...failed! It didn't fail completely but it didn't go exactly as planned. The key factor here is: I didn't take the mimosa extract I brewed. I'll tell you about this later. The day began ok, a little hangover from drinking too much beer the day before but the general feeling was ok, even quite spiritual, while laying in bed I had two experiences of heavy meditation giving spiritual food. So this would be the day of my aya experience and it started quite ok. In the afternoon I prepared the mimosa, I took 10 grams of it and grinded it in my newly bought coffee grinder, the grinder worked perfectly and an orange powder with some cotton-like fibres were the result. I took 2 litres of water, added the grinded mimosa and started the boiling down. While doing the boiling down I was consulting the DMT nexus forum once in a while to get some last minute information from blackclo and Noman (thanx guys!). At that point I found out I forgot to put some lemon-juice into the boiling mixture and went for the shop, bought some of those fresh smelling lemons (not cheap in The Netherlands at 1,99 euro's for 4 of them) and squished one of them into the mixture and added half a litre of water and continued the boiling. While doing the boiling down I cleaned the coffee grinder thoroughly and grinded about 4 grams of rue, I wanted to grind 3 grams but my weighing equipment only counted by 2grams at a time, oh well.. In the end I boiled the mimosa down to a measured 400ml and filtered the bark out of it which resulted in a remaining 250ml of brewed mimosa liquid to use that night. At about 23:15 I took the grinded rue on an empty stomach and swallowed it down with water (I hadn't eaten all day and didn't feel hungry) and I almost puked because of the filthy taste of it, man what a filthy taste this stuff has, horrible! I lit a beautiful candle, started the relaxing music (Liquid Mind) and dimmed the light. I decided to wait 45 minutes for the rue to get into my system before drinking the mimosa extract. At about 23:45 I started feeling the rue and felt quite ok with it, kinda soothing. Then at 0:00 it happened, suddenly my limbs were getting heavy and I got an urgent need to lie down, the world started to spin and the candle I lit started to move erratically to the movement of my eyes. At that moment I thought "I have to get the mimosa extract" but was so pinned down it was almost impossible to stand up for longer then 30 seconds. I got to the mimosa brew but was so heavy limbed I decided I couldn't drink that liquid even if I would and wend back to lay down on the couch just in time for some nice visions. When I looked into the room it was as if I was looking at it with only 3 frames per second and what I saw came with quite some delay. The spiritual visions were clear when I closed my eyes and disappeared when I opened them. I saw a message coming to me explaining that time was an illusion, it could be stopped, started and rewind but we normally only sense the forward motion of it as it comes in pulses at us. I saw the vision of 'time' getting from a 3D vision to a 4D vision and understood that under normal situations our brains cannot compute with 4D images but with this full focus there was power enough and the image was clear: there is much more out there then what we can normally see, everything has an extra dimension containing fast amounts of 'pulses'. I could ask questions and they were answered immediately. This questioning continued for some time until I felt a nausea coming up. I knew it was time for the bucked I put next to the couch and puked out the rue which was disgusting because once you puke it out you taste that awful taste again making you puke even more. After some heroic stumbling crusade from my couch to the water tap I washed my mouth and went back to crush on the couch, the visions were slowly drifting away and only some relaxed feeling stayed until about 5:00 after which I went to bed and fell asleep. So of course the question I have now is this: is it possible to get this from rue alone or was there just enough bodily-created DMT to start this limb feeling and visions or ...? If it's not the rue then I've got some theories: 1. I drink quite a lot of power drinks, maybe my body makes quite a lot of enzymes to break down the bad stuff in it, this also means that bodily-created DMT is broken down more quickly. This might result in the body creating extra DMT to keep levels up, when I took the rue, the DMT wasn't broken down anymore and for a small amount of time there was an extra stack of it. 2. Some say meditation gets your body into creating more DMT then usual, I meditate A LOT! Anyone know the answer to this?
