I'm sure a few of you must be familiar with Leary's eight circuit model of the mind (
http://deoxy.org/8circuit.htm).
I recently heard about it and how he theorizes there is a specific
drug, or group of drugs which turn on each of the circuits.
My question has to do with some of the entheogens which are only more
recently becoming popular, such as salvia, sinicuichi, zacatachichi,
amanitas etc. Which circuits would you all think each of these
entheogens turn on? A related question has to do with some of the newer
research chemicals which have effects similar to other drugs. If 2C-B
is (roughly) similar to both an ecstasy and an LSD trip, does it
activate both of those circuits, or neither? Could a chemical be found
that could activate all of the circuits at once, and if so, what would
the consequences be?
Quite a lot of questions to ask all at once, but hopefully it will prove to be an interesting thread
