Salvia D. in Mazatec culture ...Literature?
    #14543901 - 06/01/11 01:03 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

I'm looking for some good source(preferably literature/culture, not science) talking about Salvia as an entheogen, being a spiritual or useful plant. 

Any story or myth about Salvia would be amazing, but I think this would be hard to find.  Something saying how the Mazatecs viewed the plant culturally and/or spiritually would be great.



I know the Mazatecs are the indigenous most well-documented to use Salvia, but anything would be great. 
When Gordon Wasson & Albert Hofmann went to the Mazatecos to learn about salvia, some 'curandera' (possibly Maria Sabina) shared some branches with them, but these reports seem to be more about the botany of the plant, instead of what the people thought of the experience.
Maria Sabina is a well-known Mazatec curandera, but I don't know of anything documenting her talking about Salvia.


Any input or links would be :thumbup: appreciated :pipesmoke:

There unfortunately is no real information as far as im aware on this topic, but i can tell you that according to Terrence Mckenna the mazatecs have no name for salvia and claim its only been known about for 2 generations (id estimate no more than 150 years) i find this very odd. Maybe it is possible the mazatecs themselves do not know what to make of salvia.
