******* The soma plant (which is produced in the body of enlightened people) is also found very rarely on the slopes of the Himalayas (description of the plant's life cycle given in Chopra's first book, "Return of the Rishi"). Amrita was churned up by the gods and is not found on earth except a few drops fell to earth (kumbh mela sites) in the fight between the gods and demons over possession of this nectar of immortality: http://www.hindunet.org/festivals/kumbha_mela/ All other attempts by westerners to say one or the other of these items is marijuana or mushrooms or whatever is just nonsense by people who don't know the Vedic literature. But suit yourself (and I'm sure you will) -- it's less important to know the origin of these substances than it is to actually produce them in one's own nervous system through expanded awareness by regular practice of TM.
