RE: Metaphysics of a Salvia experience
I enjoy reading about entheogenic experiences, specially about Salvia.
It is indescribably hard to write about it though, as, like you said, words completely fail when you live such a unique and eerie experience, it is just ineffable.
You did an astounding job describing it, however. I felt (more than imagined) how your experience must have been like, and I do hope that you venture in the experience again, this time with a sober state of mind... If you do, you need to share it with us!
Psychedelics can offer profound benefits to anyone looking to enhance their consciousness, but it is great thinkers as yourself that can bring back something from the experience, and communicate it in ways that can inspire and benefit people who would not be willing to go into those extreme experiences.
Thanks for your writing!
PD. This is a little Salvia plant that I've been struggling to keep alive and healthy:
Thanks for the kind words! It's not what I normally write about. But, honestly, I'm sick of writing about what other people tell me to.
I will certainly report back on any other experiences I have - although it's hard with this plant in being technically illegal in most states in Australia.
It's sad to hear that. I hear Australia has particularly strict rules regarding this sort of plants, even Kratom is illegal! (I think)
Some of us are working on that - but it's a long process. It's practically a national sport to be an alcoholic, but anything else and you could be in deep trouble. Even our medical cannabis schemes have been deliberately structured to make it almost impossible to get access.
Cute! How long before it's ready to harvest?
Still a while man. This comes from a cutting I made from a much bigger plant I used to have. My Salvia plants keep dying on me!
