i'm in australia right now, and there was this documentary on SBS, Shamans of the Amazon. it was pretty much about ayahuasca and dmt. it was amazing, the best documentary i've seen about it. talked about everything from legalization, and all the effects of it, used to cure addictions, everything. even had interviews with terrence mckenna. it was very visual at times too.
anybody else catch it? you can get more info on it here, and order the dvd if you're interested. http://shamansoftheamazon.com/shamans_moreinfo.htm
i think i'm going to order it.
highly recommended

yeah, well i guess shamans know best of all people what could be good or what could be bad for pregnant women. nothin wrong with some ayahuasca i guess.
i thought it was really cool how when they were tripping, the shaman told the guy that he had bacteria and amoebas in his stomache, and mentioned something about his spine. then the guy got back home and he had to go to the hospital and apparently he did have bacteria in his stomache, and there was something wrong with his spine.
