 I like it. most interesting article I've seen in a while; rather obscure one too. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted." ~ hassan i sabbah

•LSD increased the attribution of meaning to previously meaningless music •Simulation of the 5-HT2A receptor is crucial for the generation of meaning

Just another day on the Nexus. I've been very interested in finding literature on harmala alkaloids for the last year. The search engines I'm using just aren't up to the task and often when I find something interesting all I get to see is an abstract. Fortunately tonight an obscure DuckDuckGo listing led me to a dmt nexus thread that in turn led me to this decade old thread. I've been clicking and scrolling for hours now, absolutely floored by the sheer volume in information in this particular thread. My curiosity and patience paid off as I neared the bottom of the last page of this thread. All I can say is thanks to everyone who contributed here and especially to dreamer042 for the massive harmala data dump. Harmala has been a great ally for me and I need to be able to speak coherently on the subject. Simply saying "it's good for me" isn't likely to convince anyone who is dealing with my particular set of issues to look at beta carbolines. I now have more information than I can process and much of it will lead to more research so I can better understand the data as presented. As a layman I recognize the pitfalls of "just enough knowledge to be dangerous" so at some point I may ask one of our more astute members (astuter than me, anyway) for clarification. It seems like every time I visit the nexus my ignorance level falls in direct proportion to my rising level of gratitude. In that sense this was just another day on the nexus. Thanks friends. Be regular and orderly in your life, that you may be violent and original in your work. -Flaubert-

I am looking for The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Physiology, Vol. 2"It contains Manske's method for P. harmala extraction for which I need more details. I can find it on Science Direct, but it's of course paid and I need to be registered. The book is not avaiable on sci-hub nor torrents... I am lost. Can you help me get that material if you have possibly free access to it?

I posted this elsewhere before I found this post. Please forgive the duplication QEEG STUDIES OF THE ACUTE EFFECTS OF THE VISIONARY TRYPTAMINE DMT I realize that no one book, one person, or even one ideology will have all the answers. I believe my job is to remain open yet discriminating. My intuition helps me discern truth, and wisdom helps me identify malicious intentions.
