 * In Madventures's third seasons first episode Riku and his colleague Tunna travel to Tabatinga in Brazilian Amazon and have ayahuasca in guidance of a local shaman Don Francisco. "I knew all the time I was searching my subconscious. The most beautiful thing I saw was my own kid born. No actually, she was already two... Pretty tough, pretty intense. The most horrifying experience I could ever imagine to have. Pure hell."


 * "There were millions of visions, millions of thoughts and all those visions and thoughts I could process it all in just from 10 seconds to half a minute and I actually realised how unbelievable the capacity of the brain is...I was caught in a quite unpleasant loop. I was scanning my subconscious and I knew that I was in the depths of my subconscious. It was amazing what kind of things were stored in there from the childhood that I didn't even remember to have forgotten about...I understood that I had to have it so hard because gathering myself up after that was so purifying experience, a sort of catharsis, that I believe that I really needed it and I became much stronger person."
