Salvia Divinorum is a shamanic plant used by the Mazatec Indians of Mexico to induce visions and spiritual quests. There's something very special about this plant, not least because it was not long ago made nearly extinct. An affiliate of the mint family, this sage is highly rare in nature, growing in only 1 area of the world. The Mazatec's hold Salvia Divinorum to be holy, and even of a divine nature. The leaves when consumed are psychoactive, yet they're absolutely unique among all hallucinogens. Lots of the sacred plants which tribal peoples worship often contain DMT or else repress the human body's resistance to its naturally produced DMT. Salvia divinorum is dissimilar, its hallucinogenic properties were only isolated relatively latterly ; called Salvorin An it is one of the strongest hallucinogens known.
It's also perfectly legal in almost each country.
As with other shamanic plants - like Ayahuasca - Salvia Divinorum is something which should be extraordinarily respected. It's a teacher plant which is way more than capable of providing powerful personal and spiritual insights. It might take you on journeys deep into the fabric of consciousness itself, just as promptly as it'll free your mind to every personal corner of your being.
The nature of these plants has become lost on much of modern society, suffering from a catch-all stigma ; they are viewed just as 'drugs' which chemically alter the brain. While that's true from a physical standpoint, the religious aspect of these experiences can never be understated. These hallucinogens seem to amplify many traits of our mind and personality, so it stands to reason - at least to me - that folks who are spiritually inclined will have a religious experience, while an individual of a more 'grounded' nature will see the experience as a chemically induced 'trip'. Naturally it's not so black and white or clear cut as that, but it forms a basis of why these plants and experiences are so mis-understood.
That related Salvia Divinorum as it currently stands gives a absolutely unique opportunity. It is very safe, unlike with Ayahuasca you don't need to be in the vicinity of a shaman or other expert. It is completely legal every. It is non-addictive. And most significantly Salvia Divinorum can be amazingly transformational in the most positive of ways.
