hardcore absolute rejection of Amanita and full commitment to Psilocybin, in the topic of Christian history, would be 80-100% accurate and highly effective; a winning, cant-lose strategy. It’s much more true than false.
Putting all investment in an extremist Psilocybin theory is good effective strategy, to be immune to the parasitical liabilities that are the heavy strings attached to trying to affirm Amanita.
Given the current deadlock context trap.
Don’t theorize in a Platonic vacuum; messy real world girding affects emphasis positioning –
if you don’t push aggressively your own positioning & your own marketing and product placement and media coverage, the enemy will do it for you.
the enemy here is the default Amanita-drunken, “Maximal Amanita theory” entheogen scholarship Field that Letcher and Hatsis are battling against.
The Default Presupposition Matrix tries to distort and re-define my theory and clamp onto it and aggressive
not just a meaning halo narrow ring clamped around each part, but an entire backdrop context that it tries to attach to my theory to turn my theory into something that’s the opposite of what it is.
This question seems redundant, but the degree is changing.
I am asking even more than February 2021
maybe I have been underestimating the extent to which this field has led by Carl Ruck and the evil M. Hoffman together with Clark Heinrich , author of the book strange fruit, this field especially the Christian aspect christian history – Strange entheogen scholarship
I think even as much critique as I have done, I’m starting to wake up and wonder: have Andy Letcher and Thomas Hatsis been noticing something that I was not appreciating the extent to which –
have Andy Letcher and Thomas Hatsis woken me up to the extreme extent to which the field has been thoroughly corrupted and entirely totally been taken over by the Secret Amanita hypothesis???
How did I not notice the extreme extent of this problem when I picked up in the bookstore Carl Ruck’s book Sacred Mushrooms of the Goddess: Secrets of Eleusis with a pair of amanita drawing proudly on the lower left by the name Carl A. P. Ruck, where “A. P.” stands for Amanita proselyte –
State of the field in 2006:
State of the field 30 years earlier in 1976:
the Result of 30 years of coral rock miss leading the field is that we switch from putting a little amanita on the left to now we put the little amanita on the right
that is the progress that we have made in this imitation , children’s version of the field and entheogen scholarship, in 30 years of his mis- leadership leading us around and around in circles orbiting trapped forever in orbit around planet Amanita where
we mark the years by adding another book on to the pile, driving home yet again the story, the children’s story of secret Amanita
it’s the same book published every year again rolling out more and more demonstrations to lock us in orbit forever around planet Amanita
as I discussed in the Egodeath Mystery Show 5-hour show Easter 2022 last night, it is slowly dawning on me that I didn’t realize how the word Mushrooms and the word Entheogens regarding Christian history has been in the popular mind including the coral rock school a little bit of a sinister twist to Clark Heinrich is good book strange fruit 1994 followed by the deeply disappointing Book written by committee written by Carl rock mixed with a Clark Heinrich mixed with Mark Hoffman Apples of aPaulo December 2000 which was so disappointing that it caused me to create and define the maximal Entheogens Theory of Religion because
I noticed like just like exactly the same as the field of exoteric esotericism we have a field that claims to be positively contributing but which in fact leaves us at the starting line we don’t actually get the airplane off the ground
it is the impression of esotericism without any actual esotericism
it is faux entheogen scholarship
we have pseudo-field of entheogen scholarship
we have a mock imitation discussion of mushrooms and entheogens
just like I have eventually come to realize that fake esotericism books like secret teachings of all ages by Manley Hall 1924 does not actually deliver esotericism but it only delivers the surface impression of esotericism similarly what passes for intelligence scholarship doesn’t actually deliver regarding Christian history in place of substance in place of mental transformation and the loose cognitive state in place of delivering my phrase which I used six years before Valtr Hannah Graff Walther holograph well Walther Hannah Graff Walter Hannah Graff I think voice dictation got his name correct sometimes Walther Hannah Graff
consider my phrase which I used six years before he did and I used it in a scathing way in my yahoo group ego death posting the posting titled esoteric titled entheogenic esotericism and I scathingly condemned pretend week diluted just like his phrase, the worst phrase invented by any scholar ever, “non-drug entheogens”.
non-entheogenic entheogen scholarship
Is what Carl rock brings us and this is the irony of the position which I dubbed ironically in October 2002 “the moderate entheogen position” And I moved forward with what amounts to a two-tier binary system:
either you are “maximal” like me and you answer simply yes Christianity comes from Mushrooms ( read psilocybin) on an ongoing basis,
or else you take the other position which either denies drugs in religion the “minimal” position
or equivalently – that’s the important word is the word ‘equivalently’ – the “moderate” position, which pretends to give us Entheogens, but instead does a bait and switch, and only gives us amanita instead; nothing but mere amanita, which is a children’s make-believe, substitute entheogen.
just like Ken Wilber concept “the Atman project” “substitute” pseudo entheogen, we have substitute pseudo-field and imitation field of entheogen scholarship, represented by amanita emoji 🍄
The Atman project: pursuing transcendence by means (🍄) which prevent it
we have exact equivalent between exoteric esotericism and Hannahgraf’s “non-drug entheogen’s “
for all practical purposes which Carl Ruck delivers together with the evil M. Hoffman and Clark Heinrich – instead of strange fruit, we have strange entheogen scholarship.
Ruck school never delivers the goods, but only halts and brings us to a halt at children’s level: ineffectual alcohol wine and ineffective Amanita and deliriant scopolamine , the purpose being to withhold the real deal, to withhold the good stuff, and to pretend as if a head shop display of amanita literally means ingesting that,
when people talk about so called magic mushrooms when the reality is that absolutely no one ingests Amanita
and Amanita in the head shops functions 100% purely as an artistic representation of psilocybin and
our great grandfather’s are exactly the same
the reason they depict Amanita is because as the forward of the book by Poulter Stamets says Andrew Weil writes in the foreground of Paul Stamets book and identify identification guide Psilocybin Mushrooms of the world he writes that psilocybin is a “dull” looking mushroom type
so nature gives us two very different mushrooms: Amanita which is good looking, and
everyone who understands Mushrooms knows that amanita has low effectiveness
the other kind of magic mushrooms (as everybody with Mushroom Knowledge Knows) inherent in the Mushrooms themselves the “dull looking” mushrooms are the good kind to ingest and
our great grandfather who drew branching-message mushroom trees knew this perfectly well, because he had real knowledge of mushrooms, and so he knew the amanita is pretty for art, but poor for ingesting.
this is inherent in the mushroom itself; this is not ESP.
we do not need ESP; we need to know that the artist had knowledge of mushrooms
like any hi school students in the head shop knows intuitively and perfectly well that amanita is good for visual representation of magic mushrooms, but poor for ingesting.
The cautionary myth tale, the Amanita eaters: Odysseus and his men forgetting their mission
easter episode of Egodeath Mystery Show part A 42:00 , 52:00 describes the story of Odysseus and the Lotus eaters (the amanita eaters) of how we’ve been trapped in orbit forever around planet Amanita and
Letcher and Hatsis have tried to warn us about and I failed to appreciate the extent to which the field has been completely taken over by 🍄
I did not realize how the field had been completely taken over by amanita even though I’ve been writing harshly Against Amanita
Letcher and Hatsis Clearly perceived The degree of that take over
and I was too grounded and I was too attuned to clear thinking; I was not able to appreciate how warped and corrupted that the popular thinking is , how completely dominated it is by amanita
I did not appreciate, but now I can understand the insanity of Andy Letcher and Thomas Hatsis , who say this whole entrapment in planet Amanita orbiting forever and
their solution is the burn it all down scorched earth –
We had to destroy the field of mushroom Scholarship Christian History in order to save it from the Amanita madness that has steered it into a dead-end ditch, thanks to the coral rock paradigm of the Moderate Entheogens Theory, which amounts to exoteric esotericism
the Atman project: pursuing entheogen scholarship in a way (🍄) which prevents it.
thus we have the irony of a binary two-part Egodeath Theory
there are two positions regarding entheogens: the maximal position versus the minimal position ( which also includes the moderate position)
but the catch is that the moderate position is merely children’s version of mock lesser Mysteries
we have the children’s class in Visionary plants
see the cover of the book a golden guide hallucinogenic plants by Richard Evans Schultes.
we have been trapped in a children’s book version of the entheogen field 🍄
the Witches team, Letcher Hatsis, they are half awakened to the reality, and they are trying to wake other people up to break out of their imprisonment in the coral rock Amanita trap, where Ruck has conflated the word ‘Entheogens’ with the word ‘Mushrooms’ with Amanita.
I cannot believe it, I am amazed to realize:
why didn’t it register when I rejected Rucks book and I did not buy his book which pull-quotes me –
where I said that “mixed wine is mushroom wine”, I did not realize that my words were being abused/ misinterpreted to assert, per the front cover picture children’s picture kiddie picture Amanita, that Carl Ruck was interpreting my words, as if I had said “mixed wine is Amanita”! 😠👎
I never ever intended to assert that “mixed wine is amanita wine”, and I was at fault by carelessly using the vague word ‘mushrooms’ (Comparable to how I naïvely used the word ‘Determinism’ in 2006 instead of the unambiguous word ‘eternalism’) because
back then in 2006, I did not make an effort to distinguish between mushrooms versus Amanita versus Psilocybin.
i in fact held a too weak distinction between them, I only weakly held my distinction between Amanita vs Psilocybin.
and so my words got misinterpreted and misrepresented as if I had asserted that the ancient banqueting tradition “rounds of mixed wine” used amanita – which is certainly not something I would have ever asserted! 😠
Robert Graves was getting too close to the truth when he discovered Mushrooms in Greek myth in 1957, so Wasson did not credit graves for his discoveries, and tried to steer a new field: “ethno-mycology”, to prevent comprehension of Christian Psilocybin
I work out and talk through this reconstruction of the history of this field in the Easter episode of yesterday Egodeath Mystery Show part A ~1:05:00 April 7 2022 episode 119a.
