Today, Dr. Kelly interviews Filip Zaruba, director of Bufo Alvarius: The Underground Secret. We discuss 5-MEO-DMT, considered one of the strongest and most intense psychedelics ever discovered. We discuss Filip's experiences with the medicine, the making of the documentary and its impacts, as well as its implication for its healing potentials and future research.

 

A radical testimony of the strongest known natural psychedelic, tryptamine 5-MeO-DMT produced by Bufo Alvarius, a toad of the Sonoran desert. The breathtaking audio-visual adventure is enhanced by immersive animations inspired by the psychoactive effects of this extraordinary substance. Fascinating stories of a group of Czech psychonauts are combined with personal insights of Stanislav Grof, a nestor of transpersonal psychology, and Octavio Rettig, a modern shaman who has facilitated ceremonial contact with Bufo Alvarius for thousands of volunteers from around the world. For many, the experience has been life-changing. Originally intended to simply document these experiences, the film evolved into an intense meditation on the nature of consciousness and being.
