Salvia divinorum - a journey into yourself (Book I)

I got familiar with Salvia divinorum (Seer’s sage) about ten years ago. During these years I’ve had more than 1500 sessions and got to know many secrets…


In this book I want to share a lot of useful practical information and also tell readers amazing stories that happened to me.


Until the present time scientists didn’t know this kind of sage existed. The Western world was first introduced to it by Swedish anthropologist J. Johnson in 1939. For some reason Medicine men of Mazatec, living in the mountains of Sierra Madre, weren’t eager to tell foreigners about the magic effects of Salvia. It is possible that Mexican shamans kept the secrets of Salvia for more than thousand years…


But the most interesting thing was that Western scientists didn’t manage to figure out what the origin of the plant was. There’s an opinion that Salvia’s an extraterrestrial hybrid which was intentionally brought to the Earth by aliens who wanted to make us humans more conscious. Anyway, no other wild species, which Salvia could descend from, was found by botanists.


During the chemical analysis which was done in 1982 by Alfredo Ortega, an unknown psychoactive constituent, salvinorin A, was found in the plant. Eventually, the scientists recognized salvinorin A as the strongest vegetable hallucinogen, ten times stronger than psilocybin (also a psychedelic compound).
