The supernatural entity who lives within the psychoactive cactus Peyote (Lophophora williamsii). Much discussed by Carlos Castaneda in "The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge". One ingests Mescalito to meet with him. Hopefully he will like you, and give you the gift of his knowledge in the form of visions.

When one takes a natural psychedelic like mescaline, they often come into contact with age-old entities of that realm. With mescaline I find that I become a branch of a living entity, often called "Mescalito," who has existed at least since humans first ingested psychoactive cacti. Mescalito can be viewed as being a conglomeration of the experiences of all mescaline users. It feels as though when taking mescaline I become an "eye" of Mescalito, and that he experiences through me. Mescalito has experienced much during his 3000+ year life time.
