    My only advice is regarding time. It's a lot! This really surprised me about LSD and was the only thing that made me uncomfortable. I was not used to such lengthy 12h trips and 16h to normal state.

    Take it in the morning after digesting a good breakfast, so that you can eat at midnight when you have hunger.

    Tripping at night in LSD is amazing but it really destroys your night cycle and you'll be very tired the next days. Although you mustr try it at least once, maybe not the first time

    Should I use a trip sitter? 

    You seem experienced so not compulsory. Have someone in stand by that knows you are tripping and can offer face to face help in case you need it.

    How are shrooms and LSD different from each other? I don't want any surprises. 

    There are plenty of posts about this in the forum. Search them in the search function.

    I'd say the main difference is time, 2x mushrooms trip. It's also cleaner and more electric and yogic.

    Can I walk outside in nature? I love looking at trees and clouds melting. I really enjoyed the visual effects of shrooms.

    Yeah sure, not in the come up though. It also comes by waves, so when you are stable in the trip feel free to walk in nature but don't drive or walk for a long time and get maybe some water.

    Do i just put the tabs in my mouth and it will work?

    Best way is sublingual for maybe 15min or when you feel like just eating it go ahead. This way acts faster.

    @Leo Gura Are you planning to reexplore the Salvia experience in the future? Does it offer anything benefical other than extremely weird experience?

    I'd like to hit here with the: Please Leo! 

    Salvia has no similarities to any other substance I've tried. Absolutely unique. The most similar drugs in effect to Salvia are extremely poisonous like Datura, with life long damaging effects. Salvia on the other hand is completeley safe healthwise.

    Consider trying Sage Goddess Emerald Essence salvia tincture. It may offer a more suitable approach for the kind of work you are interested in.

    Please consider using Salvia again. It is the key for understanding the mechanisms of how reality is constructed. There are too many trip reports of people living alternative lifes for years, both as humans and non human entities. I have personally felt this immense potential of thread zipper machinery existential construction on Salvia. Reality cracks and opens up. Why not see what Salvia has to offer?

    The last psychedelic in the rabbit hole... The untouchable one

    Recommendations about How to:

    Do it with a bong and a torch lighter.

    Bong to cool the air. Torch lighter necessary because you need a 200º degres or above to fully burn all the chemicals in the salvia leaves or extract.

    About extracts... It's a mess and it's very hard to know how much you are getting. Stick to a supplier, start slow and go up in potency and quantity. 5x to 10x to 20x.

    Important considerations, people have wildly different tolerance levels to salvia. You may not feel anything with 10x or you may loose your mind with 10x. So better to explore carefully in this regard.

    As Salvia, in the United States, is not regulated under the Controlled Substances Act. I think its safe to show the safest most profesional and secure vendor. If any mod doesn't like this feel free to delete de post, but I don't think it breaks any forum rule, legal company in the usa since 1989 and legal substance in most countries due to its unique pharmacology that doesn't have any similarity it with other psychedelics

    http://sagewisdombotanicals.com/

    This company is pushing forward the research on salvia and they have invented a product they have called: 

    Sage Goddess Emerald Essence

    Quote

    This ultra-concentrated tincture of Salvia divinorum has been carefully prepared using a unique new separation process developed by Daniel Siebert. This innovative process selectively extracts and concentrates a group of natural leaf components that enhance the solubility and absorption of the active principal, salvinorin A. All intermediary extraction solvents have been completely removed so that the finished product contains nothing but premium grade Salvia divinorum, grain alcohol and water.

    The point is that smoking salvia is usually very strong, very quick and very shocking. Taking it orally is a pain in the ass. Chewing leaves for hours to get a mild effect.

    However, this Salvia tincture could be the key to experiencing Salvia in a new way.

    @Davino hello,

    that's not my situation, i've tried shrooms and i will try soon lsd before salvia (which is not even legal in my area :,) 

    i will not do salvia without some experience before, i was just looking for advices.

    btw thanks a lot for your message. ♥️♥️♥️

    Happy to hear you have made the step. Sorry for being too confrontational. I rarely am, except when Salvia is concerned. I prefer to sound rude than maybe giving the wrong image about Salvia.

    I'm more than happy to offer advice on the topic. 

    If you are searching for a high quality written source then I recommend you:

    • Sage Spirit - Salvia Divinorum and the Entheogenic Experience by Martin W. Ball
    • Salvia Divinorum: Doorway to Thought-Free Awareness by J. D. Arthur

     

    I'll give you extracts here and there of work I've published in the forum and recollected.

    Quote

    So the 4 dangerous Salvia factors for me are:

    1 Total Loss of memory.

    2 Total Loss of body movement (Example)

    3 Salvia feels Alien

    4 Nasty visceral Ego-deaths. It's called the backdoor of Death

    So, why is memory a problem? You forgot you took any drug, you are tripping balls you don't remember life being any other way, what is, is the only explanation you have, and it feels weird and unnatural. Scientific studies show that they trigger the same receptors of craving that heroin addicts have, among many other things, so the experience is Truly Amazing but there is this strange background noise that you cannot put your finger on.

    2 You can crack your skull open while your POV is an elve mechanic world. In DMT that could happen but body stays (usually) calm and relaxed lying down. You can find crazy videos in the internet of people absolutely losing control of the body and doing the weirdest things you can imagine.

    3 It feels weird man. Like 5meo is hella crazy but feels home you see. Salvia is hella crazy and feels weirdly exotic like it has nothing to do whatsoever with anything in the Human-frame.

    4 You think you've had an ego death till you have an ego death in Saliva

    Extra: They call it the yonqui humbler, imagine how strong it is.

     

    I don't have more than 10 Salvia Trips under my belt but I took the decisions to leave it aside. Just for the one reason that I couldn't make any sense of it, so unique, so itself. In fact, I'm in love with salvia, it's such a profund mystery that only a handful of humans have gone into.

     

    The most profound trip I've ever had on Saliva:

    Title: Channel from me to I

    I like to sum up my trips with a picture to get the essence and remember better. This was the picture I choose about that trip.

    Imagen sin título.png

     

    I'll also post one of my first trips on Salvia, never before shared, for you:

     

    Quote

    Title: Introspection

    The come up is very rapid, but it didn't feel intense to me, at least at this dosage. Overall, it was quite pleasant, except for the multitude of things that, from the normal state, seem insignificant but from the Slavia state are from another world. The initial contact is a significant full-body load, and the nullification of correct linear thinking occurs unless you are in a perfect environment. External stimuli don't work with Salvia, not at all. It is a completely introspective plant, reaching levels I had never experienced before. Even a gentle flute sound in the background is bothersome and pulls you out of your inner realms. Salvia is purely introspective, playing with internal stimuli, exploring the richness of our inner reality. On the other hand, when I lay down, I felt comfortable with the come up and was aware of myself. I had a peak of visuals as I closed my eyes, but they were not the main thread. I noticed that Salvia was green and good, not entirely like the reputation it had. It was going to treat me well. However, I still felt that Salvia itself was very egoless, without much noise on the lens of the experience it offers. It is more about what it teaches you or directs you towards, at least at this dosage. I liked that; it wasn't so much about the substance but the experience. It's something I'll definitely have to reflect on for my other journeys where the substance itself plays a significant role.

    I made a connection with entities, and we communicated clearly without any issues. They showed me how scared I was without any reason and that my expectations towards reality make fear not anything in itself. They also taught me to connect with myself, emphasizing that I would find the real answers there because they too extracted them from my complex system. They were merely catalysts for always-present internal realities. Their advice was for me to connect with myself, feel internally, and they also pointed out my internal layers. They emphasized that everything depended on the depth at which I wanted to address the issue.

    Next time, pranayama before Salvia, and do it while lying down. Thank you, Holy Salvia, Eyes of the Shepherd. I have been enchanted, and I hope we get to know each other more.

    How conscious are you?

    Let's do an EXAM!

    Many years ago Leo recommended the following exercises as handy tool for self-assesment.

    So the exam begins Now! There are 30 Questions or Facets in the video.

    Please grab a paper and a pencil. 

    Question: Have I awoken to ............?

    From 0 to 10 how deeply have I awoken to ............?

    (For reference take 0 as nothing and 10 as the facet you have awoken more deeply to. As our personal experience is all we have and this is in the end for ourselves. Let's say you are a pro of no-self, your favourite facet, then that becomes your upper limit and contrast it with other facets like love for example. This is helpful and reduces self-bias and deception)

    I have experienced this facet in agregate with ............

    (Facets shine light onto each others and having awakenings to different facets simultaneously opens up another whole game. Maybe you awoke to love and to intelligence but you are lacking the intelligence in love and the love in intelligence. This goes on with agregates of 3 facets, 4 facets and so on)

    Extra points: Have you discovered more facets to Awakening?

    Good luck! Please report your results

    You are doing salvia because it is the only psychedelic legal in your area. But it's not the right tool for you.

    It is easier to get through the struggle of finding psychedelics, in the streets or in the research chemical market, than dealing with Salvia as your first psychedelic and then just trowing away all this domain of investigation called psychedelics.

    Because Salvia doesn't feel good, nor it is easy to handle either by newbies or experts. It's always intense and involves a lot of discomfort. The benefits are good but so outside your paradigm and past experiences that you will not be able to integrate them properly.

    Salvia is not a good option for you. Why are you so much afraid of finding real psychedelics? See what limitations, fears, anxieties are stopping you. Asses mindfully the risks and do your best to find mushrooms/truffles AL-LAD/LSD or even MDMA or Ketamine. All of this are a good entry point, but definetely not Salvia. It is better to wait and not do any psychedelics than to try Salvia and just get the wrong image and taste of what psychedelics are

    This feels too much of a personal question that you are trying to divert to the macroscale.

    This question is about you.

    How did having the parents you had affect you?

    How did your economic situation shape you as a person?

    What can you do to mitigate and grow beyond these difficulties, using them as a trampoline?

    How can I let go of the envy I have for others that were more lucky in life?

    How can I heal my inner child that still suffers from all the conditioning in my early years?

    What is the source of my suffering? What am I avoiding to look at? What is the most painfull aspect of this situation?

    How can I accept what happened to me? How can I love myself? How can I love my parents that didn't know any better?

    And so on.. Btw there is a specific answer to your initial question but it is not what will quench your thirst. Doing the work above will.

    Thank you all for your answers.

    I finally figured out what was happening to me. After doing shadow work it seems that pretty nasty stuff came from places I didn't even know where there.

    Parts of myself that I had denied, repressed, hidden, hated, fought against, changed, silenced... Just appeared again into the light of my awareness.

    However, before the fragmentations fully came up to the surface, a myriad of feelings came before. Like some ice cube from deep inside the ocean just started rising towards the surface.

    The purge was unexpected and felt bad honestly. I didn't understand why out of nowhere I felt so empty, depressed, unmotivated, my mind kidnapped by many long forgotten fantasies.... Afterwards, I started seeing those in the shadow fragments of myself that where coming to light. 

    That fragment of me that had to be brutally shut up to keep going on with my university studies and finish what I started even though some voice kept saying that was not meant for me. That lost fragment of myself is being reintagrated now. As Carl Jung says to integrate the shadow there is no easy technique fit for all but rather it's like the art of diplomacy. Shadow integration is then, a deeply personal proccess of negotiation with oneself. 

    Another fragment of myself that popped was just the incredible ammount of sexual hunger for other women, as well as this need of being a player. It felt like this primitive masculine women conqueror drive, long lost and locked up, was for the first time freed. A part of myself that I strictly repressed in my early years of the spiritual path for being unholy and lustful. This fragment of my psyche was even more denied and repressed in order to have a healthy happy long lasting relationship with my woman. Which makes total sense but there is a price in pushing parts of your personality into the unconscious because they are unacceptable to society, family, friends or partner. That price is wholeness and individuation; and finally consciousness, self-awareness, self-understanding, self-acceptance and self-love. The process of negotiation is obviously on, to integrate in a healthy and holistic way all aspects of my psyche.

    Shadow work is very wild and I'm just dipping my toes in the water. I feel more human and humbled. Discovering that you are not the rigtheous image that you have of yourself is tough. Realising you have this virtuous self image because you pushed all your bad qualities or unacceptable traits into your deep unconscious, is even harder. In the unconscious your monsters and demons grow, pulling the threads and sabotaging your life. Kidnapping your mind and actions for some time, because as parts of yourself they inevitable will manifest sooner or later. When the ego, a fragmented part of your psyche goes back online will not understand why you did what you did. I want to study this career and make this business work, why am I sabotaging myself? This is what I really want! Will say the ego. If I love her why do I feel atraction for other women? I really love her, she means everything to me! Will say the ego. However, the full psyche and human-self, as the compilation of all fragments, is more self contradictory than the little cherry picked psychic parts that ended up making your conscious personality, ego and righteous self image. Till all fragments are not healed, worked through, cried into and out of them, integrated healthily and unified, there is no hope for wholeness and individuation. You will never be yourself, as a human! Not even mentioning anything transhuman. You won't be yourself, wow. That's failing as a human. What job more do you have in here, than to discover who you are and live the best life in tune with who you are? How can you do that if you don't wanna look inside that hidden dark humid closet in your psyche?

    Maybe its time to clean those corpses you have buried in the shadows...

    There is no difference between the earth and this body. I can even eat by placing (the food) on the ground or anywhere. The rules of conduct, devotion, cleanliness, dutifulness, etc. are needed for your learning; that is why things like these happen in me.

    You may want to remove this body from your mind. But never will this body go away, goes away, and had gone away. One who loved this body once cannot wipe out the remembrance of this body even if he tries a hundred times. This body is ever in his memory and will remain as well.

    There are days you feel good and there are days you don't feel that good.

    In life, there are days when you feel better than others. This is The Law of Life. We'll get everything.

    There are days you know why you feel bad and others that you don't know why. Nevertheless, you feel the way you do, despite understanding it or not.

    There are days you know why you feel good, and others that you don't know why you feel good.

     

    What do you do when you feel bad? 

    This may seem a trivial question, but it's not. All logic and mind masturbation flies out of the window when you feel down.

    So do you feel aversion to feeling bad and do things to change your state into a more desirable one?

    Should you just go through it mindfully? Feeling and letting it be the way it is?

    Should one get beyond like and dislike? Establishing oneself in equanimity?

    Should one enjoy the contrast of life? Accepting the nature of being human in a full embrace and love for existence?

     

    Be mindful of answering from a happy state. Most of those answers don't correlate with other states. You may think they do but they don't when you are in them, you see clearly and you are humbled. If certain conditions are not met your life philosophy just doesn't fly, that's a hard pill to swallow but is nevertheless the case.

    Totally agree, it's very dangerous if done without care. It's a tool with its lights and darkness. It's good to point it out because I know most people would misunderstand it. One tool more in the tool box, that's all.

     I have decided to create my own compilation of the most profound revelations about the human dilemma, Life, Reality and ultimately God.

    You are also free to post but I do ask you to make this place of the highest quality standard.

    This, I believe, is the most appropiate place to start from:

    Shivapuri baba was God-Realized and T3 Spiral Dynamics. Truly one of a kind. Read about his life, you will be surprised.

    The Knower of Brahman becomes Brahman

     

    I have found many westerners to be allergic to connecting with God via a Guru form, due to conditioning as individualism and French Revolution hangover. I have no such restrictions, and I have found that it is a potent facet and tool for awakening that most people just miss. Which is funny because it is the way people have been historically awakening for millennia. The same way you catch a cold, you may easily catch glimpses by being near a high consciousness being.
