For the devout believer, no evidence is necessary. For the devout skeptic, no evidence will suffice. Most people are one or the other in most regards, so they get nowhere either way.

Indocrination causes blindness. It’s a software thing (hypnotic invisibility, memetic invisibility, neurological lock-outs of data).

It’s all ok. Fish don’t know they’re wet.
And sleepwalkers will fight to the death in order to maintain their false sense of awakeness.

$30 for a bottle of pills seems a small price to pay in order to pursue a dream that may pay off richly in our lives. But the chains of cowardice are subtle, and deep, and wear many guises. People won’t pay thirty bucks for some brain pills but they will blow how much per month on movies and low-browed distractions? A point worth considering,..

Maybe you could compose an Ayahasca Simulator MP3,..

Thanks for the feedback Michael. Please don’t stop here though, that’s the reason the references to studies were provided. There is a great deal of evidence that these substances are effective and it was from these sources that this article was written.

Definitely don’t believe anything you read on the internet, or that you come across in any other media for that matter, but if you really want to know if possibilities exist, follow your own research past both the wild-eyed theories and the entrenched dogma of our times. The only thing we get from following the status quo is mediocrity

Well I’ve read through this, and I don’t want to sound mean, but there’s still no evidence to say that these substances are any more effective than the “alternative herbal remedies” we are constantly being told about. It’s the placebo effect again, you think it’s working and you start attributing experiences to it. These chemicals have no special properties and offer nothing other than extra nutrition, which increases brain performance anyway.
