<\/figure>\n\n\n\nKdo je bil Albert Hofmann?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Albert Hofmann je bil \u0161vicarski kemik, ki je najbolj znan kot \"o\u010de\" dietilamida lizergi\u010dne kisline, ki sama .<\/em> je najbolj znan kot LSD. Opravil je prelomno delo na podro\u010dju lastnosti LSD-ja in drugih psihedelikov, kot so psilocibin<\/a> iz \u010darobnih gob. Njegove raziskave so prispevale k razumevanju \u010dlove\u0161ke zavesti ter vplivale na podro\u010dja nevroznanosti, farmakologije in psihologije. Bila je tudi katalizator svetovnega zanimanja za psihedelike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Lysergic acid diethylamide, is a psychedelic substance synthesized from a fungus called ergot<\/a>. It is renowned for its ability to cause profound changes in perception, thought patterns, and mood. It is categorized as a hallucinogen<\/a> due to the trippy visual effects it can induce. However, these effects can vary based on dosage, setting, and the individual user.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ergot is a type of fungus that grows on grains such as rye. Its effects, both medicinal and toxic, have been zabele\u017eeni v zgodovini.<\/a>. Ergot alkaloids harbor potent psychoactive and vasoconstrictive properties, which is the reason that the fungus has been both utilized and feared since time immemorial. These compounds occur naturally within the fungus.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s first recorded use is from the Middle Ages, but there are numerous hints of its use in earlier history, such as the suggestion that ergot was part of the secret psychoactive concoction kykeon <\/em>ki so ga stari Grki pili med Eleuzinske skrivnosti<\/a>. However, more often than not, ergot was accidentally ingested, as it grew on grains used to make bread \u2014 a staple food throughout much of human history. This could cause symptoms ranging from nausea, to gangrene, to death.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Albert Hofmann was busy studying the medicinal potential of these ergot alkaloids when he first synthesized LSD in 1938. He had been tasked by Sandoz Laboratories in Switzerland to develop a stimulant for respiration and circulation. Although on first discovery LSD was not considered significant, Hofmann had a funny feeling that there was something special about the compound, which encouraged him to return to the substance in 1943. This led to the now-celebrated events of Bicycle Day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n LSD users report experiencing changes in their perception of time, space, and logic, as well as visual and auditory hallucinations. They also experience heightened emotional sensitivity, euphoria, and introspection, sometimes leading to spiritual revelation. The effects of LSD, or the \u2018trip\u2019, can last from 6 to 12 hours, depending on various factors, such as dosage.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n LSD became synonymous with the counterculture movement of the 1960s and 1970s, its reach extending to music, fashion, art, as well as political and societal change. After being outlawed for many years, research into its benefits is back on track with studies showing that it has the potential to treat a wide-range of mental health conditions. These include depression, PTSD and anxiety.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, why Bicycle Day? Why not \u2018LSD Day\u2019? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, with LSD up until pretty recently being designated ‘dangerous’, not to mention illegal by the powers-that-be, that title probably wouldn\u2019t have flown. So, to get past the censors, Bicycle Day cleverly refers to Hofmann\u2019s iconic bike ride he took after ingesting LSD on April 19th, 1943. It started off as a bit of a codename \u2014 if you poznati <\/em>potem ste poznati <\/em>????. <\/em>Ne smemo ga zamenjati s svetovnim dnevom koles, ki je vsako leto 3. junija.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n But what was so special about this infamous bike ride?<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, on April 19th, 1943 Hofmann decided to ingest 250 micrograms of LSD, having accidentally felt the effects while fiddling about with the substance a few days earlier. April 19th is observed, rather than the date a few days earlier (16. april)<\/em>, saj je bil LSD prvi\u010d uporabljen a namenoma.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Po zau\u017eitju LSD (and not yet knowing that 250 micrograms is a very high dose!) <\/em>Hofmann began to feel the effects quickly \u2014 within 40 minutes.\u00a0 Thus began an unprecedented psychedelic journey. The great Albert Hofmann was first to feel the profound effects of LSD that would change the world forever.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Later, Hofmann would describe experiencing extreme visual distortions, intense colors, and high levels of anxiety. By this point, he knew he had to return home as soon as possible. However, as it was still wartime, no cars were allowed on the road, so the humble bicycle was his only option. Accompanied by his lab assistant, Hofmann hopped onto his bike, and Bicycle Day began!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hofmann je med vo\u017enjo do\u017eivljal mo\u010dne psihedeli\u010dne u\u010dinke. Njegovo dojemanje sveta je bilo bistveno spremenjeno, kot da bi bila njegova zavest lo\u010dena od telesa. Poro\u010dal je o ob\u010dutku, kot da lebdi nad tlemi. Vse, kar je videl, se je spreminjalo, barve in oblike so se pred njim premikale in utripale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite this sensorial overload, Hofmann managed to get home, encouraged by the simple familiarity of riding his bike. The journey took around two hours, and once home, Hofmann sought help from a doctor. Being the patient zero of LSD, he could have no idea whether what he was feeling was a threat to his life, or just a hallucination. After being reassured that his vitals were normal (razen raz\u0161irjenih zenic in o\u010ditne zmedenosti) <\/em>he was able to relax, and lean in, to what he was experiencing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the effects of the drug wore off, Hofmann began to realize LSD\u2019s potential as a tool to explore consciousness and enhance the human experience. He felt a deep sense of connection to the world, and a profound gratitude and appreciation for his existence. He believed this wonder could be used for great things. In an interview by Marlene Dobkin de Rios in 1996 Hofmann explained;<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"Z izku\u0161njo LSD in novo predstavo o resni\u010dnosti sem se zavedel \u010dudovitosti stvarstva, veli\u010dastnosti narave ter \u017eivalskega in rastlinskega kraljestva. Postal sem zelo ob\u010dutljiv za to, kaj se bo zgodilo z vsem tem in z vsemi nami.\"<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hofmannovo pogumno raziskovanje neznanega se uvr\u0161\u010da v veliko linijo znanstvenikov in raziskovalcev, ki so eksperimentirali na sebi. Njegova izku\u0161nja je postavila temelje za novo obdobje raziskav, ki so vplivale na vsa podro\u010dja kulture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dan kolesarjenja je leta 1985 uvedel profesor na univerzi Northern Illinois, Dr. Thomas B. Roberts. Dan kolesarjenja je bil za\u010detni dogodek, ki je z leti pridobil na priljubljenosti. Postal je zato\u010di\u0161\u010de za \u0161irok krog ljudi, ki jih zanimajo psihedeliki, raziskovanje uma, reforma politike na podro\u010dju drog in drugo. Danes praznovanja potekajo po vsem svetu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dan kolesa je prilo\u017enost za praznovanje zapu\u0161\u010dine Alberta Hofmanna ter bogate zgodovine in razburljive prihodnosti LSD in psihedelikov na splo\u0161no. To lahko poteka v razli\u010dnih oblikah - od udele\u017ebe na zabavah do u\u010denja o zgodovini psihedelikov. Tukaj je nekaj idej za vas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Poi\u0161\u010dite dogodke ob dnevu kolesarjenja v svojem kraju. Prirejajo jih \u0161tevilna mesta in skupnosti, lahko pa vklju\u010dujejo skupinske kolesarske vo\u017enje, panelne razprave, pogovore, umetni\u0161ke postavitve ali razstave ter filmske projekcije. Na teh dogodkih lahko spoznate skupnost podobno psihedeli\u010dno usmerjenih ljudi. Poleg tega \u0161irijo zavest o tem, da so psihedeliki vedno bolj zanimivo podro\u010dje za mnoge ljudi in da je pomembno nadaljevati raziskave o njih. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Povabite prijatelje in organizirajte svoj mali \u0161iht za praznovanje dneva kolesarjev. Lahko si ogledate psihedeli\u010dni film ali dokumentarec o zgodovini LSD-ja ali magi\u010dnih gobic. Lahko organizirate majhno plesno zabavo ob klasi\u010dni psihedeli\u010dni glasbi. Poskrbite, da boste vklju\u010dili nekaj izvirnih Woodstock<\/a> sestava na va\u0161em seznamu predvajanja!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Naredite to, \u010desar Hofmann ni mogel, in pojdite na prijetno <\/em>bike ride. Ideally somewhere with some pretty scenery \u2014 this year Bicycle Day falls on a sunny spring Saturday after all! Pack a picnic and cycle to a nature spot. Eat your favorite foods \u2014 you certainly don\u2019t need to guzzle milk as Hofmann reportedly did during his first Bicycle Day trip! Just enjoy the nature around you. As Hofmann implored;<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"Pojdite na travnike, na vrt, v gozd. Odprite o\u010di!\"<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Nekateri se odlo\u010dijo, da bodo ravnali tako kot Hofmann in se sami podali na psihedeli\u010dno potovanje. Kak\u0161en bolj\u0161i na\u010din bi lahko bil? \u010carobne gobe in tartufi so povsem naravni in imajo podobne psihedeli\u010dne u\u010dinke kot LSD. Sledite na\u0161im Vodnik po potovanjih<\/a> za vse, kar morate vedeti.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Psihedeliki odpirajo um in nas ohranjajo radovedne. Zakaj ne bi ta dan pre\u017eiveli ob spoznavanju preteklosti in prihodnosti preu\u010devanja psihedelikov? Eden najbolj\u0161ih na\u010dinov za boj proti napa\u010dnim informacijam o psihedelikih je izobra\u017eevanje. Razi\u0161\u010dite znanost, zgodovino in koristi psihedelikov ter jih delite s prijatelji in dru\u017eino. Na\u0161a spletna stran arhiv bloga<\/a> ni slab za\u010detek! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Zakaj ne bi darovali neprofitni organizaciji, kot je Fundacija Beckley<\/a> ali Multidisciplinarno zdru\u017eenje za psihedeli\u010dne \u0161tudije (ZEMLJEVIDI<\/a>)? <\/em>Na ta na\u010din neposredno podpirate razvoj raziskav psihedelikov in pozitivne spremembe, ki jih lahko prinesejo v svet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This Bicycle Day, whether you trip, cycle, or simply marvel at the ingenuity of human curiosity, you are sure to have a wonderful time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bicycle Day is a fixture in the calendar of any psychedelics fan.
