    Not even, peyote takes like 20 years to grow properly and it's currently on its way to becoming extinct due to people looking for an easy way to commune with the universe or w/e.

        Don't know honestly, just knew that peyote takes a long time to mature and that it's vulnerable due to overconsumption. My cousin told me this, about 2 weeks after arriving back to Mexico.

        Also read that apparently this perennial 'communing with God' thing may be more of a Western artifact than an actual 'universal truth/core', since tribes that have been taking their substances report more of a talking with the local spirits/ dealing with brujería & mal de ojo.

        I'm not saying 'don't take drugs': it's your life, do whatever you want. It's just food for thought.
