Bring back the good old days. Just don't be an asshole, use your brain, and trust your nervous system.

[TylerMontana]

I feel sorry for the people who are not open minded. They will forever be prisoners of their own mind.

[kopadenieve]

good old days are false, they do not exist in you but as a memory... Good Now Time is what's real...bring yourself to the now and enjoy the ride

[MrDavidKessler]

I have taken hundreds of trips, Purple Ohms, Black Microdots, double dipped strawberrys, Saddam Hussains, Brown Buddahs.Most were amazing but the last couple were horrible, got the fear real bad with some nasty visuals. On the whole I don't regret it but you really need to make sure you are in a good frame of mind, ideally with some good friends around who are doing the same thing.

The title is misleading. I thought this was Ram Dass ON acid.

Sadly, I've only done LSD once...and it was just one tab. Wasn't that strong...but the closed eye visuals were pretty neat...lots of transforming patterned images. And the open eye distortions in color and shape were cool too. But...the drug that really blew my mind was psilocybin mushrooms...about 6 grams, dried. It was the single most poignant, powerful, meaningful, fascinating, transformative experience of my entire life. I highly highly recommend it to anyone interested.

All of us are LOST

I wouldn't personally mix entheogens, unless it was beneficial towards my awakening process. I guess, since you've done it already, the mix of the 2 was beneficial for your awakening; as is every other moment and experience of your life!

Personally, I'm going to do what I'm going to do. And you will do what you will do. And the universe will do what it will do. But since we are the universe, we are doing what the universe is doing. We are not separate.

I'm waking up, to me, the Oneness,

you don't have to sell me on LSD...i love it! i've done salvia on LSD though, so now salvia alone can take me into LSD-like headspace

[MrUnlimitedPotential]

I understand that...but salvia doesn't unlock the hidden genius within everyone; LSD does!

I've tried salvia 7 times. It is probably the most powerful psychedelic next to DMT. lol

Still, LSD-25 is something that everyone needs to experience; under certain conditions only! (meditation, guide, mindset, setting, purity)

Seriously, the government did studies on LSD and it showed that it can significantly improve one's intellectual capacity and creativity. Even nobel-prizes have been won thx to LSD

[KatiHathor]

in most states you can grow and smoke or quid salvia completely legally
