Hi all (no pun intended)

No doubt many of you have already read the recent articles in the Sunday
Times or the Guardian, re the forthcoming High Times article by Chris
Bennett. In case you haven't I've included some relevant links below. They
concern an article in February's issue, in which Bennett provides
substantiated claims that Jesus used cannabis to heal the sick, perform
miracles and presumably, as a religious sacrement. Chris claims that it was
used in a special oil called kaneh-bosem, and was apparently mixed with
Olive Oil at a ratio of 1lb per quart of oil, thereby making it absorbable
through the skin. Christ, it appears is derived from a Greek word meaning
the annointed one, and, it looks as though recipients of this healing were
literally drenched with the oil, which also contained other fragrant herbs.

Readers of Mike Jay's book, Blue Tide, will also be aware of the use of
Harmaline i.e. Syrian Rue, based sacraments in the Middle East area in
biblical times, and, of course there are the theories by Wasson et al re
Soma of Vedic scriptures. I'd be very interested to hear from anyone else
that might have anything else to contribute, especially on the use of
entheogens by Gnostic Christians and entheogen use in 'Mystery Religions' of
the christian and pre christian Greek, Egyption and Middle Eastern eras.

There was me feeling all sorry 'cos those early Christians kept getting
stoned to death & all!

Laughter aside, if there is as much truth in this as we all do doubt suspect
there is, it would surely constitute pretty much the cover-up of the second
millenium, and means, as Chris points out (Dana Beal's gonna love this
bit!), that "If cannabis was one of the main ingredients of the ancient
Christian anointing oil, as history indicates, and receiving this oil is
what made Jesus the Christ and his followers Christians, then persecuting
those who use cannabis could be considered anti-Christ."

So then, was Jesus, as he claims, a stoner, or, as I deeply suspect myself,
a fully fledged trip-nut?
Comments?

Cannabis linked to Biblical healing

Many of the miracles concerned healing
Jesus Christ and his apostles may have used a cannabis-based anointing oil to help cure people with crippling diseases, it has been claimed.
Researchers in the United States say the oil used in the early days of the Christian church contained a cannabis extract called kaneh-bosem.

They suggest the extract, which is absorbed into the body when placed on the skin, could have helped cure people with a variety of physical and mental problems.
 The medical use of cannabis during that time is supported by archaeological records

Chris Bennet
The author of the article, published in the US drugs magazine High Times, says his findings are based on a study of scriptural texts.

Wide use
The article does not question the validity of the miracles reported in the Bible but rather examines whether the early Christian Church may have made use of substances with an active medical effect.

It does not rule out the role played by blind faith in Christ.

Chris Bennett said cannabis was widely used at the time to heal the sick.

"The medical use of cannabis during that time is supported by archaeological records."

He said the ancient anointing oil contained high levels of cannabis extract.

"The holy anointing oil, as described in the original Hebrew version of the recipe in Exodus, contained over six pounds of keneh-bosum - a substance identified by respected etymology, linguists anthropologists, botanists and other researchers as cannabis extracted into about six quarts of olive oil along with a variety of other fragrant herbs.

"The ancient annointed ones were literally drenched in this potent mixture."

Miracles
Mr Bennett suggested the drug may have played a role in some healing miracles carried out by Jesus and his disciples.

He wrote: "In the ancient world, diseases such as epilepsy were attributed to demonic possession.

"To cure somebody of such an illness, even with the aid of certain herbs was considered exorcism or miraculous healing.

 Jesus often becomes the final hope for the pharmacologically impaired

JesusJournal.com
"Interestingly, cannabis has been shown to be effective in the treatment of not only epilepsy but many of the other ailments that Jesus and the disciples healed people of such as skin diseases, eye problems and menstrual problems."

Mr Bennett said the findings suggested that it was unchristian to persecute people who used cannabis.

"If cannabis was one of the main ingredients of the ancient Christian anointing oil, as history indicates, and receiving this oil is what made Jesus the Christ and his followers Christians, then persecuting those who use cannabis could be considered anti-Christ."

However, Christian groups in the United States have rejected Mr Bennett's claims.

They have insisted that the arguments made in the article are lame.

In a response to the article published on JesusJournal.com, critics said: "As many of us know firsthand, Jesus often becomes the final hope for the pharmacologically impaired."
John Cunyus, the author of a book on Christian healing, said: "Well, the Bible does say that St. Stephen was stoned... but perhaps not in that sense!"

JESUS 'HEALED USING CANNABIS'
Jesus was almost certainly a cannabis user and an early proponent of
the medicinal properties of the drug, according to a study of
scriptural texts published this month.  The study suggests that Jesus
and his disciples used the drug to carry out miraculous healings.
The anointing oil used by Jesus and his disciples contained an
ingredient called kaneh-bosem which has since been identified as
cannabis extract, according to an article by Chris Bennett in the
drugs magazine, High Times, entitled Was Jesus a Stoner? The incense
used by Jesus in ceremonies also contained a cannabis extract,
suggests Mr Bennett, who quotes scholars to back his claims.
"There can be little doubt about a role for cannabis in Judaic
religion," Carl Ruck, professor of classical mythology at Boston
University said.
Referring to the existence of cannabis in anointing oils used in
ceremonies, he added: "Obviously the easy availability and
long-established tradition of cannabis in early Judaism...  would
inevitably have included it in the [Christian] mixtures."
Mr Bennett suggests those anointed with the oils used by Jesus were
"literally drenched in this potent mixture...  Although most modern
people choose to smoke or eat pot, when its active ingredients are transferred into an oil-based carrier, it can also be absorbed through
the skin".
Quoting the New Testament, Mr Bennett argues that Jesus anointed his
disciples with the oil and encouraged them to do the same with other
followers.  This could have been responsible for healing eye and skin
diseases referred to in the Gospels.
"If cannabis was one of the main ingredients of the ancient anointing
oil...  and receiving this oil is what made Jesus the Christ and his
followers Christians, then persecuting those who use cannabis could be
considered anti-Christ," Mr Bennett concludes.

Half A Deck--Terence McKenna
We're playing with half a deck as long as we tolerate that the cardinals
of government and science should dictate where human curiousity can
legitimately send its attention and where it can not. It's an essentially
preposterous situation. It is essentially a civil rights issue because
what we're talking about here is the repression of a religious
sensibility. In fact not a religious sensibility, the
religious sensibility. Not built on some con game spun out by
eunichs, but based on the symbiotic relationship that was in place
for our species for fifty thousand years before the advent of history,
writing, priestcraft and propaganda. So it's a clarion call to recover a
birthright.

A NEW OPPOSITION FRONT IN THE DRUG WAR

Criminalizing Peaceful People Who Use Psychoactive Drugs To Deepen Their
Spiritual Life Is Criminal Itself, Some Groups Are Arguing

A new front has opened in opposition to the war on drugs--a religious front.

Several newly formed groups are contesting our prohibitionist, anti-drug
strategies because they restrict religious freedom and "cognitive liberty."

Drugs alter consciousness and "the right to control one's own consciousness
is the quintessence of freedom," reads part of a manifesto of the Journal
of Cognitive Liberties. The journal is one of many projects of the
four-year-old Center for Cognitive Liberty & Ethics, a California-based,
non-profit group that promotes intellectual freedom.

POT LAWS OUTDATED

Canada enacted legislation in 1923 to protect against a new, dangerous and
evil drug which was thought to have the power to destroy the fabric of our
society. Draconian sentencing laws were imposed that would imprison a
marijuana grower or distributor for much, if not all, of his life.

These laws were kept intact until 1998, when the federal cabinet decided
not all of the marijuana plant was dangerous and allowed the cultivation
and distribution of what is now called hemp, without the threat of a life
sentence. Two years later, our courts determined marijuana had great
therapeutic value and forced our government to legalize its medical use.
Justice Minister Martin Cauchon has now determined that recreational use is
not dangerous or evil, and deserves the same penalty as a minor traffic
infraction.

Cannabis now is deemed economically sound for industrial applications,
medically beneficial and recreationally safe, yet pot production and
distribution still carry the severe penalties enacted when cannabis was
thought to be a threat to our entire society.

This will be the year the laws governing cannabis crumbles and falls here in Canada. It has started already in Windsor where Judge Phillips ruled that the law did not exist as the government failed to enact the proper legislation as directed by the Ontario Supreme Court Of Appeal in 2000. Then a few days later Judge Ledderman declared the Medical Marijuana Access Regulations a disgrace and told the government they had 6 months to fix the law or loose it. They should have lost it that day as they already had 2 1/2 years and people are dying everyday with out access to the medicine that helps them the most.

HE WANTS A 'CRACK' AT CANNABIS CAFE

SASKATOON -- A cannabis cafe would serve a variety of marijuana-laced
foods, drinks, pills and smokes in a "bakery-style" setting, said the man
hoping to open such a joint in Saskatoon.

"There would be tables to sit at and a bakery counter with glass windows.
Inside would be baked goods like marijuana cookies, brownies, cakes and
other foods," said city resident Ken Sailor, who wrote to Mayor Jim Maddin
asking for first crack at a licence if the federal government relaxes the
current laws prohibiting cannabis use.

"I would love to run the cannabis cafe. I would be proud to do it."

There would be a menu of available items and a listing of the grades and
strengths of the marijuana contained therein.

The menu would also list the effects of the weed and where it was grown.
Sailor compared the information to that given for a bottle of wine --
flavour, finish, fragrance -- but with different attributes.

"We would say what the strain of marijuana would be expected to do. For
example, there are some that provide the head high without the paranoia,"
Sailor explained.

"There are about 4,000 active strains being grown now."

He has visited similar cafes in The Netherlands and wants to style his
after the Dutch model.

Aside from giving people a safe, friendly place to light up their doobies,
the cafe would boost the local economy, Sailor said.

JUDGE NOT THAT YE BE NOT, CHUCK

In 1968 Charles Breyer, then a 26-year-old assistant district attorney in
San Francisco, wrote in a Harvard College alumni publication, "I am
fearlessly prosecuting flower children and other insidious threats to our
way of life."  As if his self-deprecating irony could mitigate the cruelty
of his actions, as if he were just following orders as a young DA  Today
Breyer, 61, is a bow-tie-wearing U.S. District Judge, and he's still in the
business of sending flower children to prison, and he still employs ironic
smiles, gestures, and intonations to imply that he's just following orders,
i.e., federal law, although now he's in a position to interpret the law and
breathe humanity and rationality into it, as we, the people of California,
tried to when we passed the medical marijuana initiative.

Last week Judge Breyer rejected motions to dismiss federal marijuana
cultivation charges against Ed Rosenthal, 58, who was providing cannabis
clones (starter plants of known potency)  for sale to Bay Area patients and
caregivers entitled to grow their own under state law (Prop 215). Rosenthal
is the author and publisher of numerous books on marijuana cultivation and
related topics.

Ed Rosenthal's Federal Trial Begins
Feds Falter on Pot Plant Count

Tuesday, January 21 -- In the midst of a minor media blitz, the cultivation
trial of marijuana activist and noted author Ed Rosenthal got underway in
San Francisco federal court today. Assistant U.S. Attorney George Beven
outlined the case against the man known as the foremost expert on marijuana
growing, without actually discussing what Mr. Rosenthal was doing --
providing small starter clones of high-potency female plants to local
marijuana dispensaries for distribution to qualified patients. The result
was a disjointed opening argument. After a preliminary discussion with judge
about whether the purpose of Mr. Rosenthal's activities could be
mentioned -- it couldn't -- the defense elected to reserve its opening
argument for after the prosecution completed presenting its case.

First on the stand was the ailing James Halloran, 61, one of Mr. Rosenthal's
indicted co-conspirators and a former racquetball partner, who testified
about the marijuana-growing activities he began immediately after California
passed the Compassionate Use Act, otherwise known as Prop 215, in 1996.
According to Mr. Halloran, he entered into a partnership with Mr. Rosenthal
in late 1997 or early 1998 to produce marijuana for the local medical clubs,
before going their separate growing ways about a year later, though he
continued to buy small clones and cuttings from Mr. Rosenthal until the time
of their arrest.

Mr. Halloran also told the court that he was testifying in exchange for a
more lenient sentence in his guilty plea to cultivation and money-laundering
charges, charges he told the jury would otherwise have resulted in a 50-year
mandatory minimum with the possibility of a triple life sentence upon
conviction. While this appears to be an overstatement designed to cast his
decision to rat out a friend and former partner in a more favorable light,
it nonetheless introduced to the jury the seriousness of the consequences
facing Mr. Rosenthal, should they choose to convict.

Defense attorney Robert Eye also elicited testimony from Mr. Halloran
concerning an extraordinary provision of his plea agreement with the
government, allowing him to seek dismissal of the conviction at such time as
the federal law on marijuana is either determined to be unconstitutional or
repealed by Congress.

Next on the stand was an electrician who detailed work he'd done at Mr.
Rosenthal's direction to ensure safety and bring the marijuana cultivation
facility into compliance with city of Oakland building codes, at a cost of
roughly $7,500. Under questioning from the defense, he described the
inspection of the facility by the Oakland Fire Department, emphasizing the
complete lack of interest on the part of officials in the small marijuana
plants that filled the building.

The last witness of the day was DEA Special Agent Daniel Tuey, who had
supervised the February 2002 raid on the cultivation facility. As part of
his testimony, the prosecution played a videotape the agent made and
narrated during the raid, showing several small rooms containing "mother"
plants, young clones and fresh cuttings, as well as various items tacked to
the walls, including a bumpersticker that read "Thank you for pot smoking"
and a newspaper article that appeared to be about the 6th Street Harm
Reduction Center providing medical marijuana for the most seriously ill
patients. The prosecution also introduced into evidence one grow light and
ballast, one large corroded fan, and a few medium-sized bags of dead
marijuana cuttings. The rest of the evidence seized, the agent conceded
under defense questioning, had been destroyed.

The defense had, in fact, only begun its cross-examination of Agent Tuey
when the court day drew to a close, but defense attorney Robert Eye
nonetheless extracted testimony highlighting the fact that no local law
enforcement had either participated in the raid itself or delivered any
information to the DEA about Mr. Rosenthal's operation. But perhaps the best
moment came as Mr. Eye questioned the agent about the Oakland Fire
Department's building-inspection report, which the DEA had seized in the
raid. With the report projected on a screen for the court to see, Mr. Eye
asked Agent Tuey about a three-word note scrawled across the top of the
form, apparently written by the inspecting Oakland Fire Department officer.
"Can you tell us what that note says?" Mr. Eye asked. "Doesn't it say 'Don't
get caught'?"

After the jury had been dismissed for the day, presiding judge Charles
Breyer vented his displeasure with the defense's line of questioning
regarding the attitude of local officials, as well as the time spent by both
prosecution and defense counsels on the matter of how many of the plants
seized were either rooted or not. He asked the attorneys to come to an
agreement about a range of numbers -- more than x but less than y -- rather
than take up too much time arguing over a precise count. Yet the number of
viable plants is germane to the specific charge of cultivating more than 100
marijuana plants. The defense believes the prosecution will be unable to
produce any such number of plants.

Then came what may prove to be the day's most momentous moment, in which
Judge Breyer quashed the defense subpoena of one of the DEA agents who had
participated in the raid. Mike Heald, the former supervising agent from
Sonoma County was being called to testify, outside the presence of the jury,
about comments he'd made to a colleague of Mr. Rosenthal's regarding the
DEA's policy on prosecutions in California. The colleague, Mary Pat Jacobs,
who runs the Sonoma Alliance for Medical Marijuana, claimed in a declaration
provided to the court that Agent Heald had told her that it was policy to
follow the lead of local authorities in determining whether or not to
prosecute those cultivating medical marijuana under Prop 215 guidelines. Ms.
Jacobs had relayed that conversation to Mr. Rosenthal, who had relied upon
it, in addition to the numerous assurances of local officials, in concluding
that his cultivation of marijuana plants on behalf of medical patients would
be immune from federal prosecution.

The quashing of the subpoena of Agent Heald is of particular significance to
the defense argument that the prosecution of Mr. Rosenthal is a case of
"entrapment by estoppel" in which officials tell an individual that their
conduct is legal and then try to prosecute them for it. In rejecting this
argument, Judge Breyer made much of the fact that, while Mr. Rosenthal could
reasonably have believed he was immune, the defense had not produced a key
element in that defense: any federal government official or agent who's said
as much. Now the federal agent who might have testified to exactly that will
not be permitted to appear.

Trial continues at 8:30 a.m., Wednesday, January 22, in U.S. District Court,
with trial commencing on Tuesday, January 21, 2003.

BOMBING ERROR IN AFGHANISTAN PUTS A SPOTLIGHT ON PILOTS' PILLS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18 - A military hearing into the deaths of four Canadians
in an airstrike by two American pilots in Afghanistan has focused attention
on the military's long-held but little-known practice of using drugs to
keep its weary forces awake and alert - or to help them sleep off the
stress of combat.

Amphetamines and tranquilizers - "go pills" and "no-go pills" - are
considered useful tools for a modern American military that likes to fight
at night, given its technological superiority in finding targets in the
dark, and to an Air Force that must order its pilots to fly longer missions
from fewer overseas bases. Scientists are researching ever more potent
pills, including some that may keep combat forces alert for 40 hours or
more, because the military says that fatigue can be deadly.

"The 'go pill' is a tool of last resort," said Maj. Gen. Dan Leaf, the Air
Force director of operational capability requirements.

Smugglers slip drug-soaked clothes through ports

Federal authorities in New Jersey say a stealthy new technique for smuggling drugs into the country is on the rise and is flooding the metropolitan area with a half-billion dollars worth of high-quality heroin each year.
According to investigators, increasingly large quantities of drugs have been slipping past inspectors, concealed in seemingly ordinary clothing -- only these clothes have been specially prepared and impregnated with liquid heroin that can be extracted once the clothes arrive in the United States

The great survivor

   Conservative attempts to engineer the overthrow of
   President Chavez have radicalised his supporters

Richard Gott
Friday January 17, 2003
The Guardian
http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,3604,876362,00.html


The extraordinary and unprecedented events in Venezuela
in recent weeks that have sent the world oil price
soaring (though controlled this week by an Opec decision
to permit a small increase in production) appear to be
concluding with President Hugo Chavez ever more firmly
in the saddle. When the conservative opposition to his
radical government embarked on a nationwide and open-
ended strike at the beginning of December, accompanied
by the almost daily mobilisation of its supporters in
the streets of Caracas and other major towns, the
purpose was to bring about the president's downfall,
through resignation or military coup d'etat. Yet
although this strategy has done immense damage to the
economy, almost bringing the all-important oil industry
to a halt, Chavez has never shown the slightest sign of
giving in.

Since the new year, he has been fighting back with
vigour, leaving a divided and leaderless opposition -
who never expected their strike to last beyond Christmas
- with an uncertain future. Chavez is a popular and
democratically elected president, and he is firmly
backed by the armed forces. A former army officer
himself, he has an intimate knowledge of the
institution, and he is well aware that the opposition's
attempt to cripple the nationalised oil industry - the
icon of the country's nationalists - has not been
popular with the soldiers.

He has now been given carte blanche to crush the strike,
and has stepped up his rhetoric accordingly. The period
of dialogue and conciliation, embarked on after an
unsuccessful coup attempt last April, is over. More than
a thousand strikers in the oil industry have been sacked
(mostly those in the managerial class); the army has
been brought in to guard installations, ports and
pipelines; the company itself has been reorganised and
split into two regional entities; and the street
demonstrations - for and against - are now being tightly
controlled by the national guard.

Last weekend, a newly confident Chavez announced that he
would send in the troops to stop the hoarding of food,
and to keep schools and banks open. He has threatened to
revoke the licences of four private television channels
that have been campaigning for his overthrow. An upbeat
oil minister claims that oil production should be nearly
back to normal within a month.

This change of mood in Venezuela is a reflection of a
change that is sweeping Latin America, coupled with an
atmosphere of uncertainty in Washington, whose chief
strategists have preoccupations elsewhere. The election
of leftwing presidents in Brazil and Ecuador provides a
beacon of hope for Chavez, if not necessarily a
lifeline. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was inaugurated in
Brasilia on New Year's Day, and Lucio Rodriguez (another
progressive former colonel) took office this week. The
gathering of Latin American presidents in Ecuador for
this ceremony has seen the formation of a group of
"friends of Venezuela", designed, through the good
offices of the Organisation of American States, to find
a peaceful solution to the Venezuelan crisis.

Meanwhile, the trumpet in Washington sounds with an
unsure tone. The departure of Otto Reich, who failed to
secure the support of Congress for his appointment as
the government's chief Latin American operative, was a
blow to the neo-conservatives in government, as is the
resignation of Mexico's pro-American foreign minister
Jorge Castaneda. Democrats in Congress are also making
themselves heard - a group of them came out this month
with a message of support for Chavez.

Chavez, to the dismay of the opposition, is now embarked
upon a radicalisation of what he has always perceived as
"a revolution". The country's poor majority is mobilised
behind him in a way that was unimaginable a year ago.
When schools joined the strike last week, parents and
pupils in the poorer shanty towns organised to keep them
open. Banks, newspapers and television channels now live
under threat of expropriation.

The opposition, caught on the back foot, is still a
formidable force. It consists of a bizarre assortment of
discredited politicians and trade unionists from the
ancien regime, oil executives from the nationalised oil
company, important business interests, media magnates
and large swaths of a middle class with its feet in
Venezuela and its head in the suburban culture of the
US.

Much of this middle class has been led by the media and
opinion polls, and by the large size of its protest
demonstrations, into believing that it forms the
majority of the country, and is justified in demanding
the president's resignation. Yet demonstrations are a
notoriously inadequate guide to voting intentions in
Latin America, and opinion polls in third world
countries rarely reflect the views of the shanty towns.

By conjuring up the country's forgotten underclass, the
poor and the hitherto politically invisible, Chavez has
unleashed forces that will be difficult for him, or an
alternative government, to put back into the bottle.

Liberator: Hugo Chavez and the Transformation of

US CONSIDERS NEW BIOWEAPON ATTACK

Hostile intentions toward the people of another country. Deployment of
chemical weapons and biological agents. Pursuit of a scorched earth policy.
Sound like Saddam's Iraq? Think again. This neatly summarises US President
George Bush's administration's depredations in Colombia, all under the shady
banner of the "war on drugs".

As Bush offers pious homilies on Iraq's possible hoarding of so-called
weapons of mass destruction, his administration and its backers are poised
to unleash a new wave of toxins in the mountains of Colombia, including a
dangerous brew of biological weapons its proponents rather quaintly call
"mycoherbicides"; opponents have dubbed them Agent Green.

Hi, I'm responding to the questions on the list about crack psychosis and the use of anti-psychotic drugs, specif. Risperidone (Risperdal). I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner so can give you some facts, which you can also get yourself in any good drug book such as a PDR or any drug book written for nurses (almost every major health publisher has one). First of all, crack psychosis (like amphetamine psychosis) SHOULD be a temporary phenomenon. Kind of like a delirium which is an altered state of consciousness (usu. w/disorientation, maybe physical stuff like incontinence and ataxia, and "psychotic" symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, agitation, etc.) Anything that is a delirium has a cause which needs to be identified (in this case, use of crack), and when discontinued or rectified, the delirium should (in varying amounts of time depending on the cause) clear. For ex., many drugs (even cardiovascular and gastrointestinal drugs) can cause delirium, toxic levels of drugs (even "common" drugs for "medical" conditions) can do so also (particularly in vulnerable people such as the elderly, those w/impaired renal/hepatic function, dehydration, etc), fever can cause delirium as can nutritional imbalances, dehydration, and even infection such as UTIs and URIs. So, if the person's psychosis is caused by crack use, it should clear when the crack gets out of their body. The experience can really shake people up though where they may need restorative care afterwards, and espec. if their chronic use and/or lifestyle has caused their physical health to be run down anyway. Like, they may need hydration, GOOD nutrition including supplements, rest, calming mental activities, etc.  Drugslike Risperidone are primarily used for people who have more organic disease-caused reasons for psychosis, such as people w/schizophrenia, people w/bipolar disorder who get manic alot, and people w/dementias who have psychotic symptoms. A dementia can look alot like delirium except it comes on slowly, is very global (affects all aspects of cognition, emotion, behavior), and won't clear by identifying the cause and fixing it. Cause dementia's by definition are organic processes that generally don't get better cause actual permanent brain changes are occurring (such as in Alzheimers, people w/strokes, Parkinsons, end-stage syphilis, and other  causes of dementia). Risperidone is a powerful medication which has some potentially very dangerous side effects such a neuroleptic malignancy syndrome which can be fatal, abnormal involuntary movement disorders, blood dyscrasias, cardiac arrythmias, and many more. It's not something that should be prescribed without much careful attention to diagnosis  and of course frequent follow-up. If it were being used for crack psychosis I would assume it would be used for a short time, just until the crack really exited the person's body and there were other restorative treatments being given (as above). It would be quite unusual for someone to have permanent psychosis from using crack. Normal doses of Risperidone are 1 mg. bid to a max of about 4-6 mg. bid (twice a day). It is supplied in an oral form which is 1mg/1cc (1 mg.of medicine in every 1 cc (or ml--same thing)of the fluid).  welll, i hope this is helpful. If there is anything else i can help w/, especially in the realm of medical/psychiatric issues, please let me know. Many blessings to you and your work, Eliana Quinet, RN,MS,CS

I am not aware of any physical dangers resulting from the combination of
antipsychotics with ibogaine. However, the patient would need to be off
the risperidol for some time prior to the administration of ibogaine for
it to be effective. Antipsychotics will indeed block at least some of
ibogaine's actions.

There is a way to treat patients who take anti psychotic drugs in
combination with other drugs ,

I have done it many times without any problem ,

this is not a treatment someone can do on his own , and it takes two weeks
treatment with a special care and multi dosages in small amounts,

  I didn't want to let this one go without comment! I don't know what
alkaloids are in T. elliptica, but you're right that it should be legal to
grow in the United States, just as Star Jasmine and Morning Glories are. I
don't know if anyone has been charged with iboga posession, but a good

never carried out - it was added in parentheses after ibogaine in schedule
I as an error. I understand it is much more difficult to schedule a

  Does the schedule really say that? I thought it just listed the species.
Has anyone ever been charged with L. diffusa possession?

Yes. It is the entire genus.

Yes.  Some folks in Texas.  They thought they had L.williamsii but it turned out to be diffusa (they do look somewhat alike).  Also some native American church folks who were growing L. williamsii, and had jumped thought all the hoops so it was legal for them, had all the plants taken from them.  They are still fighting it.  The plants have long since died.

Hi all,

It seems that T. Iboga is not persecuted in New Zealand; as it is not
listed in the 1961, 1971 or 1988 UN Treaty or the NZ 1975 Misuse of Drugs
Act.

Does anyone have a source for seeds, or any special considerations for
cultivation?

It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it.

Hi Sam,
you're probably right that it is not persecuted as a domestic product. This is the same situation in australia. The problem is that it is listed in many countries (incl australia and presumably NZ due to cross-tasman harmonisation) as an illegal drug in the customs schedules - a penalty much higher than state drug matters.
Check you up to date customs schedules before embarking on importation. A listing of the active constituent also includes any preparation or material that contains it - including the seeds (I found out the hard way).

Subject: [IBOGAINE] some questions about using ibogaine


Question:

1. when taking ibogaine for interruption, how do you
know you've taken enough? i tried out about 4-5gm
recently, and the trip was a bit intimidating. Now I
feel ready to go all the way and hopefully interrupt
my habit. But is there any subjective indication -
like vomiting, or when you can no longer stand, &c?

2. if one had sufficient supply, could one break a
heroin or coke habit by taking relatively small
amounts regularly? As in getting high in ibo instead
of crack or smack?

3. if one needs a booster, how soon after the main
journey do you do it? I supposed that when you start
chasing dragons again, but I'd like a better informed
opinion?

4. If I were to start taking ibo regularly, in doses
just enough to get a buzz, is it addictive?

Please subscribe to new MMM email list. Public archive still open.

The public MMM email list at Yahoo Groups now requires people to subscribe
in order to post messages to the list and the public archive. For a few
weeks I set it up so that non-members could also send in email messages to
the list. That was to help people send in MMM rally reports. It worked.
The archive also got some spam too. That was deleted. But people should
keep sending in MMM-related stuff. Just subscribe first.

The MMM message archive itself is still public and accessible to anybody:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cannabisaction
