Agreed, it becomes one game among many. Back in the 80s I had friends who were Rajneeshees, I saw how fast MDMA use spread through communities. I did not stay in touch with these friends, they were active in the Rajneesh / Osho international scene, I was not. One past friend recently killed himself. He had been a sannyasion for close to 30 years, often in Goa, and my guess is that he never

Traditional, legitimate Native American Churches are only about peyote. Not marijuana, not ayahuasca or anything else.

Trinity is in Peru at this time. He has an exploited worker running the entire online operation for him. The worker is very stressed, overworked, and now is talking like a clone of Trinity.
