Chess from the mammoth tusk "Psychedelic"

As you know, chess, in addition to being an exciting game, is nothing more than the most famous way to develop logic and concentration of attention. Thus, we can say that chess is an exaggerated model of the life of an erudite conscious person striving for self-improvement.

But this time, something was introduced into the traditional game that was not yet in it, namely psychedelics. This concept (English psychedelic) comes from the Greek words ψυχη (psyche — mind, consciousness) and δηλειν (delein, "to manifest"). Literally, the term can be translated as "manifesting consciousness."

Psychedelics are a list of substances widely used at all times in most pagan cultures by their priests or shamans (special mushrooms, roots and decoctions, recipes of which have been passed down from generation to generation). Psychedelics, unlike most other psychoactive substances, do not guarantee the achievement of a pre-known state of mind, but cause a shift in the center of consciousness — habitual thinking and perception, making it possible to experience experiences that are usually inaccessible in an unchanged, ordinary state.

It is a truly exotic pleasure to play a game symbolizing common sense and logic, with figures representing images of other, unexplored facets of human consciousness.
