Also, smoking is not the only way. If you consume an MAO inhibitor (such as Syrian Rue, fully legal and available on Amazon) beforehand, it allows your stomach to metabolize it which is by far the most effecient method. It also extends the experience from only 5-20 minutes to 30min-3hours. It's also the reason I can no longer do it ever again... I took some bad advice from a trip report forum and took a much larger dose than I had ever before smoking it. I had about 10-15 minutes of the most incredible experience of my life. Then the experience abruptly overwhelmed me and I had 3-4 hours of sheer terror. I panicked and called 911. I understand first hand why they call ayahuasca the 'death vine', as I experienced death (not literally, but I essentially did in my mind). The EMTs called my wife, hence why I am banned for life from consuming DMT again. Overall, even the 'bad trip' part was rewarding because I wanted a spiritual experience.
I am not discouraging or encouraging you to do it, I am just sharing my own experience and mistakes. I doubt you will you have a bad experience if you smoke it or if you start off with a low dose + an MAO inhibitor.
So yea, smoking may not be the only way, but it seems like the only "smart" way lol
The 7 minutes were long enough for me.
