THUS
psychedelics can
bring about certain
alterations of sense perception,
of emotional level and tone,
of identity feeling, of the interpretation
of sense data and of
the sensations
of time and
space.

IN
many cultures
other than our
own, psychedelics have been
traditionally linked with phenomena of
extra~sensory perception: tribal medicine {wo}men
all over the world have used it
since the immemorial past,
yet the doctors of today quite often still have
some difficulty in carrying out research with these herbs
on human subjects because of legal restrictions
[fear, danger, hallucinations, psychotic situations a.s.o.]!
Certain tinctures & ointments contained only fractions of the active principles of these plants,
and to be able to experience the complete effects of psychedelics
one must use the plants themselves and preferably not all kinds of illegal, clandestine, criminal, commercial and potentially
very dangerous or even deathly concoctions and mixtures
'on the market'?!
In spite
[or just because?] of the fact that it is illegal 'all over the world',
throughout the the Middle East hashish smoking and eating was widespread,
though considered a lower class habit:
in India too, those who practise it are regarded as old~fashioned
by the rest of the population,
while the reverse used to be true in the United States of North America en in Europa,
where smokers tended to consider themselves as a kind of exclusive
and advanced 'in~group'!
Penalties for possession & trade vary considerably,
and seem to be heaviest in the USA & the Far East?
But in spite of these heavy penalties, the black market
in all kind of very different illegal narcotic &
'psychedelic' drugs
continues to
grow
