DOSE:
1 hit smoked Salvia divinorum (extract - 10x)
BODY WEIGHT: 170 lb
10x Salvia Extract
1 LARGE Bong hit
1st time breaking through
Note: So much happened at once, and this is just the best emotion to English translation that I can do. The trip was defiantly much more complex than I can ever describe it.

After clearing the chamber of the 1st bong hit I started to feel weird. I told the three other people with me, 'No more'.
They thought I just didn't want anymore and that I was not going to break through, but I knew that I had broke through.
Everyone was surprised that I could have broken through after just 1 hit. I had never done salvia before and broken through.
Once I broke through It was just so obvious to me that I broke through and something was about to happen, but I wasn't expecting anything like what happened.

So anyway, after I cleared the chamber, I told them 'No More No More'. That’s when the bong started spinning and flew away from me. Then I said 'wow I'm so fucked up! wow-- wow'. Then my 3 friends said that I broke out into a fit of laughter for 3 minutes. For those 3 minutes I was in another dimension, universe, existence, and reality.

First my body kind of turned into liquid and I splashed away. Then I saw a bunch of boxes (6-12), and each box had the same exact image in it. The image was a bird's eye view of a city. From a very high altitude. Then I remember flashing back to reality for a second. Slouching over my legs (I was sitting “Indian style” as they used to call it in 1st grade) and once I touched my head to my legs I completely lost reality. COMPLETELY-- It was just gone.

When I completely lost reality I went to a new world. The best way I can describe it is: I had an Out of Body Experience where my consciousness went to another dimension and observed my existence in that other dimension. I could feel and understand the existence completely. Here is what happened: First My consciousness (which was in the shape of my body...but not my body itself) got chopped into many multicolor blocks and fell down through my bed. Once it fell through my bed it changed shape into an orb shaped wisp. It reminded me a lot of the wisp unit in Warcraft III. Next my consciousness fell through the house, the ground, the earth, and then finally the rift between the dimensions. Once my consciousness got to the other side of the dimensions it was floating down in the sky over the same city that I saw before I completely lost reality. Finally it floated down to a beach. The entire beach looked like a completely normal beach except for one small section. That small section was yellow. The yellow section of the water on the beach was my existence in that dimension. I felt myself crashing onto the beach. I felt myself completely drenched of water. But at the same time I felt myself being the embodiment of the water in my little yellow section. Then suddenly I flashed back into reality.

When I flashed into reality my friends were asking me stuff. And I don’t remember what they were asking me. But I remember I told them there were bongs everywhere, which was completely untrue. There wasn’t a single bong in sight. And I told them I’d explain it after “they” went away. I think when I said they I was talking about the waves. Then after that I went back to my weird sitting position with my upper body slouched over my lower body. And I could feel the waves again, and I could see myself there again, but it wasn’t like I was viewing it as my consciousness and stuff like that, it was simply a visualization at this point. The difference also between this time and when I was viewing it was my consciousness is that this time I saw the water in the form of small chips (they resembled poker chips I guess…orange poker chips.) Then it all ended and I was not tripping anymore.

This was by far the most intense experience of my life. I don’t plan on doing salvia again any time soon, but it is an amazing drug.
