Re: Albert Hofmann, father of drug LSD, dies in Switzerland
Thu, May 1, 2008 - 11:06 AMLast night I got a great message from the beyond that Leary passed on to me ( I lived with him in 93 and am a medicine woman, and have been in contact with him after he passed as many others also have) He said he and Albert were happy to see on another again. The image I received was they were dancing a happy dance! -

Re: Albert Hofmann, father of drug LSD, dies in Switzerland
Tue, May 13, 2008 - 7:46 AMhmm, while I have never been one to accept any "afterlife" as a truth...
I have over the years experienced some pretty amazing things... including telepathy, astral plane conjunctions..etc..
if anyone wants to test me on them, then they are always welcome... usually they make so much common sense that the line between common sense and telepathy blurs
this includes a broadcast of information which direclty parallels the Keys of Enoch by James Hurtak and several encounters with a post passage Dr. Tim involving hieroglyphics and holographic image transductions...
I just posted this over at the psychonauts forum.. someone was asking how to prepare for a psychedelic trip with synthetic LSD versus their previous experiences with organic mushrooms..
******************************************************************************************************************************************************
LSD is not truly synthetic...
methodone or methadose are synthetic... they are opiates which are chemically combined in a lab from other unrelated chemicals... like pesticides...
no, LSD is a TRULY organic derivative... it should be called a refined organic...
it amplifies sensation and removes filters.. and allows things to conjoin in new ways (angles/vectors...etc)
the best preparation is a safe sanctuary/breakdown spot away from people just in case your child hood horrors and emotions come to life
if, for instance, those amplified emotions, etc come to light, then you will have to experience them... and will come out stronger and reborn..
the best thing though is to realize that everyone goes thorugh these things and to simply ride the experience.. you spine and brain are like an antennae which is opening up and reconfiguring...
it fades after everything dilates and then closes back up again.. in the middle it is a light based energy phantasmagoria
the old story is that the Greeks used ergot based potions at the festivals of Demeter... this is related to the word DIOGENE.. which means born again...

Hofmann's Potion & CBC's Coverage of Hofmann's Controversial Legacy
Thu, May 8, 2008 - 10:44 AMLong before Timothy Leary urged a generation to "tune in, turn on and drop out," D-lysergic acid diethylamide (or LSD) was being used by researchers to understand the human mind. Discovered in 1943 by Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann, LSD was hailed as a powerful tool to treat alcoholism and drug addiction and to provide a window into schizophrenia and other mental illnesses.
Much of that pioneering research was done by the team of Humphry Osmond, Abram Hoffer and Duncan Blewett, all working in Saskatchewan, Canada. While some researchers were establishing the medical benefits of LSD, others - like author Aldous Huxley - promoted the drug as a powerful tool for mental exploration and self-understanding. Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner and Ram Dass (then known as Richard Alpert) became popular heroes after the university cancelled their Harvard research project into psychedelics.
