To the magazine interview, Mike Tyson reported that this is a type of substance widely used for spiritual medicine. He discovered the drug seven years ago and reported that it is “like meeting God.”

“You find a frog, collect its secretion, apply it to something like a mirror, and it hardens. Then you rub it into a fine powder and smoke it. Then you find God. And that’s how God told me to go back [ao boxe]”.

Since it is a hallucinogenic substance, Mike Tyson he stated that he uses it only for religious purposes and that his sessions are always supervised by a shaman. “I felt like I was nothing, but I am everything.”

When asked what motivated him to try the “spiritual drug”, he said he was in a “difficult phase”.

“I was scared to death because I had a spiritual death. And after going through this process, I realized that dying is a beautiful thing. How can death be bad if life is beautiful? It’s good to be scared, because you realize that and there is nothing to fear. This is what the frog means: to die with dignity and not be afraid of dying.”

The marketing of the drug is something that the legendary boxer sees as very far from current reality. “They don’t want it to be beautiful because we would have a totally different perspective on life. Maybe everyone would start loving each other. And we don’t want that, do we?”

This was stated by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), consulted by the magazine Interviewthe substance is, in reality, the secretion of Bufo alvarius, a frog native to the United States and Mexico. This secretion contains a high dose of 5-MeO-DMT, a substance known to induce altered states of consciousness and traditionally used in shamanic rituals.
