hey this is leo for actualized.org and in this episode i'm going to be talking about 5meo dmt the most powerful psychedelic in the world the magic pill to enlightenment and god warning the information provided here is strictly for educational purposes misusing 5meo dmt can be lethal the first thing we need to clear up is the difference between 5meo dmt and regular dmt these are not the same things at all even though they sound similar you've probably heard about people smoking dmt and that's a very powerful psychedelic but 5meo is more powerful it's 10 to 20 times more potent than regular dmt which is quite crazy if you've ever tried dmt but not only that it produces qualitatively different results so it's not just more of the same it's different very different even though the names are similar so don't confuse these two substances 5meodmt i believe is the most important psychedelic for the work that we're doing here with actualize.org i personally am not interested in just tripping out or experiencing pleasurable experiences that's not why i use psychedelics i'm interested in raising my consciousness to the highest levels humanly possible uh using whatever methods or techniques are out there that allow me to do this and 5meo from what i've discovered is beyond all other psychedelics and it's extremely practical in its ability to transform your consciousness in permanent ways so what i believe this is my theory and this is something that needs to be proven which i will be working on to prove for myself is that five and meow can be used to have genuine enlightenment experiences and also not only to have these peak experiences and then coming back down to normal egoic existence but to actually attain permanent enlightenment i think that five of meow is capable of doing that in fact i found an individual who has successfully done that and uh i'll talk more about that as we continue but first let's address this issue of the anti-magic pill dogma that i see out there so you know people who are into personal development generally we take as sort of as a dogma that magic pills are bad and that anything like is a shortcut shouldn't be done shouldn't be used because it's not genuine it's not natural it's not good that's kind of like what we might think but let's remember this notion of magic pills the reason that we don't like generally magic pills is because generally many magic pills don't work you see we're not opposed to magic pills on principle if you're opposed to anything on principle that's ego that's dogma i'm opposed to magic pills when they have bad consequences and when they flat out don't work that's a problem and i continue to be opposed to magic pills in that regard but let's also consider that humanity if we take a look at the broader perspective humanity has invented many successful highly effective magic pills throughout the last several thousand years of our civilization and by magic pills let's really broaden out this idea because what is a magic pill it's really just a technology it's a technology that works very effectively and can save you a lot of time or energy that's really what a magic pill is now the question is is the technology effective or not we can find many examples of highly effective magic pill technologies for example computers penicillin other types of medicines modern medical surgery which can cure certain kinds of cancer and can do others certain kinds of stuff electricity right gps systems the internet so these things are real magic pills and uh these we have no problem using because we're not opposed to them on any ideological grounds for example if you need to add up a billion different numbers you have no problem using a calculator or computer to crunch those numbers for you when otherwise it would have taken you 10 years to add them all up but see when it comes to spirituality a lot of people because they hold dogmas about spirituality and because the ego is so involved with it then they'll have this objection and they'll say well leo you know don't use psychedelics if you use psychedelics to have some sort of consciousness a higher consciousness experience that's not genuine that's not authentic but you have to see it from the broader perspective from the broader perspective it's just a technology that's what it is and the question is does this technology work and the only way you can know is by trying it yourself lots and lots of trials then you can see if it really works and you can see what are the long-term consequences what are the repercussions is it sustainable in all of that okay let's also not forget that spirituality if you do some basic study and research of the history of spirituality you quickly see that spirituality from the very very beginning 5 000 years ago if you go back to ancient ancient hinduism and ancient um uh judaism and ancient forms of christianity and so forth you see that all the greatest spiritual masters have gone to hardcore extremes to pursue enlightenment and they developed technologies to do this and some of these technologies are so hardcore that they're shocking to the average person so let's take a look for example at yoga yogic techniques i don't mean the yoga that we do a gym class i mean old school hinduism yogic techniques what were those those were special very exotic ways of breathing and manipulating your mind so that you can reach union with god that's what it was in fact some forms of yoga are so extreme that what they do is they will snip the little ligament that attaches your tongue to the bottom of your mouth that thing right there they will actually snip that with a knife or with scissors why is that so that you can so that the yogi can take his tongue and curl it back up into his throat up his nostrils because you can't do that easily without snipping that ligament so that he can breathe a little bit more efficiently so that he can attain enlightenment faster now if i told you if i came up here and i said hey you know what let's go snip that ligament in your mouth you would say wait a minute leo that's a bit extreme i don't know if i want to do that well the yogis have been doing that for thousands of years what about starvation people have been starving themselves near to death not just fasting but actually starving themselves since the beginning of spiritual traditions they've been doing that right think of jesus think of the buddha nearly starving themselves to death so that they can put themselves in a state of mind that would produce some sort of higher consciousness visionary experiences think of the native americans they have traditions like the vision quest where they send you out into the wilderness into a barren desert with the no food and no water for like three or four days and you're on the brink of death out there in the scorching sun with no water until you start hallucinating and you start to see visions and that was done for spiritual purposes or think of the sun dance native american sundance tradition where they will actually get you out in front of a tree they will take these metal spokes and they'll stick them into the skin the flesh of your abdomen producing lifelong scars they will tie a rope to those metal skewers that they stick through you and then you're going to spend two or three days running around that tree that they tie you to with that rope singing songs and dancing in the burning scorching heat in order to experience some sort of visionary higher consciousness states and that will leave you scarred for life those scars don't completely heal pretty radical huh but also consider baptism old school baptism you know what that was they would take your head and they would submerge you under the water until you were nearly drowned and only then would they lift you out of the water what was the purpose of that the purpose of that was to put you on the very brink of death and then bring you back to life and then that was supposed to have some sort of spiritual effects think about asceticism ascetics have existed for thousands of years since the very beginning these are people who went off and lived by themselves in the mountains isolated for decades all by themselves and if you think that that's not hardcore think about the fact that three thousand years ago when you became an ascetic you couldn't order [ __ ] on amazon shipped to you you couldn't go to a grocery store and stock up on canned beans and rice and this kind of stuff yeah so asceticism was like a life and death decision you have to live out there there are like marauders and thieves and robbers and warlords who could come and kill you anytime you're completely defenseless living there by yourself on the mountain or in the forest somewhere or in the middle of the desert that was a hardcore life and death decision to become an ascetic also we know that mushrooms psychedelic mushrooms have been the foundation of many religious traditions including the christian tradition including native american traditions south american traditions african traditions indian traditions and uh aboriginal australian and new zealand traditions see uh in hinduism one of the oldest texts in hinduism is the rig veda and there they cite a substance called soma we don't exactly know what soma is but our best guess is that it's a psychedelic mushroom perhaps the amanita mysteria mushroom or the psilocybin cubensis mushrooms or some variation on that but clearly they highly regarded the mushroom and in fact because uh the oldest tradition we have of non-duality comes from hinduism from india the whole thing might have started with mushrooms that might be how human beings discovered enlightenment or higher consciousness and then it might have spread from there also the ancient greeks were onto this they were onto psychedelics they have a 2 000 year old tradition called the illusion mysteries it was a cult a very popular and huge cult where thousands of people every single year for 2 000 years up until the fall of the roman empire would gather in a temple and they would drink a substance called cachion this was a psychedelic substance that would send you into rapture and visions of various deities what was in the substance it's hard to tell but the best that we can guess it was some derivative of lsd the greeks found a method to derive lsd from ergot which is a fungus that grows on wheat and they did this for 2 000 years and this wasn't just some sort of little side cult this was mainstream all the major greeks and romans of the time partook in this including plato aristotle the roman senator cicero and the roman emperor nero and those are just the ones that we know of there might have been even more than that that we don't know of on record so um firstly we have to acknowledge that psychedelics have been closely linked to spirituality from the very very beginning of time so there's nothing sacrilegious here about using psychedelics because honestly for people who are interested in knowing the truth and experiencing god they don't care these are hardcore people and they will use whatever methods they can including stuff like meditation you know meditation in the east is a very hardcore tradition where you can sit for hundreds thousands of hours in a row meditating your ass off until you reach enlightenment and that's a technique that's a very very very hardcore technique it's very difficult to practice that technique we have to be careful not to bring our ego into this and to say well we need to do it the one most hardcore way we can through meditation you know actually as humanity is evolving we should expect that new technologies will come online that will make it easier and easier to attain enlightenment and that's i think what we're experiencing now because we have the luxury of modern chemistry and we can really study these psychedelic substances really understand what's going on and that will only continue into the future so this is not something to reject this is something to embrace or at the very least try it and verify it for yourself so uh what i've found through my own research and personal experience is that 5mdmt is the most valuable tool we have for enlightenment because what it does is it produces pure 100 ego death very consistently more consistently than all other psychedelics there's not a lot of visuals with this substance you don't go on very mystical sort of journeys you basically remain lucid throughout you can think your thoughts are not distorted they're very clear and what happens is that it just raises your consciousness to infinity while at the same time reducing your ego down to zero which is the ideal technology for enlightenment if you think about it if you think about it you couldn't have even imagined a better technology than this i mean within just five to 15 minutes you will experience god and yourself as absolute infinity what more could you want from a technology this is the perfect technology of course you have to know how to use it and that's what i'm going to talk about here is how do you use this substance and i'm going to give you some guidelines and tips discuss the pros and cons and so forth this just think of this as like meditation taking your current meditation habit or your current self-inquiry habit and multiplying it by a thousand it's not a replacement it's a catalyst okay make sure you get that i'm not advocating that you stop self-actualizing that you stop meditating that you stop self-inquiring no all those things are still necessary but we add the catalyst of 5modmt and that takes you to levels that you couldn't have ever imagined by the way i have a theory about enlightened masters you know sometimes you read those books and they say that somebody had an enlightenment experience and then they became fully enlightened in a flash and they remain that way for the rest of their life that's extremely rare in practice what happens that you need to have multiple enlightenment experiences before they stick the first one usually doesn't stick so one objection people have is that oh well five of me is just a temporary experience well you know what if you're meditating if you're self-inquiring you'll have many temporary units of experiences that will not stick so it doesn't doesn't mean anything right the point is that each one gets your awareness higher and higher and higher and higher until finally something cracks in your brain and then uh enlightenment is had okay my theory about enlightened masters is that firstly there's a genetic component a strong genetic component to which people become enlightened how quickly some people seem to get it really fast easier than others and some people seem to never ever get it in their entire lifetimes why is that because i think there's a genetic component to how your brain is structured and my current theory is that actually 5meo we're finding that it's a natural substance in your brain it's not a foreign substance it's a natural neurotransmitter and that your brain can naturally develop it so with enlightened masters what i think is is that their brain either has parts in it that naturally produce more 5meo which makes it easier for them to become enlightened or they have a higher baseline level of consciousness than the average person and or they use techniques that develop the brain through for example meditation concentration practices yogic practices self-inquiry and so forth they develop their brain over doing that year after year after year after year for thousands of hours to the point where their brain starts to pump out the 5 meo or whatever other chemicals are relevant to produce enlightenment and to sustain that enlightenment okay so this idea that five amio is not natural somehow well maybe it's not natural but also consider maybe it is natural huh so let's talk about 5ml and how it can be used so firstly it comes in two forms the first form is the natural form which comes actually from the buffo alvarius toad here's the picture of the toad it's also called the colorado river toad it lives in only one part of the world which is around the colorado river in the sonoran desert in northern mexico and in southern arizona these toads spend the majority of their time hibernating so you will not find them they come out only during the summer in the rainy season for a few months and then they go back to hibernation these toads produce a substance on their skin from these glands that they have on their arms and their legs and this liquid is 5-meo plus some other chemicals but basically primarily 5-meow and in this you can take this liquid you can collect this liquid you can smoke this liquid and there you have your trip you might have heard about uh psychedelic toads well this is where that myth comes from so actually you can't lick psychedelic toads the way that people sometimes talk about it you can only smoke the substance because it has to be burned first before it can convert into 5-meo which is active in your brain but these are yeah these are the psychedelic toads you've probably heard of these there's only one toad in the entire world that produces 5meo that we know of and this is it so that's one way to acquire this substance although if you ever get the idea to go out there and go find some toes or whatever just keep in mind that um we don't want to put a strain on the toad populations because there's only so many of these toads don't kill these toads don't harm these toads and don't destroy their natural environment if you do go out hunting for them the second form of five meow is the synthetic form this is uh the kind of substance that you create in the laboratory so we know how to create fiber meow in the laboratory here's a picture of what fibo meal looks like in synthetic form it's an off-white tannish sort of powder which has the consistency of moist table salt and the synthetic comes in two forms either the hcl version or the freebase version this is important because the hcl version needs to be snorted not smoked and the freebase version needs to be smoked and not snorted all right and this produces two slightly different effects so this substance can be smoked or snorted if you smoke it it acts extremely quickly within 10 to 20 seconds and very powerfully it just hits you like a sledgehammer so um and then it lasts how long does it last like five or ten minutes or maybe 20 minutes at the most that it lasts then you come back down with snorting the hcl version you snort it takes about five to ten minutes to take effect it comes on more gradually but it's still very very powerful and then the peak lasts longer it lasts for 30 to 40 minutes and then after 40 minutes you come back down to normal personally i haven't smoked it i've only snorted it using the synthetic form and that's mostly what i'm gonna be talking about here but uh you can read the trip reports of people who smoke it versus snort it um there are similar experiences just slightly different in the way that they act i actually think that snorting might be preferable to what we're trying to accomplish here which is we're trying to not only have a peak experience but we're trying to understand what's happening to us so that we can take that understanding back with us into our everyday life and i think that the the length of the peak on snorting is actually more conducive to that i could uh scarcely imagine what it would be like to smoke this substance get pummeled by just absolutely pummeled by it for like five minutes and then come back down and then you're like what the hell was that i have no idea what just happened to me it would be completely disorienting and very confusing so um the idea here is not only are you experiencing it but you're actually understanding what you're experiencing it's very important that you use a milligram scale to weigh the dosages of these substances because whether you're smoking or snorting because 5meo is so potent that every single milligram counts a few milligrams means the difference between a light dose and a heavy dose speaking of which what are the dosages here are the dosages if you're freebasing it which means you're smoking it then you're going to use slightly lower dosages 10 milligrams is a good starting dose 15 milligrams sort of an average dose 20 milligrams is a high dose 25 milligrams is probably the most you should ever do and anything above 25 milligrams is probably overkill and can create health risks below 25 milligrams you should not have health risks if you're a normal healthy individual not on medication and you're not mixing this with alcohol or any other stuff the hcl version you take a little bit more of so 20 milligrams might be a good starting dose uh 25 might be medium and then 30 milligrams might be a breakthrough dose and anything above 30 milligrams you got to be careful with because you're starting to get into uh territory that might cause you health risks if you overdose on 5 meo what's probably going to happen most likely so you're going to go unconscious for the duration of that experience and you're just going to wake back up 10 or 20 or 30 minutes later not knowing what really happened to you you can also experience seizures you can experience all sorts of heart issues because it elevates your heart rate elevates your blood pressure and so forth so you do have to be careful there and i'll talk more about that as we continue the highest i've done is 30 milligrams that was my breakthrough experience to experience absolute infinity that's what you should be aiming towards is a breakthrough experience you don't want to just try this substance and then just see what it does once you want to work to the breakthrough experience start low work up high until you get your breakthrough okay that way you know that you're not going to overshoot if you slowly work your way up what's the procedure for snorting the substance this is interesting i did some trial and error and found a pretty good method that works for me let me share with you first what i do is i weigh out my dose into two halves so if i'm going to take 30 milligrams let's say i'll weigh out 15 and then another batch of 15 milligrams why two halves because you got two nostrils and you want to divide the dose equally between the nostrils so that more of it can be absorbed what you do then is you create a little plastic tube you can either get a plastic straw cut it so that it's short or you can take a little piece of paper or like a post-it note and roll it up into a little tube short little tube which you can stick in your nose and then snort this uh these two piles of white powder when you snort it it's going to feel like you just snorted some finely ground white ground pepper into your nostrils which you can imagine is going to burn and sting a bit and some people don't like that sensation but actually i find it kind of uh oddly interesting and kind of like pleasant it's not pleasant but it's kind of like this odd interesting sensation which isn't too much of a problem for me because the experience you're about to go into is going to be so freaking explosive and crazy that you're not going to have any issues you're going to completely forget any little physical discomforts that you have from snorting the substance now the key that i found is that after you snort it go quickly sit on your couch because you got about five or ten minutes until this really hits you hard and what you need to do as you're sitting on your couch and just relaxing is tilt your head upside down so that this substance doesn't leak out of your front nose and it doesn't leak back out down your throat if it leaks out the front or the back you're going to lose a large quantity of the substance it's not going to absorb into the nostril tissues and you're not going to have the trip that you were expecting it's going to be far far far less so what you need to do what i do is i sit on the couch i tilt my head down almost until it's touching the carpet floor and i just leave it like that for about five or ten minutes because i just want the all that stuff to kind of accumulate in my nose and not drip down anywhere and uh get absorbed into the flesh of the nose and then go straight to my brain and as your head is down there you're gonna start to feel this thing quickly quickly taking effect on you after about five or ten minutes when you know that this stuff has really gotten absorbed then you can lift your head back up and just sit back and relax uh you'll probably have still a little bit of leakage so have some tissues handy to just kind of like wipe your nose but also keep sniffing it all in don't let it leak out like this just keep sniffing it in throughout the whole experience so that you can get as much of your trip as you can you don't want to waste the substance and then yeah all you got to do is wait five or 10 minutes and then it's going to hit you really really hard what's the experience feel like of taking 5 meo well at first what you're going to experience is you're going to experience terror fear and panic the first time i took five meow i took a small dose just to test it out and i experienced a full-blown panic attack because remember what the substance does is it rips your ego away from you your ego is everything you hold dear in life it's your entire life you're facing your death here and i'm not exaggerating it will feel like you're dying at first not because it's painful but just because it feels like you're going away and you're not sure if you're ever coming back of course you're coming back but you're not sure of that when it's happening to you and it feels quite weird and your consciousness starts skyrocketing and your ego starts dipping down to zero and that can be a pretty freaky experience if you're not ready for that so you're gonna have to face your own death before you can see god you see because the only thing blocking you from god is your ego that has to go but that won't go without a struggle you know i've never had a panic attack in my entire life i'm not a very panicky person i'm pretty emotionally grounded but here i took the substance and i had all these negative thoughts like what did i do maybe i poisoned myself where is this going to take me because i knew it was going to be powerful although i still didn't know how powerful is going to be but uh yeah it made me freak out for about five or ten minutes and what i have to do is just completely calm myself down through meditation and um just relaxing my body letting everything all the muscles kind of relax opening my body up to surrender to the experience and so once i surrender to the experience it just took me over overwhelmed me and then i got to the peak the peak experience is nothing short of experiencing god as absolute infinity god is not a person don't anthropomorphize god god is absolutely everything that's possible that's what god is so you can experience that you can become that and when you do become that it'll be such a shocking experience to you that you will think your life has ended and that you have ascended to nirvana and that you have experienced full awakening and it'll feel like this is it this is permanent like nothing can ever touch you again you will feel untouchable you will feel immortal and these will not be delusions this will be truth this will feel more true to you than anything you've ever known in your entire life and you will immediately recognize that your entire life what you call reality what we collectively call human reality that this is a this is a dream and that you finally awoken from it it's extremely powerful it's a life-changing experience you could meditate for 10 or 20 years and not go this deep it's that powerful it's so powerful that i've read reports of 5meo being used to treat heroin addiction it's very effective against heroin addiction what they do is they take a 20-year heroin addict who's been living on the streets his whole life for 20 years taking like two or three grams of heroin per day for 20 years and they give this guy a hit of 5meo and he's cured in one hit even though this guy has tried methadone he's tried therapy he's tried rehab many many times and nothing helped him but he gets one hit of five meow he sees god and his whole life has been flipped upside down from that point on that doesn't happen with every heroin addict but it's actually a quite common story among heroin addicts and this substance 5meo is gaining popularity and it's being used in medical context for example in mexico to very successfully treat uh substance addiction from heroin to other drugs to alcohol it's proven very powerful for that now imagine imagine how powerful of an experience you would have to have if you were a 20-year heroin junkie and nothing has ever helped you that one of these experiences cures you imagine how powerful that experience would have to be now you have a little bit of an idea of what fmeo can offer now some people might say well leo what you're talking about here sounds way too good to be true what's the catch here i mean it sounds like you're saying i can just take this pill and get enlightened well not so fast first of all there's a lot of ignorance about 5ml you wonder how come is not everybody taking five emil well first of all it's illegal in many places uh and it's illegal because people don't know what it can do also most people don't know about it even people who do psychedelics don't know about fidemio because they're simply ignorant you know now because you've been very lucky to hear about it for me and chances are if you haven't heard it from me you haven't heard it from anybody else so at this point in human uh civilization and history most people don't know about five meow if everybody knew about five meow we'd be living in a totally different world so there's the catch of ignorance there's also the catch of close-mindedness most people including maybe yourself are too closed-minded to actually take this substance and to experience everything it has to offer you because i'll tell you this if you take this substance every single one of your world views and beliefs whether it's religious or scientific or atheistic or whatever will be shattered are you open to that if you're not you won't even come close to this substance that's a freaky thing when all your beliefs and ideas about reality are shattered within minutes many people can't handle that many people aren't emotionally or psychologically mature enough to deal with that there's also your ego which is a huge catch your ego will do anything it can to maintain itself to maintain its delusion and to not die and with this substance you're going to be subjecting your ego to death and you might say well leo that's fine i don't care about ego death that's not a big deal to me you don't know yet what it's like to face your own death for real not as an idea but for real right now you feel like oh yeah i can do it i have no problem with that but then when you snort that substance up your nose and you got five or ten minutes until it starts kicking in oh and then you're gonna feel it then you're gonna feel what it's like and whether you're really ready or not to die and whether you can surrender to that or whether you're going to resist yourself and fight it all the way see so that's a huge obstacle and a huge catch here also 5meo is quite rare it's difficult to find it's not popular amongst regular psychedelic users you're not going to find your weed dealer providing you with 5meo you're going to have to go out of your way to find it just several years ago it was outlawed in the united states believe it or not four years ago 5meo was technically legal uh also very recently just a year ago it was outlawed in china that's important because the majority of the production of 5meo takes place in china so now that it's been outlawed in china you can't manufacture it there illegally and so supplies of it are very short so that makes it even harder to acquire 5meo is still legal in some areas for example in mexico still illegal in mexico so in theory if you wanted to try it legally you could go visit mexico find somebody who provides it and have your trip and by the way that would be totally worth it if you had to pay several thousand dollars or even travel halfway around the world to mexico to try five meow it would still be totally worth it because this experience will completely change your whole life forever you see um if it costs you a million dollars to have this experience one time in your life it would still be worth it this experience is worth more i think than you know some people pay millions of dollars some rich people to like fly out into space they'll pay 10 20 million dollars to have the russians fly them out into space so they can look down on the earth and that's like supposed to be a very cosmic sort of experience right once in a lifetime sort of experience i would bet you that 5meo will do more for you than if you flew out into outer space and saw the earth from [Music] from your spaceship that's how powerful it is and you know people travel to places like peru all the time to do ayahuasca ceremonies and uh 5meo is way more powerful than ayahuasca it's going to be way more pleasant than ayahuasca and peru is much further than mexico from most places another catch is that one dose of fiber meal will not enlighten you i think it'll give you a genuine experience of your absolute nature as god in absolutely everything and also nothing but it's not going to make you permanently enlightened so is it a magic pill well i'm going to talk more about that as we continue because i think that there's a possibility to use it towards enlightenment but that's more than just the way that most people use it most people even if they have tried five meo they took it once or twice they experienced something crazy and far out there and now they're just back to normal and that's it but that's not what i'm interested in what i'm interested in is full enlightenment how do you get full enlightenment well first of all you have to be serious about enlightenment and most people who do psychedelics are not they don't even know about enlightenment that's another catch to this whole thing is that most people are not serious about non-duality so even if they do psychedelics it doesn't do much for them you have to be a student a deep student of nonduality you have to be a deep practitioner of it already to really get the benefits here also there's a risk of abuse with 5 meo it could have potentially lethal and other serious psychological and health consequences you could overdose on it you could do it in the wrong setting you could do it at a party or something like that you know um you could do it and you can misinterpret it because you haven't really studied nonduality so there's a lot of potential catches here and why this thing is not just a straightforward magic pill that just any idiot can use you have to be careful and intelligent about how you use it it's a powerful tool and like every powerful tool it can be abused speaking of which let me give you some warnings and tips for how to use this safely and effectively first of all remember that this will create an experience of total psychological death in you are you ready for that can you handle that or are you going to freak out if you're going to freak out don't take it if you can't surrender to death don't take it also don't take 5mm if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure because what will happen especially in the first 5 or 10 minutes is that your heart rate will go through the roof as you're experiencing your death also don't take it if you are on various kinds of medications especially something like anti-depression medication or antipsychotic medications do not mix 5m with those don't take this if you're mentally unstable don't take this if you're under 21. i don't recommend it because you're not going to be mature enough to fully understand and appreciate and integrate this experience chances are it'll just freak you out and leave you confused build your foundation first then you can take it always start with a low dose and this is interesting because with 5mao actually the low dose is more likely to give you a panic attack than a high dose because what the low dose will do is remove your ego sort of but not give you a big enough boost to your consciousness to experience absolute infinity so the low dose actually will freak you out more but i still think you should start with a low dose get the freak out out of the way with your first dose and then all your successive doses will go a lot smoother it'll be a lot easier also don't start with a large dose because you just don't know how much it'll affect you you know for some people they might be very very sensitive and so for the for them even an average dose might actually turn out to be too high it's super critical that you weigh your dose very carefully and accurately make sure you have a milligram scale remember that every milligram counts and make sure your scale is calibrated properly only do five mo in a safe setting i recommend only doing it at home when you have the whole day off nothing to do you've removed all the dangerous objects in your house all the knives all the swords all the guns uh any sources of fire or flame and do it in your living room where you don't have any sharp corners nothing you can hit your head against or something like this right so make your setting very very safe comfortable and so that nobody ever distracts you don't do it outside don't do it at a party don't do it with a bunch of friends that's all nonsense surrender fully to the experience this is the number one rule that you need to remember to have a good experience on five meo fully surrender what does this mean this means when you're starting to have negative thoughts you're starting to freak out and tense up and your body starts to contort and close up what you need to do is the only thing you really can do is open your body up physically make sure your arms are crossed your legs aren't crossed open yourself up relax your body let every muscle go limp and loose and relax your mind use any kind of meditative techniques that you have and just calm yourself down and completely give yourself over to the experience come what may that means if you're gonna die you're gonna die and you're fine with it you just accept it and you give into it now that's a tall order to fill many people can't do that in which case well you might have a horrible horrible horrible experience so 5 meo will blast you into absolute infinity but you still have control and if you decide that you don't want to go to absolute infinity if you decide that you're going to hold back and you're just going to sit in your little ego and that you're not ready to die and all this kind of stuff if you get egotistical once you've taken the substance that's going to be like pushing the gas full throttle in your car and hitting the brakes right after that's going to be the effect it's not going to be pleasant right you will basically eliminate the possibility of all the positive amazing stuff you can experience and magnify all the negative stuff because you're going to be resisting it full throttle and that's going to be terrible if you read trip reports about 5meo it has a huge range of trip reports from the most horrific and hellish that you can possibly imagine to the most beautiful and divine why is that i think mostly that is because people who try it are not actually aware of what the ego is and what it means to surrender the ego they haven't done any kind of preparatory work they don't understand non-duality at all and so they're freaked out and once they start to get towards the higher end of the experience they say nope nope nope no i'm not gonna i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not ready to die and they're going to cling and then that's when they have their hellish experiences so if you've taken the substance and you're sitting there on the couch and you're just waiting for time to take down and you're freaking out just remember what leo told you fully surrender and open your body fully surrender and open your body this is the thing that will save you and the last tip i'll give you is give yourself time to integrate the experience so after you come back down you're going to be sort of like normal except you've seen something that no other human being around you has ever seen this is going to freak you out it's going to shatter your notions of what's real and what's possible in life everything's going to be turned upside down in your life you're not going to know what this means for your relationships for your career for your marriage for your kids and everything else and so you need to give yourself time to to work through that not to hide it under the rug not to run away from it but to work through it that's where the real growth comes in see a lot of people think like oh this is a magic pill it avoids you having to do any emotional work actually no this is a catalyst that thrusts you into dealing with all your inner demons and the more inner demons you have the more [ __ ] you will have come up and that you will have to deal with see so be prepared for that give yourself time the day after to do that don't just run off to work and then shove this under the rug also 5-meow seems to have no tolerance which means you can take it often if you want to take it every day it seems like you can i haven't tried it but seems like you can but i would recommend that you don't take it more often than once a week just so you make sure you don't develop a psychological dependence on it this substance is not addictive but any substance or anything in life you can develop a psychological addiction to you can develop a psychological addiction to sleeping or walking or talking right so um so you can with 5meo but it doesn't seem to have a tolerance like other psychedelics so you can do it often but i recommend waiting at least a week probably a good idea if you're going to be taking this habitually in order to work on your consciousness probably want to do it maybe twice a month at the most because this is such a powerful substance there is no way you can integrate this stuff in just one or two days you need to give yourself time to come back down really think about it integrate it fully um after my last breakthrough dose i haven't done it for a month even though i kind of want to but every time i want to i kind of just go oh man it was such a powerful experience i don't know if i'm ready right now to handle that maybe i'll wait another week and so i've been waiting a week a week a week a week and a month has gone by see and i don't feel like it's addictive to me at all it's actually quite frightening it's quite challenging it's very emotionally challenging even though it's very beautiful what about the health effects well i think that if you're a normal healthy psychologically mature adult then you should not experience any negative health effects but of course we can't be sure about that there's risk with any medication you take whether it's a non-prescription drug or a prescription drug right we just don't know that's why you want to try small doses but from anecdotal evidence from other people who've done it it seems like you can do five meal hundreds maybe even thousands of times without any negative health consequences one of the reasons i think that that is is because five meow is a neurotransmitter that naturally occurs in your brain already so the only way you can really damage yourself is by overdosing which you have to be careful about but if you don't overdose i don't really see serious long-term consequences um generally speaking remember your health i don't know about your health i don't know about your genetics everybody's different everyone's unique so the risk is totally on you you have to take full responsibility if you want to play around with this substance and the other thing i'll warn you about is that you have to be careful with how fibre meal potentiates all their psychedelics after you do your 5 meo trip and you come back and then let's say a month later you want to try some mushrooms or some lsd or some dmt regular dmt you might be shocked to learn that your mushroom trip even at the low doses is going to be epic epic epic epic and deep because after 5 meo everything else becomes a little bit like 5 meo and you start to see the infinite the absolute infinity on any psychedelic that you're on i took a mushroom a low mushroom dose about a week after my big five meow experience and man that um that was a really tough mushroom trip because it it really took me by surprise it blindsided me because i was expecting some fun little light experience and i got this very very heavy deep um dose because it was potentiated by the 5meo that i had a week prior can 5meo be used for enlightenment that's the million dollar question and uh that's the most beautiful thing i think that i've discovered is that it can my theory is that five meow if used repeatedly and in conjunction with meditation and self-inquiry and personal development if all of that does if all that is done simultaneously over a long period of time like over the period of a year then what will happen is that eventually these peak experience that you're having on five mio they will crack your mind open they will crack the ego they will sort of deliver a mortal wound and eventually your ego will bleed dry and you will then become permanently enlightened that's my theory i've discovered one person who has done it this way and it's worked for him this way i will actually be interviewing that person i actually already interviewed him i just need to post the video and that will probably happen over the next month or two so look out for that that'll be very interesting um but i also intend to field test this theory myself so over the next year what you will see with me if you want you stay tuned watch me and we'll see what happens to me with this sort of practice what will happen what will happen to my consciousness where will it take me i'm still continuing my meditation habits still continuing myself inquiry habits still doing all the personal development habits so all those are still in effect for me this is just a catalyst it's not really a magic pill because it's still emotionally taxing this is not easy work you will still have to work through all your inner demons you'll just have to work through them faster rather than spreading out all this inner demon work over the course of 10 or 20 years it's going to be condensed into the course of one year you see faster tougher but also uh the fruits should come faster too this would be not much different than enrolling yourself for example in a zen monastery because you want to catalyze your progress towards enlightenment well this is sort of like that just uh a different technology i actually think that 5meo culturally at this point in our human evolution might be the most important technology that we have right now we don't need faster computers and faster airplanes and bigger nuclear weapons all right we've got enough of that humanity as really a tipping point right now because collectively our ego is so vast and our ignorance is so deep and our wisdom is so shallow and our consciousness is so low as a species that over the next 200 years we have a real chance of annihilating ourselves or damaging this ecosystem that we're on uh critically okay because right now what we have is we have materialism run amok religious dogma run a book political ideologies run amok and there's no end in sight it doesn't look pretty humanity needs to wise up and needs to wake up and what's going to do that the traditional enlightenment path that's very very [ __ ] hard it's grueling i'm not even sure that most human beings can handle it given their upbringing and given their genetics quite frankly i don't even know if their minds and their brains can handle it but with 5meo this is a technology that we recently discovered that can make god empirical you see it can make higher consciousness an empirical tangible thing a scientific thing rather than some sort of airy fairy woo-woo thing only for deeply religious people that's been the problem for the last 2000 years that we've had religious people but those religious people have actually distorted religion they have turned religion into a technology that actually prevents people from becoming enlightened rather than facilitates it and then the scientific community has reacted against that because the scientific community thinks that all that is hogwash and so the truth is lost in the midst of all that well here we have the perfect technology if there's anything that will make enlightenment mainstream it's m eo because you can take it no matter who you are republican democrat christian hindu muslim young or old developed or undeveloped rich or poor you can take this substance and within 15 minutes if you surrender to it and you're open-minded you will experience the deepest wisdom that our religious traditions and our spiritual traditions are founded upon and that will be a life transforming experience for you that will break your ego down so that you stop creating this cycle of self-destruction both individually in your life and collectively as part of the community and part of the species so i actually think that five amio is more than just uh a psychedelic and it's more than just a way to personal enlightenment it really could be uh the salvation of the human race and so in the future i anticipate that i'll actually be a champion of five meow and um i look forward to getting more people to know about it because i think uh quite frankly the uh the future of humanity could depend upon it so follow with me follow my journey if you want see what you can experiment with on yourself i will be adding some new books to my book list about psychedelics and about 5meo that will give you more of a deeper understanding of the tradition of psychedelics as it stretches back into our very beginning as a civilization and that will be some good research i always recommend if you're going to get into psychedelics make sure you do the groundwork and the research about where they come from and how they work and who's used them and what kind of experiences people have had so
