Os conteúdos das visões da ayahuasca

Mana October 1, 2003 Benny Shanon 19 citations

Este artigo examina os conteúdos das alucinações visuais induzidas pela infusão psicotrópica ayahuasca. Ele faz parte de uma investigação fenomenológica mais ampla que busca estudar a ayahuasca de uma perspectiva psicológico-cognitiva. (Até agora, quase todos os estudos da ayahuasca partiram das ciências naturais ou da antropologia.) Análises comparativas quantitativas revelam que certos itens...

Effects of the Amazonian Psychoactive BeverageAyahuascaon Binocular Rivalry: Interhemispheric Switching or Interhemispheric Fusion?

Journal of Psychoactive Drugs September 1, 2003 Ede Frecska, Keith D. White, Luis E. Luna 12 citations

An early theoretical analysis supposed changes in hemispheric integration as the basis of altered state of consciousness induced by psychoactive drugs. Brain imaging studies revealed right cortical activation after administration of hallucinogens. Recent studies on binocular rivalry suggest that interhemispheric switching is the neural substrate of the perceptual oscillations observed during...

Human Pharmacology of Ayahuasca: Subjective and Cardiovascular Effects, Monoamine Metabolite Excretion, and Pharmacokinetics

Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics June 18, 2003 Jordi Riba, Marta Valle, Gloria Urbano et al. 383 citations

The effects of the South American psychotropic beverage ayahuasca on subjective and cardiovascular variables and urine monoamine metabolite excretion were evaluated, together with the drug's pharmacokinetic profile, in a double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial. This pharmacologically complex tea, commonly obtained from Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis, combines...

Effects of ayahuasca on sensory and sensorimotor gating in humans as measured by P50 suppression and prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex, respectively

Psychopharmacology December 1, 2002 Jordi Riba, Antoni Rodrı́guez-fornells, Manel J. Barbanoj 71 citations

RationaleAyahuasca, a South American psychotropic plant tea, combines the psychedelic agent and 5-HT(2A/2C) agonist N, N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) with beta-carboline alkaloids showing monoamine oxidase-inhibiting properties. Current human research with psychedelics and entactogens has explored the possibility that drugs displaying agonist activity at the 5-HT(2A/2C) sites temporally disrupt...

A Structural Typology of Ayahuasca Visualizations

November 7, 2002 Benny Shanon

Abstract In this chapter I present a systematic typology of the structural types that Ayahuasca visualizations may take. Paradigmatically, the types surveyed are experienced when the eyes are closed. However, all the structural distinctions introduced here, as well as those pertaining to interaction, semantics, and narration which are introduced in the next chapter, can also apply to...

Estudio químico de la Liana Ayahuasca (Banisteriopis caapi)

TECNIA June 1, 2002 Víctor Reyna Pinedo, Virginia Torpoco Carmen, Tania Sánchez Ramirez

De la liana Ayahuasca (Banisteriopsis caapi) se aisló la harmina, que fue identificada mediante su punto de fusión y el análisis porcentual de elementos. Asi mismo, se registraron sus espectros de masas, de RMN'H y RMN"C, IR y UV. Además, se realizó el análisis cuantitativo de los metabolitos secundarios y la cuantificación del total de alcaloides presentes en la planta [1].
