February 2005
Heroin addiction is blamed on human weakness and social problems and addicts are labeled as criminals. But it is now known that some humans suffer from a lack of natural opiates in the brain, which causes them to seek the illegal remedy of heroin. They are not really criminals; they just need medical supplements.
Unfortunately, our lack of awareness sees heroin only as a moral issue, so the long-term solution to addiction, like a DMT (dimethyltryptomine), or a morphine supplement taken daily, is not allowed in our society. I don't mean methadone that is sometimes prescribed, as a heroin substitute after a person is addicted, but a supplement that is given those that have an on-going opiate deficiency in their system, before they become addicted.
It makes me sad because almost all our psychological pain is treatable and yet many of the treatments are forbidden to us.
It is known that that one drink of the African, tribal medicine ibogaine (see below), cures heroin addiction, as does the Brazilian ayahuasca (see below), except with ayahuasca you need about three drinks of about 100mLs over a period of a week or so. Why these remedies work is because both are high in DMT, which is stored in the pineal and dominates your moods. Westerners are massively depleted of DMT through fat-rich diets and stressful lifestyles, which is why depression is endemic in our society.
Replacing lost DMT in your brain cures depression and it also grants you a heightened perception that has been sadly lost to many over the years. It automatically connects you to life and other humans. Empathy returns and the ego's sense of separation and fear fall away because it is unnatural.
Once you replace the missing DMT in your brain a natural joy returns to your life and it remains for a long time, many years usually. It's the lack of DMT in the pineal that causes fear, anger, separation and hatred. All the world's ills can be placed at the doorstep of the ego-mind and that ego-mind in the western world is made into a god, but in fact, it has become a demon through DMT starvation-sad but true.
But times are changing and there is now more official research into these ancient, tribal remedies, which in the end will help humanity enormously.

i'm sorry to say this article sounds a little hokey to me owen. it would be nice to see some medical research backing up those tall claims

Oops here's the end of the article, and he gives some links that might have some science-type talk included.
There are ibogaine parishioners in England that operate undercover, but I don't know any personally and it's best to stay legal, so I can't make a recommendation. But I have heard that there are legal ibogaine clinics in Holland and Mexico. (See: MAPS link below).
For ayahuasca, I can suggest Ralph Miller at Heart of the Initiate.com He is an American travel agent who runs safe, elegant, ayahuasca holiday tours to Brazil. Ralph is a good person and he is very knowledgeable in the ayahuasca process, people speak very highly of his Brazilian aya' tours. He and his support crew are top-notch professionals. info@heartoftheinitiate.com
More info on ibogaine go to the www.maps.org (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) website. They are a well-respected research organization.
Or, for general information on the subject visit www.erowid.org/," target="_blank">http://www.erowid.org/, a large, comprehensive ethno-botany site.
Thanks SW.

Medical research to back up this type of treatment would be nice to see but you will never see it. The pharmaceutical industry has no interest in doing (or at least publishing) research on natural cures for our ailments. They may research it then perhaps look to develop a synthetic drug that will have the same effect (but with far more side effects) that they can patent and make money from. They FDA states only DRUGS can cure illness. If it's not a drug and someone is making claims purporting it's effectiveness in curing illness the FDA and FTC will storm troop their establishment with guns a blazing. The drug industry is one of the most powerful industries in the world. Two thirds of all advertising on televison is for drugs. Doctors are taught to treat the symptom not to look at the root cause of the disease. The body can heal itself if it's made truly healthy. Unless of course there has been some physical trauma such as a car accident. Then please, by all means perform surgery and medicate.

Official science is just a fascist club where the best thing that can happen to one who disagrees is they find their careers in limbo. I mentioned before I teach a few hours to a university professor of economics just ouside Barcelona. Day before yesterday he explained to me, after he saw my interest had been piqued by he taught a class called wait for it Political Correctness, the concept of orthodox thinking, and drew a circle on a piece of paper, where during his classes he is expected to stay. Unorthodox thoughts, he explained to me by drawing a smaller black circle outside the first one, are not advantageous to career prospects. He said there are a couple of professors in his faculty like that, but he doesn't fancy their chances. George Orwell was no prophet, he just took a look around.

this still sounds very hokey and "miracle cure"esque. i mean, if there were actually a simple "cure" for addiction and depression, don't you think it would become available? evil pharmaceutical industry or not?

Wormwood is addicted to the iron in cancer cells and unlike chemo or radiation it leaves healthy cells alone while destroying malignant ones. We have a simple, cheap and nonpatentable cure for cancer yet most of the planet have no idea about it.

Economics isn't a science. Almost all of them do not use a scientific method of proposing and testing hypotheses. Most social scientists don't. I say this as the son of a political scientist and the husband of an anthropologist (both them are unusually quantitative and scientific for their fields).
So, maybe economics is caught up in supporting the current dogma, but that's because they can't actually test much of what they are studying. The fields become exercises in rhetoric and building and maintaining status (because the weight of what you say is not based on the evidence behind the statement, but rather on your status). |

I've recently read that cancer cannot survive in an alkaline enviroment. Our western diets create an acidic enviroment in our bodies allowing cancer and other diseases to develop. Through proper diet and a simple litmus test we can establish an alkaline enviroment an rid ourselves of disease. Why aren't we told that?
I also just read that schools get $500.00 for every student that's on Ritalin. Can anyone confirm this? Is it per year? With schools as strapped for money as they are I would imagine that makes a pretty good incentive for getting "problem kids" diagnosed as ADHAD.

I suppose if economists used a scientific method they'd have to take into account that we've gifted ourselves with a model in which a country the size of Argentina can go tits-up once in a while.

I agree. I'm also not very much into the "synthetic drugs all bad and natural drugs all good and can cure everything" type of thinking. The fact is that humanity's been using natural cures for a much longer time than the synthetic drugs and that we can only now cure many diseases that we couldn't before.
quote: Originally posted by The King Of Karaoke They may research it then perhaps look to develop a synthetic drug that will have the same effect (but with far more side effects).
I don't know much about this but I think it's not about creating a synthetic drug that has the same effect as a natural cure but more about creating a chemical that is the same as the one found in a natural cure. The molecule is exactly the same, only not mixed with the other natural components. Not 100% sure though.

I'm not really sure what that means.
My point was that using an economist to say that science is screwed up is like using I don't know an actor to say that book-writing field is screwed up. The experiences of an economist (and the things that further their careers) are not similar to a medical researcher. |

I meant that some of those I´ve taught are, in their own language, pretty adept at covering over the fact that population of each country introduced to WB structural readjustments goes bananas pretty shortly after with empty we-live-in-a-utopia-put-your-nose-down-like-rest-of-us rhetoric, but in English, where they´re concentrating more on the nuts and bolts, they sometimes actually tell me how they feel. I meant the quote as a comment on climate in our halls of higher yearning really. One of em had me kidded a while economics was actually a science instead of a language of inequality, so cheers.

Following the death of as many as 60,000 Americans from COX-2 inhibitors (source: British Medical Journal, author Dr. David Graham, FDA drug safety researcher), an FDA advisory panel has now voted to allow the drugs to return to the market with full FDA safety approval. The fact that a single COX-2 drug has reportedly killed more Americans than the entire Vietnam War is apparently not sufficient for the FDA to characterize it as unsafe.
With this decision, a "safety approval" by the FDA has now become meaningless. If the agency can put its stamp of public safety approval on a drug that has killed tens of thousands of Americans and that was removed from the market by its own manufacturer following the revelation of studies showing alarming increases in heart attack risk, then what, pray tell, could possibly be the FDA's definition of a dangerous drug?

Well, speaking as a discordian myself, if something will embolden the pineal gland then it can't be all bad. Maybe not all good either, as Eris likes to fuck with people. In any case, here is something to be really worried about (from Fox news, no less!):
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,132397,00.html
This article alludes to a program that the US govt plans to implement making mental health screening mandatory for school children, and in order to attend school, the "test-positive" children must be medicated. Other options are home schooling, private schooling, or jail for negligence.
That's an industry that is way out of control, and a government that is too corrupt to put it in check.

One reason for my immature posts on this thread is the trouble I have with the idea that heroin addicts "are not really criminals." (The other reason is my immaturity.) The three heroin addicts I have had the misfortune of knowing were criminals in that something (their lack of proper medical supplements?) made them act in criminal ways. Trust me on this: when someone you know and were stupid enough to trust steals your stereo the cause doesn't matter and it does become a moral issue.

I think you're right there, since different people can react differently to the same chemical. But you can achieve a lot with some good chemistry if you know how. |
