Hi Jake,
I took about 3,000 mgs of powdered calamus root two hours ago. It's just starting to hit me. Very celebral, lucid. Also noticing an aphrodisiac, tingly, sensation. (I have sensitive chakras)
My "Yoga of Herbs" book recommends a dose of 250-500mgs but I always like to see what's under the hood so I increased the dose a wee bit.
I did notice a slight stomach ache about a half hour after ingestion. Since it is an emetic, this could be expected.
Now, I'm preparing to smoke a mixture of California Poppy, White Lotus, Blue Lotus, Nelumbo or Sacred Lotus (the best of the three) ground Holy Basil seeds, and a pinch of Salvia Divinorum. I don't know what I'm going for. I threw the Salvia in to jazz it up a notch.
I don't really recommend Salvia D. It's a very stimulating and short-lived hallucenigenic (sp). It doesn't compare with acid but it's legal. I guess some people have had really bad trips on this stuff.
Fairfield Iowa is still home to Maharishi International University with Vedic City next door. I suppose if I have to live in Iowa this is a good spot. Looking to hit the trail in 2007 or 08. (maybe literally and hike the Appalachian (no way can I spell that now) Trail.
Now for the next experiment.
Verne
