The Psilocybin Revolution
    #5637006 - 05/16/06 11:02 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Considering the LSD revolution during the 60's, Do you think if psilocybin was as eat to ingest as LSD it would have inspired the same revolution?

I believe it wouldn't have happened, considering that most hits of LSD were high doses back then, taking an equal doses(effect wise) of psilocybin for me,is just too strange to get out and socialize. I'm lucky if I can get up and move during a high dose of mushrooms.

So basically,do you think psilocybin could have inspired a similar revolution?

:mushroom2:

similar maybe but not exact.  i kinda have the same problem of gettin up and moving when it firsts hits, but once i do get up i feel like moving around a lot. 
and besides... if it's a mental revolution to reform how people think, well that can be done from a chair or bean bag chair right?  :bigjoint:

I don't think as many people would enjoy the mushroom experience, from reading these boards I've realized most people enjoy LSD because it lacks the "mindfuck".

I don't think it would be as popular. I think of an anecdote that McKenna told where he asked why Dr. Hoffman why he preferred LSD over psilocybin. Hoffman said that it was because psilocybin seemed too "minded". McKenna said, "You mean you sensed an alien presence and that made you uncomfortable?" Hoffman confirmed this.

I could see it being too much for people to handle. If it suffused culture as much as LSD did, the overwhelming presence would probably cause everyone to snap, or make us take the next step up the evolutionary ladder.

I agree that it wouldn't have been possible. LSD is like the American's psychedelic. It's super easy to injest, it gives you energy, it doesn't seem to threaten you (meanwhile still giving you the benefits of a psychedelic experience) and you can easily mass (and I mean MASS) produce it.

Shrooms on the other hand are hard to really mass produce(at least on a national scale), make you pretty lazy, and almost force you into your trip.

The Psilocybin Revolution doesn't neccesarily have to spawn from everyone taking their own dose of psilo, there can be just a few great people that use it to help them help the MASS of people. This is what I beleive.

Leary and the kids at Harvard started with psilocybin from Sandoz. They used it quite a bit until LSD came along. For myself, I prefer LSD over mushrooms simply because I don't enjoy the body load associated with mushrooms. But they both have their uses. Personally, a psychedelic revolution of any sort is not feasible simply because the majority of people wouldn't be able to handle the experience, would abuse the chemicals, or simply would not want to take part. Psychonauts are few and far between...

Yeah I was just going to say... Psilocybin was experimented with in the 60's (in addition to LSD) and helped initiate the psychedelic revolution as a whole, with LSD being a MAJOR aspect due to it's vast availability for a certain period of time (ie: when it was legal).
