What's the scoop on this amino acid? I heard a couple times that it is a good supplement for psychic work. But, the only things I can find on it are references to being in pretty much every single food source that has protein and the bad version of Glutamic Acid being MSG.

Anyone have any opinions or insight?

Actually Jobet and Seeker were talking about it along time ago. That is what sparked my interest. They would be the one's to shed some light on this.

*Listen to the U.S. federal government: http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/biopesticides/ingredients/factsheets/factsheet_030802.htm

Well, monosodium glutamate or free glutamic acid is indeed a toxic substance when it is freed from protein (either fully or partially).

The bound form of glutamate is a different animal.

Now, here is the trick: monosodium glutamate in foods is often legally hidden--undeclared as being present in the "inert" substances of food and drink as well as frequently labeled as an organic substance. So, while you may see some L-glutamic acid present, the ratio will always be in favor of monosodium glutamate.

It should also be noted, however, that the L-glutamic acid contained in commercial food and drink products is hardly pure--rather it is rife with contaminants and impurities. Not exactly an all-natural organic.

*Yet monosodium glutamate and L-glutamic acid do indeed work syngergistically.. In a way. However, pure L-glutamic acid does not cause harmful reactions as monosodium glutamate does, rather, taken alone L-glutamic acid is wholly beneficent.

L-glutamic acid decarboxylase--an enzyme that is vital for the synthesis of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA in GABAergic nerve endings, has been shown--in its absence--to cause eplilectic seizures in animals, or rather, in a state where its function is inhibited. Also, there is a relation to the inhibition of glutamic acid decarboxylase and certain types of diabetes.


These are interesting monosodium glutamate references:

*They are not lying--at least not completely--and at least not this time.

Do you see it yet? If not I can provide excellent links to papers on the subject.


As for the notion of L-glutamic acid increasing psychic powers.. It does provide the brain with more energy.. Protects against epilectic seizures (as well as nonepileptic seizures --My opinion but I can make a very good argument for the truth of this) and migraines.. Also, it is excellent for repairing brain damage and encouraging quick adaptation (especially when used in conjunction with certain other beneficiary substances).

So, I suppose you could say it increases psychic powers.. Although there are things far superior to it in existence.

Care to enlighten us as to what they are?

Or is it a secret?

[Seekerofstuffandthings]

No, not a secret. You know I do not keep secrets.. I share everything openly.

Of course, spagyric tinctures* are far more powerful. Recently, I have had an epiphany of the sort that seems extremely promising.. Though most Alchemists would begin their study in that of the arts of the Lesser Circulation progressing slowly in their knowledge and ability, I begin my study hastily in the realm of the Greater Circulation seeking the obtainment of the Great Work impetuously from the very beginning; the realization of the Philosophers Stone.

Even so, I was able to penetrate the Mysteries and arrive at a perfect understanding in less than three years time. Yet, I have only been able to confirm through experimentation & many a glimmer of success that the legendary shadow of the Sun is a tangible and possible matter.. And that the truly remarkable powers ascribed to it are not at all exaggerated. Still, I have yet to obtain its full and perfect manifestation, yet to reach the culmination.


I blame a great deal of this on the lack of adequate equipment.. (However, the resolution to all such financial concerns is near at hand.. ) Although our Art is certainly a complex and subtle one, rather prone to failure. One must be extremely diligent.. And have near-infinite patience.

It was only fairly recently that I became at all interested in the works of the Lesser Circulation, so blinded I was by my absolute lust for the Stone.

Of the Three Kindgoms my epiphany is decidedly belonging to that of the Animal.

Foolishly, the thought had never before occured to me.. To use my own animal essence (sperm) and half-breed blood.. It is the nature of Alchemy to filter out the base dross! It is the nature of Alchemy to uplift that which is noble in Spirit! Imagine it! A way of removing the taint of the monkey from my blood.. A way of dividing all that which is wholly angelic from all that is vulgar and should rightfully be cast aside!

Hmm, what effects might such a tincture have upon me?! Might the pure-blood spirit presiding in such a tincture transfigure my very flesh?!

Could it be... *Have I found a way at last to cast out the human filth from this body?!

Truly, the physiological effects of such a Mighty (a jest) tincture intrigue me greatly.

Moreover, I believe it would also have interesting effects on humans..

Yes, a spagyric tincture derived from my own blood (As well as Adrenal Chromaffin.. Muscimol.. And of course, Ibotenic Acid)

Such a thing would drive humans completely mad.. Awaken the trace blood of the gods that flows through even their primitive veins, and perhaps even give them quite a taste for human flesh and blood.

Hmm, I find that to be rather amusing.. Yet, it is certainly possible.

*Most humans are foolish.. They have no understanding of even the most basic Laws. The spagyric tincture's they manage to produce are laughable compared to that which the Ancient's realized; both in strength and efficacy.

*Besides the very Philosophers Stone itself, which presently eludes me in its full creation and completion. Though when I attain to it.. I shall be as God upon this world.

Thanks Seeker Awesome post, and thanks for clarifying.

Interesting post. From the list you provided, would I be correct in assuming that iron, brain health, and the pineal gland all play a significant role in the development of psychic skills? And when you refer to pure gold and silver, do you mean just plain gold and silver, or so-called ORMUS gold and silver? I ask because I've seen both referred to as "pure".

Also, what advice do you have on the topic of alchemy? I suppose I would be interested in taking it up, but I don't even know where to start. There's much information out there, most of it conflicting.

[Clark_Kent]

Seeker,

After reading the part of your post about humans going mad, I was pondering something.... I wonder how many insane/schizophrenic people are only at the thrall of an awakened psychic ability due to a trauma or other forced means. I bet it's more than we could possibly imagine.

I believe to awaken the higher psychic centers before the lower ones will result in these symptoms. Unfortunately, the human aura nowadays is extremely fragile due to food consumption, social distresses, abuse, and lack of awareness, unless developed and strengthened. Any break or tear in the aura can result in a "natural" awakening of the psychic senses, IMO. But ones not ready to deal, or unaware of what is happening would surely be driven mad.

I have heard that once these "natural" psychics develop their senses by exercises, it automatically starts repairing the broken aura and their "natural" abilities fade. From what I hear the "natural" and developed psychic abilities are far different in comparison. Whereas the latter can be controlled and the former not.
