      <description>&lt;div&gt;Made a tea out of ONE of her flowers . .
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;After having wonderful conversations with ghosts, I fell asleep.... Blacked out for 3 hours. My sister found me weeping, crawling. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I woke up and felt fine....didn't even know I was going insane until she told me. It was like I was posessed...
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Amazing entheogen. All my friends, dead or alive, came and visited me and talked to me until they vanished.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You say I should NEVER eat her, does this include the tea? ONE flower was way too intense for me.... I might make a tea out of 1/3 of a flower in the future....
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I smoked her stamen and the auditory hallucinations made me giggle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sat name,&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Peanut butter smell?</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/157971b1-3989-4101-85c3-921eda70e85f</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;There is a plany behind the place I work that looks like the one in the Photo. It however does not look like the other Jimson Weed I ate. The stems smell like peanut butter when broken open. I felt a dangersous vibe from the plant&lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Notice on the top is says "NEVER EAT DATURA"
&lt;br/&gt;That is a reasonable suggestion. You are all out of your minds.

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Here is a link summarizing the findings of research done over the last year. A long article (a few dozen pages) is being written. A collaborative article, by a writer on the erowid staff (but based loosely on this research), will appear in a forthcoming issue of the Erowid Newsletter.

      <title>THE PERFECT DRUG?</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/72d810c9-9807-4ef4-8d05-53be7a842ddf</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Jees, the flowers are pretty but after reading of the effects all I want to know is who can tell us about something better. Personally I used to love E, but it's synthetic &amp;amp; the come down can be really a drag. I was in Amsterdam recently &amp;amp; went to the Smart Shop, where they sell herb &amp;amp; shrooms etc. I asked for E &amp;amp; the guy there said the didn't sell E but the sold something better. It was Hawaiin Baby wood rose seeds. I didn't really think that these would be better than E. Has anyone out there found THE PERFECT DRUG?&lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;I love how the one substance that's sure to throw some kids asses in the hospital or jail (brugmansia/datura)
&lt;br/&gt;isn't even scheduled.
&lt;br/&gt;It grows practically everywhere
&lt;br/&gt;and yet...
&lt;br/&gt;no one really knows about it.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If our funny bow tied government scheduled these trees/plants as illegal...
&lt;br/&gt;everyone would flock to them
&lt;br/&gt;and the dead would stalk the earth.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;just a thought...
&lt;br/&gt;it's been a while...&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Tribe Rationale</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/d9e95ea0-2a8b-4c2a-9ef1-77b0c1a759ee</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;I started this tribe because I've found many people to be curious about Datura, and even more people are badly informed about her. Of course you're gonna have a bad trip if you make a tea from 60 leaves and boil it for 2 hours. Yikes.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It seems that Datura is picky. So we must be as well. She inspires some kind of indulgence, and everyone takes too much. Start out small, smoke a little and gauge the effects. She doesn't bite if you don't bite first. RESPECT.&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Northeastern US, NYC Datura</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/76d52def-0247-4c15-9fb2-20a55eed83ba</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hey there all, new here, live in Staten Island, NY and am very interested in any information on datura used by Algonquin natives and it being called wysoccan? wysoccan, a medicine that induced mental derangement and memory loss to young men so they could enter manhood --- along with that if someone knows where to find info on its botanical history Northeastern US.  I have a beginning knowledge but would be most appreciative if someone can point to some other information.  
&lt;br/&gt;One thing to note is that I have found it on Staten Island just recently, shortly after my interest began, in two different areas, if you are interested in knowing where just ask :-) so perhaps the lady is calling for me to study and get ot know her....thoughts?

      <title>A new Tribe - Psychedelic Trip Reports</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/82ec0d68-f75b-44e4-a3f4-0d7fc3a363ee</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A tribe to report Psychedelic Trips. http://tribes.tribe.net/psychedelic_trip_reports
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Formats from www.erowid.org and http://forums.lycaeum.org/ will be followed:  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The purpose of these reports is to help others deal, understand and share their journeys. The primary function of this tribe is the exchange of drug experiences in such a way as to help others that find themselves in similar situations. In addition to trip reports, experiences with other forms of mind-altering activities such as yoga, meditation, and substance preparations are also accepted. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Specifically looking for well-written reports that describe more than just a list of activities that you engaged in. Please include description of mindset, physical and mental effects of a substance, intentions, insights, problems, and any other relevant information which you think might help others in their journey. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Subject line of reports to contain at least the name of the substance(s) used. New threads must only be started with a report. For people to get the most out this tribe please included as many of the details listed below as possible:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;- Level of experience (first time, very experienced, etc.)
&lt;br/&gt;- Description of Mindset (state of mind/body before, during and after)
&lt;br/&gt;- Setting – where you were, who you were with, etc.
&lt;br/&gt;- Chemical(s) and Dosage
&lt;br/&gt;- Method of administration (oral, smoked, intramuscular, etc)
&lt;br/&gt;- Details of any preparations made for the experience
&lt;br/&gt;- Timing Information (when, how long, etc.)
&lt;br/&gt;- Effects both spiritual and/or physical
&lt;br/&gt;- Notes on prescription or over-the-counter medications, herbs or supplements you were taking at the time of the experience.
&lt;br/&gt;- Intention - tell people why you have tripped (social reasons, problem solving, gaining a spiritual insight into self or universe, etc.)
&lt;br/&gt;- Afterthought – did the experience changed you, confirm your belief, remind you of something, etc.
&lt;br/&gt;- Something more than a description of how messed up you were or what cool patterns you saw.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;VERY IMPORTANT: 
&lt;br/&gt;- New threads must only be started with a report.
&lt;br/&gt;- This is an open forum so please do NOT include any other personal information then your height, weight, and physical condition. 
&lt;br/&gt;- NO discussion about trading, selling, or obtaining any substance (legal or not) will be discussed on this tribe
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Enjoy the Journey
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>The Beginning</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/datura/thread/8387fb4d-58de-4649-b5cf-ab9a39030de7</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;    I had always been afraid to try Datura because of the scary stories people tell. I should say that I've still never taken enough to hallucinate; maybe when I find the right admixture plants to make the experience more pleasurable. But so far I've had fun and success smoking the plant, mixing it with other herbs, etc.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;    The first time I decided to try it I took ONE leaf from a small plant in a park. I barely let it dry and smoked a TINY bit of it and could immediately tell there was something there. Not much change though. The next time I gathered several flowers from huge plants growing by the sidewalk next to a gas station. I had read one report on erowid that claimed the stamen was the best part of the plant to smoke, so I tried that next. There is a slight difference, perhaps only mental, from smoking the leaves or the flowers. The stamen seem to be more glowy and sweet, the flowers come in second, and the leaves are the most coarse.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;    After smoking a very small amount I notice perceptual changes. Staring, listening, wondering why I'm staring and listening, etc. There's also an interesting body rush -- if you're paying attention or smoking enough -- that is of course sped up and intensified by smoking tobacco. It feels internally hot and cold at the same time and a little sexual. If you grab on to the feeling energetically and encourage it, it can be very sexual.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;    After one medium sized bowl there's a noticable loss of motor coordination. The pipe is harder to load, doors are harder to open, and walking is a little tricky, but any stoner will get used to it in a matter of minutes. I can only liken the body disconnection to small doses of K. After two bowls all the effects are markedly increased and only increase with time. They "peak" after about an hour. Breathing becomes low and regular, you're extremely relaxed and tired. Vision becomes slightly impaired and jumpy, but I attribute this more to the sleepiness than anything else.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;    After two bowls and an hour or so it's very easy to fall asleep. Don't. That's when you're most fully in the experience. I'm still experimenting with other admixture plants to perhaps add some energy to the experience. Pot makes the the Datura rush a little more intense, but not markedly and will only make you sleepier.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;    I think this plant would be a great boon to mediation and self-exploration and definitely as an ally. She is very powerful so use caution and respect when approaching her.&lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hi guys. I thought these links might be helpful. :) A lot of the reports about Datura are bad experiences because people took too much with the wrong attitude. These are some good experiences with good information.
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;This is an interesting article I found about the traditional uses of Datura. Enjoy.
