Rendered in Poser7
This pic was inspired by Ayahuasca (not that ive had the opportunity)recently been reading The Cosmic Serpent: DNA and the Origins of Knowledge. All I can say is if you can get a hold of this book, READ IT!! It will honestly change your outlook/view on what and who we are...
Has anyone here got any stories about ayahuasca? Id love to hear them!!
Ayahuasca (Quechua, pronounced [ajaˈwaska]) is any of various psychoactive infusions or decoctions prepared from the Banisteriopsis spp. vine, native to the Amazon Rainforest (which is also called ayahuasca). The resulting drinks are pharmacologically complex and used for shamanic, folk-medicinal, and religious purposes.
Traditional Ayahuasca brews are always made with Banisteriopsis caapi as an MAOI, although DMT sources and other admixtures vary from region to region. There are several varieties of caapi, often known as different "colors", with varying effects, potencies, and uses.
DMT admixtures:
Psychotria viridis (Chakruna) - leaves
Diplopterys cabrerana (Chaliponga, Banisteriopsis rusbyana) - leaves
Psychotria carthagensis (Amyruca) - leaves
Other common admixtures:
Justicia pectoralis
Brugmansia (Toé)
Nicotiana rustica (Mapacho, variety of tobacco)
Ilex guayusa, a relative of yerba mate
