Serve in allerta – Capisci o no?

Recent therapeutic trials of “classical” psychedelic drugs, such as psilocybin (from magic mushrooms) or LSD, have reported benefits to wellbeing, depression and anxiety. These effects seem to be linked to a sense of “ego dissolution” — a dissolving of the subjective boundaries between the self and the wider world. However, the neurochemistry behind this effect has been unclear. Now a new paper, published in Neuropsychopharmacology, suggests that changes in brain levels of the neurotransmitter glutamate are key to understanding reports of ego dissolution — and perhaps the therapeutic effects of psychedelics. Aristotle, Plato and Sophocles participated in religious ceremonies at Eleusis where upon entering the temple they were served with a fungal concoction, after which the pilgrims to this temple “spent the night together and reportedly came away forever changed.” Forever changed? Spontaneous enlightenment. How is this physically possible without the admittance of some sort of supernatural, magic, mystical other-worldy force? https://wiki-spirit.win/index.php?title=Should_marijuana_be_legalized_in_canada_article On Wednesday, a spokesman for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted that the day marked the end of “the failed prohibition of marijuana” in Canada and that legalization would take power from organized crime and prevent young people from obtaining the drug. This means, for example, that an adult 18 years of age or older, can legally possess 150 grams of fresh cannabis. Health Canada, which has regulated medical marijuana since 2001, stopped using the word marijuana in its most recent set of rules, the Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations, adopted in 2016.
