Grof is one of my heroes. He has such a vast understanding of the psyche and altered states of consciousness. I highly admire his work and continue to spread his work.

Holotropic breathing is a great way to discover your true self. It did help me a lot... But please do not try to practice it yourself without a proper guidence. You need to have somebody at your side to help you to return back to this world..

@islandbuoy4 do you have any materials on that topic? I would be pleased to read something about it.

Recent breakthrough linking Grof's work to the  LANGUAGE of SOUND and LIGHT.

i.e. photons and phosphenes, (both of which NASA is VERY interested in)

@TaHrPa You said you couln't find DMT anywhere and were looking at holtrophic breathing. Well ..your brain is making DMT everyday and you go into the dreamstate. Maybe you would try to bring more awareness into the dreamstate. If you could become aware while dreaming you would be very surprised. Don't write off the dreamstate just because you are dumping memory evertime you leave it.

@phlip77 I'm from Brazil too. Here, DXM is sold as a medicine called Benalet TSC, from Johnson & Johnson, but if you take the syrup as it is sold, you absolutely will feel nausea and discomfort in your stomach and intestine, probably because the sugars. This is personal experience.

So, if you want to use DXM, you have to extract it from the syrup or buy it online. I don't know if you can buy it in laboratories.

@kangurzysty Actually DMT exists in every persons pineal gland. Dmt also exists in most plants and animals. DMT is extracted mainly from the ayahusca plant because of its large DMT content. Opium is a whole different thing.

This new ti me

@kangurzysty Ah, okay. :) I misread your punctuation as you saying "DMT, not DXM, which is derived from opium." my B :D

[kangurzysty]

@jsltm888 duh, thats just what I meant, I didn't say at any point that DMT is derived from opium, thats what I said about DXM! For a spiritual trip, you would rather use DMT, no? Thats why I thought that someone confused DXM with DMT, because DXM is pure shit and I don't have the faintest clue why one should chose to ingest it;] I would never confuse the two, because (yes!) they are VASTLY different drugs;]
