Hello, Sundaze remains on McKenna's tracks, his voice takes us once again into the jungle as he recalls being 'Camped by a Doorway ' in the fourthinstalment of his True Hallucinations book, But wait there's much more today. There's the documantairy about how the ancients, specially the egyptians grasped the workings of the pineal gland in the 45 min video, split in parts on line at google but here its available as a 145 mb download...it's well worth watching, one of the experts appearing is Rick Strassman, his book, The Spirit Molecule -DMT is available as a PDF if you ever doubted that this 3D reality is all there is you should definetely get and share a copy.. Now if that aint enough theres the secend instalment of the Tuxedomoon DVD 7707 a collection of video's they made or you could just satisfy yourself with the Audiorip from it...

Rick Strassman - DMT, The Spirit Molecule (PDF 367 pages, 2mb)
Rick Strassman's overview of his book ;
In 1990, I began the first new human research with psychedelic, or hallucinogenic, drugs in the United States in over 20 years. These studies investigated the effects of N, N-dimethyltryptamine, or DMT, an extremely short-acting and powerful psychedelic. During the project\'s five years, I administered approximately 400 doses of DMT to 60 human volunteers. This research took place at the University of New Mexico\'s School of Medicine in Albuquerque, where I was tenured Associate Professor of Psychiatry. I was drawn to DMT because of its presence in all of our bodies. Perhaps excessive DMT production, coming from the mysterious pineal gland, was involved in naturally occurring \"psychedelic\" states. These might include birth, death and near-death, psychosis, and mystical experiences. Only later, while the study was well under way, did I also begin considering DMT\'s role in the \"alien abduction\" experience. The DMT project was founded on cutting edge brain science, especially the psychopharmacology of serotonin. However, my own background powerfully affected how we prepared people for, and supervised, their drug sessions. One of these was a decades-long relationship with a Zen Buddhist training monastery.
The Spirit Molecule examines what we know about psychedelic drugs in general, and DMT in particular. It then traces the DMT research project from its earliest intimations through the maze of committees and review boards to its actual performance.
Our research subjects were healthy volunteers. The studies were not intended to be therapeutic, although all of us believed in the potentially beneficial properties of psychedelic drugs. The project generated a wealth of biological and psychological data, much of which I have already published in the scientific literature. On the other hand, I have written nearly nothing about volunteers\' stories. I hope these many excerpts from over 1000 pages of my bedside notes provide a sense of the remarkable emotional, psychological, and spiritual effects of this chemical.
Problems inside and outside of the research environment led to the end of these studies in 1995. Despite the difficulties we encountered, I am optimistic about the possible benefits of the controlled use of these drugs. Based upon what we learned in the New Mexico research, I offer a wide-ranging vision for DMT\'s role in our lives, and conclude by proposing a research agenda and optimal setting for future work with DMT and related drugs.
The late Willis Harman possessed one of the most discerning minds to apply himself to the field of psychedelic research. Willis, earlier in his career, had published the first and only scientific study using psychedelics to enhance the creative process. When I met him 30 years later in 1994, he was president of Institute of Noetic Sciences, an organization founded by the sixth man to walk on the moon, Edgar Mitchell. Mitchell\'s mystical experience, stimulated by viewing the Earth on his return home, inspired him to study phenomenon outside the range of traditional science, which nevertheless might yield to a broader application of the scientific method.
During a long walk together along the central California coastal range one day, he said firmly, \"At the very least, we must enlarge the discussion about psychedelics.\" It is in response to his request that I include highly speculative ideas and my own personal motivations for performing this research. This approach will satisfy no one in every respect. There is intense friction between what we know intellectually or even intuitively, and what we experience with the aid of DMT. As one of our volunteers exclaimed after his first high dose session, \"Wow! I never expected that!\" Or, as Dogen, a thirteenth century Japanese Buddhist teacher said, \"We must always be disturbed by the truth.\" Enthusiasts of the psychedelic drug culture may dislike the conclusion that DMT has no beneficial effects in and of itself; rather, the context in which people take them is at least as important. Proponents of drug control may condemn what they read as encouragement to take psychedelic drugs and a glorification of the DMT experience. Practitioners and spokespersons of traditional religions may reject the suggestion that spiritual states can be accessed, and mystical information gained, through drugs. Those who have undergone \"alien abduction,\" and their advocates, may interpret as a challenge to the \"reality\" of their experiences my suggestion that DMT is intimately involved in these events. Opponents and supporters of abortion rights may find fault with my proposal that pineal DMT release at 49 days after conception marks the entrance of the spirit into the fetus.

The Prisoner is presented to the President of the Assembly. He watches the trials of Number Forty Eight and the resuscitated Number Two. It is now his chance to finally meet Number ne. As chaos breaks out, The Prisoner leaves the Village and heads for London.
Whilst visiting Sir Ronald Rolands at a retreat after his sudden nervous breakdown, Nebulous's suspicions are aroused that Sir Ronald's sanity didn't jump but was pushed, when the minister goes berserk again after seeing a picture of his newly decorated office. Meanwhile, the Vartox Paint Company's brand new colour 'garrow' is not only being applied to KENT's office walls, but every Government building across the country. What is the connection and can Nebulous find out before beige is outclassed as the planet's most stressful colour scheme?
This lecture by Dr. Bruce Lipton deals with his book , Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles is a former medical school professor and research scientist (Stanford University School of Medicine). He has been a guest speaker on dozens of TV and radio shows, as well as keynote presenter for national conferences. Through his experiments, examining in exquisite detail the molecular mechanisms by which cells process information and his palpable passion for the amazing world of the cell, he has demonstrated that genes do not control our health and behavior... but that our it is our thoughts that influence the genes and therefore the cells, and therefore..... These influences include our perceptions and beliefs. He shows that our beliefs, true or false, positive or negative, affect genetic activity and actually alter our genetic code. Dr. Lipton's profoundly hopeful work, being hailed as one of the major breakthroughs in the New Sciences, shows how we can retrain our consciousness to create healthy beliefs, and by doing so intentionally create positive effect on our bodies and our lives.
After all the attempts to break Number Six have failed, Number Two decides the only way to obtain the information wanted is by using a system known as "Degree Absolute". A Battle that will leave one of them dead. If Number Six wins, he will have survived the ultimate test and meet Number One.
