What does entheogen mean?
The intention of the authors (*) of the term enthegen was to specify limits and stop considering plants as "hallucinogenic or psychedelic" .
It was then considered that generalizing in this way was imprecise. That it was pejorative and showed a complete ignorance of the quality of the experience of the consumption of entheogens and their anthropological significance .
Consciousness state
The entheogen consumer will perceive some modifications in his sensitive perception . At the same time, the interpretation he will make of these perceptions will be changing and will reach varying moods.
This type of sensory modulations will produce quality changes in terms of perception and also in the understanding of past or present situations.
Under the effect of an entheogen the consumer stays awake, immerses his conscience in an experience that will later be very difficult to explain with his usual words.
Levels of consciousness

This alteration of behavior will allow the awakening of the divine consciousness that lies within all human beings. It will give you access to the soul's journey through its various states and possibilities.

Everything will depend exclusively on the mood of the consumer and their intimate and exclusive perception of reality .
Today, the use of entheogenic substances is contemplated in criminal legislation and in international treaties on the use of psychotropics.
However, the cultural and traditional law of certain ethnic groups is recognized and exceptions are made for the application of these laws.

There is no doubt that despite the limitations of this natural technique, it is and has been very useful for many people, since it is a very personal experience for each individual . Despite the laws in force, many have already enjoyed the benefits of an alternative therapy as unknown as it is attractive to many people.
