Intense Visions and Dreams
Silene capensis
Citation:   Nganga. "Intense Visions and Dreams: An Experience with Silene capensis (exp73763)". Erowid.org. Mar 14, 2016. erowid.org/exp/73763

 
DOSE:
7 Tbsp oral Silene capensis (daily)
BODY WEIGHT: 100 kg
Originally I took the prescribed amount of half a teaspoon of powdered root mixed with half a glass of cold water each morning for a period of 2 weeks. This did increase dream recall and dream lucidity but was not really all that impressive.

So I started to experiment by increasing the amount despite the warnings of it creating feelings of nausea. I mixed a tablespoon of powdered root with a cup of water and put it in the blender until it began to foam. I drank 7 of these cups a day and avoided eating meat.

On the third day I had intense visions whilst meditating and equally intense dreams that were by far more impressive then the dreams that the prescribed amount produced.
