O.K. I know all the warnings I'm gonna get but...
    #5848485 - 07/11/06 08:14 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I've been respectful passionate about my beautiful datura plant and was wondering if even a small amount (maybe one leaf) in an aya brew would be stupid. I'm no shaman, thus have so far only appreciated the beauty of this plant, but I have learned more of god through my garden than I ever had in the buddhist monastery or bible college. I AM NOT A TEENAGER LOOKING TO GET FUCKED UP, but have been curious about this plant for years. Does anyone out there entertain my same curiosity?

I know they aren't too related, but it can't hurt to ask.
Have you tried any other dissociates? K? DXM in higher dosages? Amanitas?
Datura is said by many to be far, far more potent, and scary than the other disassociates. If you do find enjoyment/enlightenment in these substances, then maybe datura would be for you. (Again, I know it is hard to relate substances, but datura is very powerful by all accounts; and carries great dangers if you are not ready)

Or if nothing else, try the leaf by itself first. Keep in mind some people are very allergic to Atropine (I personally know someone)
Whatever you decide, good luck and be safe!

Hey pod3, less than one leaf, huh, sounds like you may be a little more informed than me, could you elaborate, and I wasn't meaning to say teenagers are dumb, but there are a lot of people simply looking to get high, which isn't what I seek.
Oh yeah, "faith is the evidence of things unseen", and to seek it is to know it IMHOP, but this is the wrong forum for that can of worms.

One leaf may be a small ammount, but atleast make sure you aren't allergic first.

Missed a couple of posts (I have to hunt and peck),
I've tried every dissasociative I can think of, I have on hand 2 ounces of salvia 10x, along with multiple other plants and extracts I'd rather not mention, and the reason for this post was for my next ayahuasca journey, I am quite a green thumb, and like I implyed earlier, I specialize growing the plants that I suspect as being the "tree of knowledge of good and evil", and I own 2 acres in which I grow them, so I'm no newbie to the world of etheogens.

Datura is a deliriant, not a dissociative.

IMOP it was forbidden because we did not have that knowledge, now we do, metaphor or not the reason we were expelled from the garden was not so we would not eat of this plant again, but so we would not eat of the tree of everlasting life and become like god. (Ya, I know, wrong forum)

Datura-like plants are added to traditional brews pretty commonly. VERY small amounts are used.

I have had the pleasure to try one and a half leaves or so in a batch of ayahuasca after taking a syrian rue concoction. I could not consume the whole amount of viridis tea BECAUSE THE DATURA IN IT MADE ME COME UP SO VERY FAST, AND IN A VERY WEIRD WAY.... The trip was extreemely intense and the datura seemed to work with the dmt very well. I experienced no delerium but did experience slight dissociative qualities(along with the synergy between dat. and dmt). Just the type of a trip that I wouldnt wish on my worst enemy, though I expected that. I have almost never tripped so hard in my life(and I never finished the brew). The experience was so meaningful, but very difficult.

I actually wouldnt recommend it to anyone. I basically tripped for weeks. Strongest after effects I have ever and will ever experience. The fact that I have had much stronger experiences with ayahuasca, and that this one is a little bit more strange says alot about how the additive datura can effect the trip.
I used an amount that would not work very well by its self. It floored me when mixed with maois and dmt.

Its a slippery slope, and I wouldnt recommend anyone fuck around with it, especially if they had never used ayahuasca or datura seperately..

Thats the point where ayahuasca can actually get dangerous even if you abide by the dietary restrictions.

It was pretty out of this world and I never worried about my physical body. Only my mind.
It was just as magical as a much higher dose of just maois and dmt, but harder to manage and very alien.

SO ya I would not recommend it even at the extreemely low dose I described.

Dont go eating the plant first off.. Have selected foliage and flowers. Avoid the roots and seed/pods. It was explained to me that most plants are very differnt in strenth, So start small and slowly get to know how strong the plant you have is. If i wanted to try this plant I would start by smoking the flowers to see if I enjoyed it. Starting small is a big part of this journey.

I'm not going to try to stop you.
at least you KNOW what youre about to do and can therefore take precautions.

im fairly sure in the end youre just going to realize its not a good idea. but ive seen MANY people consume it. and although ALL had incomparable, BIZZARE and out-of-control dark journeys ending up in strange places.

none died....

well, that is to say one fell naked down a flight of stairs in back of a store, another packed up all his things into bags in the living room and spoke gibberish on immaginary phones to his mom. Still another got into an argument with the siding on his house that turned to "swings" resulting in bloddy knuckes and missing yards of siding...
one woke his father while trying to make coffee out of socks in his drawers. My best friend threw an imaginary party in his house while is parents watched him socialize with laundry hanging over chairs (must have been hippies)
one guy spent the night strapped to a bed after he was found crawling on his belly around an intersection digging into the pavement with his fingernails, trying to pick up cigarettes.
Oh, then there was the guy who grasped a knife by the blade and unkowinlgy sliced his hand all up while trying to fish tiny people out of a cup with the dull end.

dark, creepy, spotty, uncomfortable and downright hostile.
one popular fellow Ive not personally met managed to scrawl "DATUR" on his arm before circumstances occured that culminated with him waking up from a coma 2 weeks later.

but hey, better to know right?

let me know what happens, i will add you to the list if it's good.

Nice list mitchnast, lol, I was actually hoping to find out a small amount that would only change/enhance the aya experience, as other admixtures do, but it seems that even a very small amount would probably change it into something that is unlike any aya brew I've dreamed of, thanx stemmer, that's exactly the kind of info I was looking for.

Hey, stemmer, how strong were the after effects? I probably know better than to try it, but I would like to know, just in case a small leaf did flutter into a brewing pot some time down the road.

Wow Mitchnast, you must know alot of dumb folks that have taken datura. People like that just should not take datura.

It can be controlled though it is harder than with most drugs. You have to know your dose, and know what you are doing with the trip.

Its true most people dont like it, but a surprizing amount of people can find a good use for it. SUch as the low doses used in ayahuasca brews.

If a 9 year old aspiring shaman can handle it in the middle of the jungle, and considers it to be his favorite tool, some people can experience it, enjoy it, and learn from it.
Its not meant to get high off of. If you act like an idiot on any dose of mushrooms/do lots of stupid shit, you are not meant to take datura of all things. Thats for sure.

Every story you mentioned is the equivalent to people jumping out of windows when on lsd.
IF you know hallucinogens, and are not a ridiculous person with no inhibitions(capable of some very stupid shit), it can be a managable drug. A VERY unique drug.

NOT TO BE USED BY IDIOTS. If you take enough you can bet your ass its dangerous. If you use it with maois and dmt, you better know what you are doing. If you take 3-4 grams of rue and 1-2 tbsp's of datura seed(you could die for example), I would hate to see what would happen to just about anybody. Smart people dont do that. People who know their shit know how little it takes, and how fine the line is between an interesting trip and a visit to the hospital.

The goal is to not be driven mad like the people described by Mitchnast. Thats why you need to know what you are doing, BIG TIME, especially when using any amount of it with maois and dmt.

Mitchnast, you might as well add me to the "list". You might not look like such an ignorant person who wants to demonize a drug that is used safely by alot of people, and has been for thousands of years.

Yes you can slip into coma, or do something VERY stupid. I just depends on how much you eat.

Im just tired of hearing opinions about this drug from people who obviously know almost nothing about it.

SOme tropane plants are more ideal by the way. They are all a bit different. NOT TO BE USED TO SIMPLY TRIP YOUR BALLS OFF.
A little goes a long way...
Its definately a poison in a way. Thats for sure. Thats why it doesnt work as well with the physical body as most hallucinogens.
Less is more, no hospital visit.

Its not for people who just want to trip or have a long-ass lsd or mushroom-like experience. It pretty damn dangerous if you dont know what you are doing. It also NOTHING like any other type of drug, and if you took enough of it you might not end up in the hospital, but you could go mad for quite some time. Take enough it will alter the way your brain works, possibly forever, to a point you are not comfortable with one bit.

Maois and SMALL amounts of datura can be a good thing. If you misuse the two regardless of the amount of dmt used you could be in some VERY serious trouble.
When it comes to maois and datura-like plants, it gets very serious. For most users of psychedelics, the mix is a no-no.

Only two of those people were what i would call dumb.
none of them knew really what to expect. But were given the impression that the substance was a "trip" by the experiences of their peers.

The last person mentioned (the coma one) was MoeHoward from this here forum. which was a stupid thing to do, but moe is not a stupid guy.

obviously you have a personal relationship with this plant,
thats nice.

why? does it feed you? are you learning anything practical?

what it all comes down to is personal entertainment. you are entertaining yourself by being an elite user of something that makes a fool out of others but not you.
you aren't serving your fellows with this action, as would a shaman, you are acting wholly for yourself. thats not a BAD thing, but you claimed "usefullness" explain.


seems the only thing you've learned from this great teacher is how to see things in black and white.

wrong, you see, these types of experiences are NORMAL for datura, whereas acid window jumping is quite abnormal.

consider yourself added.
to the club of the biased and bewitched.

for evry elite thats succeeded in experiencing datura in "thousands of years" how many have you KNOWN to never fuck up? are shamans some sort of devine being to you? They are just people who consume substances to acheive a spiritual divination, the practical result of which is hopelessly impractical in modern reality.

so WHY DO IT?

Taking for idiots those who don't understand "you" is a hallmark of the LEAST enlightened.

What have you leaned? really, help me understand, I will get it. I don't want to hear an excuse like "only certain types of people can get it" or just general claims of it being a useful tool with no actual explaination of practicality.
EVEN ON A PURELY AUTO-INSIGHTFUL level.
ANYTHING.

why? why so useful?

what makes you, and whatever kind you subscribe as, so special?

what makes the uninitiated an idiot?

Got some poetry or art you couldn't have made withought it?

I've done it as you describe, carefully and respectfully, taking the time to USE its influence to focus on the supernatural. And I'm GOOD at that. REAL good. NEVER fucked up. And if anything, it subtracts from the experience of introspection. Maybe in a way that adds experience for life, but NOT useful.

MAYBE its not useful to you either, MAYBE just MAYBE you have convinced yourself it is. WHY? well lets use me as an example. I know me pretty well, and im the same species as you, dispite attitude differences, my chemistry is the same.

I am facinated by Poisonous spiders. I like to keep them around and feed them, they are dear to me, I argue their right to live with anyone, I argue that they make rewarding pets.

But you know what? THEY'RE USELESS. They exist to exist, they are poisonous to survive.

EXACTLY like datura... and you.

It is a familliar you've imprinted upon.

Frankly, I think I get this "usefullness" you speak of in a far more logical way simply by nurturing the plants and growing them in my garden.

now, all that messy explaining aside. I never said one should not try it did I? All I did is give some examples of common reactions I KNOW to be accurate. I suggested that one would likely not enjoy it. also true, you must aggree.
your frustration, much apparent, lies where? In people (other than you) in the plants hazardous nature? where?

I ask the good questions. they are RIGHT to the point, and most people avoid answeing them because they don't know what the answer will mean. The BEST I say.

You're human, me too, Practically identical. and yet, you think otherwise. Or am I wrong?

Is there really this GIGANTIC difference that so DRASTICALLY alters the way we subjectively experience

one........little.......plant?

your answer will determine as much about you as me, since that difference is only relative to what we BOTH are without it.

Even if you just blow it off. it's the answer.

this is pretty simple realy:
what you want isnt there.

you seem to be looking for a low dose that is safe, but strong enuff to achieve minor effects.
when the thing with these plants seem to be that if u took enuff to feel anything at all, you already got one foot in the grave.
threshhold and deadly doses are so close together thats its always going to be risky outside of a symbolic dose.

if i understand you correctly you want to do this in order to enhance
your relationship with the plant in a spriritual sense, or something like that.

so i would advise you take a symbolic dose, say 1 square cm of leaf and 5mm of leefstem or something like that.
(EDIT: NOT ACTUAL ADVICE, MERELY AN EXAMPLE)

see aside from the entoxicating effects, these plants also have a medicinal value.
so a minute dose like that wouldent provide anything u could experiance, but it does have a medicinal effect on your body.

(EDIT: any1 have any info on medicinal doses?)

allowing the plants healing powers to effect you wile respecting them enuff not to let the beast out seems like the most spiritual thing u can do with this plant.

also Organic has a point, that tattoo kinda makes u a rolemodel doesent it? :wink:

since ure into the religious aspects of drugs u should consider clicking the banner in my siggy, u may find the holy grail...

ahh, symbolic dosage, what a perfect term.

technically tho, you ould acheive the same effects by NOT consuming it, technically you could just TALK to it, and spiritually, it is effective.

medicinally, Tropanes are used in surgery, for example, atropine is administered to correct a baracardia (sp) heart rythim. nasty stuff. Once upon a time datura was sold pharmaceutically in ciggarettes as a treatment for asthma.

In theory, i suppose a small dosage could treat pnemonia due to its radical diarrhetic qualities.

But as for it "healing" there are so many other plants that "heal" better. It is nothing shy of delision to think datura gained its notariety in spiritual circles for its "healing" qualities. Without the deleriant, it would just be another garden variety flower.

Avoiding the deleriant effects, but still consuming it (symbolic dose) Is effective ONLY because your mind makes it so. It is intention of the user to acheive placebo effect from the stongest of drugs. And therefore, it is fundementally silly.

It would do one well to have shaman administer dosage so he can exchange it with a non-toxic variety of plant and let you BELIEVE youre consuming datura.

SAME effect. Extrordinary, one must be, to fool ones self effectively, the pinnacle of dicipline, and similtaneously the opposite of insight.

sort of like in the hitchikers guide to the galaxy, the secret of flight is to throw yourself at the ground. and miss.
You can't do this intentionally, it must be accidental, for if you TRY to miss, you will fail to.

So i suppose as long as you don't KNOW that symbolic dosage is ultimatley fruitless outside of your coporeal mental landscape, It could be something to try. Just mentally block out all this nonsense about it being fruitless and try not to get distracted by "reality" while you try to experience it while NOT being on it, and thinking that you are.
After a few loops of logic like this, it will all become clear. And by that I mean totally obscured and murky, but 'accepted' as clear.

I knew a guy who used to consume aloe in joints because he beleived it was an "MAOI" and helped THC "oxidize"

He would get SO FRIGGIN HIGH!!!!

well it obviously means more to ngnyus then that.

and when i say symbolic, i realy mean it litteraly.
but now that i think about it theres another approach to this idea:

what about the idea of using ayahuasca to communicate with a plant?

ngnyus can u elaborate and what exactly it is you want to do/achieve here?

I am not going to recommend you ingesting datura in any form...

That said, I have myself, probably 9 years ago now. I collected several hundred flowers, leaves, and pods of Strammonium (sp?) from a logging site. Ate two leaves and literally thought the world was ending and I was having lapses of memory, forgetting I had done the drug. I stayed in my basement for most of the experience which is something I would never do on any other drug. I went outside and saw shit I knew wasn't there (people that have died, a yellow vortex swirling in the clouds) and proceeded to try and pass out constantly to stop the experience. Interestingly, each time I would wake up, the pile of water, alcohol, and cigs beside me had grown enormously, when there were actually just two butts and a water jug sitting there :shrug:

Being young and dumb, I repeated the experience a few weeks later by smoking about a quarter sized portion of a dry leaf mixed with a flake of a flower. I felt more "stoned" off this amount and it was actually quite pleasant for the brief come-up. I still had strong hallucinations out of the corners of my eyes. I would be spooked because a tree limb/car whatever would start growing/rolling forward out of the corner of my eyes. Reminded me of amphetamine psychosis.

IMO, Datura is just going to detach you from what you are experiencing in Ayahuasca, and make the experience less memorable (literally). Datura should be not even be used on its own, in EXTREMELY minute doses, unless you have a sitter and are prepared for HELL. Even then, just don't do it.

BTW, be prepared to look like you've been injected LSD into your eyes for a few days...my pupils were massive (and eyes irritated) for at least 3-4 days after eating it.

so i would advise you take a symbolic dose,


allowing the plants healing powers to effect you wile respecting them enuff not to let the beast out seems like the most spiritual thing u can do with this plant.





ahh, symbolic dosage, what a perfect term.

technically tho, you ould acheive the same effects by NOT consuming it, technically you could just TALK to it, and spiritually, it is effective.

medicinally, Tropanes are used in surgery, for example, atropine is administered to correct a baracardia (sp) heart rythim. nasty stuff. Once upon a time datura was sold pharmaceutically in ciggarettes as a treatment for asthma.

In theory, i suppose a small dosage could treat pnemonia due to its radical diarrhetic qualities.

But as for it "healing" there are so many other plants that "heal" better. It is nothing shy of delision to think datura gained its notariety in spiritual circles for its "healing" qualities. Without the deleriant, it would just be another garden variety flower.

Avoiding the deleriant effects, but still consuming it (symbolic dose) Is effective ONLY because your mind makes it so. It is intention of the user to acheive placebo effect from the stongest of drugs. And therefore, it is fundementally silly.

It would do one well to have shaman administer dosage so he can exchange it with a non-toxic variety of plant and let you BELIEVE youre consuming datura.

SAME effect. Extrordinary, one must be, to fool ones self effectively, the pinnacle of dicipline, and similtaneously the opposite of insight.

sort of like in the hitchikers guide to the galaxy, the secret of flight is to throw yourself at the ground. and miss.
You can't do this intentionally, it must be accidental, for if you TRY to miss, you will fail to.

So i suppose as long as you don't KNOW that symbolic dosage is ultimatley fruitless outside of your coporeal mental landscape, It could be something to try. Just mentally block out all this nonsense about it being fruitless and try not to get distracted by "reality" while you try to experience it while NOT being on it, and thinking that you are.

Interesting idea. The thing with any intoxicant is that there is physical intoxication and mental intoxication. This is why driving under the influince is bad even if you feel ok. Slowed reaction times and all that. Some people are more in tune with this than others. For an example my girlfriend honestly believes that she is still pretty much sober even after she starts to lose motor skills. Anyone experienced with Kava knows that your motor skills start to fade before you get drunk on it. Anyways point being, with Datura there is a tendency to underestimate how much it is really effecting you. Hence the "safe" trip tip of not redosing. At any rate. This isn't entirely the issue here. What I am getting at is that a small subdelierieant dose does have nonplacebo effects. In particullar, when combined with classic psychedelics. Personally I have had experience with the LSA-Datura combination. I took a dose of Datura which wouldn't have done anything noticable on it's own with about 300 mg seeds, which otherwise, wouldn't have been anything to write home about with spectacularly breathtaking results. So an itty bitty amount with some MAOI + DMT makes that small small amount of Datura very significant. By the way from your descriptions it sounds like your list is of people who had misadventures with Datura as the primary intoxicant. This is a different (although still potentially dangerous) story and situation.

I'm not going to try to stop you.
at least you KNOW what youre about to do and can therefore take precautions.

im fairly sure in the end youre just going to realize its not a good idea. but ive seen MANY people consume it. and although ALL had incomparable, BIZZARE and out-of-control dark journeys ending up in strange places.

none died....

well, that is to say one fell naked down a flight of stairs in back of a store, another packed up all his things into bags in the living room and spoke gibberish on immaginary phones to his mom. Still another got into an argument with the siding on his house that turned to "swings" resulting in bloddy knuckes and missing yards of siding...
one woke his father while trying to make coffee out of socks in his drawers. My best friend threw an imaginary party in his house while is parents watched him socialize with laundry hanging over chairs (must have been hippies)
one guy spent the night strapped to a bed after he was found crawling on his belly around an intersection digging into the pavement with his fingernails, trying to pick up cigarettes.
Oh, then there was the guy who grasped a knife by the blade and unkowinlgy sliced his hand all up while trying to fish tiny people out of a cup with the dull end.

dark, creepy, spotty, uncomfortable and downright hostile.
one popular fellow Ive not personally met managed to scrawl "DATUR" on his arm before circumstances occured that culminated with him waking up from a coma 2 weeks later.

but hey, better to know right?

let me know what happens, i will add you to the list if it's good.




I too havent had the ball to try, but an old buddy of mine, spent hours talking to his ( long ) dead grandfather... maybe he REALLY was , who can say.

after he finished that he spent the rest of the day watching cartoons on his bedroom door....

hmm,
datura and the ego as compared to mushrooms and ego.

i think perhsps that datura no more effects ego than sleep depravation would. even in delusion, you are you, separate from peripheral reality AND hallucination.

whereas mushrooms connect you to halucination and reality by removing sence of psysical boundry and separation.

Datura also negatively effects memory.

just some ponts, i gotta go in a hurry, otherwise i would post more.

People have horrid trip off of datura type plants because they are not ready, have the wrong expectations in some way/dont like it, or they took to much.

Its a pretty hairy subject especially when dealing with maois.

A small amount is totally different if you have taken maois(obviously). Thats why a person would talk about it in VERY low dose terms when it involves ayahuasca. You can take a very small amount of datura with it and it can be much more intense, and safe as well as long as you are not an idiot in even one of the variety of ways I have described.

There is a reason people dont try to potentiate a low dose of datura with maois. It has to be a much lower dose to not really fuck yourself up in a very unsafe way. Dose info on the internet is pretty shady when it comes to so many of these substances. A low dose you read about on the internet is not neccessarily you ideal low dose at all. Just like mushrooms.

Less is more. Be safe. This drug is not bad, the devil, or uncomfortable for all people. Im just sick of the misinformation.

In case I didnt stress this enough, dont use it with maois.
If you choose to, you know who you are, and I hope you have chosen to for the right reasons, because it almost certainly is not going to make your trip more "fun". I hope its what you were asking for if you do so, in other words. I wouldnt recommend it, but I on the other hand got alot out of it. To each his own.

NEVER TAKE EVEN HALF OF A NORMAL DOSE OF DATURA PLANTS WITH ENOUGH MAOIS TO CAUSE FULL-MAOI-INHIBITION................ Thats just asking for trouble. A good, super small dose is a great additive to ayahuasca for the right people though, as difficult as it can be.

Even if you take a normal oral dose of datura seeds(most common), I hope you dont exceed you limit. Taking it by its self is hairy enough subject.

i think your also the only one here who actualy gets what im trying to say here lol.

i think the main thing whith what your doing is that u have to have a mental connection to the plant when the aya is coming on, it hs to be at the forefront of your thoughts.

i think maybe art is a good way to do that.
take a lon time to look at your plants and take in all the detail n stuff.
then include the drawing of the plant in your ritual as a preperation
and place your drawing at an alter of some sort.
then when the aya is coming on look at that picture and maybe sing a song about the plant, or one that reminds u of it, if there is such a thing for you etc.

same with this "interpretive system." nature or nurture?

I understand what youre saying, and I like your allegory.
it's good. it ACTUALLY fits. If I was to expand upon it, I would only be making a different metaphor to say the same exact thing.

Knowlage is ALWAYS practical if its true, or at least, if it alludes to truth well enough to simply BE practical, without itself being true.

Quote:

So, IMHO, drugs, behaviour, forced rule, meditation, yoga, and venal visions, are excluded as means of salvation for the soul. Anyone who tells you otherwise is not saved. Therefore, I stand by my generalizations about carnality.




still, you REASON this. thats my point.

Personally, I don't beleive in salvation. I beleive we get what we earn, and we ought to have it. Sad, but look what we have done. look at what we benefit from. And then theres every taint made by the individual.

now, CHRISTIAN doctrine dictates absolution for a single surrender to a simple but illogical premise. "faith"
specifically in christ as a messiah.

Iv'e not found myself to have a jammed door for a while.
Ive been both types tho, A sort of sudden and no-bones-about
metamorphisis. with a long transitional period of conflict.
A sudden flood of understanding blasted the nest in which nestled my infant spirit. whatever quality that i had learned by living, that enabled me to feel free and safe dispite the heavy burden of responsibility for an evil machination from which I (and all who live withought great pain) drew a comfortable existance.

Now, perhaps your definition of "Carnal" is more interprative than mine, but then, it's not a part of my personal vocabulary. Tho, i know of it.

Datura, is something i tried BEFORE this transition. And it was not terrifying. It did not do to me that which it did to those who came after me. In truth, It hardly had an effect dispite sleepyness, dryness, difficulty reading for days, and dilated pupils. I had always been able to control my inner energies, so well in fact i took it for granted. Never thought it was strange to be able to make a person jump just by willing controlled malice at them. Or make a person feel soothed by willing emotion of contentment into my arms and then, by laying on hands, into them.
Datura made tis energy surge.
it jolted up and down my legs, caused my arms to tense and twitch, but honestly, i considered this to be a side effect, what i had INTENDED was to experience halucinations.
i called it "discomfort", "edgyness", restlessness"
An effect i ALSO get from sleep-aid (diphenhydranate) and therefore AVOID them.
Not a good feeling.
Perhaps now, after all that doubt that i lived with was removed, and after ive evolved to live without it, i could walk the path you suggest.
but then, dispite the fact I undersand what you say, near-empathicly, I do not beleive datura would be truly useful to me OR others. even those who COULD use it. would not be able to truly benefit from it. That it would not offer LASTING insight that one could not grant ones self. Yet is more than capable of TAKING it away.

thats only what i suspect, not what I know.
THEREFORE, i "reason" it.
