ASIATICO MALFATTORE
The story in brief: Set in 2019, it is centred around a group of teenagers roaming the streets of Neo-Tokyo, once destroyed by psychic powers misused by the military. Rebels fight to prevent the shadowy government from unleashing those powers again. The key lies in the mind of a boy, Akira, who lies in a government laboratory. Meanwhile, the central character, Kaneda, gets romantically involved with one of the prettier rebels and, inadvertantly, with their struggle. Another member of his bike gang, Tetsuo, is injured in a crash and whisked away by the security forces. The plot is complex and gets quite bizarre at the end but the movie is compelling all the way.

Dionysus is the god of the vine. He invented wine and spread the art of tending grapes. He has a dual nature. On the one hand bringing joy and divine ecstasy. On the other brutal, unthinking, rage. Thus reflecting both sides of wines nature. If he chooses Dionysus can drive a man mad.
See also magic mushrooms and the [ law ]. The international UN treaty on psychotropic substances (that virtually all countries have signed) declares the substances psilocyn and psilocybin illegal. Preparations and materials containing these substances are illegal as well. A fresh magic mushroom growing in the wild is under this definition not illegal. However when you are going to dry them, you are processing them and the dry magic mushrooms become a psilocybin containing preparation.
NOTE (1) So, on storage of Magic mushrooms we have to note that it may be illegal in your country to process psilocbyn mushrooms. Please take note of this. We do not advocate to break any law in any country so please check your legislation.
NOTE (2) Many countries including the United States have a much wider definition, and / or explicitly declare the possesion of certain magic mushrooms species illegal.
Drying mushrooms can be done in several ways.
(1) Natural drying; if the mushrooms are within a climate that dehydrates the mushroom by natural means(natural dry climate or surroundings), this would dry the mushrooms without prosessing. So this might be a legal way to get dry mushrooms depending on your legislation (see also below). Note! Putting magic mushrooms in a hot (sub)tropical sun may harm the potency! See below. (2) Manual drying; smal amounts may be placed on a few tissues on a warm but not to hot place. For larger amounts see to an warm airflow along the mushrooms. Do not use heat warmer than 40 degrees celcius.
Roughly speaking there are 3 ways to grow magic mushrooms: easy, difficult and intermediate. For each apprach we researched and recommend a solution from different suppliers.
EASY! You may grow magic mushrooms the easy way with an 'out-of-the-box-and-grow' solution. Simply unpack the box with substrate and mycelium. Make sure the climate is right and within a few weeks you may eat your home-grown magic mushrooms. NOT TO THE USA!!!
DIFFICULT! When you invest some time in study (see the references at the right side) you can do it all by your self. The only thing you have to purchase are the magic mushroom spores. For first time magic mushroom growers there are some difficult tasks involved: innoculation and incubation of the spores, preparing the required substrates, transferring the incubated spores to the final substrate and finally, make them fruit.
INTERMEDIATE! You purchase the magic mushroom spores and some ready-made substrate. You yourself have to incubate the substrate with the spores.
Like everything else in life the easy way is the most expensive and the hard way will save you money. We researched some solutions and below you'll find the results: The suppliers for magic mushroom growing solutions in each category.
Probably 'the sensing of God' experience is caused by the following effects: (1) a strong awareness of living now and here (no past, no future, no there, just here and now) (2) a strong feeling of 'uncensored perception' (seeing the real world) (3) the shift from a state of 'survival-conciousness' (geared to fullfilling ones needs, getting things done, avoiding dangers) to a 'let-go-conciousness' (there's nothing to do besides being part of the universe). However, if a person isn't able to let go and 'float on the flow' MMs may cause severe fear and paranoia and heaven can turn into hell. Problems can be avoided by (a) taking real (illegal) psilocybin mushrooms, and no (legal) amanita muscaria (really dangerous); (b) starting with low dose (1 gram dry)
Man And Mushrooms
Further evidence in support of the idea that the relationship between Man and hallucinogens - in this case mushrooms - is indeed an ancient one comes from the ancient populations of the Sahara desert who inhabited this vast area when it was still covered with an extensive layer of vegetation (Samorini, 1989). The archeological findings consist in prehistoric paintings which the author personally had the opportunity to observe during two visits to Tassilli in Algeria. This could be the most ancient ethno-mycological finding up to the present day, which goes back to the so-called Round Heads Period (i.e. 9,000 - 7,000 years ago). The center of this style is Tassili, but examples are also to be found at Tadrart Acacus {Libya), Ennedi (Chad) and, to a lesser extent, at Jebel Uweinat (Egypt) (Muzzolini, 1986:173-175). Images of enormous mythological beings of human or animal form, side by side with a host of small horned and feathered beings in dancing stance cover the rock shelters of which there are very many on the high plateau of the Sahara which in some areas are so interconnected as to form true citadels with streets, squares and terraces. One of the most important scenes is to be found in the Tin-Tazarift rock art site, at Tassili, in which we find a series of masked figures in line and hieratically dressed or dressed as dancers surrounded by long and lively festoons of geometrical designs of different kinds. Each dancer holds a mushroom-like object in the right hand and, even more surprising, two parallel lines come out of this object to reach the central part of the head of the dancer, the area of the roots of the two horns. This double line could signify an indirect association or non-material fluid passing from the object held in the right hand and the mind. This interpretation would coincide with the mushroom interpretation if we bear in mind the universal mental value induced by hallucinogenic mushrooms and vegetals, which is often of a mystical and spiritual nature (Dobkin de Rios, 1984:194). It would seem that these lines - in themselves an ideogram which represents something non-material in ancient art - represent the effect that the mushroom has on the human mind.
Mushrooms thru the ages
The following text is taken from Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms
Humanity's use of mushrooms extends back to Paleolithic times. Few peope-even anthropologists-comprehend how influential mushrooms have been in affecting the course of human evolution. Mushrooms have played pivotal roles in ancient Greece, India and Mesoamerica. Try to their beguiling nature, fungi have always elicited deep emotional responses: from adulation by those who understand them to outright fear by those who do not. Historical record reveals that mushrooms have been used for less than benign purposes. Claudius II and Pope Clement VII were both killed by enemies who poisoned them with deadly Amanitas. Buddha died, according to legend, from a mushroom that grew underground. Buddha was given the mushroom by a peasant who believed it to be a delicacy. In ancient verse, that mushroom was linked to the phrase pig's foot but has never been identified. (Although truffles grow underground and pigs are used to find them, no deadly poisonous species are known.) In the winter of 1991, hikers in the Italian Alps came across the well preserved remains of a man who died over 5,300 years ago, approximately 200 years later than the Tassili cave artist. Dubbed the Iceman by the news media, he was well equipped with a knapsack, flint ax, a string of dried Birch Polypores (Piptoporus betulinus) and another yet unidentified mushroom. The polypores can be used as tinder for starting fires and as medicine for treating wounds. Further, a rich tea with immuno-enhancing properties can be prepared by boiling these mushrooms. Equipped for traversing the wilderness, this intrepid adventurer had discovered the value of the noble polypores. Even today, this knowledge can be life-saving for anyone astray in the wilderness. Fear of mushroom poisoning pervades every culture, sometimes reaching phobic extremes. The term mycophobic describes those individuals and cultures where fungi are looked upon with fear and loathing. Mycophobic cultures are epitomized by the English and Irish. In contrast, mycophilic societies can be found throughout Asia and eastern Europe, especially amongst Polish, Russian and Italian peoples. These societies have enjoyed a long history of mushroom use, with as many as a hundred common names to describe the mushroom varieties they loved. The use of mushrooms by diverse cultures was intensively studied by an investment banker named R. Gordon Wasson. The Spanish persecutors, under the aegis of the Catholic Church, made every effort to totally stamp out Peyote use, subjecting the Indians to floggings, beatings, cruel tortures and even death if they persisted. One account states that as a continuation of three days of torture, a disobedient Indian had his eyes gouged out. The self-righteous Spanish then cut a crucifix into the flesh of his chest, and turned loose starving dogs to dine on his innards. They then went to church because they were devout christians. One of Wasson's most provocative findings can be found in Soma: Divine Mushroom of Immortality (1976) where he postulated that the mysterious SOMA in the Vedic literature, a red fruit leading to spontaneous enlightenment for those who ingested it, was actually a mushroom.
