I'm not certain why so many people are afraid of salvia. In my social community, most people try it before cannabis.

Salvia has many forms though. It's just a leaf that was originally chewed by indigenous peoples for a mild body high. In today's shops, you can buy that salvia, or extracts of the active ingredients in a black powder or sometimes even reprocessed into the leaf. (Is the chemical salvinorum? I forget the name and don't care to look it up. Maybe I'm just combining salvia and divinorum.)

Anyway, salvia smoked the contemporary way, with a butane torch and 20x extract, produces an intense world-melting experience. It's like an acid trip contained within 2 minutes, and you feel hot and sweaty. I've done salvia over 30 times, experimenting with different extracts and ingesting methods.
After the 2 minute hallucination, you come down quickly over another 5 minutes, and are back to normal in a full 30.

Salvia vaporized over a 20 minute period produced a very cannabis-like high. It was so different from smoking salvia at the prerequisite high temperatures, but very peaceful. However, all it did was make my friend uncomfortable, hot, and sweaty.

That being said, I think salvia is more a novelty than a serious drug. If DMT is considered the businessman's trip, what is salvia? You could be done and back to work within 15 minutes. With a sitter, the drug is incredible.

However, I've noticed salvia is EXTREMELY unspiritual. You won't decode the cosmos on salvia. It's too short of an experience. Most of my friends go on magic carpet rides to Egypt, or see 6 dimensions. Every time I've done it, everyone turns into a cartoon.

Thus salvia is more of a fun little novelty than anything serious. Again, with a sitter, all is well.
