This is what I've believed for a while. The Psychedelic revolution hasn't even started. I'm under the belief that within 10-20 years research will turn up psychedelics that make LSD seem like childs play.

To be honest with you all, I sincerely feel that given the opportunity I could make myself a very beneficial person to the psychedellic community.

I've always known I had the capacity to do something great... I just never was presented with the opportunity, or if I did... I failed to recognize it.

But, given the resources... I would love to sow a few acres of land with peruvian torch, bury a shipping crate, and start doing large scale extractions to produce mescaline on a scale that would allow it to be distributed in small quantities around the region.

But that's a pipe dream for me, nothing more. If I beleived it was feasible to actually do it, I wouldn't be talking openly about it

LSD Chemist would also be a lovely occupation. But I wouldn't dare claim that I intended to be one... I like to dream about it, however.

I'm of the opinion that there are two major circumstances that need to be met for another revolution to begin. Number one is that we all need to come closer together, and unite as a single community that takes part in society as a whole to exert our influence and claim our rights. Number two is that we need to rebuild a network of honest men to distribute the substances to the people, make them available to those who seek them, share them in an honest and progressive manner that can allow others to benefit from their power. If that happens, we may indeed start to see some changes occur.

Mainstream society brands psychedellic drug users as a notch or two above the insane. There is no flourishing culture of accepted use of psychedellics.

Konnrade: this is the exact same situation as in the 1960s. You can bet that three quarters of the people at woodstock were OTD-ers. The hippy ideal was wiped out the moment hip culture became mainstream.

Most hippies were all about getting fucked up, only they decorated that with hip talk. The core of the hippy movement had to see how their ideals were taken down not just by the government but more hurtfully by great multitudes of "hippies" whom absolutely did not care.

In 1969 teenage girls whored themselves out for LSD which they injected along with heroin.
And what was up with "hippies" who boo'd and humiliated their brothers and peers who had fought and survived the Vietnam war?
It wasn't all groovy in the 1960s.

The majority of the youth culture is *not* idealistic, not in the 1960s and not now. Don't fall for a romanticised image of the hippie era.

Konnrade, the Revolution needs you *now* and not in the past. Look for the thing you can do, and proceed doing that. One of the things I can do is be a moderator at the Shroomery, one of the frontline trenches in the War on Drugs, and that's precisely what I'm doing

Don't worry about LSD synthesis, thats being taken care of. Don't weep about the demise of the RC's, they weren't that great and the ones that are will forever be with us. The catalyst of the current revolution is 4-HO-DMT, homegrown in grain jars, on compost, woodchips or collected from the wild.

If you want to be a person fueling the revolution, distribute sporeprints to hand-picked people willing to start growing.

The Movement is on steam in North America, Europe, Japan and Australia so focus on Africa, Asia and South America if you in any way can.

But the 1960s have shown that Psychedelics are vital, but not (like said) the be all, end all. Psychedelics are NEUTRAL, you must remember that. You can bet KKK people have vivid technicolor daydreams of lynching black people when they are high on LSD.

One of the HUGE mistakes of the 1960s was that they though LSD would make everything right for all. It was tragically naive and partly to blame for the era of vinegar, ammonia, iodine and disco that followed in its wake.

Psychedelics won't "turn you on" to what's righteous and good, but it can bring you in tune with yourself and through that the world, if it is used right.

Ultimately Psychedelics are mostly beneficial when they are taken with the right attitude. and THAT has to be cultivated more than psychedelics need to.

If you try to make people "see the light" and succeed than you are more valuable to the revolution than an elfspice merchant.

Now, in 2006, we are partly above and partly underground. We need to get back to the grassroots of what started the Psychedelic revolution: turning people on one by one in your livingroom or in nature. Be a warrior of words, spreading the Light in conversations you witness or are part of, writing a letter to the editor. Teaching friends how to cultivate, giving away Salvia and Cactus cuttings to everyone who wants to have one, whether they will use them or just like them as a pretty houseplant. Start a website, or enhance one like you are doing right here.

Gather a close circle of friends and do enlightening psychedelic Sessions together, working at each other's personal and spiritual growth.

Don't flee into a past that never was:
Konnrade, we need you NOW!

Does anyone else know what I mean by this?

Was I part of the generation before mine, I would have lived through the heyday of the counter-culture movement, the saturation of the nation (like so very much blotter paper) with LSD, the almost mainstream topic of psychedellic drug use and enlightenment.

But, being born when I was... it took me 18 years of my life to even learn how to get ahold of mushrooms... and I had to grow them myself. LSD is hard to come by unless you've made the right friends, mescaline must be self-made by an involved (but fun) extraction process. Mainstream society brands psychedellic drug users as a notch or two above the insane. There is no flourishing culture of accepted use of psychedellics. There are pockets everywhere, but no real significant culture that wields much power.

We don't come together en-masse to voice our opinions and excercise our rights. We may participate in our own communities, but we're no longer a nationwide presence, more like a conglomerate of somewhat affiliated local societies.

Oh, to think of what I've missed out on
