		<description><![CDATA[With a compelling headline of cardboard box, cement ... or dignified backpack. The Swag may yet take on .. and at least serve to create some temporary comfort zone. The statistics for homeless people are staggering, and as we draw closer to the holiday season perhaps we can all spare buying those expensive and futile gifts and give to people who really need it.

		<description><![CDATA[In the early 1990s, Dr. Rick Strassman conducted the first government- sanctioned, human psychedelic research with DMT. Dr. Strassman's  research serves as the narrative backbone for The Spirit Molecule. A  documentary described as a psychedelic Baraka meets What the Bleep do  We Know, the film presents an intriguing discourse on the science of  the soul, and will undoubtedly open Pandora's Box. By challenging  current misconceptions about this class of compounds, The Spirit  Molecule unravels fascinating parallels in neurology, quantum physics  and human spirituality.
