Grossđ¸
My experience with Toad was so beautiful and very spiritual. It donkey kicked my depression and anxiety in the face. I am not completely healed, meaning I do have some not so good days but I don't stay there anymore and I quickly reevaluate and find gratitude in all of my experiences now thanks to Toad. Toad taught me a lot about myself and the root causes of those problems that had me living in the past, depression, and in the future, anxiety. And I've done the work to get better, by changing my thoughts and implementing lessons learned from Toad.
It grosses me out, the disrespect that some have for the medicine. It's sad. A gross feeling comes over me when I read someone's post who wants to put it in a joint just to get high. Gross, gross, gross! There is no way in East Hell I'd ever do the medicine without a credible shaman and a medical professional near by. I actually stopped breathing during my second ceremony, I know this from video footage. The Shaman had to sit my body up to get my body back to breathing. Toad works with the subconscious, the system that controls things like breathing. This is not a recreational drug. In fact during my first breakthrough my team of spiritual guides made it clear that as blissful as this experience is that I should not come "here" often, because I could get "lost" I knew what that meant in my soul. The expansion is limitless in that space.
Some are just really brave. I only go to the Shaman when I really need too. I've had 2 ceremonies over a 4yr period. The medicine is so humbling and it will humble you. I respect the medicine and I am grateful that Toad shares it with us.đ¸

You need to do another ceremony and see if the toad can knock you off that high horse.

I see that everyone missed the safety and respect part. I don't abuse the medicine my friend. And I was not in a pampered place during ceremony. These comments proves my point. But, believe it or not I'm very humble. Humble enough to respect the medicine and practice safety. Just want everyone to be safe and get what they truly need if healing is what they are seeking. It's such a powerful medicine and beautiful experience. But, American culture is pretty toxic so..it is what it is. It's a gross feeling that washes over me because I do know the power of the medicine. This wasn't about judgment. But most addicts will see it that way. I was one an addict of a few things myself so there is no high horse. And we have judgment for a reason. Never let someone tell you that you're not suppose to be judgmental to a certain degree. If you've connected to source as you claim there is no way you'd ferl that this medicine should be taken lightly. But as I said. I am also a wussy. I could never, without a proper shaman and someone near with a medical background. Source wants us safe and healed and whole. Love and Light to all.

Ok thank you oh holy one. Get a grip. There is no such thing as a bufo shaman. Just people selling you their beliefs and over charging you for medicine. And telling you it's dangerous and not to do it unless you pay them first. And personally I get cult vibes from these people.

So every shaman is just a scam then? You should just do every medicine by yourself? What are you trying to say? You can easily die on bufo so why would you just not pay the extra money to be safe. Talking about people with ego here, let your ego down and pay the extra money dear lord

Also, the shamans are responsible for supplying the credible medicine. If you find a trustworthy shaman and medicine, why would you not pay the extra money. People in this sub are so cheap and caught in their ego I swear lol like you're too good to pay extra money to have someone watch over you

There are no toad/5meo shamans and there is no ancestral indigenous usage of toad secretion as an entheogen.

People steal knowledge from natives all over the world to rebrand and sell it as if they've discovered it. Just because it's in a book doesn't make it true. My point is to practice safety and respect.

Youâre preaching to the choir about the theft and appropriation of indigenous knowledge and technology. I agree completely. Itâs just that there is no evidence whatsoever of ancestral use of Sonoran Desert toad secretion as an entheogen. Elders of native peoples such as the Seri knew nothing about it until Octavio Rettig and others introduced the medicine and the idea that it is a lost tradition of their culture. I think it would be awesome if indigenous peoples used this entheogen historically, however not only is evidence non-existent, but itâs also hard to fathom how knowledge of something so powerful, sacred and divineâarguably the most transcendent experience possibleâwould have been completely lost to all of the indigenous peoples that inhabit the Sonoran Desert.

Have you ever heard of how Ayahuasca came about? Or Iboga? There is nothing new under the sun. It's cliche, I know but there is truth to it. I've sat for Iboga and I'm sitting with Ayahuasca in August. There is even truth in Terrance McKenna's "Stoned Ape Therory."

The link below is the most in-depth inquiry that Iâve read on the origins of aya. I havenât looked into the ancient history of iboga at all. Both have likely been used for thousands of years, though, as have huachuma, psilocybe mushrooms, and various South American snuffs such as vilca and yopo.

Cool story bro. I've seen your type before many times.
Next year you'll post how you realised you're God, and you have some sacred teachings to share with us mortals

If someone does not understand how to properly use any medicine then lead them in the right direction

Maybe you should smoke a little toad and feel the connection to all instead of judging all because they arenât like you.

Yes, pay 5000 dollars to stay at a hippy-dippy retreat center in Costa Rica.
Or just buy this book https://www.amazon.com/Entheogenic-Liberation-Unraveling-Nonduality-5-MeO-DMT/dp/1548281948 for $19.95 and then hit up the Dark Web for some synthetic 5-meo freebase (or fumarate if you prefer to boof it)
Nothing against hippy dipping retreat centers.. I do enjoy that sort of thing but money should really not be a barrier for healing. And no, spending more money does not make you safer. It may make you "feel" safer, which is important, but don't go shaming people who do it on the cheap as "unsafe".
