I was reading The Spirit Molecule and becoming very intrigued by the experiences that volunteers had. Reading the book in public in NYC provoked some very intriguing conversations. Just when I am thinking where would I even find something as exotic as this substance.... the book introduced me to a fellow traveler who hooked me up with some yellowish powdered spice.
Up until this point my friend and I had been exploring shrooms almost monthly for a year at Alex Grey’s Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. I had also done LSD several times back in the 80's at Dead shows. I was somewhat experienced and felt confident in exploring the world of spice.
We get a glass water pipe and bring it back to my place. We split the yellow crystals into 2 doses. I place my dose on the bowl screen of the dry pipe, placed a torch lighter to the bowl of and slowly inhale. I actually enjoyed the taste and smell of the vapor, it smelled like an exotic perfume. I filled my lugs with trepidation. Then it hit me...
A translucent, colorful sphere comprised of complex geometry appears around the water pipe in my hand, about 2' in diameter. I hand the water pipe to my friend, close my eyes and lean my head back on the couch.
There is no real launch, but I am somewhere else. To the right of me there is a console of some sort with 2 disks. The disks appear to be some kind of screens, approximately 1.5' in diameter, showing a gradation of a full spectrum of bright colour revolving clockwise.
In front of is an opening to a large room the size of a factory or warehouse which expanded around the corner to my right. As I visually explore the location my head is moving in this world, as if I have on virtual reality goggles on. Everything felt cartoonish like I was in Second Life.
I don't remember seeing anything else being there except for feeling that there was a presence and more to see around the corner. And then I returned to this world opening my eyes. I felt like I my dose was too low and as quick as this new reality appeared it disappeared. I had to go back and see more. I needed to know what was around the corner.
It was a perfect introduction The World of Spice.
