Why not take the good old acid instead?

Why not take the good old acid instead?
- LoganDark 4y agoDifferent type of psychedelic, different trip experience... also synthetic whereas ayahuasca can be fully natural and traditional
- euroderf 4y agosynthetic = no assurance of actual dosage (without accurate testing). natural = some assurance?
- LoganDark 4y agoI think it's the other way around, where synthetic hallucinogens can be fully purified and measured, but brews of naturally occurring hallucinogens depend on how saturated the plant ended up being that time. But taking a natural brew in a temple or something has a different set and setting than taking a synthetic chemical like LSD. It's also closer to tradition, and promotes the idea that the drug trip is a religious or spiritual experience. IOW I think the use of ayahuasca over LSD is mainly symbolic, but DMT (as used in ayahuasca) does have its differences (though I do not know them).
- euroderf 4y ago> I think it's the other way around, where synthetic hallucinogens can be fully purified and measured My point was, with synthetics it's still caveat emptor. Natural products have that too - a measure of uncertainty - but without a possible profit motive and without intent to conceal possible incompetence. Woodstock + brown acid.
- anovikov 4y agoOpposite. If you take acid in liquid form you have full assurance of the dosage. Then dilute it as you need. With natural substances, idk how about ayahuasca, but say with mushrooms of all sorts it gets to be a real pain: concentrations may vary WIDELY.
