When the system is hyper-aroused, as in Stoday’s
lifestyle, marijuana calms. The significance of this fact
cannot be ignored. It explains the increased creativity
reported as a part of the marijuana experience, because
when both sides of brain processes are heightened, both
types of brain activity are greater. The left brain notices
more, while the right brain receives more. This is the
unification of logic and intuition. The term “expansion
of consciousness” is explained physiologically as a
“shifting of brain emphasis from one-sidedness to
balance” (Sugarmena and Tarter, 1978), which fits
precisely with the feeling called “high.” (p. 35)
Marijuana ingestion has been shown to change
the worried state by producing alpha waves,
experienced as well being. (p. 36)
When we ingest marijuana, the heart swells
through capillary enhancement and is fueled more by
more fully oxygenated blood, while, at the same time,
its contractions and expansions are greater, allowing
for stronger pumping action to the rest of the body (p.
37)
As rigidity in the body is released or reduced by
the action of marijuana, there is a corresponding
reduction of mental tension that translates into a
feeling of expansion and well being and explains the
reverential attitude commonly expressed by marijuana
lovers. (p. 39)
As the body’s workings can become more
harmonious with marijuana, the functioning of the five
senses can be noticeably improved ....In our discussion,
the trigger to the high experience is marijuana, but
many other activities can also produce it, such as
jogging, chanting, fasting, isolation, meditation, and
prayer. (p. 41)
The marijuana experience itself does not
miraculously cure. Instead, it allows the body a respite
from the tensions of imbalance, while exposing the
mental confusion of the mind. The marijuana
experience of balance becomes a learned and, over
time, somewhat permanent response as the essential
human tendency to homeostasis is reawakened and the
natural healing process restored. (p. 49)
For a serious psychosomatic disease such as
cancer, the benefits to be derived from marijuana
cannot be overstated:
1. The causal element of unconscious (repressed)
pain can be ferreted out.
2. The breath can be restored to fullness,
thereby eliminating directly the built up toxicity and, at
the same time, enjoining balance throughout the whole
organism. A depressed system is a weakened system,
and since it works holistically, marijuana gives strength
where weakness exists, and expansion and relaxation
where there is contraction and nervousness.
3. The more richly oxygenated blood that is in
effect with marijuana can help to cleanse the poisons at
the cellular level.
4. And a broader perspective through activation
of the entire brain leads to positive feelings and thus
eliminates the usual and debilitating attitudes so
common in cancerhelplessness, depression, fear,
resignation, and dread. (p. 60)
Application of Marijuana:
In a Costa Rican study, it was found that chronic
marijuana smokers who also smoked cigarettes were
less likely to develop cancer than cigarette smokers
who didn’t use marijuana. Since marijuana (smoking,
as well as ingestion by other methods) dilates the
alveoli, toxins are more easily eliminated with cannabis
use regardless of its method of application. Nicotine, on
the other hand, constricts the alveoli, so it is likely that
the use of cannabis neutralizes, or even overwhelms
the constriction, by its own tendency to dilation ...As
an aid for all psychosomatic disease, marijuana can
benefit the participant, generally because of its health-
restoring effects... The fear of marijuana... stems
from its limitless potential for treating illness, in
that both the pharmaceutical industry and the
medical monopoly would lose billions of dollars if
marijuana became the non-drug of choice. (p. 61)
PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS
When we balance the Autonomic Nervous System, there
is an effect on the mind that is both energizing and
relaxing SIMULTANEOUSLY. In other words, we can
think more clearly and more efficiently.
The following are excerpts from The Benefits of
Marijuana :
Natural feelings of expansion that correspond to
favorable perceptions, such as a sense of
accomplishment, are experiences common to us all,
What makes marijuana unique and beneficial is its
ability to summon these states of well-being at will (p.
44) We might suggest that those hundreds of millions of
people around the world who face marijuana to
experience higher levels of life, do so specifically
because of the great import they ascribe to being “
high,” i.e., feeling better, happier, more expansive, and
therefore more tolerant and compassionate. (p. 4545)
Whereas marijuana results in an “altered state
of consciousness,” the depressant drugs have been
described as producing “altered states of
unconsciousness” (Sugerman and Tarter), allowing for
relaxation without awareness. (p.45)
Marijuana exposes things. When used over a
period of time, it allows us to witness our many subtle
motives which, under normal consciousness, are
usually not noticeable. (p 46)
It was just this catalytic effect of marijuana to
expose the unconscious and increase the patient’s
vulnerability, while maintaining awareness and
understanding that prompted psychologists (in the
1960s and 1970s) to utilize marijuana extensively in
the therapeutic studies before the government ban (P.
47)

With the expansiveness that occurs with
marijuana, the subject may begin to notice infinite
possibilities to raise the quality of his/her life that
would otherwise have remained hidden from normal,
defensive consciousness. And feelings of health and
happiness naturally lead to hope, which of itself can be
curative. (p. 49)
Marijuana can act as the loosening agent, so that
whatever has been banned from consciousness may
come cascading forth. To uncover our deceptions
without our usual rationalizations can be unpleasant,
an experience that has turned many psychologically
fragile individuals away from marijuana despite its
therapeutic catharsis. (p. 50)
Regardless of the model used, marijuana resolves
conflict by de-emphasizing extreme aggressiveness and
stroking the receptive sides of human nature. This
unification or balance, however, may be responsible for
changes in goals and values. It Is the healthy balancing
nature of marijuana that is most beneficial to the
individual and most threatening to modern society. (p.
51)
When it first became popular in the West,
marijuana was imported mainly from tropical zones,
where the sativa strain of cannabis is indigenous. This
type of marijuana is known for its “cerebral high,”
having little noticeable body participation. No studies
concerning the different effects of sativa vs. indica have
been done, but from the lack of physical sensation, it is
reasonable to assume more Sympathetic or stimulant
qualities in sativa than indica (a cooler climate type).
This is compatible with the notion that in hotter
climates, less calming is desirable from a recreational
substance, since hot climates in themselves cause
lethargy. Many connoisseurs of marijuana prefer the
sativa high, although in the last decade it has become
very scarce due to domestic cultivation of strains that
thrive in temperate zones (and indoors). “Cerebral
highs” are experienced as lightness of thought beyond
usual concern with self esteem. In relationships, a
cerebral high attunes the participants to a less separate
sense of themselves. Conversation is animated and a
general feeling of camaraderie is in the air.
The indica strain of cannabis offers more of the
“body high.” Depth rather than height best describes
the subjective experience. Rather than freedom in the
mind, the felt sensation is freedom of the body. This
state more closely mimics deep relaxation. Thought
patterns do not approach the clarity of thought of a
“cerebral high.” In contrast, the “body high” is similar
to the reverie that precedes sleep. While thinking may
be diminished, more sensitivity to nonverbal
experiences, such as music and color, comes into play.
Physiologically, a true “body high” probably is the
result of more Parasympathetic input. Participants ofen
become quieter, since internal silence predominates.
Indica thrives in temperate areas, and as such it
has become more popular with the American
marijuana farmer. It is a shorter variety, thus it is
more suited for the limits of indoor gardens and comes
to fruition earlier in outdoor gardens. In less tropical
zones, recreational substances are compatible with
tempering the bustle usual to cooler climate cultures.
As horticultural interest has grown, a cross between
the indica and sativa species of cannabis has given the
modern marijuana user the subtleties of both strains.
Nowadays quality marijuana, grown in the US, is
usually a hybrid of the indica and sativa varieties. (p.
56)
Marijuana will not tolerate repression.
Tranquilizers and depressants relax the body and
release tension, but the state of mind associated with
these drugs is “unconsciousness” whereby we escape
rather than resolve our dilemmas. Alcoholism is an
extreme need of both the body and personality
periodically to release the nervousness that has
accumulated and continues to accumulate to an
unbearable degree. It serves the same function for the
collective personality for the society, as well A culture
in which alcohol and tranquilizers are the prevalent
form of release prefers not to witness internal
confusion and actually choose to act without conscious
participation, maintaining a semi-numb condition.

SPIRITUAL BENEFITS
That which enlivens is understood as the SPIRIT. In
these times of secular values, when the life force is not
recognized as being an expression of the holy, when in
fact, the notion of a plane of existence beyond the
material is not acknowledged, the search for meaning
nevertheless perseveres.
Today, in these darkest of times, hundreds of millions
who pursue the journey inward to the universal core
values, find that marijuana facilitates the search. As a
religious sacrament, intuitively recognized by all for
whom the sacred beckons, marijuana has been
employed for thousands of years, crossing all
geographical and ethnic barriers. Marijuana not only
balances the body, and enhances our mental processes,
it can also help (some of) us to perceive the abiding
reality by raising our consciousness.
The following are excerpts from The Benefits of
Marijuana :
Meditation Is the ultimate tool for self-
knowledge In the East, marijuana has been used to
facilitate the process for millennia. (p.47)
The uncovering of inner confusion, so prominent
with marijuana, is conspicuously absent with
depressants. As the overall benefits of insightfulness
obtained from its use lead to a greater freedom,
marijuana is shunned by individuals who need a status
quo in the personality or social position.
Sigmund Freud developed and expounded the
understanding that we mechanically base our actions
on programs devised throughout life, and many
esoteric schools, ancient and modern, have taught the
same. Being aware of these programs is very difficult
since ordinary consciousness has within it the
conspiracy to keep the mind comfortable and free of
conflict This operates collectively as well as
individually. Whenever confronted, this usual state of
mind automatically assumes a defensive posture by
relying on distorted rationalizations, which are evident
in a repressive and intolerant social order. By contrast,
the open and aware consciousness often leads to
spiritual realizations, irrelevant in mainstream
thinking. In today’s world, this understanding is
uncommon. Higher morals and ethics, as propounded
by organized religions, are agreed upon by the masses,
especially during church attendance, but are otherwise
too difficult to maintain when personal survival is at
stake. Universal spiritual values, so often released with
marijuana, can break down the conditioned defensive
mentality.
It appears as if society, as well as the
programmed, individual mind, needs to hold in check
the notion that we love our neighbor as ourselves.
There is no way that we can love our neighbor as
ourselves, nor any way that our economy can subscribe
to a policy of cooperation, when the very life of
business enterprise is dependent upon “profit first and
foremost.” Cooperation within free enterprise is a
difficult reality so long as “me first” remains the
primary motivation. A neurotic society, with its deeply
imbedded habit of maladaptive coping methods, is
resistant to change. Marijuana can be of tremendous
benefit in exposing the distorted perspectives
responsible for social, class, and racial conflict It can
open the “doors of perception,” and thereby after the
very core of the personality, by allowing a view of the
transcendent values of human life. (p. 57)
In the area of private values, marijuana may
offer benefits beyond the personal ego, which reach the
dimension referred to by mystics and saints as the
ever-present “now.” The experience addresses states of
consciousness not common to the common man and
resembles Maslow’s “peak experience.” (p. 65)
To ascend the ladder of consciousness, human
beings need as much help as they can get. Levels of
consciousness above concerns of personal survival and
power are neither necessary for human life, nor visible
from ordinary states. Because these higher degrees of
awareness threaten the power structure, all paths to
them are often outlawed. If we are not taught by some
older, wiser person that deep and timeless perceptions
really exist (or unless we ourselves fortuitously catch a
glimpse of these subjective realities), we remain
ignorant of their existence and are easily molded into
the lower social goals of materialism, competition, and
power. This less enlightened state is expressed by a
constant gnawing dissatisfaction. It is the dimension of
perennial desire. With each fulfillment of a goal /need /
want, another void erupts. In Buddhism, it is the realm
of nightmarish, insatiable hunger, which cannot be
resolved unless or until the being attains to a less self-
centered level. Deep within each of us, an essential
need for a higher meaning of life waits to be
awakened. Because of its ability to unlock this yearning
and allow us a glimpse of the deeper reality, marijuana
is feared by the establishment and loved by the user.
(p. 66)
It is mainly because spiritual values are
abandoned during eras of materialism that marijuana
is banned today. And, ironically, it is because these
values are so absent in the modern culture that the
marijuana experience is so ardently sought. (P. 67)
Perhaps investigation into the higher human
values could not surface in the industrial West until all
imaginable physical, psychological, and social
dysfunction reached dangerous proportions. (p. 67)
The Christian mystic de Chardin, explaining this
same process, says, “physical energy must be mastered
and grounded for spiritual energy to move, because
physical energy transforms the spirit.” (Ferguson)
Within the deep recesses of human understanding, the
intuitive faculty steers its course. For many who are in
touch with this sixth sense, the realm of the spirit is
supreme. Anything that demonstrates a possibility for
psycho/spiritual uplifting is known to be sacred.
Marijuana is so recognized and revered. “Bhang brings
union with the Divine Spirit.” (Indian Hemp
Commission) (p. 69)
“Through balance, with time and interest,
marijuana can enliven the Center of Knowing.” In the
Theory of Vibration, this is the sixth level of
development known as the “Knowledge Center.” What
we refer to as the sixth sense, or intuition, derives from
this esoteric symbol, which very often is depicted as a
third eye, located at the midbrow. (p. 71)
As we have seen, many an argument against
marijuana refers to the non-competitive nature it
engenders. During the Vietnam War, one of the major
problems of our soldiers was their inability to accept
the brutality of their own actions. Our young men
encountered marijuana at every turn in Asia (the
Vietnam War was the beginning of marijuana use in
this country, since it was the first time a status and
educational cross section of America was exposed to it),
and their reaction was often not in keeping with the
insensitivity necessary for war. Their conscience
bothered them. Gaining higher values, such as
compassion, cooperation, and consideration, is a
function of balance and a threat to a militaristic
society. If we all became aware of our conscience, who
would be left to maintain the indifference of the social
order. The more we uncover the spiritual element in
our natures, the more sensitive we become. Scrooge
had no conscience until he experienced the spirit He
was surely happier and healthier after his vision, but
not wealthier, for his conscience dictated that he share.
His new-felt sensitivity did not result from rules, fear,
or his superego. It overflowed joyfully as an expression
of his higher state of being.
Marijuana’s contribution to the developing spirit
is cumulative. As bodily tensions are reduced mental
fears dissolve, clearing the way to greater insight But,
until the direct effect (physical balance) of marijuana
on the body and the attendant side effect (high) of
marijuana on the mind become familiar, the alterations
themselves remain the focus of interest The “getting
high” is the end in itself, rather than the
understanding and insight that accrues a s the changed
set becomes more a common. People who try
marijuana and reject it do so usually because they feel
uncomfortable and confused in altered, fuller
consciousness. Instead of life being safely framed by the
rigidity of the societal dogma, the wold becomes
unfamiliarly bigger, brighter, fuller, yet less
manageable, more unpredictable and full of mystery. A
mind that has been bound and accustomed to a low
charge or a selling without light very often finds the
expansiveness of reality too highly energized. The light
can be blinding and disorienting. Over time, and with
regular intake, when these higher states of seeing are
no longer the focal point of attention, a restructuring of
values may emerge.

There is no plant on Earth more condemned than marijuana. We’re talking about a living organism which governments have taken upon themselves to designate as an illegal substance. Despite no existing evidence of anyone ever dying of a marijuana overdose, possession of this plant is still illegal in many parts. Marijuana has been found to suppress cancer, reduce blood pressure, treat glaucoma, alleviate pain and even inhibit HIV. It is an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective. Can you understand more now why it’s illegal?


No Independent Study Has Ever Linked Marijuana To Psychosocial Problems

Cannabis is one of the most powerful healing plants on the planet. Dozens of studies have made pseudoscientific attempts to indicate that young people who use cannabis tend to experience psychological, social problems and mental decline. However, there is no evidence that marijuana use is directly linked with such problems, according to the results of a study published in The Lancet.

“Currently, there is no strong evidence that use of cannabis of itself causes psychological or social problems,” such as mental illness or school failure, lead study author Dr. John Macleod of the University of Birmingham in the UK told Reuters Health.

“There is a great deal of evidence that cannabis use is associated with these things, but this association could have several explanations,” he said, citing factors such as adversity in early life, which may itself be associated with cannabis use and psychosocial problems.

Macleod and his team reviewed 48 long-term studies, 16 of which provided the highest quality information about the association between illicit drug use reported by people 25 years old or younger and later psychological or social problems. Most of the drug-specific results involved cannabis use.

Cannabis use was not consistently associated with violent or antisocial behavior, or with psychological problems.

In another study, Scientists from King’s College, London, found occasional pot use could actually improve concentration levels.

The study, carried in the American Journal of Epidemiology, tested the mental function and memory of nearly 9,000 Britons at age 50 and found that those who had used illegal drugs as recently as in their 40s did just as well, or slightly better, on the tests than peers who had never used drugs.

‘Overall, at the population level, the results seem to suggest that past or even current illicit drug use is not necessarily associated with impaired cognitive functioning in early middle age,’ said lead researcher Dr Alex Dregan.
Dr Dregan’s team used data on 8,992 42-year-olds participating in a UK national health study, who were asked if they had ever used any of 12 illegal drugs. Then, at the age of 50, they took standard tests of memory, attention and other cognitive abilities.

Overall, the study found, there was no evidence that current or past drug users had poorer mental performance. In fact, when current and past users were lumped together, their test scores tended to be higher.

The Age of Deception is Ending

In 2003, the U.S. Government as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services filed for, and was awarded a patent on cannabinoids. The reason? Because research into cannabinoids allowed pharmaceutical companies to acquire practical knowledge on one of the most powerful antioxidants and neuroprotectants known to the natural world.

The U.S. Patent 6630507 was specifically initiated when researchers found that cannabinoids had specific antioxidant properties making them useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia. Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention.

In a historic and significant moment in American history, last November, Colorado became the first US state to legalize marijuana for recreational use. The impact of the decision could ripple across the entire country with vast opportunities to educate millions on the top health benefits of marijuana.

With the passage of I-502 in the 2012 Washington State election, marijuana also became legal in Washington–not just for medical use, but also for recreational use. Weed is still illegal as far as the United States government is concerned, but Washington and Colorado both have yet to figure out how that will work. It’s certain that this issue will continue to evolve and smooth out as time goes by, but the remaining states will eventually follow suit or be left behind with outdated laws.

Top Health Benefits

It’s no surprise that the United States has decreed that marijuana has no accepted medical use use and should remain classified as a highly dangerous drug like heroin. Accepting and promoting the powerful health benefits of marijuana would instantly cut huge profits geared towards cancer treatment and the U.S. would have to admit it imprisons the population for no cause. Nearly half of all drug arrests in the United States are for marijuana.

According to MarijuanaNews.com editor Richard Cowan, the answer is because it is a threat to cannabis prohibition “…there really is massive proof that the suppression of medical cannabis represents the greatest failure of the institutions of a free society, medicine, journalism, science, and our fundamental values,” Cowan notes.



Besides the top 10 health benefits below, findings published in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers have now have now discovered that marijuana-like chemicals trigger receptors on human immune cells that can directly inhibit a type of human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) found in late-stage AIDS.

Recent studies have even shown it to be an effective atypical anti-psychotic in treating schizophrenia, a disease many other studies have inconsistently found it causing.

1. Cancer
Cannabinoids, the active components of marijuana, inhibit tumor growth in laboratory animals and also kill cancer cells. Western governments have known this for a long time yet they continued to suppress the information so that cannabis prohibition and the profits generated by the drug industry proliferated.

THC that targets cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 is similar in function to endocannabinoids, which are cannabinoids that are naturally produced in the body and activate these receptors. The researchers suggest that THC or other designer agents that activate these receptors might be used in a targeted fashion to treat lung cancer.

2. Tourette’s Syndrome
Tourette’s syndrome is a neurological condition characterized by uncontrollable facial grimaces, tics, and involuntary grunts, snorts and shouts.

Dr. Kirsten Mueller-Vahl of the Hanover Medical College in Germany led a team that investigated the effects of chemicals called cannabinols in 12 adult Tourette’s patients. A single dose of the cannabinol produced a significant reduction in symptoms for several hours compared to placebo, the researchers reported.

3. Seizures
Marijuana is a muscle relaxant and has “antispasmodic” qualities that have proven to be a very effective treatment for seizures. There are actually countless cases of people suffering from seizures that have only been able to function better through the use of marijuana.

4. Migraines
Since medicinal marijuana was legalized in California, doctors have reported that they have been able to treat more than 300,000 cases of migraines that conventional medicine couldn’t through marijuana.

5. Glaucoma
Marijuana’s treatment of glaucoma has been one of the best documented. There isn’t a single valid study that exists that disproves marijuana’s very powerful and popular effects on glaucoma patients.

6. Multiple Sclerosis
Marijuana’s effects on multiple sclerosis patients became better documented when former talk-show host, Montel Williams began to use pot to treat his MS. Marijuana works to stop the neurological effects and muscle spasms that come from the fatal disease.

7. ADD and ADHD
A well documented USC study done about a year ago showed that marijuana is not only a perfect alternative for Ritalin but treats the disorder without any of the negative side effects of the pharmaceutical.

8. IBS and Crohn’s
Marijuana has shown that it can help with symptoms of the chronic diseases as it stops nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

9. Alzheimer’s
Despite what you may have heard about marijuana’s effects on the brain, the Scripps Institute, in 2006, proved that the THC found in marijuana works to prevent Alzheimer’s by blocking the deposits in the brain that cause the disease.

10. Premenstrual Syndrome
Just like marijuana is used to treat IBS, it can be used to treat the cramps and discomfort that causes PMS symptoms. Using marijuana for PMS actually goes all the way back to Queen Victoria.

Mounting Evidence Suggests Raw Cannabis is Best

Cannabinoids can prevent cancer, reduce heart attacks by 66% and insulin dependent diabetes by 58%. Cannabis clinician Dr. William Courtney recommends drinking 4 – 8 ounces of raw flower and leaf juice from any Hemp plant, 5 mg of Cannabidiol (CBD) per kg of body weight, a salad of Hemp seed sprouts and 50 mg of THC taken in 5 daily doses.

Why raw? Heat destroys certain enzymes and nutrients in plants. Incorporating raw cannabis allows for a greater availability of those elements. Those who require large amounts of cannabinoids without the psychoactive effects need to look no further than raw cannabis. In this capacity, it can be used at 60 times more tolerance than if it were heated.
Raw cannabis is considered by many experts as a dietary essential. As a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, raw cannabis may be right u there with garlic and tumeric.

auto_freak2020: Uruguay has become the first nation to legalise
the growing , sale and smoking of marijuana
after the country's Senate gave final approval to
the legislation .

After a long debate on Tuesday, 16 of 29
senators voted in favour of the law championed
by President Jose Mujica .
The legislation is aimed at wresting the business
from criminals in the small South American
nation .

Backers of the law , some smoking joints,
gathered near Congress holding green balloons ,
Jamaican flags in homage to singer- songwriter
Bob Marley and a sign saying : "Cultivating
freedom , Uruguay grows. "

Cannabis consumers will be able to buy a
maximum of 40 grams each month from
licensed pharmacies as long as they are
Uruguayan residents over the age of 18 and
registered on a government database that will
monitor their monthly purchases.

When the law is implemented in mid- April ,
Uruguayans will be able to grow six marijuana
plants in their homes a year, or as much as 480
grams , and form smoking clubs of 15 to 45
members that can grow up to 99 plants per
year .

Registered drug users should be able to start
buying marijuana over the counter from
licensed pharmacies in April.

But Senator Roberto Conde, a former deputy
foreign minister with the governing Broad
Front, said marijuana "is already established in
Uruguay . It 's a drug that is already seen as very
low risk and enormously easy to get ."

Other countries have decriminalised marijuana
possession and the Netherlands allows its sale
in coffee shops, but Uruguay will be the first
nation to legalise the whole chain from growing
the plant to buying and selling its leaves .

Several countries such as Canada, the
Netherlands and Israel have legal programmes
for growing medical cannabis but do not allow
cultivation of marijuana for recreational use .
Last year, the US states of Colorado and
Washington passed ballot initiatives that legalise
and regulate the recreational use of marijuana .
http://m.aljazeera.com/story/2013121112048192439

Uruguay has decided it's destiny.We should not criminalize the nature,I hope by 2030 it will be free everywhere.
