- In the tombs that ancient Egyptians prepared for their deaths, they left a record of how they lived more than 3000 years ago, today. But the full meaning of many of the images remains a mystery. In almost every Egyptian tome one image stands out; the blue lotus.

Interesting, but a botanist would mention the fact that a plant grown in England could be VERY DIFFERENT than the same plant grown in Egypt. Lavender is an excellent example. Lavandula angustifolia grown in France is quite different from same plant grown in say...USA. Chemical constituents, scent of oil, all quite different. The soil & other growing mediums do affect the plant.
Excellent point.
Does that mean that certain plants in certain areas will get somebody loaded?
I think the Egyptian blue lotus was imported from India
@@eightness888 yup like the variety in mushrooms (fungi not plants of course, similar phenomena) the chemical properties can vary across varieties of the same organism.
Again, imported from another place and subsequently grown in Egypt creates the possibility that one or other could be STRONGER.
Nymphaea Caerulea commonly known as Egyptian blue water lilly. These stunning Lilly's were commonly found growing on the banks of the river Nile. To the Egyptians it symbolised life, immortality, and rebirth.
The Egyptians saw that the blue water lilly opened up each morning showing off it's intense golden center along with its blue pedals symbolizing the sky and Each afternoon, they would close again only to open again each day. The Egyptians believed the flower was strongly associated with the rising and setting sun and thus to the sun god Ra and the story of creation. The religious significance of the flower was great thus the sacred lilly could be found throughout ancient Egypt it was adorned on tomb walls and on sacred carvings it was even found within the sarcophaguses of Pharaoh's such as Tutankhamun.
Egyptians extracted the lilly into fine wine isolating the two main compounds
apomorphine and nuciferine These alkaloids were responsible for the flower’s psychoactive and medicinal effects. The effects of the lotus wine are said to act as a slight sedative. Its presence felt through the crown chakra allowing for deeper insight and creativity accompanied by slight euphoria and relaxation. It is also said to act as an aphrodisiac.
I’ve smoked and drank blue lotus supposed to be hypnagogic but I just got a elongated skull for more than 8 hours and started trying to build a pyramid
😂😂😂 You’re funnny!!!
Keep doing it and you will end up with your own pyramid!
Been there, was a bit wobbly too
😄
😂😂
Substances like psychedelics when administered temporarily and in the minimum and safe dose can save life (prevent suicide), yet..long term all of them are NOT the answer (solution to the problem). self honesty, emotional and spiritual healing (done correctly) produce safe and lasting results..health happiness, inner peace
I’ve been researching on psychedelics and it’s benefits to individuals dealing with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD and from my findings, they really work and I’ve been eager to get some for a while but its been difficult to get my hands on them.
The Trips I've been having really helped me a lot. I’m now able to meditate and I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
I was having this constant, unbearable anxiety due to work stress. Not until I came across a very intelligent mycologist. He saved my life honestly
His name is *DR Adolf Petter*
@ohmakure4716
I feel the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels. I am also glad to be a part of this community.
Mixing an upper with an alcohol. We never change 😂
😂😂😂😂
I’ve been looking deep into blue lotus and no one seems to have any intense effects from them. I took lotus for months and they once caused the most intense dream I have ever experienced. I had about 5 dreams that I can recall back to back and then woke up inside my dream like 6+ times. I was told I was trapped in the dream and would never come back. This experience was a year ago, I still take lotus and have not experience this since. It was so traumatic, yet one is the most profound things I’ve ever experienced. Sometimes I wonder if I ever woke up.
dry herb vaporizer.
Yeah blue lotus is one of the gateway Astral/Spirt Drugs For the body to Expirence and control the dreams During rem state Thats how alot of Egyptians got technology from astral projecting and talking to higher conciseness on the astral relm its true the plant can basically create a sandbox in your mind
You haven't
@@ivandeleon8969 this was my matrix dream. And when my teacher told me in the dream that never come back I had a mental breakdown and started crying and begging to come back, I believe I took the blue pill and returned. This dream was so crazy that it was like watching a whole tv show in one night. Some parts I was experiencing as if I was a third person like in gta 5 and other parts felt almost like I was reading and seeing them in a comic book!
This was really interesting!
5:23 I had no idea that Playboy and Penthouse Magazines were published all the way back during the Ancient Egyptian Empire!
Blue Lotus Essential oil is one of my absolute Favorites!! No surprise it was so important to them. Great video!! Thanks !!🌈💙
FASCINATING!🔹💠💮💠🔹
I love this flower so much I named my company after it💠
I hate how we group all drugs in one category as just “drugs” like weed and meth are in the same category
Not sure why you are saying “we” when there is a clear indication by official institutions that drugs have multiple categories - not just one
@@villiamm4535 talking mostly about laymens
I wish they would start making these monuments again since they did it before
What about it being a hallucinogen? Seems like that would be one of the main things you would say about it.
Yes soldiers use it and go to ER all the time when they over do it. They go from euphoria to having a bad trip pretty quickly when they smoke it.. but it's not harmful
It is NOT a hallucinogen. What soldiers? Where?
I use the blue lotus in ceremony. I make a tea from the flowers
@@geminilove4682 it is
I smoked a bunch and got nothin.
Facts about lotus' is located in the ancient Vedic literatures...very special flower
Does anyone know how you test for mushrooms or ayahuasca with the technology we have now?
24:00 thank you very much😂 do i look like i need it😂😂😂
The Egyptian blue lilly spices is known as Nymphaea caerulea it is not hard to find. It has sedative qualities and heightens spiritual awareness is best when extracted in red wine it contains aporphine alkaloids (apomorphine and nuciferine)
Did the ancient Egyptians practice circumcision? The stone phallic was shaped like it had been circumsized.
@@synthia8703 would like to point out when erected - the foreskin can disappear as it retracts 😅
Apomorphine is known to treat diseases such as depression, schizophrenia, Parkison's disease and erectile dysfunction. Nuciferine is used as an antipsychotic and in treatment of alcohol use disorder.

Why aren’t we digging up nobility in Scotland, Ireland and England?
I’m with you. Graves of English nobility should be dug up, phalluses photographed, bodies displayed on tv, private sex life … when will we see that on prime time??
the egyptians are far more ancient thousands of years old
Fascinating. The ancient Egyptians weren't so different from us.
Wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The pollen gives an immediate sensation when sniffing the flower
Good morning everyone
Blue lotus helps me have dreams and recover from migraines.
Can you explain how you use it for migraine? I have some and it's difficult to find good info
@@karriebouissey8775 I find a dose of it in tea, or extract helps calm my migraines. Either use the dried herb as a tea, or a dropper of extract
The fact that some people feel the need to desecrate our ancestor's graves are just UNF#%KING BELIEVABLE!!!!
Blue lily enhances magic abilities in rituals

And I have absolutely no problem with that.
@@mariakelly90210 yup. Hands down the best I have seen in the subject
Are they related to gingko bologna?
The narrator is sooo negative. They found “one” mummy of an elderly lady and “assumed” to know what “all” Egyptian life was like. He was particularly bent on proving they stayed high off the Lotus and this proved to not be true. It was NOT a hallucinogen. This elderly lady developed diseases and died , that doesn’t mean the whole population had this disease and in fact they found evidence that she was treated with medicines to help this. But the narrator “assumed” that they were too primitive to have such a medicine.
When the narrator passes away I hope his mummy critic is more kind.
Apparently you need to get a fresh flower and sniff it. I just bought some dried blue Lotus and it makes you very sleepy and calm.
Did it relieve pain?
Does this plant still exist?
Pupil dilation differs when taking a stimulate versus a narcotic.
Too many ads makes it unwatchable. I understand the practical need for advertising revenue to make the platform profitable, but NOTHING is worth watching that doesn't get more than a few words in before interruptions.
Its also a great sleep aid. Just make sure you understand the spiritual factors in play whenever you use psychoactive herbs, because there is a fine line between medicine and witchcraft. (Im assuming a good number of you are spiritually awake, but sadly, many are still not . Ive got a few playlists on my channel to help seekers in their development...)
Christianity just like every other religion comes from magick practice
I have consumed blue lotus in a few different ways if it is narcotic I did not feel anything
I've enjoyed smoking blue lotus, you have to smoke the stamen and center part, its effect lasts about half an hour and makes you feel slightly elated and chatty. Drinking concentrated blue lotus in wine made me feel seriously drunk
Do Egyptians still use the lotus plant? Does it cure any diseases?
if you know the cursed reality of egyptian medical practices, I would guess.... no
It is so strange how they trying to uncover things that we have already accomplished why? Remember who you are
I tried blue lotus tea as a chaser for 4 shots of vodka,i had a vietnom flashback i was born 8n 1983 i wasnt born then it was strange
I think it’s unfair to classify that time period as suffering from an epidemic judging from this one mummified corpse.
The idea is, she was a rich, privileged member of that society. If she had bilharzia, some farmer didn't stand a chance.
haha yes very unscientific and biased!!
Do we have lotus plants here in the states?
Its available on etsy. Not live tho. Dried. I smoke it on occasion. Its perfect
Does it help with any maladies that we suffer from today?
Period cramps
These people didn't build the structures they squatted on existing ones and added hieroglyphs at a much later time.
I agree completely with you.
The Aztecs also claimed to have found their structures
Why “squatted”.? Whose land are you squatting on?
Based on who's account. They showed you who they were believe them.
Lmao 🤣 lol does that make you feel superior 😂 by thinking that way
egyptians were high of their mind. drugs moved humanity forward
The original blue chew 🫡
All deities sitting on lotuses, can’t believe scientists understand louse flower as sex , rebirth 😢
Soma. ?
Does the blue lotus have different properties then other lotus plants?
They smell like bananas? Wow. I’m in!
Do they use lotus plants for modern medicine?
I'm surprised they are acting like this is new info... We already know the effects of the plant.
she said that thang was huge
What’s in the lotus?
Why not just do some to see why ancient Egyptians would use it? Sometimes science doesn’t need to be that hard. 😅
Legit. The sudden boner and potential ecstasy would have given them faster results. Do a control test without alcohol and one with and there you go. Science.
I wonder if they checked all parts of the plants for different properties or if the Egyptians processed it in a way to make it psychedelic as I've read it had properties of
According to the readings I’ve found, soaking the flowers in wine is what “activates” or brings out the hallucinogenic properties
😍😍🤩🤩
It's almost impossible to find real blue lotis since everyone sells some shit that looks like blue lotus but isn't actually blue lotus
Has anybody tested the lotus plant?
I drank blue lotus tea for weeks during a period where I was practicing a lot of breath work, and meditation 3-5 hours long. As well as listening to binaural sounds. I achieved hemisync with my brain and experienced full on DMT beings. Really wild. I wouldn’t recommend it.
I'm sorry but if you can meditate for 5 hours long a day, you have too much time on your hands.
@@justXsmokeXtrees it was always late at night. I thought it was maybe an hour but time dilated and it was 3-5 hours depending on what night I did it. You should try it out. Quieting your mind and consciousness is a good practice in my opinion
I only drank a glass of wine and burned some blue lotus incense and went to sleep and Dionysus god of wine spoke to me in my dreams. I don't remember what he said, but he said he was Dionysus and we had a conversation.
@@greendragn Cool. I’ve never burned it. Only drank the tea
Tell me more
Ancient peoples knew how to party with herbs cacti's and fungai
They should soak it in wine and test it and drink it!
Stimulates blood flow. Like viagra that’s interesting
Imma blue lotus aphrodisiac. 😁🖤😊🍻🍺
Has anyone ever tried it? I’m eager to try it
I’m a big fan of it. It’s nice to smoke.
@@src3046 yeah I want to try it it’s ancient egyptians and Buddhism and Hindoism what does it make you feel like?
Yes!! Blue lotus is one of the ingredients in my organic India supplement Along with Ashwagganda. I noticed that Blue lotus can help one to be more present in The Moment. It's great if one practices meditation or likes to ponder and Contemplate. It's a more Spiritual Flower . Many people think it gets you high but I wouldn't call the blue lotus effect a high. It just helps you to be more Present in The Now. Also I noticed how after taking Blue Lotus, when it starts to take effect, the colors look more Vivid and brighter. I was staring at a tree and it was so so green. And the sky and mountains looked more Alive in color. It's like having HD Vision. But other than that, it's very mild. Also I didn't notice any dream changes.
@@andrewortiz5797 cool thanks for sharing do you where I can get?
consumption safe lotus leaf is available in tea bulk (sometimes hard to trace pesticides etc tho fair warning if ur not growing it personally)
I want to know about the leafs that float on the water. Their hydrophobicicty is second to none.
Is it a lotus flower or a blue water lilly? Someone help explain
I doubt any lotus you eat today is the blue lotus of the Egyptians. Fascinating culture. Still so much to teach humanity. Thousands of years before their time!
It's a lily, not a lotus. Let's start there.
It's not a lily, but a a lotus. Water lily is just a common name. Its botanical name is Lotus Nucifera.
African botony is amazing
Don't forget about the cocaine that was imported from SA.....
Lotus (Blue) explained;
The (3 parts) of the lotus symbol represent Sun-Sunlight causes gravity and All matter is Positive and Negative charges.
Left-side - Positive charge
Middle - Sun-Sunlight
Right-side - Negative charge
Universe flows from Positive to negative from the Sun to the planet (Dust, Dirt, Stone) is a negative charge. All Terrans understand this and are taught in school I am J.Terran the only Terran to be born on Eden/Earth 53 years old.
It seems to me promotion of circulation is all you need to justify placing it in tombs dedicated to life. Making it sexy is just clickbait.
She didn't look like that either at all.
I'm tired of them lying! That woman is black😂 she'd turn over in her grave if she wasn't stolen from it🙊👁👄👁
Was it just a religious symbol?
Want to like, but can't ruin the ♋
The video was great until they unveiled the rendering of the mummy 😒 like I know she did not look like a Caucasian/Neanderthal
😂😂😂
Noahs ark was the ikon. The lotus was an analogy of the floating zoo. The ark is the first idol, the image of a starving man in a trance is noah, waiting for the sun to return,(enlightenment) for the trance to end.The petals of the lily resemble the hull of the watercraft, the roots symbolise the drogue stones which were draped over there covering of the ark. The ark is found in all post babel cultures represented by dolmens, barrows kufon, pagodas, the inverted boat hull can be seen in cathedrals, onion domes etc. Since the ark was a tomb and a womb, the arc of the hull resembling the female form. The ark contained all land and air creatures.
My ass too has a pyramid shape, this is a supplementary clue.
Purple Lotus. Majority of pictures it looks purple.
Is lotus really an aphrodisiac?
I wonder what present-day Egyptians make of the Western fascination with their ancient past.
Reg. the blue lotus, I don't think it has to be effective to gain symbolic significance. I seriously doubt most people in Ancient Egypt were living long enough to worry about blood flow. I believe the flower just happens to occupy a particular space in their system of signs and symbols, and its rarity and beauty may have more to do with being placed in that role than the efficacy of its bioflavonoids.
Blue lotus doesn't get you high. Its not that kind of substance. Blue Lotus helps one to be more Present in The Moment!! So I can see how it's great for meditation and contemplation. And the colors look more vivid or brighter. It's like having HD Vision. I never experienced any hallucinations or visuals or any kind of high. Like I said, it's not a high. As for dreaming, i Haven't noticed a different in my dreams. Also it raises my semen volume so that I ejaculate alot of semen. Blue lotus is supposed to be an aphrodisiac. I take a supplement that has blue lotus that's combined with Ashwagganda and rama Tulsi.
To much information dude.
