can tell. Because science, at this time, can not quantify the existence of these beings who slip in and out of our "reality" many believe that they are "hallucinations". In the human brain, certain chemicals react in different ways--serotonin like reactions with LSD and psilocybin, and cocaine will mess with the dopamine... that doesn't mean that because one is found factual, the other is false--quantum physics the realm infinite??!??

[Skah777]

I have spoken with a person involved in running the John Hopkins research. They are making great strides in entheogenic research and have a current study going on right now. Contact them if you have or had cancer (like myself).

[mushroomjesus]

I'm taking abnormal psychology and found out that blood pressure medication or anti-depressant medication can cause blood vessels in the brain to burst, but the professor didn't know that Ayahuasca (maoi and dmt brew) actually creates more serotonin receptors in the brain... so be careful, but ENJOY!

[Skah777]

MAOI inhibitors (syrian rue etc) can kill you. It can cause hypertensive crisis leading to a stroke. Certain people may be more suceptible than others. BE CAREFUL, follow the diet strictly.

[TerryOlinger]

I have seen the serpent on ayahuasca. In dreams of taking psilocybin, I had never seen a serpent. After this video, I dreamed I took a very small amount of psilocybin, all I had left from a previous dream. I expected little or nothing from this dream ony 1.2 dried grams of very small shrooms. It (dream) was about three times as powerful as I expected and I saw the Ayahuasca serpent there. Most amaizing. Keep posting!

[Juxtaposed1Nmotion]

what you dream of taking drugs and it works? PLEASE MESSAGE ME PLEASE!!!!

[TerryOlinger]

No, I just didn't want ppl to think I really did such an illegal thing so just put in the note that I dream of it. I just dreamt that.

[BongOfCthulu]

I had a dream lastnight i took two hits of blotter, and for half the dream I waited anxiously for it to kick in, even starring at my hand own hand to see if it would sway or move (first dream ever to remember seeing my own hand!) Then it really did kick in and instead of the colorful-swaying visuals you get, my vision just got black and blacker until i couldnt see and then the dream ended...now I am craving LSD to no anvil...bah

[bakbiets]

i enjoy this and get headace if i see the viewing rate this have to be millions not only 245 viewers

the reason why (they) say its illigal is becuss the ELITE dont want us to explore our mind and see that there 1000 other demensions and learn in 1 trip more then most people doin whole there life or have out of body experinces and alot moree,NOOO they want us to be dumb as slaves then consume haha i call it devolution NOW WORK

[DrakeDorosh]

I think your comment is interesting. Partly because the red speckled mushrooms the Amanita Muscaria are NOT illegal in most places. I wonder if that is because the Elite use these mushrooms as part of the ancient secret traditions. I've been telling my friends about mushroomJesus and wish him success.

[mushroomjesus]

Well... tell your friends about mushrooms, tell your friends that their not toxic! I heard someone say: "The only reason you hallucinate on shrooms is because your brain is bleeding trying to get the toxins out." I didn't even know how to respond... ignorance is the status quo, and the D.A.R.E classes flat out LIE to kids!

[DrakeDorosh]

I particularly like the time you take to persuade the typical go to church on Sunday crowd that entheogens are a central of Christianity. Modern Christians don't use oil much anymore though. I wonder why?

[alphagrasshopper]

The modern day institution of Christianity in the U.S. is more a thing of patriotism and family values which has nothing to do with the man Jesus or the sacramental use of things which caused "miracles"... now we who look to fuse religsion and science are called blasphemere g

[shininglight777]

I have read that the combo of amanita/psilocybin is really the kicker to the heavenly abode, the white pure light of God. Red/Blue=purple, the color of royalty, the color with the highest vibratory rate on our human visable spectrum....just thoughts. I have never eaten an amanita, though I am very much led to by spirit, and now am simply awaiting the proper guides and time/space configuration for optimal Creator integration! peace

[TerryOlinger]

Wow!

[tigno323]

its really red blue and green,amanita + psilocibin + canabis sativa=SOMA,to some extent

[TerryOlinger]

Fascinating! All of this is fascinating, the video, the comments...

[shininglight777]

Right on brother! I love you for this, awesome presentation, good job keeping the facts and references straight, nice research, you are hot on the trail!! It all leads back to the mushrooms!! peace

nate

[TheChelayLupeShow]

you have the sexiest voice!

[2bornot2b1984]

WARNING to any one watching this video: MAO inhibitors (what is in the Syrian Rue seeds) can do a lot more than make you "throw up." Ingesting them can literally make the blood vessels in your brain BURST!

Syrian Rue seeds supress chemicals in your body that are there to PREVENT YOU FROM BEING POISENED BY EVERYDAY FOOD.

Syrian Rue seeds and other MAO inhibitors supress amines, in particular tyramine which is found naturally in MANY food items.

Continued...

[2bornot2b1984]

The description in this video of dietary restrictions while consuming MAOs is not NEARLY extensive enough.

Did you check your curry sauce? Oops tyramines. Have some tempeh for lunch? More tyramines. I only had a salad...with brewers yeast sprinkled on it. Oops tyramines. Did you even remember that kombucha you drank this morning? Tyramines. What about that smoothie at the co-op? Did it have protien extracts? Tyramines. At least the ginseng was a nice touch...DOH!

It's a good thing no one ever drinks beer while tripping cause that would be bad. Coffee, fish, cheese, chocalate etc. etc. etc.

The real question is what DOESN'T contain chemicals that can make you sick when combined with MAO inhibitors. God forbid some armchair psychonaut doesn't consume banana peels simultaneously with Syrian Rue in an attempt to find a cheap legal high.

[2bornot2b1984]

What if people take these seeds to a party and hand them to someone and tell them to eat them when they trip? What if that person hands some to another person? What dietary warning will these people have?

Jasper I been checkin out your videos for a while now and found them quite interesting even though I am not really down with the prolific encouragement of drug use. I found your monastary experience to be very compelling and well written.

[2bornot2b1984]

Sharing your experience with the supressive side of religion will be quite helpfull to many I am sure. All of the wheelchair videos are totally awesome and will really help to normalize physical handicaps in society.

I think you need to take more responsibility in realizing that not all people react well to psychadelic experiences. I know a lot of heads who don't even incorporate weed into their life productively.

I hope you will take these words into consideration. Peace.

[2bornot2b1984]

P.S. to readers, I mis-spoke in the first post. Mao inhibitors don't supress amines, they supress the enzyme that supresses amines.

True Dat 2bornot2b1984... do research on Syrian Rue... clean up the diet and make sure you're not on antihistamines, you could die... but if your diet is clean... you may have the privilege of talking to an Alien/Angel... (God)? I can't do Syrian Rue... too scared because I'm on methadone for pain.

[TerryOlinger]

I am also on Methadone for pain and have dreams where I do Syrian Rue as anahuasca with no ill effects. I've also dreamed of doing Syrian Rue with psilocybin. It made it more hallucinogenic but not more mind expanding. I find your videos interestint.

[TerryOlinger]

The maoi's in Syrian Rue are reversible. The dietary fears are something we need to get over. I drink coffee when I dream of doing anahuasca or ayahuasca. I eat what I please. I just clean up my diet for 2 hours before consuming Rue and have had no problems. My only concern would be for ppl taking SSRIs for depression, which could lead to hypertensive crises. Thanks for posting. Terry Olinger RN

[mushroomjesus]

so you're saying methadone is okay with an MAO inhibitor? I was nervous, but I'm also on Neurontin (gabapentine) which is an anti-seizure medication that helps for the pain, and hyprix which keeps my bladder acidified for urinary track infection prevention... and of course doctors say to keep away from MAO's but I wonder... Ayahuasca was such a spiritual fast track--clearing the lines blurred by my ego.

[TerryOlinger]

Yes, Methadone is okay with an MAOI.  Don't know about the Neurontin and hyprix. The dietary restrictions were drawn up to protect ppl taking pharmaceutically synthesized antidepressants. Dietary precautions for reversible plant derived MAOIs are not so strict. I wouldn't eat eat yeast or rotten bananas, but most things can be safely eaten on Rue or Caapi.

[shininglight777]

I did circle with a woman this spring, who has associates doing ayawasca circles in Portland Or. Last year a woman lied on her intake interview, said she was not on any anti-depressants, took ayawasca, and died that night. Mixing MAOI's with Ayawasca is almost always DEADLY. Do not fuck around with it. Be safe, meet yourself, and come back to earth. peace

[mushroomjesus]

Woe! I've heard of the Portland group... it's pretty small, only 3 people or so chanting the hymns in Portuguese. I was thinking about it, but I'm on 5 different meds for pain and knew that mixing could be fatal. Of course western medicine has the scientific reason for the cause of death, but I wonder if Spiritually the beings of the Ayahuasca consider anti-depressants to be betrayal...?

[ssjjbbww]

what is your drug of choice when you make your videos ?

[mushroomjesus]

Definitely Ayahuasca, but I hear Ibogaine root is like 10 years of psychotherapy in one session. A little gnome type spirit appears and goes over your life--really harshly and you face your mistakes head on, then it shows you where you will head if you don't make a change--craziest thing is, Junkies no longer have cravings for heroin after ibogaine (iboga).

[achemachew]

Is the reason that you make sure your not on any antihistamines, like diphenhydramine, because you could get a serious condition called "serotonin syndrome?"

[mushroomjesus]

never heard of that syndrome, but a guest in the Ayahuasca ceremony known as Santo Daime, had ecstasy the night before and his heart stopped. They pounded on his chest and got it going again, but it's never safe to guess what might be okay with mao inhibitors. Bland food: Rice, Beans, potatoes, fish and NOTHING fermented: Rasins, beer, kombucha etc...

[SixMillionDollarAcid]

I'm gonna eat some jesus on monday.

Btw, I thougt terence mckenna died in 2001, according to wiki it was 2000

[TerryOlinger]

Lucky you. Tell JC 'hi' for me.

[mushroomjesus]

You are what you eat... Got Jesus?

[InfiniteRealms]

Years ago I had a neighbor who was a parapelegic and a diabetic. When he took a pscho active substance I won't name his legs would jump around as he sat in his wheelchair. I found it quite interesting that an ethnogen could have that effect.

[mushroomjesus]

Yeah... most of the paras I talk to have leg spasms and if they take shrooms they bounce like mad... I don't have any spasms, so I don't flop around when I talk to JC... sure glad about that... do your paras complain about the bouncing legs?

[InfiniteRealms]

I don't really remember. It was 1979. Quite awhile ago and he was basically a pretty quiet person. I do remember crashing his car into a fence driving him home once. Those funky hand controls Ha! OK, I had a few drinks...

[mushroomjesus]

Hand controls are pretty smooth now... I hear they used to be push for gas and pull for brake--the only problem is when you stop, the inertia moves you forward, so how would you pull the brake? Now its push for brake and slide down for gas... fences can rest assured now:)
