in an interstellar burst..
from the depths of my basement i shall transmit what was quite a profound experience with the plant known as salvia. after some recent unfortunate family circumstances, i have been on a psychadelic hiatus, opting to leave school for a bit to spend time with my parents. though experienced with the common hallucinagens lsd and pscilocybin mushrooms, as well as numerous excursions with some lesser known research chemicals, i rarely indulge in the short acting heavy hitting psychadelics. i've had extremely intense experiences with 5-meo-dmt and dpt, both notoriously powerful and bearing profound, mind melting interpretations of reality...so the opportunity to give this substance a try was truly a worthy investment of time and mind.
prep
i briefly consulted a friend about some obvious do's and don'ts about this substance, which reaffirmed my stance on it's ability to annihilate my sense of self. than he rattled off the necessities. first, the aquisition of a butane lighter. check. next, a suitable smoking device for burning salvia. i have a glass bowl, but have heard that a bong is the most efficient way of getting high while smoking salvia. so i prepare a hefty sized gravity bong, constructed from average household objects. not your average GB i must mention, perhaps 3 or 4 times larger, for maximum smoke gathering potential. finally, good setting, for i'd surely go into another space if everything is executed properly. with that a no brainer, i was ready to accept the gift of salvia.
experience
i prepare a bowl full of this salvia 5x extract and apply the flame, slowly raising the hollow container. thick smoke pours in, and lots of it. as the container gets to the top, i spin off the top and take a rip. i barely dented the thick layers of smoke i realize, all the while holding the smoke as long as i could. after exhaling i took rip #2
then #3
then #4
t h e n n n n n n n
i become totally disassociated within seconds of falling on the couch. the world around me melts...as with any experience with these types of hallucinagens, words hardly do the experince justice (and their my words none the less). the walls are viscous liquids molding in and out of each other. the wood doors and cieling become evolving episodes of clockwork machinery, valves and pumps shifting and callaborating to form spiraling/decending columns shooting far into space. it seems like i'm falling deep into what can be coined "salvia space". as the beta band puts it, "there's miles and miles of squares", or what appeared to be at least...each block resembled a circuit board of psychadelic colors...the background shifting from transparent to opaque and every shade in between. i am immersed in the deepness, further and further and further it seems...no emotional ties or deep introspection, just an experience totally alien to reality, seemingly pushing me further and further away until i eventually came crashing down to earth, my basement it seemed.
this was all i can conjure into words from this experience...the high more resembled dpt with the evolving objects and all, as opposed to the crash course into darkness provided by 5-meo-dmt. not sure really what to think of salvia quite yet, though i found it quite interesting. i have been on the hunt for the elusive dmt, and perhaps was expecting something a little different out of my salvia experience.
intense!
...i am back to save the universe

...i am back to save the universe
The first time I smoked salvia, I remember taking one monster hit, and before I could even put down the pipe, the metal bowl of it suddenly filled my vision and became a mountain, the universe, and my mother, all at once. Then I burned my finger on it.
