Kaaaka Albert Hofmann

Ma ka ʻauinalā o ʻApelila 19th, 1943, ka Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann hāʻule waika a holo i kona kaʻa i ka hale. ʻO Hofmann, ka mea i hana ma ke keʻena lāʻau lapaʻau o Sandoz Laboratories ma Basel, ua hana mua ʻo ia. LSD i ka makahiki 1938 i ka wā e ho'āʻo ana e hana i ka mea hoʻoulu e mālama i nā pilikia hanu a me ke kahe.

ʻAʻole ʻo ia i manaʻo he hopena psychedelic ka pūhui, a ʻaʻohe hopena i ʻike ʻia ke hoʻāʻo ʻia i nā holoholona hoʻomaha, no laila waiho ʻo ia.

ʻElima mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hoʻoholo ʻo Hofmann e nānā hou i kāna hana. Ma ʻApelila 16th, 1943, ua hoʻohui ʻo ia i kahi pūʻulu LSD hou. I kēia manawa, ua komo wale ʻo ia i kahi mea liʻiliʻi i loko o kona ʻili, a poho iloko "He ʻano ʻona maikaʻi ʻole e like me ke ʻano, i hōʻike ʻia e ka noʻonoʻo hoʻoulu ʻia."

Ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e hoʻāʻo iā ia iho me kahi maʻi i manaʻo ʻia e hōʻoia i ka hopena o ka hui, a ma ka hola 4:20 pm ma ʻApelila 19th, ua hoʻokomo ʻo ia i 250 micrograms o ka kemika.

Ua ʻike koke ʻo ia e hele ikaika ana ka huakaʻi, a noi ʻo ia i kāna kōkua e kōkua iā ia e hoʻi i ka home. Ua pāpā ʻia nā kaʻa i ka wā kaua ma nā alanui o Basel, no laila pono lākou e holo kaʻa - ʻo ia ke kumu i ʻike ʻia ai ka lā 19 ʻApelila a puni ka honua. Lā Paikikala.

Me kēlā huakaʻi trippy kaulana ʻole, ua lilo ʻo Hofmann i makua kāne ʻepekema-akua o maʻalapi, he huaʻōlelo i haku ʻia e ka psychiatrist Humphry Osmond ma muli o nā huaʻōlelo Helene no ka "manaʻo-hōʻike".

Ua kākau ka mea kākau moʻolelo ʻo John Horgan no Hawaiian American Ua manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo Hofmann i ka wā i hoʻohana pono ʻia ai, hiki i nā psychedelics ke hoʻoulu i ka "mana i hānau ʻia o ka ʻike hihiʻo" i loaʻa iā mākou a pau ma ke ʻano he kamaliʻi, a nalowale i ko mākou ulu ʻana.

He pilina koʻikoʻi ʻo Hofmann me ke kahua āna i kōkua ai i ka hana ʻana, a kapa ʻia ʻo LSD i kāna "keiki pilikia" ma ka puke āna i kākau ai e pili ana i kāna mau haʻawina i ke kemika psychedelic.

Ua aʻo pū ʻo ia i nā halo kilokilo a ʻo ia ka mea mua i hoʻokaʻawale, synthesize, a inoa i nā pūhui psychedelic psilocybin a me psilocin. He i haʻi aku iā Horgan e pili ana i kahi huakaʻi psilocybin āna i lawe ai i ka wā i hoʻopau ai ʻo ia i loko o kahi kūlanakauhale ʻuhane i loko o ka honua.

"ʻAʻohe kanaka ma laila," wahi a Hofmann. “Ua loaʻa iaʻu ka manaʻo mehameha loa, mehameha loa. He manaʻo weliweli!" I kona hoʻi ʻana mai i kēia mokulele a ʻike hou iā ia me nā hoaaloha, ua hauʻoli ʻo Hofmann. Ua haʻi ʻo ia iā Horgan, ma kāna leo koʻikoʻi Swiss, "Ua manaʻo wau e hānau hou ʻia! E ʻike hou i kēia manawa! A e ʻike i ka nani o ko kākou ola ma ʻaneʻi!”

ʻO ka ʻimi e manaʻo hou i ka hānau hou ʻana i ka manawa o COVID-19 a me ka noho kaʻawale ʻana. ʻO ka maʻalapi Ua paʻi hou ka puke pai DoubleBlind i kahi ʻatikala ma hoʻohana i ka quarantine ma ke ʻano he manawa no ka ʻimi ʻana i loko a me ka hana hou ʻana iā ia iho.

Ua ʻōlelo ka mea hoʻokumu ʻo DoubleBlind ʻo Madison Margolin, i loko o ke ao holoʻokoʻa COVID-emi, e nānā ana ʻo ia i ka lā Bicycle ma kahi seder psychedelic. “Ua hoʻolālā mākou e hui pū me Hui ʻAina Disco e hoʻolauleʻa i ka lā Paikikala a me ka mōliaola.

Akā, ʻōlelo ʻo Margolin, ʻo DoubleBlind e hui pū ana i kahi ʻahaʻaina manuahi manuahi me SPORE (ka Society for Psychedelic Outreach, Reform, and Education) i ka lā 19 ʻApelila e kākoʻo ai i nā hana kōkua coronavirus, "e hoʻolauleʻa ai i ka pānaʻi a me kā mākou pilina me ka Honua a me kekahi," e hoomaka ana ma 8:45 am PST.

Ua hopohopo ʻo Margolin e pili ana i nā ʻoihana kalepa hou e komo ana i ka psychedelic space, wahi āna, ʻoiai mākou e ʻike i kahi "psychedelic renaissance. No nā makahiki, nonprofits like the ʻAhahui Multidisciplinary for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) a me ka Chacruna Institute for Plant Medicine ua koʻikoʻi i ka noiʻi a me ka hoʻonaʻauao no ka poʻe e pōmaikaʻi mai nā psychedelics.

Akā i kēia mau lā, ua nānā nā billionaires Silicon Valley i ka profitability ʻO ka ʻoihana, ʻo nā hui neuro-pharmaceutical e ulu ana pāʻoihana psychedelic pūhui, a me ka Wall Street Pai ke uhi nei psychedelic hoʻomaka.

"E hana maoli ana ia me kekahi ʻoihana wela hou," wahi a Margolin. Manaʻolana naʻe ʻo ia e like me nā psychedelics decriminalized ma ka pae kūloko, a ke holomua nei ka noiʻi lapaʻau a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, e hoʻohanohano ka poʻe hou i ka lewa i nā ʻano ʻuhane o ka neʻe.

"Ke ʻimi nei kahi lima o nā hui e hoʻokumu i nā lāʻau synthetic mai nā psychedelics, ʻoiai e wehe ana i ka ʻaoʻao 'huakaʻi' mai ka ʻike," wahi a Margolin. "Akā, manaʻo ka nui o nā psychonauts ʻo ka huakaʻi ka lāʻau lapaʻau."

ʻO ia ka ʻike a Albert Hofmann no LSD. Ma kāna lā hānau 100th i ka makahiki 2006, ma kahi symposium honua ma Basel, ua hāʻawi ʻo ia i kahi olelo i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, "Ua hāʻawi mai iaʻu i ka hauʻoli o loko, ka noʻonoʻo hāmama, ka mahalo, nā maka hāmama a me ka naʻau o loko no nā hana mana o ka hana ʻana. Ke manaʻo nei au ʻaʻole i pono ka loaʻa ʻana o kēia waiwai, LSD i ka hoʻomohala kanaka. He mea hana wale ia e hoʻohuli ai iā mākou i ka mea e manaʻo ʻia ai mākou. "
