Phytopharm - Research Tools
Research tools for the Researchers, Psychonauts & Pioneers of New Paradigm Plants. The following links will prove to be useful tools for the botanists, neo-shamans & medicine makers of the New Paradigm. Through a deeper understanding & appreciation of native botanicals we may exponentially potentiate the future of modern medicine. Seek the knowledge, Pursue the plant, Heal the world.
I sincerely welcome you to the phyto-pharm research tools page. With great respect, I honor your desire to create a new paradigm of medicine & shamanism. Deadly vasts of plant knowledge have been lost & even destroyed through the actions of the death culture. However, just because the knowledge is lost does not mean that the plants have been forgotten. In great secrecy - lies the forbidden knowledge & power that is contained embedded with in our natural apothecaries. With the passion for knowledge & loving support of our community members, I have been encouraged to compile a field guide for mid-western entheogens, sacraments, medicines & natural products so that future generations may free themselves from the dependency on western medicine.
