the “analogical psychedelic eternalism” theory of ego transcendence

https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/2020/11/17/glossary-for-the-egodeath-theory/#Names-of-Theories-phrases — ignore ‘analogy’ or ‘metaphor’ titles —
the “eternalism-cybernetics” theory of ego transcendence
Not exactly: Transcendent Knowledge
In full, Transcendent Knowledge includes metaphor; so, Transcendent Knowledge = entire scope of the Egodeath theory, not only the cybernetic theory.

- Metaphor, analogy, entheogen history, rock lyrics (out of scope for the core, the cybernetic theory)
The Entheogen Theory of Religion – the Summary section is relevant, aside from metaphor aspects

CybTrans.com Page with Outline of Topical Pages
CybTrans.com, site title:
Ego Death and Self-Control Cybernetics
The early-1997 CybTrans.com site nav page is a mini version of the 2007 Egodeath.com site: https://web.archive.org/web/19970214094018/http://www.cybtrans.com/philosph/postings.htm
That comprehensive outline page doesn’t link to the main, 1997 theory-spec, below.

To create most of the pages at CybTrans.com, I broke up my huge Word file (often rearranged using Outline view) that contained all my writings in the early-mid 1990s.
The structuring at CybTrans.com represents a topical outline view of my giant idea-development Word file I worked-up from around 1988-1997.
Theory-Spec/Summary:
Ego Death and Self-Control Cybernetics
Here’s a full copy of the 1997 theory-spec that I posted to Principia Cybernetica site, from my February 14, 1997 CybTrans.com site, just days after my early Feb Principia Cybernetica site Comment on the Philosophy article:
https://web.archive.org/web/19970214094005/http://www.cybtrans.com/egodeath/egodeath.htm
including the final section, which was a separate post at PC site:
The Egoic and Transcendent Mental Models and the Rationality of Ego Death
I wrote the article at CybTrans.com, and then copy/pasted to Principia Cybernetica. Strangely, the article is not listed in the main, detailed outline page.
