Natural and Synthesized Plant Medicines; its Effects, Uses & Methods of Application.

"For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure.” Rudolph Steiner

This concept is a belief shared by many curanderos and shamans throughout the world. In most tribal cultures, native plants are woven into the fabric of their everyday lives. Plants are used throughout the entire life process - from conception to death, for healing and for spiritual purposes. There are even certain plants that they consider as “power plants” - plants with extra-special abilities for healing, as well as opening spiritual portals. These power plants are often called “master teachers” or “teacher plants,” and are considered to be spiritual healers, as well as doctors of the flesh. There are a number of different power plants found throughout the Americas.

There are many different plants grown by Mother Nature that contain natural psychedelics. Also, there are those that are made in labs, aka synthesized. Natural psychedelic plants are found in trees, vines, seeds, fungi, leaves, and some amphibians. Nature is part of all we call God concept, Great Spirit, aka Source. If you observe animals: cats eat catnip to calm down and to experience euphoria, dogs eat grass to calm the stomach, and bears eat honey to get an immune boost. Humans consume plants for nutrition, healing, and spiritual advancement as well. Buddha had a Buddha garden with 108 psychedelic plants in it. Ancient Egyptians consumed Psilocybin Mushrooms, Blue Lotus, and Acacia to help increase their spiritual understandings. Christ spent time learning under druj priests in Egypt and served sacred "brew" to his disciples to experience a connection with God. Moses burned the Acacia tree to connect to a higher realm as well. The shamanic tradition of South America carried Ayahuasca, Buffo, Huachuma, Kambo, Hape, Sananga, and other sacred remedies to our days in South America, and its knowledge is already expanding globally through spiritual healing retreats.

By taking natural psychedelics in a proper ceremonial setting, you are opening the doors, aka portal, within yourself into the quantum, astral, aether field of your higher unlimited self that is one with God, aka Source. You become literally unlimited after you shed all your fears from your subconscious fear-programmed mind with the help of a spirit and a plant medicine practitioner, shaman, or healer, aka guide. With the sacred plant medicine help, your subconscious opens the gate to conscious, and you realize that you are part of a very smart creation in place, and you are able to self-heal all physical, emotional, and spiritual issues that limit you.

The main reason psychedelics are not fully legal is due to the fact that one who takes them will experience a consciousness awakening of the true self, will become free, and will not be able to be controlled by Western society or by any of fake fear programs. You start to see very clearly through your inner truth and the illusions of the programs around, and you get better at enjoying the game we call life.

The natural plant medicine, if it will call the soul to an awakening journey, will transform anyone’s life, expand their consciousness, heal physically and emotionally, spiritually connect to their higher self/soul, and remove all programs and illusions. It will also remove all fears that hold one from living the dream, negative traumatic states of the mind that attract the same future, and will let one see beyond the subconscious, experience oneness, realize all others are reflections of one mind, and make peace with self and all.

Moreover, it will let one find a creator within and change reality by becoming a master of one’s life. All thoughts and vibrations are self-managed, which will affect all others in their energy field to transform as well. Once we find courage to change self, we directly affect the collective, and together we change the world's vibration and change our collective reality to a higher conscious state of being.

The lab psychedelics can be safely synthesized without spirit disconnect or with the use of chemicals and a combination of natural spirits. They come in many forms, including tablets, blotter paper, dried mushrooms, powders, and crystalline powders. In my opinion, chemically composed types of psychedelics should be avoided unless they are directly synthesized from natural medicine. The purpose of the natural spirit-related experiences is to have a plant or other natural spirit guide you to your higher self in a ceremonial spiritual setting with a guide that you can trust to have a beautiful awakening experience.

Be careful with natural or non-natural spirits; the spirit that is taken affects your consciousness in some or many ways. For example, alcohol: it depends on where, by whom, and how this spirit was made and handled; it can carry negative or positive energy that will affect you for the time of its effects. It's important for you to know who made the medicine, how it was made, what it contains, how it will be consumed, and for what reasons.

The same questions you should ask yourself when meeting a shaman, medicine woman, or man, natural plant medicine practitioner. It's best to speak to any healer before you are planning to take the medicine by phone to see if this is a good guide for you. Pay attention to your heart when you speak with any healers; do they speak from their heart or mind? Do they sound money-oriented, or is their orientation on you, and do you feel some deeper connection, aka calling? Do they attend to you during the ceremony and help you with integrations? Do they provide their contact info to address any concerns or discuss further healing?

Types of natural psychedelics and properly synthesized ones (all non-addictive substances with the proper approach):

• LSD (Lysergic acid diethylamide) is made from a substance found in ergot, which is a fungus that infects rye.

• LCA - Morning Glory vines like Ayauhasca are both decoration and pervasive pest, but people may not be aware that a compound in the seeds of these plants is associated with drug effects similar to that of LSD. Morning Glory seeds contain alkaloids. The primary psychoactive substance in the morning glory plant is ergine, or D-lysergic acid amide (LSA). The spirit effects of LSA are somewhat like the effects of D-lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) from ergot; however, its more purgative which can be beneficial. Seeds of the morning glory plant have been used since ancient times in ritual ceremonies. For example, the Maya used the plant in a beverage to facilitate communication with the spirits to predict the future or to come to an understanding of otherwise incomprehensible events. Though eating morning glory flowers may not be directly toxic, in large enough quantities, consuming the seeds can lead to purge and to experience very deep visions. A concentrated LSA extract can be safely used ceremonially. Best to use the Hawaiian Baby Woodrose plant.

• Psilocybin is a naturally occurring substance found in mushrooms and is found in many parts of the world. There are many variety of magic mushrooms available and legal in some states and countries for consumption.

• Huachuma- Mescaline is derived from the Mexican peyote and San Pedro cactus and produces similar effects to LSD, naturally spirit containing.

• DMT (Diemethyltryptamine) is structurally similar to psilocin, an alkaloid found in psilocybin mushrooms. It can be synthesized in the laboratory with a possibility of the spirit staying intact. Psychotria viridis aka Chakruna, Acacia, Mimosa and DMT containing Plants Chart.

• Acacia and Jurema (Mimosa) - Sacred Medicine of the Spiritual Initiation into higher understandings practiced in ancient Egypt. I personally consider Acacia and Mimosa most gentle of all medicines in terms of their effects. With the microdose option you are able to madidate and be in full control of your body and the mind and still connect to the spirit.

• Peyote (Lophophora williamsii) is the most well-known and potent psychedelic cactus, although the smallest and slowest growing. Instead of growing upward to form a column, it grows as ‘buttons’ low to the ground. It has been used by Native Americans for over 5000 years.

• Buffo Alvarius - Toad Medicine – Gods/Spirit Molecule - 5-MeO-DMT (5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine). It’s found in several plants and in high concentrations in the secretion of the Sonoran Desert toad aka Bufo alvarius. It’s also produced by the human body and has been found in human blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. It’s usually inhaled through vaporizing. Like DMT, the experience is quick, requires one to sompletely surrender and loose control of the ego, starting just a few seconds after ingestion and lasting about twenty to thirty minutes. Also, can be safely synthesized in the lab with the ceremonial approach.

• Ayahuasca, the Holy Medicine of the Holy and Divine Mother Ayahuasca, is most popularly used in South America prepared by the Holy Banisteriopsis Caapi Vine, which is known to not only provide the MAOI, which allow the DMT from Plants to cross the blood-brain barrier, but also impact in many ways. Another popular MAOI which has been in practice by various communities for ages is most popularly known as Syrian Rue aka harmala, scientific name of which is Peganum Harmala, known as Esphand/Isphand/Isfand/Spand/Sipand throughout the Africa, Middle-East and Asia.

• The Syrian Rue has been known to be applied as a medicine and an intoxicant in Iran and neighboring regions and is considered as an aphrodisiac by the Turks and others. The seeds are known to be effective for apotropaic reasons. There is archaeological evidence from the Caucasus region of the Syrian Rue being digested, burnt and inhaled from 5th millennium BCE. The Rue has been considered as the chief Medicinal Plants with numerous purposes, and as one of the main ingredients of antidotes. The Syrian Rue contains almost equal quantities of the alkaloids Harmine and Harmaline, and Tetrahydroharmine (THH), which are B-carboline derivatives, belonging to a class of compounds which act as Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs). Harmaline can be synthesized with spirit intact.

What is Shamanism?

Shamanism is the oldest documented spiritual belief system, dating back 40,000 years. It’s practiced in every indigenous culture across the planet. It is an open-source practice rooted in the presence, gratitude, and the inter-connectivity of all things.

The term “shamanism” evolved from the Evenk or Tungus language of North Asia. It was introduced into the west after Russia conquered the Khanate of Kazan in 1552. Upon learning about other religions with similar features, Western scholars applied the term to indigenous religions in Asia, Australia, and the Americas.

A “shaman” refers to a person who makes journeys to other realities or “worlds” in an altered state of consciousness. The journeys are intended to heal, get information, or do other things. In fact, if shamans do not get results, they eventually are not used by their people.

Technically, Shamanism is not actually a religion. It can coexist with religions. For example in Siberia, Shamanism is conducted within Buddhism and Lamaism, and in Japan within Buddhism. Shamans are normally found in cultures which believe that there are spirits. Shamans interact with spirits to obtain results like healing.

Shamans do not exclude other methods of healing. The shaman’s purpose is to make a person well. If this can coordinate with modern medicine or technology, most shamans would have no issue.

Shamans are also called: medicine man/woman, healer, natural plant medicine practitioner, guide.

How natural Plant Medicine is used?

Natural psychedelic and not containing teacher plants have been used since ancient times by various cultures throughout the world for their mystical and spiritual associations. LSD (morning glory), magic mushrooms, Mescaline and DMT are usually swallowed, smoked or inhaled. Ayahuasca, Acacia, Syrian rue are usually cooked or brewed into a ‘tea’ and served ceremonially by the shaman/medicine woman/man, healer, guide or plant medicine practitioner with unconditional intentions to help one see self.

Morning Glory, Mescaline ingested tea duration is about 10-12 hours. Ayahuasca experience lasts about 6-8 hours. Acacia/Mimosa about 4-6, and psilocybin depending on dosage about 3-6 hours.

Occasionally, some of the plants may be mixed with tobacco or cannabis and smoked. Mescaline is usually swallowed. Peyote buttons may be ground into a powder and smoked with cannabis or tobacco. The buttons can also be chewed or soaked in water to produce a liquid to make a tea as well.

Buffo Alvarus the toad peptides is inhaled thought the use of inhaler and the experience is usually very shortly lived about 15-30 min vs other plant medicines that are ingested as a teas.

Impact of mood and environment:

Natural or synthesized teacher plant medicines that affect a person’s mental state can also have varied effects depending on a person’s mood (often called the ‘set’) or the environment they are in (the ‘setting’).

Set: a person’s state of mind, previous encounters with psychedelics, and expectations of what’s going to happen. For example, feelings of stress or anxiety before using psychedelic drugs may result in an unpleasant experience (bad journey).

Setting: the environment in which someone consumes psychedelics – whether it’s known and familiar, who they’re with, if they’re indoors or outdoors, the type of music and light. For example, using psychedelics in a calm, quiet and relaxed environment can lead to, or contribute to, a pleasant experience but being in a noisy, crowded place may result in a negative experience.

Being in a good state of mind, with trusted guide/healer/shamanic practitioner and a safe environment before taking psychedelics reduces the risk of having a bad journey.

Challenging Journey

Sometimes you can experience what some would call a ‘bad journey’, which is frightening and disturbing but only to the conscious mind and its all worth the experience because that’s how we release fears; only by acknowledging the fear and moving from subconscious state into the conscious we can release it forever.

Not all your journeys will be challenging. Each time you shed your fears, programs and traumas you release it from your subconscious and there are no need to deal with it again. With the proper guide who knows how to watch over your vibrations during the experience with the songs/drums/music and go with you through more difficult purges you should easily go over your fears and get back into higher vibrational state of being of unconditional love and peace. Proper guide will make sure you work through shedding your old fears and programs safely and joyfully and will be able to bring you back if you go to deep. Once you shed all that does not resonates with you highest self you will have a clear and focused vision into the future of unlimited self.

Flashbacks

The most common beautiful long-term effect of psychedelic use is the ‘flashback’. Flashbacks are a re-experience of the journey and can occur days, weeks, months and even years later.

Flashbacks can be triggered by many factors, subjects, people or things that may remind you of your experience. Also, it can be due to your soul simple looking to reconnect for more downloads aka inner understandings to bring you new discoveries about self so stay calm if this occurs and contact your guide for further directions.

Mixing natural plant medicines or synthesized with other drugs:

• The effects of mixing psychedelics with other drugs, including alcohol, prescription medications and over-the-counter medicines, are not recommended.

• Mixing psychedelics with stimulant drugs increases the stimulant effect and can further increase heart rate and place the body under extreme stress. Stimulants can also increase anxiety which can lead to a negative experience.

• Mixing psychedelics with benzodiazepines or any antidepressants can increase anxiety, paranoia, sadness and rapid heart rate.

• Never mix any psychedelics with antianxiety prescription drugs containing MAOI it can be lethal.

• Before taking any psychedelics please tell your guide what other drugs you are taking for further directions. Be honest what you use or you may suffer the consequences or have a very horrific journey that make emotional state of being even worse.
  

DIET is the most important part. before the ceremony:

• You should abstain from any alcohol and other strong spirits minimum 2 weeks, better 4 if possible and over 2-6 months for some prescription drugs for the best journey (discuss all details with your guide). Do not consume any meat 2 weeks before, it carries dead energy spirit that will pull you down vibrationally. You can have some eggs and fish but a week prior to the ceremony do not eat anything except rice, beans, veggies, fruits, tofu, all family of potatoes, cabbage, all berries, fruits, juices, smoothies, wheat or gluten free base breads.

• NO kombucha, saukraft, kimchi or any pickled or marinated foods including blue cheese and alike 1 week before. Exclude bananas and avocados the day prior. DO not eat anything that is showing rotten signs, try to buy and cook all fresh, put loving energy when you cook and eat into the food you consume. 3-7 days before the ceremony do not consume commercial salt or sugar, you can have honey, agave, or little bit of only natural salt if needed. Drink only fruit or veggie smoothies the day before.

• The day of the ceremony cease to eat and concentrate on the ceremony intentions. You can have a little bit of fresh non acidic vegan or fruit juice but the best just drink coconut water to maintain electrolytes. Take Epson salt bath the day prior and/or do the Kambo cleanse to help with detox.

• DO not release sexual energy at least a week prior or best as long as you can before the ceremony. You can still have intimacy with the partner but please hold on to your sacred oil intact, it will help you to raise your frequency much faster to the higher state of your consciousness.
  

The day of the ceremony recommendations:

• Make sure you have a journal to right down your intentions prior and visions during the ceremony. This will ease the integration process later.

• Drink a lot of water and/or coconut water but cease to drink anything hour before the ceremony.

• Take a shower with natural soup, do not use any deodorant or lotions, do not put makeup.

• Wear light weight light colored clothes, cotton, hemp, bamboo made. White to connect to the true self, oneness and source, yellow to work through fears and gain power back, saffron to increase life energy, green helps you to open your heart, blue to activate your throat chakra and speak your truth, lavender or purple to access energy of your 3rd eye. Black to experience nothingness.

• Leave all jewelry at home, any metals or crystals may interfere with your own frequencies and keep looping you back into your mind interfering with your energy and the spirit.
