First off, thank you for making this resource available. The information and thoughts expressed in this forum are truly priceless -- priceless not for only the intrinsic value of the data, but also that it is recording this time in human history.
I've been involved in psychedelics for a few years. Mainly mushrooms, which have opened my third eye and allowed me to touch the divine. I have had many renewing, healing, and enlightening experiences. As an artist, I tried using them to further my creative endeavors, but the lack of coordination and relaxed feeling does not lend itself well to actually creating a drawing or painting while under the influence.
LSD however, is perfect for the creative process. It provides energy, focus, and attention to detail needed to explore ever deeper into my art. Spiritually, it does not do the trick though. It only leaves you exhausted, whereas psilocybin leaves you replenished.
I use these two sparingly, in a healthy way as tools to better myself. The creative and spiritual release has served me well to loosen up and balance out my relentlessly hard working lifestyle.
A couple of years ago, I heard about DMT while researching substrates on the shroomery. Then I got ahold of Rick Strassman's book and the quest for information began. Although I have not had the privilege to try spice yet, I have been researching it heavily over the past year. Next spring is when I plan to take my first steps working with spice. Unfortunately I am not in a place in my life to start now.
I just saw The Spirit Molecule documentary on the 19th. The filmmakers did a wonderful job, and the theater was sold out! It fills me with joy to see the support grow. It seems the psychedelic community has learned from events of the 60's that ended up discrediting this stuff and stifling important research. This time around they are determined to get it right. More mature attitudes must prevail and we won't treat this stuff as a toy.
Most of what I know about DMT I learned from the Nexus, so forgive me if I don't post very often. I will keep reading and absorbing information until I am ready to go down this road.
