1999 : being told that the year 2000 was going to mark the 6 thousand years of mans existence and that the 1000 year kingdom in the new paradisewould come in the year 2000.

I'm sorry I wrote "being told in 1999 ", I really meant "believing that 2000 '' was finally the year of the 6,000 years

2000 : asking lots of questions as to when Armageddon would come,figured out that if Jesus ''really existed'' the signs he spoke of to his disciples was for his generation,not any generation after his
2018 : it's never coming, no signs just lies from the WTBTS, make everyone fear the word "Armageddon" and you will have loyal followers

Ayahuasca The Soul Herb
by new boy ini'm writing this tread for the people out there that are still looking for some kind of answers.
people who feel the void that any organized thought system can produce.
people who know there is more to this life than our daily routine which eventually will end, when we no longer exist.

WHAT IS AYAHUASCA?
Young ayahuasca plantAyahuasca is an Amazonian plant mixture that is capable of inducing altered states of consciousness, usually lasting between 4 to 8 hours after ingestion. Ranging from mildly stimulating to extremely visionary, ayahuasca is used primarily as a medicine and as a shamanic means of communication, typically in a ceremonial session under the guidance of an experienced drinker.The main ingredient of this jungle tea is a vine, Banisteriopsis caapi, which like the tea itself is also called ayahuasca (which means ‘vine of the soul’ or ‘vine with a soul’). The secondary ingredient is either chacruna (Psychotria viridis) or chagropanga (Diplopterys cabrerana), plants that contain a relatively high amount of the psychedelic substance DMT.

It's been said that your brain lies to you. It protects you from what is really present in you. If you're ugly, fat, a drug addict, an annoying person, it hides it.
Does Ayahausca show/tell you what kind of person you really are and let's you figure it out after you experience?

Have you ever taken Ayahuasca ? What did you experience?
I have never taken LSD, magic mushrooms, cocaine, heroin, DMT, or any other psychedelic drugs. I did smoke marijuana as a teen. It did make me see another world. I saw colors that were brighter, time stood still, music sounded much clearer and sounded like ''God's'' speaker system, and made me focus on small functions we do on a daily basis as a big deal.

Thank you for your informative comment! I learn something every day from the comments on this wonderful site.
That is an explanation I agree with 100%. The Society writes a small sentence in a Watchtower article and that becomes the new parable teaching. Since every member will read it in the Watchtower magazine study all over the world, there will be no protest from the members.
