it makes sense. I'll have to look it up.

I know of the shaman's use of ayahuasca to help them have such visions, and I'll say I'm like you; I wouldn't call them a liar, yet am still apprehensive about believing it. I want to believe it, though, and do feel they probably can, but we will never witness such a change.

I was looking earlier this week for something I could contribute to the group, thread-wise, and found an interesting story on Richard Smoley's page, about an Australian musician (Ben Lee) that has taken ayahuasca. It's part of his ninth album, Ayahuasca: Welcome to the Work. The one video on that link is interesting, and I may have to hear more of the album

You're welcome for the Otherkin link. I've been fascinated with how many there are, as well as how quickly it's exploded online, relatively speaking. While it may have started even as far back as the 70s, the 1990s are considered more like an "official" starting point. Even so, that's a rather short time to be in existence as a form of belief. The New Ager in me likens it to the Indigo- and Crystal-children periods that started around the same time.
