Level 5 trips are possible, but you want to be sure of your mindset before going there. The best way to get there is to not eat any shrooms for at least a month if not two, then take a very large dose. For me, it was as if my psyche was a mirror... as the trip came up the mirror fell and shattered... billions of little me's all talking in my head at once... thats about all I remember from it (that I can put into words at least).

I have had a level five or really high level 4 trip once ... unless you have the most stable mind I wouldn't recommend it as it is just frightening -- reality truly is reduced to shreds for a few hours ... that's something I could never enjoy and most people couldn't even deal with, suicide could seem like a possibility. just take the most extreme caution if you are going to mess with these kinds of trips, it is just too unbelievable for words. on my harshest level 4/5 trip all of reality was reduced to a grid in front of my face. the room i was in no longer existed, society didn't exist, just a grid in front of my face telling me everything I have ever known is a lie and now I am in a true reality. for me it was pure ectsacy and enlightenment, it was PURE hell.
best of luck to you, and tell us how it goes

ok so i had one trip that ended with me thinking i was back in my mothers womb and that i was being born into nothingness backwards......not cool. i died that time. it was insanity. needless to say, i did not enjoy myself. that trip i don't consider to be be a level 5, though, despite it's intensity. the level 5 i had consisted of a complete and utter lack of "me". i was totally aware of the hatred, but experienced it inevitably as love. i felt the hardships, yet realized their worth. still, none of these realizations mattered. there was no "I" to care either way. the funny thing was that when that occured(when i reached that state) i stopped hallucinating. and this was only about an hour or two into the trip. the best trip of my life. if it helps any, i was alone when i was tripping.

I've always tried to attain a level 5 (egoloss). It's a very beautiful experience in my opinion, once you learn about it. The first time is scary at first, when all the attachments you have mean absolutely nothing. I've done it off of 10 and 14 grams of psilocybe cubensis. You have to be ready, but really there is no way to be prepared...It's impossible to be prepared for it, just take it as it comes.

Here are some instructions I had a dream about. These instructions are 'balanced' to the strength of the shrooms my friend grows. You may need to adjust the values a bit to fine tune the results to your own product:
Step 1, Decide how hard you want to trip...
Level 1: (L=0.029 mg/kg)
This level produces a mild "stoning" effect, with some visual enhancement
(i.e. brighter colours, etcetera). Some short term memory anomalies.
Left/right brain communication changes causing music to sound "wider".
Level 2: (L=0.044 mg/kg)
Bright colors, and visuals (i.e. things start to move and breath), some
two dimensional patterns become apparent upon shutting eyes. Confused or
reminiscent thoughts. Change of short term memory leads to continual
distractive thought patterns. Vast increase in creativity becomes apparent
as the natural brain filter is bypassed.
Level 3: (L=0.088 mg/kg)
Very obvious visuals, everything looking curved and/or warped patterns and
kaleidoscopes seen on walls, faces etc. Some mild hallucinations such as
rivers flowing in wood grained or "mother of pearl" surfaces. Closed eye
hallucinations become three dimensional. There is some confusion of the
senses (i.e. seeing sounds as colors, etcetera). Time distortions and
"moments of eternity".
Level 4: (L=0.206 mg/kg)
Strong hallucinations, i.e. objects morphing into other objects. Destruction
or multiple splitting of the ego. (Things start talking to you, or you find
that you are feeling contradictory things simultaneously). Some loss of
reality. Time becomes meaningless. Out of body experiences and e.s.p. type
phenomena. Blending of the senses.
Level 5: (L=0.294+ mg/kg)
Total loss of visual connection with reality. The senses cease to function
in the normal way. Total loss of ego. Merging with space, other objects,
or the universe. The loss of reality becomes so severe that it defies
explanation. The earlier levels are relatively easy to explain in terms
of measureable changes in perception and thought patterns. This level is
different in that the actual universe within which things are normally
perceived, ceases to exist! Satori enlightenment (and other such labels).
Step 2, Take your weight in pounds and multiply by 0.454. This
is your weight in kilograms.
Step 3, Take your weight in kilograms (from Step 2) and multiply it
by "L" (from step 1) for the level of trip you want. This is the
milligrams of psilocybin you need.
Step 4, Take the milligrams of psilocybin needed (from step 3) and
divide it by 4.7. This is the grams of goods you should take.
Example:
Jane weighs 125 pounds and wants a nice level 3 trip.
125 pounds x 0.454 = 56.8 kg
56.8 kg x 0.088 = 5.00 mg
5.00 mg / 4.7 (g/mg) = 1.064 g
Jane eats 1.064 grams of goods and has fun.

I know that the psilocybin response curve is non-linear, but the numbers that you give do not seem to fit any curve. I am wondering how you came up with them.
Level 1: (L=0.029 mg/kg)
Level 2: (L=0.044 mg/kg) dosage increase of 151%
Level 3: (L=0.088 mg/kg) dosage increase of 200%
Level 4: (L=0.206 mg/kg) dosage increase of 234%
Level 5: (L=0.294+ mg/kg) dosage increase of 143%
--------------------
The proof is in the pudding.

I created this chart a long time ago. The descriptions were stolen from somewhere, though I do not remember where now... most likely somewhere on erowid. The doses per level were taken from serveral sources and averaged together (if I remember correctly). Everything was 'tuned' based on the shrooms my friend was growing at the time using input from several different people after they had taken carefully weighed doses over a serveral month period.
More or less these numbers came from 'wet' (qualitative) science based on observation rather than something more quantitative such as blood tests and GC/MS. The shrooms my friend was growing at the time were PF-race, PF-tek, using BRF.
I can't promise that it is 100% accurate, but for what we were eating at the time it was really close.

A lot depends on body weight and the genetics of the mushroom. As I said, you might need to scale the final divisor to match your product and tolerance. We were also using fresh fruit at the time, but the table assumes 90% water and coverts to dry weight for smaller numbers.

Egoloss is not something that can be measured in grams...It is something within us all the time.

Does anyone agree that level 5s and pure egoloss is overdescribed by people.
I mean every second week i read about someone having a great level 5 trip and all this (not in this particular thread though)
I have had one experience on Psilocybe Cyanescens (Mjshroomer's favourite) and im not sure if id say i lost my ego, but it was hellish.
Basically everything that i looked at was contorted beyond recognition - my sister was green with blue hair, and the room around her was swirling like a greenish vortex. Then id look at someone else and they would look normal, then id start hearing screams and their eyes would move apart and their faces would look like demon-like horses. My whole body ached and i was quite light-headed. I had the disconcerting belief that i could here constant screams and devilish laughter from behind me, so i constantly span around to try and see the source of my disscomfort, but i could find none.
Not surprisingly, i went into the bathroom for a rest, but upon looking at myself in the mirror, i suddenly visualised my huge pupils as being souless and was convinced that someone had stolen or tricked me out of my soul. I must stress that everything was soooo fucked up that i couldnt even regonise up or down and had to be instructed by a friend on how to sit on what i saw was a waving and swirling couch.
This is the point where my ego kicked in and i realised that i was just tripping too hard and had to calm myself down.
I got there eventually, but the experience was undescribable and it was not especially fun.

Wow, this is a hard one to answer.
From the description of your trip, you were at level 5, but not egoless. The closer the ego gets to losing, the harder it fights to hang on. That is what causes the trips which are "not especially fun". When ego loss hits, you are not aware of it until after the fact. Both time and reality cease to exist. Everything becomes nothing and nothing becomes everything. The trip actually stops, or at least you become unaware of it. If you have ever passed out (while sober), to me (looking back) it almost feels like that last moment right before everything goes black.
I think a lot of people have difficult level 5 trips and think that just because they were out of their minds for a bit that they lost their ego. This simply isn't true. The ego can be (temporarily) destroyed without any drugs at all. Likewise, the ego can live through a level 5 trip causing all kinds of hell.

Seuss you took the words out of my mouth bro..I don't know how many times I've told myself while egoless "Nothing is everything, everything is nothingl." For some reason, I have came to the same conclusion. People fight the loss of their ego cause they're so attached to it, and thats when you have a bad trip. Its when you let go of it when things become beautiful. And Seuss is right it's not like you're tripping anymore, it's like nothingness. You stop hallucinating...Like Huxley said. Everything appears as it truly is, infinite.

did a vial rinse once had never tripped so hard. the plants outside my house in my flowerbeds were glowing VERY brightly and started popping out of the ground and walking around on their roots. it kinda freaked my gf out to see me walking thru the yard looking down and trying to grab invisible glowing plants.I really thought I saw them it freaked me at first then i justed wanted to hold one in my hands. I forgot how to make sentences, and could not understand english. every where i looked if thing were not glowing real brightly they were melting BIG TIME. I tried to smoke some weed to calm down, since most of the time it does or it's something thats very familiar to me but it took me to another level and I had to eat alot of xanax just to get a small grip on reality. but it was fun and I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! luv that acid

I have eaten large doses before and have never experienced egodeath on mushrooms but i have with mescaline and DMT. i'd have to be noncomital about the positivity or negativity of the experiences. the bitch is building up to the instance of eagodeath where I am still lucid and wishing, with every increase of intensity or fluctuation in the body sensations that i had the volition to commit suicide (exageration) then the instance occurs (I think) and as Louis said "No words can describe it, you might as well ask heaven what it sees...". All in all, Verry disorienting, takes me quite a while to recover and i get plenty of time between rediscovering lucidity/volition and getting to baseline to concider and comprehend every aspect of averything that transpired during the experience, though in "reality" i think this long period takes the shortest time.
you're milage may vary, i'm not even sure if this is very acurate in my own case but the best i can do.
almost forgot, i have no real "memory" of the majority of the experience, just vague impressions that don't even fit together that well.
