Similarly, on the left below is a traditional Shipibo woven cloth, whose design represents a sacred pattern derived from a cosmic anaconda whose skin embodies all possible designs. Shipibo shamans employ these patterns to reorder the bodies of persons who are sick. Certain diseases are thought to be caused by harmful, messy designs on the wsick body, which the shaman must magically unravel and replace with orderly designs. After drinking ayahuasca, the Shipibo shaman sees a luminous design in the air. When this design floats down and touches the shaman’s lips it becomes transformed into a song the shaman sings. Different elements of the song relate to different elements of the design; for example, the end of each verse is associated with the end-curl of a design motif. When the patient is cured, the design has become clear, neat, and complete. Again, this abstract representation is strikingly reflected in Vibrata Chromodoris's Emergence, below on the right.

I found a website/forum that tells you how to make DMT out of mimosa bark. Have you ever heard of anything like that?

Well, here's the link. I have no interest in psychedelics (can we say, "bad trip waiting to happen"? lol), but I thought you might be interested. It sounds VERY easy to make.

No problem, I thought you might be interested. ;) I just made the previous comment yesterday. Livejournal gets kind of wonky sometimes with notifications.
