Psilocybin mushrooms [a] are a type of entheogenic, psychedelic, hallucinogenic mushroom and a polyphyletic informal group of fungi that contain the prodrug psilocybin.
Humans can grow this fungi?
Psilocybin is metabolized into the psychedelic compound psilocin following ingestion [2].
Rather than referring to one single mushroom species, the term "psilocybin mushroom" refers to a broad group of fungi found across several genera [3].
Other compounds such as baeocystin, norbaeocystin, aeruginascin, and β-carbolines may modulate effects.
The most potent species are members of genus Psilocybe, such as P. azurescens, P. semilanceata, and P. cyanescens, but psilocybin has also been isolated from approximately a dozen other genera, including Panaeolus (including Copelandia), Inocybe, Pluteus, Gymnopilus, and Pholiotina [2]. More
Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom
Buddha's Brain (Rick Hanson)
Author Dr. Rick Hanson, PhD has 4.7 out of 5 stars (with 2,067 reviews) for this book. Change our brain, change our life? This essential classic from the New York Times bestselling author Rick Hanson is celebrating 15 years in print with more than 500,000 copies sold.
Great teachers like the Buddha Gautama, the Christ Jesus, Muslim Mo, Jewish Mo, and Hinduism's Gandhi were all born with brains built essentially like anyone else’s—and then they changed their brains in ways that changed the world.
Neuroscience now reveals how the flow of thoughts actually sculpts the brain. More and more, we are learning that it’s possible to strengthen positive brain states [and traits].
By combining breakthroughs in science with insights from thousands of years of mindfulness practice, readers can also shape their own “Buddha’s Brain” for greater happiness, love, and wisdom.
Buddha’s Brain draws on evidence-based neuroscience to show how to stimulate the brain for more fulfilling relationships, a deeper spiritual life, and a greater sense of inner confidence and self-worth.
Using guided meditations and mindfulness exercises, readers will learn how to activate the brain states of calm, joy, and compassion to replace worry, sorrow, and anger.
Most importantly, readers will foster positive psychological growth that will literally change the way they live their day-to-day lives.
This book provides an essential intersection of psychology, neurology, and contemplative practice. It is filled with practical tools and skills that readers can use every day to tap into the unused potential of the brain and rewire it over time for greater well-being. More
If these beings are real — science is over. Every time someone smokes DMT, that person meets the same thing: "machine elves," DMT entities. What are they? They are hyperdimensional beings who laugh, welcome you, trick you, and teach you. Who are they? And why do they act like they’ve known visitors forever?
🔍 This video rewires how we understand consciousness, intelligence, and the mind. In this rare, mind-bending interview, Dr. Andrew Gallimore — computational neurobiologist and the author of Alien Information Theory — breaks down the DMT entity mystery in full.
This is not fringe speculation. It is a direct challenge to neuroscience, physics, and the very Jungian idea of a "collective unconscious."
Dr. Andrew Gallimore is a computational neurobiologist, chemist, and author of Alien Information Theory. He has spent over 20 years studying how psychedelic (entheogenic) experiences — especially on DMT — interface with the structure of our reality, the unconscious mind, and the possible existence of non-human intelligences.
He is considered one of today’s leading experts on DMT, altered states, and the neuroscience of visionary experience.
This 'l save our kids from capitalist exploitation
The Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) was a bipartisan U.S. government committee formed in 1985 [1] with the stated goal of "increasing parental control over children's access to music deemed to have violent, drug-related, or sexual themes."
The committee's work led to the widespread adoption of the Parental Advisory sticker. The PMRC was known for its prejudicial targeting of heavy metal music, which drew opposition and criticism [2].
On political and religious grounds, the committee was supported by American Protestant televangelists, Reaganites, and the larger Christian evangelical movement, who accused hard rock and heavy metal music of harboring Satanic and occult related themes.
The committee was founded by four women known as the "Washington Wives"—a reference to their husbands' connections with the government power elite in the Washington, D.C. area.
Those female founders of the PMRC are Tipper Gore, wife of Senator and later Vice President Al Gore... More
Death (marana) is death because it is immediately followed by rebirth; there is no space in between, as the Bardo is misunderstood to be, because it will not be another human rebirth next
At the instant of death, in that submoment, what was a human life is lost, the impersonal process of consciousness relinks and rearises according to karma in a new form. It is neither a new existence nor the same as the one before, and this is confusing. Identity clings. But just as it was impersonal before, it is impersonal still, and the process (patisandhi in samsara) rolls on. Samsara is the "continued wandering on" and its detailed process the Buddha made known in the Abhidhamma, how cittas (mind moments) and impuslions (javanas) produce their results (vipaka and phala), and a "being" (which is really always a becoming) is unaware and just carried on...
There is a mind-door, greenish in hue, near the heart. This heart-mind seems to be the physical base of consciousness, not the brain in the cranium. When meditating, attention can be adverted to the area around the heart. There there is a mirror reflecting experience, consciousness, awareness. If the "mind" were in the brain or the head, it seems attention would be placed there to find it. But it is very much down closer to what in the West we refer to as the seat of our emotions. The Buddha did not specify a physical base for vijñāna (consciousness) or manas (in Early Buddhism). However, he seems to have been well aware of the practical application of locating this base for the sake of realizing the ultimate nature of mind-and-matter (nama-rupa), ultimate mind (a stream of cittas) and ultimate materiality (a stream of kalapas). But this is for advanced practitioners of Buddhist meditation rather than philosophers and speculators. For those, perhaps Zen no-mind would be better or the compelling mind-only (Yogachara) view.

The divine eye in Buddhism, the dibba cakkhu, is the third eye around the forehead, transcendent vision, the ability to "see" beyond the sight of our human eyes, perhaps rooted deep in the brain where another eye (replete with rods and cones) resides in the complete dark. What subtle waves, what broad spectrum photons, what light source is it responding to?

We have been trying to tell everyone. Emptiness (sunyata) means "things are impersonal." It is a mindboggling concept, not to be fathomed by mere reasoning. The Buddha was not Descartes sitting around thinking. He sat cleaning his mind through samadhi then systematically investigated the four scaffolds or foundations of what to be mindful of: those four things assumed to be self: form, feeling, perception, consciousness. He mindfully investigated this body, feelings, mind, and mind-objects.

Listen to H.H. The 14th Dalai Lama and some of the leading neuroscientists of 2016 as they talk about and consider what is "subtle mind" and what it is that reincarnates.
"New theories in neuroscience suggest consciousness is an intrinsic property of everything, just like gravity. That development opens a world of opportunity for collaboration between Buddhists and neuroscientists." - Sam Littlefair, associate digital editor of Lion's Roar, April 1, 2016
"The Buddha taught that sentience [feeling, consciousness, sensitivity] is everywhere at varying levels and that humans should have compassion for all sentient beings." - H.H. The Dalai Lama
"By resting his or her mind and contemplating it, a meditator can develop an understanding of the nature of mind and how it relates to everything else." - Traleg Rinpoche

“It has become almost impossible to say, ‘I don’t care about future generations,’ ‘I don’t care about poverty in the midst of plenty’ and ‘I don’t care if there are 200 million climate refugees in 2030. Altruism should not be relegated to the realm of noble Utopian thinking maintained by a few big-hearted, naïve people. On the contrary, it is a determining factor of the quality of our existence, now and to come. We must have the insight to recognize this and the audacity to proclaim it. The altruism revolution is on its way. Let us all be part of it.”

“When a rainbow appears vividly in the sky, you can see its beautiful colors, yet you could not wear as clothing or put it on as an ornament.
