Non-Motivation of this Page

Dec. 1, 2025 – published this utility page by accident. Draft started August 2025.
Before that, to upload images from mobile device, I used the following page which I started, then thought too negative, then eventually published:

Huggins’ Inane Argument: Great Canterbury Psalter Day 3 Can’t Be Mushroom, b/c Has Branches – That Exactly Match Cubensis 🤦♂️
This is infinitely weak of an argument, just like every argument from the deniers of mushroom imagery in Christian art, but they try to make up for it in quantity.
An infinite number of worthless arguments.

Foraging for Psychedelic Mushrooms in the Wrong Forest: The Great Canterbury Psalter as a Medieval Test Case

Screengrab of top of “Conclusion” section of article: soak-in the badness of arg’n:

“noted” = censored by the lying, bully, academic obstructionist & fraud Wasson, banker for the Pope; world’s record for maximum Conflict of Interest.
The “Conclusion” section’s argumentation backfires left and right:
Mycologists (affirmers of mushroom imagery in Christian art) must trust the art authorities (deniers of mushroom imagery in Christian art) because:
The art authorities never wrote anything about trees, which are unimportant and merely peripheral (argues Huggins)
The art authorities never wrote anything about mushrooms, because Christians have no reason to think about mushrooms (argues Panofsky via Wasson).
The art authories are expert in related matters (ie, are NOT expert, in fact are utterly ignorant, on THIS topic). – Wasson’s gaslighting phrasing.
The censored – I mean, “noted” – exception, the lone exception, is a flimsy, thin, old book, which doesn’t say what Panofsky claims it says, and only mentions pilzbaum a few times, before knowledge of psychedelic mushrooms.
Even if the book were to claim what Panofsky says (over time, the images shift from umbrella pine to “emphatically” mushroom-shaped imagery), that shift would in no way indicate that the mushroom form was unintended and accidental, and implies the opposite: intentional use of mushroom imagery.
Tree Stylizations in Medieval Paintings (Brinckmann 1906)
Erwin Panofsky’s Letters to Gordon Wasson, Transcribed – “emphatic” sentence:
https://egodeaththeory.org/2025/01/07/panofskys-letters-to-wasson-transcribed/#Sentence-1-7 –
Just to show what I mean, I enclose two specimens: a miniature of ca. 990 which shows the inception of the process, viz., the gradual hardening of the pine into a mushroom-like shape, and a glass painting of the thirteenth century, that is to say about a century later than your fresco, which shows an even more emphatic schematization of the mushroom-like crown.

Hatsis 2025: Psychedelic Injustice, p. 260: Totally Omits Scholarship when Summarizing the Pop “Suppression of Psychedelics” Premise
See my book review, which is scathing re: this passage:
Psychedelic Injustice: How Identity Politics Poisons the Psychedelic Renaissance (Hatsis, 2025)

God Is the Creator of Evil; Radical Monotheistic Hyper-Calvinism; Universal Puppetmaster
Experiencing this can so contradict egoic thinking, risk of psychosis in psychedelic peak state.
This experiential perspective is a major strain on the immature, daily mental model.

Transcendent Knowledge (Enlightenment) Is About Vulnerability, the Pedestal and Serpent of Vulnerability on a Pole
Greater knowlwedge and wisdom is of vulnerability. Merkavah palace 6: regardless of your knowledge and wisdom, ANGEL 6 GUARD MIGHT KILL YOU RANDOMLY.
image: Great Canterbury Psalter > king holds open scroll in left hand from God/ of God [God-shaped knoweldge; the harsh shaping = {angel harassing mystic}], open scroll in right hand to lion threat … the threat-vulnerability gate.
To comprehend that clear knowledge of cybernetics = know where the boundary line is forming two 2 2-level, dependent control – Eastern Advaita sucks b/c lacks structure, [long long list of bad things about Adv]
CAn we make long list of suchlike badness in W relig or phil of religion or theory of mysticism eg Neoplatonism overlaps – even advaita articles say The One… not only was Vivek guy forced through Christian schools, Greco Roman Christian, actually, including Neoplatonism; likely, this Theosophy Advaita nonduality incorps Neoplat; these writers studied Neoplatonism and then studied Advaita into the frame of Neoplatonism, the One, inarticulate,
- the One [recast as “nonduality”]
- nonduality Advaita
- ineffable
- apophatic mysticism [recast as “Eastern ineffability”]
Is Neo-Advaita Orientalized Neoplatonism? First, intensively study Neoplatonism. Afterwards, study Neo-Advaita, into the lens frame of Neoplatonism. Neoplatonic Advaita
Neoplatonic Advaita
It’s the same badness: overfocus on self/other boundary, along w/ inarticulate glorification of inarticulate and lacking structure in important areas of psychedelic experienceing.
- Neoplatonism: insufficiently coming from psychedelics; coming from Pop armchair unaware of psychedelics, subst’g non-drug meditation instead, building up timeframe expectations, 70 years of meditation required. Expectations are unhinged.
pass through gate = comprehend inherent cybernetic vulnerablility threat.

Sanitized Neoplatonism, battle transformation instability realization of cybernetic vulnerability omitted like the Challenging Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) omits 18 of 21 Angst/Dread effect items from OAV 1994.
OAV (ideally) is a (sometimes called 5D-ASC, which is conflated w/ — i should call it 13 FActors since they so, so weakly brand the Studerus questionnaire. 15 Factors = Studerus, != 5D-ASC which contains OAV (3 hi-lev dims) + 2 other irrel dims no one cares about, that vary per substance.
15 Factors starts w/ OAV, combines O & V into Pleasant hi-lev dim, A = Unpleasant hi-levl dim, and ADD sub-dimensions (factors), eg in A, add sub-dims: ICC; ANX; and Shadow Factor 13.
