EDIT: i found burundanga IS from datura according to erowid.org. it's an alternate extract. i suppose it's good that i had a babysitter and no bank account worth taking...
Wow mate, that's interesting.
Can you share with us how your trip was like? I hear most people have horrible trips with it, but what did they actually see? What did you see, experienced?
This stuff really is weird..

Apparenlty, datura is a dissociative psychedelic, and you can start experiencing very realistic things during your trip without realizing that what you are seeing isn't there. There's no disconnect, or druggy haze to remind you that it's all in your head.

I was just going to say... Burundanga is Datura.
It's a delierant, as it's active chemical is scopolamine... it's an anticholinergic.
scopolamine has been used medicinally in many applications, and in high concentrations can be fatal. The effects certainly are not sought after, that's for sure.
If you have ever taken high amounts (400mg) of diphenhydramine (aka, benadryl) you'll get just about the same effects. It works on the same part of the brain.
Having done this in my past, I would not recommend it to anyone.

One of my favorite videos, so atmospheric and moody...
Never actually tried a Datura...

Desomorphine is disgusting, but at least you still have free will more or less.
