{mushroom}
Two Amanitas forming a YI pair, with taxonomical facsimile of Liberty Cap, Panaeolus, and Cubensis features.31
31 Paul Stamets, Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World: An Identification Guide, 1996, p. 15.
Per John Rush, the figure in the middle holds something in right hand, that looks suspiciously like a mushroom.
Per Ruck, with as much bravado as faceplant (matched only by Brown, and also by Brown):
One example alone should suffice to silence the art historians: The mouse has a typical mushroom-tree beside him. The mushroom has a red cap, and a similar mushroom branches from its blue-staining trunk/stem. There are spots of bluing on the stems, and blue is associated with Cubensis, which indicates that this branching pair of Amanita are psychoactive.
Add brilliant strenuous scholarly research from Brown, with double IQ from Brown as well:
We intensively academically researched the backstory, and discovered that the central figure is considered in folk-lore about this tapestry, that the figure is understood to be a mouse!
Therefore, not a mushroom. ๐๐ผ –> ๐
This astute, critical, negative conclusion is our main case for why our identification skill is superior – we stake our entire Psychedelic Gospels theory and reputation for credibility on it.
Per Ruck, the colors identify this as secretly Amanita, because associated withThe Mushroom (๐) are the colors red, white, gold, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, pink, gray, and black, as well as silver — and this image has gold-orange-redpurple, therefore, it secretly matches.
{branching}
The bricks in the big left mushroom are relatively branching compared to the small brickless mushroom, therefore this mushroom-tree is branching form YI, which is the classic form with branching mapped to Left, non-branching mapped to Right.
Non-branching tail & path.
{handedness}
Tail is CONSUBSTANTIAL WITH the mushroom-tree on the left, by touching it on the right side of the God/Jesus/mouse figure.
Head tilted right, means mystic-state remembering.
A straightedge proves that the mouse nose is pointing at the HIDDEN MUSHROOM.
Butterfly’s left antenna is touching branching flower, proving that this image affirms the standard mapping, Left = branching = loss of control in the Psilocybin loosecog state of loose cognitive association binding.
{unfurrowed brow} + rainbow touching head indicates stable, transcendent control.
Typical art interpretation level of sophistication of entheogen scholarship: CAN YOU SPOT THE MUSHROOM? ๐
According to Bennett, the above is sophisticated masterful art, compared to Plaincourault:
Eve’s weight is on right foot. {standing on right foot}, like Golden Psalter same scene, Eve at the Tree of Knowledge.

Cow ๐๐ฉ๐โ๐ซ
{mushrooms}: ๐โ๐ซโ ๐
brown spots indicates psychoactive mushroom tripping, exactly like how in headshop art visual language, {spotted mushroom} means Cubensis.
๐ฒ proves ๐
{branching}: moon horns
{handedness}: R hoof fwd affirms relying on eternalism-thinking/ non-branching to produce smile/ peace instead of fear of loss of control
{stability}: per Ruck’s interpive method, , this is clearly Zeus in bull form, that abducted Persephone into the underworld.
Citation: Paul Feyerabend’s book Farewell to Reason, chapter “Progress in Philosophy, the Sciences and the Arts”, section “Progress in the Arts ” pp. 148-153, discusses these diagrammatic Trinkyz puzzles, and says about them, that they use non-naturalistic style to describe and depict things of the highest order, superior to Naturalism style, which is reductionistic, like Huggins’ 2024 article against mushroom trees.
Tauroctony Corruption by Foolish Non-Initiates pushing their Secret Amanita entheogen scholarship paradigm
Mark Hoffman made the blue-stemmed psilocybin mushroom in Mitrhras’ leg invisible, in order to exagerrate the red and white Amanita colors in Mithras’ garment.
The Red Shift corruption operation on art evidence done by Irvin (Danc/Salamander bestiary) & M Hoffman (Entheos 2 cover Tauroctony ) is a perfect example of the distorting suppression of Blue, in the Blue to Red shift.
The Red paradigm abusively suppressed Blue, forcing Blue to support & exist purely in support of the Red paradigm.
Flip it: force Red to serve & support the Blue paradigm.
The Secret Amamita paradigm assimilated Cubensis into it.
The Explicit Cubensis paradigm needs to assimilate Amanita evidence into it.
Amanita is a spreading ornamental weed that chokes out the good valuable plants.
Blue paradigm has to deal w / fight against two realities:
Euro art foundation is Amanita
Mysteries thinking/ culture ie Jesus’ hiding of comprehensuon from thise on the outside, those outside the gates, vs those on the inside having Amanita and understanding that myth refers to/ describes psychedelic eternalism not mundane-experiencing things like Huggins’ reductionism advocacy “a mushroom tree is either a mushroom or a tree, which literal one is it?
The text proves tgat the man is trying to literally kill the literal salander. I ‘reached out’ pompously to Hanegraaff but neither of us could figure out how the salamder got replaved by a phoenix” ๐คทโโ๏ธ
The Amanita Atman Project: Pursuing Transcendent Knowledge ๐โ๐ซ by Means Which Prevent It ๐
Ken Wilber defines the Atman project as pursuing enlightenment through means which prevent enlightenment.
By pursuing Transcendent Knowledge via SA Secret Amanita, man/ W culture/ Ruck / pop entheogen scholarship AVOIDS finding Transcendent Knowledge
Secret Amanita is an avoidance tactic to avoid ego death/ sacricing free-will branching steeering power.
Explicit Cubensis is the way to Transcendent Knowledge, effectually killing king ego.
egoic ppl Avoid Explicit Cubensis, & dwell on Secret Amanita instead, to keep the branching-power delusion in place.
To keep the illusion of autonomous control, instead of 2-level control.
Challenge: Given: Amanita as Tree of Life Is the Main Theme of Euro Culture (Art, Religious Myth, & Fairytales)
The Explicit Blue paradigm must incorporate & transform that factual situation; WHY is Amanita all-dominant in W Art & myth & Bible texts – list of Bible chapters

Cubensis ๐โ๐ซ Historical Usage ๐ Has Been Enslaved, made to bolster the undeserving, decoy, dummy, lesser entheogen, with lesser Transcendent Knowledge: the SAP ๐ ๐
Although suppressed & overlooked & abusively forced into service supporting the undeserving SAP, Explicit Cubensis really exists in cultural history, and is the SUPERIOR, ALBEIT EVEN THOUGH MINORITY evidence & historical actual practice.
THROUGHOUT CULTURAL HISTORY, THE SECRET AMANITA PARADIGM HAS ALWAYS BEEN DOMINANT, OBSCURING & ASIMILATING & suppressing/ HIDING the real brains/ engine, Explicit Blue comprehension & practice.
It is fortunate I have identified the big problem we’re up against; maximizes our ability to solve/ factor-in/ compensate/ undo God’s Eden Prohibition when God created SAP.
๐คซ๐โ๏ธ The Secret Amanita Paradigm
๐ผ๏ธ๐ฎ๐๐ฉ๐โ๐ซ๐ค The Explicit Cubensis Paradigm
Poop Is Greater than Pee
๐ฎ๐โ๐ซ > ๐ฒ๐
Allegro Wasson Ruck Hatsis Irvin Rush Heinrich Hoffman Staples did not INVENT the Secret Amanita paradigm; the Devil did, way back in Eden.
God or the Devil gives us Prohibition = Secret Amanita, in 1000 BC when Gen 2 was written.
All pop religion/ W culture eg Jesus recycling urine turning water to wine – unfortunately, Jesus DOES mean the Secret Amanita paradigm.
Allegro says the authors who wrote the Jesus character were thinking of Secret Amanita. He’s right, unfortunately.
In Rev 22 , Michael / Jesus / John announces: God is finished constructing SAP culture; and is now revealing the Explicit Cubensis paradigm [ECP].
Rev 22 Is God Replacing the Secret Amanita paradigm by the Explicit Cubensis paradigm
Finally on the last page of the Bible, titled by NIV translators “Eden Restored”, God ditches “those on the inside know Amanita”, replacing that at last by the Explicit Cubensis paradigm.
The Secret Amanita Paradigm Was Created by God (by Western Culture), not by Ruck
the Secret Amanita paradigm [SAP] comes from Gen2, God, Devil, Serpent, & from Jesus. Not from the Secret Amanita entheogen scholars — the SAES.
Hatsis is “right” alas ; what we are unfortunately stuck trapped in debating is indeed “yes or no: was there a secret Amanita cult?”
How to switch attention to the more valuable plant, Explicit Cubensis? given God’s world He proclaimed in Gen2: Let There Be Secret Amanita world lest Man reach out and eat Explicit Cubensis and be like us and have athanatos?
Challenge: Given: Secret Esoteric Understanding, Those on the Inside, the Mysteries, as Boundary like gated Eden & City of God, Is the Main Theme of European Culture (Art, Religious Myth, & Fairytales)
Reflects the reality that the mind can flip to understanding Analogical Psychedelic Eternalism – how to incorporate that reality without falling into the pop trap of dysfunctional boundary-creating, Prohibition-creating thought style/ framework/ explanatory framework/ paradigm? a limiting mental shackles prison.
The Red Shift corruption operation on art evidence done by Irvin (Danc/Salamander bestiary) & M Hoffman (Entheos 2 cover Tauroctony ) is a perfect example of the cancerous Amanita trap, Odysseus’ men stuck in the land of the lotus eaters, or pop Amanita theory readers.
Western Culture’s History of Only Seeing Secret Amanita Everywhere; Never Perceiving Explicit Cubensis Anywhere
SAP retards comprehension (by ancients throughout W culture, as well as by entheogen scholarship), SA delivers only 2nd-rate entheogen effects, making the lemmings in pop entheogen scholarship (& throughout W history) fail to recognize psilocybin mushrooms, only seeing Secret Amanita everywhere.
The Ruck Allegro Irvin Rush school is Ardent Advocates OF AMANITA — at the direct expense of deleting psilocybin mushrooms from Browns’ art database (that Brown said is the present website, in effect).
Wield/apply firmly the diamond hammer of interpretation; a forceful overlay as a detector device, as vigorously as Mark Hoffman forcing the color palette from Blue to Red in Entheos issue 3 cover in 2002: the tauroctony scene.
Mark Hoffman flipped the tauroctony scene on the cover of Entheos 3, so as to view the constellation of Taurus from below, ie the non-initiate’s point of view per David Ulansey; Eighth Gate article, about the orientation of Taurus constellation viewed from outside the heimarmene serpent-wrapped space-time block of no-free-will/monopossibility, so as to have VIRTUAL FREE WIIL that gives stable control; avoids loss of control when in the psilocybin peak window.
John Rush 2nd ed online gallery is down, account suspended, instead see Archive site or 1st Ed DVD of blurry images of no-mushroom mushroom images.
Jan Irvin’s 2008 book The Holy Mushroom gallery plate corrupting the Dancing Man/ Salamander bestiary image, making Carl Ruck screw up and write in his “Fungus Redivivus” article, “the cap is red, so Amanita” in an appendix of Irvin’s Allegro’s book The Sacred Mushroom & the Cross.
Viewing the Fixed-Stars Heimarmene Boundary from Outside of the no-free-will eternalism spacetime block
A week ago after i discovered 1st Ed cover art 2 wks ago: Splendor Solis : “Philosophers beside the tree” has {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs, i found also:
In Irvin & Rutajit bk Astrotheology & Shamanism, i found that when holding a celestial cosmic globe/model, hollow, you view 6 constellations in the Zodiac band from below, and 6 from above = outside of the eternalism no-free-will/monopossibility spacetine block – the initiate’s POV.
How to Have Free Will Again, Virtually
After you incorporate fully & routinely, matter-of-factly the shocking ego-killing comprehension and awareness that you are a helpless vulnerable puppet per 2-level control, you have risen above eternalism / no-free-will/monopossibility, you have consciously virtual-only freewill autonomous control.
The completed, perfected initiate no longer has enmity with the serpent, or with God, the uncontrollable higher-level source of your control thoughts.

Outline Design Strategy
todo: read local file “/TK/Idea Dev 2024-12.md” and update the structure here according to the plans there.
todo: strategy: identify 5 topics to teach psychedelic church in person: {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.
todo: in that section, correct the date of Plaincourault per Samorini 1997: over 100 years earlier. not 1291 AD, but 1184 AD, per endnote 4.
Also Abbot Rignoux wrote fresco is “mushroom” as early as ~1890, not French group 1910 pub’d 1911.
Entheogen scholarship includes errors, young field; reset everything we “know”. Every field must continually correct its errors.
AGAINST WASSON, this is definitely Amanita, integrated with branching motif etc.
Wasson is wrong, the mycologists are right, and WASSON HAD TO LIE, DECEIVE, AND CENSOR, AND BLOCK PANOFSKY, AND BLOCK BRINCKMANN, AND INSULT MYCOLOGISTS.
THE MYCOLOGISTS ARE RIGHT.
WASSON (BANKER FOR POPE = 100% EXTREME CONFLICT OF INTEREST) IS POSTURING, FAKE, A PUT-ON, PLAY-ACTING, CON ARTIST BLUFFING, DUPLICITOUS, RUDE, POMPOUS, LIAR, DECEIVER, CENSOR, CHARLATAN, OBSTRUCTIONIST, FRAUD, PHONY, DISHONEST, caught red-handed censoring the art authoritiesat the same time as berating stupid ignorant mycologists for failing to “consult” the art authorities; exposed as a fraud by the Journal of Psychedelic Studiesโ 2019 Browns.
Huggins allies with the dishonest Wasson, passing silently over Wasson’s censorship while Huggins tries to quietly draw attention to Panofsky’s 2nd letter, as if nothing noteworthy, as if we had the letter since 1952.
Who do you side with: phony lying deceiver pretender? or truth and honesty?
format: 1-2 takeaway injunctions. 2 quotes without commentary. can quote my writings. But quotes take excess wordcount, which is why these articles journal are written voiced as they are w/ footnotes.
Letcher, Hatsis, Huggins call to differentiate folk stories vs. sceintific historiography per W Hanegraaff.
Hane calls for historiography (of Western Esotericism) that’s empirical science based, not based on myth or mythical history.
Letcher debunks folk myth but overshoots, denying any use of mushroom in Christian history. I’m against Secret Amanita, and Letcher is as well, yet we are in incomm paradigms.
Letcher debunks pop S A, but falsely claims no mushroom in Christianity history.
My paradigm is the Explicit Cubensis paradigm, which is not addressed by Letcher even though I’ve been publishing the maximal entheogen theory of religion since 2002.
Goal: Equip Cognitive Scientists to endure psychedelic eternalism
Goal: Restore the role of Great Canterbury Psalter folio webpage image f134 (leg-hanging mushroom tree) as a teaching instrument.

Goal: In CEQ, delete the โGriefโ fake factor; restore the โDread regarding Controlโ factor
Goal: Warn about non-drug “entheogens”, against entheogenic esotericism
Hanegraaff 8 years before his keynote article
what Hane wrote about non-drug entheogens and Erik Davis egged him on, I strongly disagree with Davis.
No more stealing credit from Psilo to falsely elevate alleged techniques that cannot work, don’t say “non-drug contemplation can produce same effects as high-dose Psil”.
“can” is a false binary word implying 100% efficacy, but it’s 0%. “can” is a euphemism for “doesn’t”.
Cybermonk: Hey Hane, forget about non-drug esotericism.
Hanegraaff 8 years later: Hey, good idea: e e = non-drug esotericism. Everything is an entheogen.
Erik Davis: Great idea (in comment replies to Hane probably at acad.edu).
Cybermonk: Worst idea from any academic ever.
Goal: expose of Wasson’s Duplicity, Censorship, and Bluff Pseudo-Academic “Consulting” Argument from Authority
“Wasson doesnโt provide any citations of published scholarly studies of โmushroom treesโ or โPilzbaumโ, where we can weigh the merit of the art historiansโ confident consensus and see how or whether theyโve addressed the most-persuasive objections to their consensus view.”
…
“Wasson doesnโt show us any citations of published scholarly studies of โmushroom treesโ or โPilzbaumโ: the result is 1-sided apologetics; within this presentation, we are only permitted to hear the opening assertions and position statement of one party in the debate, not to see how that position responds to the other sideโs objections.
Given that Wasson bandied-about this Panofsky excerpt for at least 17 years (1953-1970), and criticized Allegro for not accepting it, itโs remarkable that in Soma, the letters to the Times, or the letter to Allegro, Wasson didnโt go to the trouble of providing citations of the eminent art historiansโ published studies on Pilzbaum. These would need to be studies that convincingly show why the mushroom-and-tree interpretation is surely wrong โ studies that would need to convince those who are not already convinced or too-easily convinced. If no such compelling studies exist,Wasson is wrong to insist and assert as fact and as sound scholarly conclusion, as he does, year after year, that the mycologistsโ view is a โmisapprehensionโ, โerrorโ, โblunderโ, and โa naive misinterpretationโ.
“With no citations given of published, thorough studies, the result is an argument from authority. Wassonโs unscholarly attitude and method here, toward his readers, is striking. Weโre not even supposed to wonder how exactly the art historians reached their conclusions on this highly relevant and interesting matter; weโre to mentally picture hazy, idealized, intensive scholarly research, producing unimpeachable, compelling results, and imagine the conclusions as having been tested in the fire of robust critical examination. Either this, or weโre supposed to be impressed and compelled solely by the arguments contained in Panofskyโs letter, as though it were impossible to think of any objections to his sparse argumentation.” – mh 2006, section “Panofsky Argument is Anti-Entheogen Apologetics, Lacking Compellingness”, http://egodeath.com/WassonEdenTree.htm#_Toc135889217
Goal: Kill off the fallacious move, โMycologists need to โconsultโ โcompetentโ art historiansโ
Rule: ACADEMICS ARE REQUIRED TO PUBLISH their views on pilzbaum, else doesnโt count โ ie, counts as a ruse, a bluff; dishonest, insincere, unbelievable, a put-on; bad-faith argumentation.
A coerced faith-statement/ confession, doesn’t count, compromised; conflict of interest.
Historians and art historians must follow standard academic practice: publish else you’re just bluffing and making up claims, sheer assertions.
As everyone already knows, you must provide citations along with such claims to be
OH YES WE ARE SUPER FAMILIAR WITH PILZBAUM, WE’RE ALL OVER IT – YET, WE HAVE NOTHING TO CITE?! Not surprised, sounded like BS. At least real BS grows cubensis.
Goal: Reply to McCarthy & Priest

Correctly assign credit for pilzbaum to Samorini 1996-1998, not to Allegro (Irvin 2008), not to Wasson (Ruck 2001, Lash maybe).
Goal: Make the field (entheogen scholarship; Psychedelic Cognitive Science) understand that we donโt know anything, cannot make premature conclusions.
Get Stamets to retract “cube – not known in Spain” and “cube grows in subtropical”. Follow the high-credibility approach of Samo’s article about Lib Cap in Italy.
Sloppy, careless, lackadaisical non-science – WHERE ARE THE RESEARCH PAPERS DEVOTED TO FINDING CUBE IN EUROPE/ENGLAND?
Everyone wants the LACK of psil in Europe.
They don’t see it because they want it to not be there. So they can stick with parroting the “everyone knows” stories, instead of bothering with finding truth.
Change to doing EMPIRICAL INVESTIGATION instead of presuppositions taken as if factually established after critical inquiry.

Reductionism is treating topic A as if topic B, discarding the essence of topic A.
Reductionism: treating mystical experience as if political unity, discarding mystical experience.
Unity Mysticism Is Fake, Reductionist Political-Unity Agenda: the kind of esotericism Wouter Hanegraaff rejects as “perennialist religionist”: this is the religionist confabulated synthetic artificial false model of mystical experience:
perennialism is actually defined as: unity boundary lifting to create political international unity. REductionist. Get rid of real mystical experience (control model transformation), to replace that by fake “mystical experience” conceived as “boundary cessation, to cause mystical unity to cause international political unity“
determinism is universally ubiquitously defined specifically as domino-chain causality. the opposite end of spectrum from eternalism.
The Spectrum of Variants from Determinism to Eternalism
determinism (= domino-chain causality).
superdeterminism.
strong determinism (article by Chen).
eternalism described by Josie Kins/ effectindex.com.
all-at-once universe per Emily Adlam.
eternalism per the Egodeath theory; non-branching, single future, future exists, 4D spacetime block universe eternalism PLUS/ including, the control model transformation concomitant.
I INSTANTLY noticed when read-aloud page 1 of James 1893 article The Dilemma of Determinism: he argues in terms of domino-chain causality, BUT what he is actually hating is Eternalism.
James tries to make domino-chain causality produce block-universe eternalism.
James is conflating two different models: determinism vs. eternalism.
Kyle Bromhall’s article points out the same thing, though instead of “eternalism” KB uses “logical determinism” ie article by Taggert on A series vs B series: the truth value … whether statements about the future have a truth value.
though kb takes the project in opposite direction from me (todo: specify my disagreement re big picture).
Hidden agenda of “common-core mysticism”/ “perennialism”/ “mysticism = non-boundary unity” = trojan horse for international political unity
the Egodeath theory is against the model called “common-core mysticism” and the model called “perennialism” and the model of mysticism that takes for granted that the essense of mystical experience is boundary suspension and unity” — because those are dishonest and reductionist, ultierior motive, they are incorrect and they are false pretences:
The reason why everyone says (falsely) mystical experience = unity experience, is because:
a stolen brief sensation of unity = beginner mystical experience.
the focus on unity was fake and invented by 1890 indian guru for pupose of political international unity.
Like Eranos esotericism that’s co-opted for political or existential ends, discarding actual esoteric Transcendent Knowledge, per “religionism” and “perennialism” as criticized by Wouter Hanegraaff. “Traditionalism”. Cultural/political activiism abusing mystical experience theory:
Reductionism: Putting forth a non-boundary, unity model of mystical experience, for the purpose of serving a political agenda of international unity.
To accomplish political unity, we fabricated a model of mystical experience = unity, non-boundary. Trace this back to Vivekananda, James, Stace, Leary/ Pahnke, Richards, Griffiths. Highlight “unity” or “suspend boundary” in world mysticism, and omit phen’y of control transformation.
Mystical experience is control-model transformation, not non-boundary unity
the “non-boundary unity” model of mystical experience nbum
non-boundary unity nbu
“unity mysticism” vs. “control-transformation mysticism”
control-transformation mysticism ctm
cybernetic mysticism
the Cybernetic Theory of Ego Transcendence vs the Unity Theory of Ego Transcendence
10:01 am May 12, 2025 – in jan 1988 i didn’t label the bad old theory of ego transcendence vs. my good new theory. I named the new theory the Cybernetic Theory of Ego Transcendence – vs. what Ken Wilber / the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology theory? Ken Wilber says and everyone says that ego transcendence is about “unity” or “No Boundary”
Where did everyone get the false notion that mystical experience, ego transcendence, Transcendent Knowledge, satori, metaphysical revealation, psychedelic experiencing, or purification is about “unity” (boundary suspension between self vs. other) rather than about control transformation?
Mystical experience in fact is about control transformation (per Alan Watts), not about boundary suspension unity or non-boundary unity.
EVERYONE has embraced the 1890 fake false model of mystical experience as non-boundary unity [a false front for political unity], and ignored the true model of mystical experience as control-model transformation.
Mystical experience has been reduced and replaced by political unity agenda.
To do that, accounts of mystical experience got rid of control transformation, and replaced that by a focus on non-boundary unity.
There are two competing models of mystical experience:
the “non-boundary unity” model of mystical experience
the “control transformation” model of mystical experience
the “control transformation” model of mystical experience cxmme
control-model transformation cmt
everyone approaches psychedelics expecting to get — per Mystical Experience Questionnaire (MEQ) — non-boundary unity; to their surprise, what they get instead is control transformation.
whitewash and replace:
replace control transformation by non-boundary unity, in the model of mystical experience.
replace unpl chall exp by pleasant non-boundary unity (oceanic).
“oceanic” – read this cynically as trojan horse for political international unity; political unity.
“oceanic mysticism” is a cover-word euphemism (trojan horse) for political unity agenda. So is “common core common-core mysticism and perennialism; the giveaway is that common-core mysticism and perennialism is always, universally defined SPECIFICALLY as non-boundary unity.
Is common-core mysticism and perennialism the case, given that mystical experience is control-model transformation? Everyone: “God no!”
Is common-core mysticism and perennialism the case, given that mystical experience is non-boundary unity? Everyone: “Yes!”
common-core mysticism and perennialism, “positive-balanced”, BOUNDARY MYSTicism = nondual unity oneness model of mysticism
That is the source of the bogus, political unity model of mystical experience, confabulated by:
Indian guru 1890.

An Indian guru 1890 invented fake “mysticism” model, “positive-balanced”, agenda being political unity foisted as “unity experience” – that’s the origin of boundary mysticism (unitive, nondual, oneness) – fake oneness model of mystical experience, agenda = political unity.
James 1902 adopted that “political unity = spirtual unity = mystical experience = oneness” fake model of , fabricated and confabulated model of mysticism – REDUCTIONIST.
Goal: Require Open Science for Psychedelic Science
Psychometrics questionnaires must be publicly accessible, articles presenting them must be clear and easy to read, must have forum for critique and correction of malformed instruments.
8th grade level readability.
Goal: Identify exactly: What is there to be afraid of?
Not get hung on badly argued uninformed writings of the Pop pilzbaum Deniers.
Goal: Everyone recognize and comprehend psychedelic eternalism (vs. possibilism)
(they have more trouble with Possibilism though)
Represented via {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.
Goal: entheogen scholarship must be directed toward Repeal of Psil Prohibition
โ not folk morality tales of identity formation by laboring to construct a barrier between us heretic psychedelic vs them mainstream prohibitionists for eternity
Goal: Make entheogen scholarship retract โNo Cubensis in Europeโ
Excellent quote in Wasson Russia vol 2, emailed to Cyberdisciple Dec 9 2024, about the folly of centuries of denying there’s Psil use in Mexico. Mycologists switched from centuries of confident proclamation of no mushroom in Mexico – now look how that is dominant established fact to the extreme; everyone now conflates Psil with Mexico. Yet we now face the identical sitation in Europe: Experts have known forever that Europe has Amanita the “secret Amanita cult”, but that Europe lacks a Psil/ Cubensis/ Panaeolus/ Liberty Caps tradition.
1915: EVERYONE KNOWS THERE’S NO PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOM IN MEXICO CULTURAL HISTORY, JUST PEYOTE. ๐
1925: EVERYONE KNOWS THERE’S NO PSILOCYBIN MUSHROOM IN EUROPE CULTURAL HISTORY, JUST AMANITA. ๐
Goal: Kill the myth โEurope = Amanita, Americas = Psilocybinโ
Premature false confidence in a stumbling faltering new field, entheogen scholarship.
Goal: Debunkers of Pop Secret Amanita, stop conflating that with entheogenic Christianity history
Goal: End the Amanita Primacy Fallacy in entheogen scholarship
Goal: Follow Panofsky’s Brinckmann Citation and Photostats
Brinkmann book research German:
What page # discusses development of trees from pine to mushroom imagery?
What page # says that that development was universal & widespread & gradual/ smooth?
What page # discusses corruption of prototypes?
What page # says that that gradualness of development from pine to mushroom shape proves that the artist had no purpose in making viewers think of a mushroom? … says development from pine to mushroom proves that the development is unintentional, with no purpose for the mushroom imagery?
What page # mentions branches as conflicting with the mushroom imagery?
Does Drawer W3.2, Folder 20 include two photostats of pilzbaum?
A 990 miniature showing the start of development from pine to mushroom.
A 1200s glass painting showing an emphatic mushroom crown/ cap.
Update Nov 30 2024: today I produced the pair of .wav files, VOX_TK_5984.wav & VOX_TK_5985.wav. I might create a new post/page to announce it; will cross-link present page. Download for only 3 days starting Nov 30 2024: https://we.tl/t-8sCJP2PBdV – 2 files: 1 long voice, 1 4-minute guitar. “Ep260 Debunking Psychedelic Science.mp3” – about 1.5 hours “Ep260G ๐ธ๐ Escape Psychedelic Science.mp3” – about 4 minutes New page Nov 30 2024:
Unlike the crummy prejudiced mycologists, I actually INVESTIGATED cubensis distribution reports non-tropical, instead of ASSUMING and making sheer baseless prejudiced assertions “no cubensis in Europe”.
2003, mycologists were proved WRONG as Andy Letcher admitted in the book Shroom, in claiming “no psilocybin in Europe”.
Letcher moves the goalpost and says, ok there WAS psilocybin (specifically liberty caps, ONLY) in Europe, but there was no tradition of considering them as an altered state or religious altered state.
Letcher perpetuates the entrenched fallacy “no cubensis cow pastures outside tropical”. He needs to retract that fallacy, same as he retracts the fallacy “no presence of psilocybin mushrooms in Europe.”
I wish to upload quickly raw recording, but not enough time right now.
Kafei and Kalindi Yi and Max really really really Freakout are correct:
20 grams dried cubensis is high dose like 500 mics ergot — 5 g is NOT high-dose; fraudulent McKenna is wrong; only rank newbies think 5g is high dose.
He falsely presented himself as a 5 g user for years after he stopped all use.
5g of dried cubensis is not noticeable to advanced user using it in an active way during directed activities; it is a disco dose.
Overlooked topics
Not covered in the initial recording:
the disempowering Hopkins paradigm
Huberman YouTube video surprisingly asserts the same as remarkable Eadwine: that the essence of the psilocybin session peak is Anxiety, as the main hallmark(!), as my recent post around 2 posts ago remarking on Eadwine’s intense negativity about the cubensis experience.
~1:09:00 has another error, maybe about Lash uploading 2/5 of 1/3 of the rows in image f134 being “17%”; that’s actually 13% of the image.
__________
Addendum Oct 23 2023
Written after I recorded the 1:45:00 original recording + a short noisy-room errata recording, but am planning another recording segment about Huberman and disempowerment.

Andrew Huberman
Anxiety/ dread “of ego dissolution” at:
46:20
1:21:53
1:25:52
1:54:30
The video’s title implies a broad therapeutic approach, but the video is actually only about depression, narrowly.
I’m allied with rejecters of this Therapeutic PARADIGM, which has a narrow purpose, framing, & potential – this reductionism gets rid of psychedelic experience, and denatures it – these studies cover newbies only, 1-3 first sessions, for depression therapy only, = “the science studies/ papers”.
The therapeutic depression scientific studies” is a big-sounding presentation, but delivers actually only a tiny narrow selective attempted application, to extract a little of the experiential potential of psilocybin but reject a lot of aspects — 18/21, per CEQ’s selection of only 3 of OAV’s 21 Angst/Dread (DED) 1994 questions.
“Science” has lost credibility, due to rampant fraud, irreproducible results, the replication crisis, and highjacking of legitimation by politics ๐ฆ.
This brand of therapy business is abusing psilocybin in a reductionistic application to depression
The therapeutic paradigm (for depression (aka CEQ’s “Grief” dimension) discards 86% of (18/21) – of psychedelic challenging (transformative) experiencing.
Hopkins group is trying to selectively pluck/ extract the supposedly desirable “therapy for depression” and prevent/ discard/ shut out the challenging transformative effects.
The rift in psychedelic science between mystics vs hardcore physicalists
Hopkins’ CEQ ruined the credibility of the entire endeavor / paradigm, “scientific studies”.
They try to replace diverse psychedelic lenses by a single lens, trying to pluck out depression therapy while rejecting the broader challenging reconfiguration of the mental world-model of control-in-world.
This Huberman/ Hopkins approach is an obscuring narrative overlay imposed by narrow attempted “scientific studies”.
definition of ‘high-dose’: when increasing the dose doesn’t increase the effects.
max’d out dose – there’s an odd consensus that everyone wants to increase dose more and more, as if it’s a given objective of increasing the dose to some undefined (max) dosage.
Psilocybin is incredibly humbling to advanced psychonauts who built up daily habits of impurity and pollution, bringing a mundane stance of agency-power into the sacred, set-apart state of loose cognition.
The mind must emphatically switch modes, wash hands, wash the left foot, and wash the right foot, lest you bring in pollution and impure thinking, from mundane daily load-carrying as a burdened control-agent, into the throne room of God.
The kind of thinking that we practice every day, brings down kings in utter humiliation when they try to apply that same basis of control-in-world, in the loose cognition state.
Priority: Identify How Eadwine Thought
Wouter Hanegraaff’s “radical empiricism” method of studying the history of Western esotericism puts top emphasis on accurately representing and understanding what Eadwine meant; ie what does a given text mean to its author?
The first order of business in interpreting Eadwine’s images in the Great Canterbury Psalter is not “do you (as an enlightened Modernist) agree with his theology”, but rather, what did Eadwine mean?
How does Eadwine interpret his images?
My interpretation should accurately explain what Eadwine meant, and what the Medieval art genre of branching-message mushroom trees meant to its artists.
This involves 4 distinct major motifs: {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.
The Lethargy Problem: Preparation Is Prayer and Drinks
Psilocybin sometimes produces lethargy, vs. the relative speediness of ergot.
Preparation for a session is prayer, purification, hands-washing, foot washing, & repudiation of a kind of initiative because instead, the god or snake brings the sage and sacrament together; the sage doesn’t own that initiative.
Prayer, repudiation of initiative/ steering, and cleansing of the pollution of hubris, is not the only required preparation.
Someone who is subject to intense psilocybin lethargy could make it a prep-prerequisite to prepare an ample supply of drinks: fruit juice, taurine, tea, iced tea, cold coffee, coffee pods, drinkable yogurt, kefir, nutrition drinks.
Accurate Description of Eadwine’s Message
I have been reading about psilocybin so I can check, improve, & align my explanatory model of mental model transformation dynamics, as reported & described by Eadwine, checking this explanation with the actual experienced effects.
Is Eadwine’s explanation of cube dynamics correct?
Does Eadwine’s explanation of the end-state match my model in the branching-message mushroom trees article?
{crown} motif
{affirmed by God} motif
Eadwine’s {bed}, falling down, & lying down motifs partly are used to describe the intense lethargy from psilocybin.
The lethargy from some such plants (woodrose; LSA) can be stronger than the cognitive experiential effects (shifting vision; psychotic mental colors).
The result is natural, organic breath-focus & meditation. Psilocybin sometimes produces meditation thought-watching, and a focus on breathing.
Reconciling with insane color psychotic vulnerability down THAT path, intense nearby presence of vulnerability/ threatened = enlightened; THE meaning of {fear of God}.
The familiar, intimate bride-chamber: right over there, in that direction of thinking is, being overpowered and enlightened about the shape of control-in-world.
At first, resistance to the threat encroaching from the alien god (king Pentheus vs. Dionysus andro-gyne; Hermes-Aphrodite), and then the female thought-receiver gives in and comprehends the higher power source of control-thoughts (male thought-inserter), producing a new conception of controller-in-world.
This awareness of threat and vulnerability gives birth to the adult form: a demigod immortal; non-dying, no longer subject to resisting and battling one’s own thinking.
enlightenment = near fear; thorough, psychotically nonchalant familiarity with being an inch away from panic terror seizure.
Current Work at Top of Canterbury Commentary Page: Per-Row Hi-Res Crops
The library site is down often: Great Canterbury Psalter. I snagged per-row hi-res captures yesterday, July 5, 2023.
Where I have been working, in this site: the Great Canterbury Psalter gallery Commentary page:
top of page — I added per-row crops for the first 8 pages; 8 pages x 4 rows/page = 32 1-row crops.
Categorizing Motifs into the 4 Main Motifs
The past couple weeks, I discovered many mushroom motifs, and big 4 motif categories bolstering my interpretation — a mapping of motifs in this art genre (branching-message mushroom trees in Medieval art) to my direct explanatory model of how the mind transforms by loose cognition, per the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism.
Eadwine’s entire set of images in Great Canterbury Psalter must be treated as a coherent systemic whole.
Same as the Golden Munich Psalter.
Reliable interpretation requires considering the entire genre of medieval art: branching-message mushroom trees; ie the loose, selective, creative, freewheeling, & inventive combination of 4 main broad motifs: {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.
In Great Canterbury Psalter by studying the entire set of Eadwine images, I found:
tables with caps & stems (mushroom)
donkey carrying a bag of blue circles (mushroom)
Liberty Cap jars (mushroom)
finger shapes (branching)
roof toppers (mushroom)
crowns/ kings
threats from all directions (stability)
Current Work at Bottom of Canterbury Commentary Page
I have also been working in the bottom of that Canterbury Commentary page.
arranging an outline of various specific motifs into 4 specialized groups: {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} – those are the broad, master motifs.
That is not the familiar exercise grouping motifs into the Theory’s 4 quadrants (analogical, psychedelic, eternalism, cybernetics).
The Psilocybin Therapy paradigm is a dead end: that approach always amounts to “process your retrieved personal traumas.” But that’s NOT what transcendent fear terror is about.
Transcendent terror is due to the inherent nature of the immature mental worldmodel of {control agent steering in branching world}.
{king steering in tree}, fighting desperately against the inside threat, which is the mind’s uncontrollable source of control thoughts.
The higher, uncontrollable controller (puppetmaster) and {snake frozen in rock}, and overpowering deja vu, conspire from multiple directions to demand you willingly give away control, it seems.
It’s a really strange experience, wishing to relax and enjoy but feeling that you’d have to crazily let go of control.
From a certain perspective, you let go of control by, rather, comprehending the actual, 2-level nature of control-in-world:
you as a local autonomous control agent, are replaced by a corrected, more accurate model of control and possibility-steering, that claims far less power, that divides your power such that power of steering sits on a level above the local control agent.
The mind is taught to be constantly, intensely aware of profound dependence & vulnerability in every act and mental construct always, every day.
From the God-level point of view, “giving away” control from oneself as an autonomous monolithic agent to a higher level control-source was always a done deal forever.
The local, subjective control agent never actually was a monolithic, autonomous initiator of acts of will.
In loose cognition, mature thinking (the mature experiential mode) is trained and taught stoic, calm non-reactivity to the intense threat posed by its own source of thinking/ willing.
Become psychotically nonchalant about your nearby control mayhem potential — that’s just how things are, matter-of-fact accommodate this crazy revelation.
In the Great Canterbury Psalter, Eadwine communicates this relationship, attitude, & stance toward your own source of thoughts.
The psychedelic podcasts report high-dose humbling, especially of the most experienced people.
Psychedelic & Consciousness Research
The Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic & Consciousness Research emphasizes:
higher dose = more challenging.
Punk wedding-band musician Frederick Barrett is taking over that Center as Director, for Roland Griffiths.
Barrett contributed to the Stacean MEQ-POS psychedelic effects questionnaire, based on the wildly lopsided “mystical experiencing” model from Walter Stace 1960 and Wm James 1902.
To balance that lopsided instrument, Barrett also contributed to the CEQ-POS psychedelic effects questionnaire, which eliminated Anxious Dread (DED) effects by deleting them.
When you suffer psychedelic terror, we recommend that you REPRESS and SUPPRESS the shadow dragon monster, for the sake of safety, so that psychedelics research can continue.

The Nature of this Episode Content
Talking through all of the Eadwine images in Great Canterbury Psalter was an excellent exercise for me and a major milestone to force me to look at all aspects of all of the images.
The degree of certainty and coherent integrity of interpretation requires knowing all places where a variant of a given mytheme is presented.
eg know where the most explicit mushroom toppers are on the peaks of building roofs, so that inferior instances can be identified by knowing the most ideal instances.
These notes are tiny 1% samplings, these are NOT summaries of the entire content.
Song name: “Ep258a ๐๐ผ๐๐ณ๐ Canterbury Psalter Images Tour”
Intro Topics for the Tour
0:00 – Short Egodeath Mystery Show Intro. (no date)
0:21 – 9 groups of Eadwine images. 8 pages of 3×4 panels, first. After that, images that are about 40% of the page, and have 1-3 rows. Plan a speed run of talking through each image (but I did full details on every image instead).
I’ll skip the 8 full-page 3×4 grids until the end to not get stuck on them like everyone. I’ll start with Group 1 of image scenes (f20-f193).
8 Ranges of f## urls: 1-25-50-70-100-125-150-175-200.
I began — fortunately — with a lot more general analysis (53 minutes), before finally hitting/ talking through the specific images (f20) in order. What topics does the Intro segment cover, from 0:00 to 53:00?
10:00 – The more you identify the definite mapping of handedness to possibilism-thinking vs. eternalism-thinking, the more exceptions and “play” you find. Eadwine tries to confound and prevent a superstitious worship of “right” and demonizing “left”.
30:00 – I had oversimplistic idea that a given tree was “good” or “bad”, way too statically. Requires fractal scope analysis. This genre of art has sophisticated use of branching morph’y & flexible use of {handedness}.
40:00 – the eternally existing block universe with pre-existing control thoughts. Genesis 3 vs. Rev 22:14, “Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.” (NIV)
Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.
Revelation 22:14 (NIV)
50:00 – turmoil when you summon all your control power to battle against your own thinking treated as a Dionysus invading alien outside higher control power. Your thinking becomes treated/ experienced/ related to as a fatal threat against your control power.
52:34 – Defined 8 groups of image scenes. f1-25, f25-50, etc.
57:00 — hell flames experience while you hold childish view. aka workaday mundane tightcog agency-steering model. You as controller are battling against your own thinking.
58:49 — “he has lost control of his thinking”
1:00:00 – Battling your source of thinking = flames, turmoil, instability.
Caught in a net, tormented in flames, sages pulled upside down into flame pit/mouth by angels / demons.
When you enter loosecog in an IMPURE way b/c your bring mundane possibilism-thinking into the alt state.
Wrath-invoking {pollution, impurity} = asserting the mind’s usual possibilism-thinking while in alt state.
Need to coordinate asserting/ relying on Left and Right foot; possibilism-thinking + eternalism-thinking.
1:30:00 – instead of brown garment full body, it’s now blue, and brown is a layer over that. inner vs outer, which layer of garment is possibilism-thinking, vs eternalism-thinking? Trying to shield eyes from open scroll; afraid to lose control over their own thinking.
f34 – 1:31:13 in Part A: No Left Arm at Liberty Cap and Axe, Nursing Three
1:45:00 – During this pass, I think I missed left tree’s right-hand affirmed branch is the one branch that reaches/touches God’s blue cloud. similar to f177 row 1 left (the tan-stem cubensis tree with offset right branch & horses). As often happens, this talk-through prepared me to recognize that morphology / path in my next pass of looking at this picture.
1:46:00 – this tree proves Erwin Panofsky is 180 degress opposite of truth: artists are obliged to be creative, especially with msh trees.
14719 – five cut branches. fail to say the scroll-approved rightmost branch is the only one to reach God’s blue cloud? These observations about cuts visual cuts, prepped me to, upon next view, trace the rigthtmost branch up to the blue cloud.
1:48:30 spoke instead of image f177’s tree. and of leaf trees being imortant. and lifted garment. so many details to point out.
f47 – 1:49:48 in Part A: Demolitioning Building, King Holds {balance scale}
1:50:00 – Moeiro site claims this is a “temple” being demolitioned. But it has no entryway! no doors. Exposed bricks in place of doorway.
1:53:30 – lower right guys cowering from flames raining down on them. Explained the experience. Autonomous control agent, thinking is shaped as if you (current local control agent) are your own source of thoughts, a closed system. your own thinking closed building with no door.
f109 – 1:40:21 in Part B: Caught in Hell-Mouth Furnace Net, Summoned to City Gate Entrance Past Ossuary Corpse, Stable Building Protected by Cloth Washed Clean
These notes are tiny 1% samplings, these are NOT summaries of the entire content.
This part C finishes covering image f193, the last of the 46 Image Scenes.
To Do: Move this to the start of Part d, re-create mp3 c & d. re-upload.
At the end of this Part c, I plan the order of the 8 full-page 12-panel images (96 total) at start of Great Canterbury Psalter, to avoid getting stuck at f11 like everyone does.
Song name: “Ep258c ๐๐ผ๐๐ณ๐ Canterbury Psalter Images Tour”
0:00 – Start.
f115 – 0:14 in Part C: Wide Cloth, Fishes, Sun, Moon
f134 – 21:18 in Part C: ๐ Hanging Upside Down, {balance scale}
Because there’s lots of info packed into this image, and b/c I’m expert at it, I spent 3x as long summarizing this image as the other image scenes. 16 min instead of usual ~5 min.
Site map page “Gallery” section – https://egodeaththeory.wordpress.com/nav/#gallery A most-useful page. = scope of the Gallery section of site map page – Find most page titles easily in that page.
I’m uploading the already-produced mp3 files for Episodes 256 & 257 today to catch up to make way for the important Ep258 that’s a tour of all Eadwine images in Great Canterbury Psalter.

Mid-June 2023, I made voice recordings covering EVERY panel of every Eadwine image in Great Canterbury Psalter. todo: listen and add notes here.
June 25, 2023: I’m producing those recordings now; part A & B done (2 hours each, about 3 more parts to go). It will be webpage: Egodeath Mystery Show Ep258 ๐๐ผ๐๐ณ๐ Canterbury Psalter Images Tour (June 18-June ##, 2023)
Functional motivation for why this page exists: it is a pressure release valve and lightning rod to offload extra burden from the Gallery page.
May 26, 2025: I’ve created several dedicated pages, for Great Canterbury Psalter images:
The first application / usage of the completed gallery: find, crop, and put at top of this page an image of demons roasting and pulling sages, FOOLHARDY CUBENSIS PSYCHONAUTS and would-be Loose Cognitive Science researchers into hell-mouth fire pit vortex net trap, in desperate need of rescue from outside the system into stable temple altar gateway.
todo: images of angels harassing psychonauts desperately trying to avert their gaze and shield themselves against seeing their vulnerability. This will go in section: Motifs > {instability} > {threatened}
Motivation for Creating this Page
For technical reasons, need the Gallery page to be streamlined. Will add commentary to the present webpage instead.
“Full Screen” at Art Websites Means “Ok We’ll Only Waste Half of Your Screen”
Update Dec. 2024: On some computers, you can move mouse to right side of screen, wait 3 seconds, for UI to fade out.
“Full Screen” means, the art website only wastes 30% of your available screen space on unwanted UI cruft & pointless unused blank space, instead of wasting 40%.
The whole idea of Chrome was to not have UI chrome, yet art website designers still are too proud to get rid of their damned UI when you select “Full Screen”.
Website designers: What is so hard to understand by “Full Screen”? Show us the damn art, NOT your stupid screen-wasting UI design.
How to Be Pulled by a Demon into the Hell Flames Mouth Pit Furnace Net Thicket and Be Rescued into Stable Temple Gate Lamb Altar Gateway in Learned Balance of Left and Right Foot, Terror and Confidence Fear of God
The gallery is ready to gaze and shield your eyes from, and desperately struggle to avert your gaze from and defend against thinking your way into the thicket net demon hell flames fire vortex pit furnace hell-jaws, drawn into the {hell-mouth furnace pit} vortex.
As part of troubleshooting tech issues, I moved some content (tips & substantive commentary) from this page to auxiliary pages:
How much commentary to put here vs. in another page?
Experience from Golden Psalter gallery shows that having two parallel pages with full x-linking is VERY unmanageable and time wasting and futile, way easier said than done. don’t expect to do full x-linking.
OTOH, this page is already overloaded, pushing the limits – it is risky adding commentary into the present page, I lost much content due to STUCK IN A loop for eternity, “AUTOSAVING…”, dirty, impure code need exorcism
[Jan 15, 2025] continuing deepening connections about “one foot forward”: right foot forward / right leg forward is good, stable, equivalent to “weight on right foot”. Best foot forward. Handedness arb maps “R is better than L”. So “best foot forward” means “right foot forward”; “right leg forward”.
King doesn’t put crown directly on king’s head; angel is intermediary doing this.
Stable buildings have scroll of truth-enlightenment message touching sky.
Who owns empty ossuary? Either the king being crowned, or the sage at the stable door of temple – his scroll goes over the ossuary.
There is cut left trunk but not prominent. Prominent cut right trunk/branch – starting at that height, this mushroom-tree is mainly YI form.
[Jan. 16, 2025] Principle of interpreting Eadwine’s images:
Assume he is a mushroom enthusiast and takes every opportunity to signal mushrooms.
Assume that where there is potentially maximum cache of mushrooms, Eadwine has provided evidence of such – look for it; EXPECT confirming clues to be provided.
Assume Eadwine is striving to communicate message of {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs – certainly NOT to “hide” and make “secret”.

Mol’s txt: “The psalm tells of the just manโs trust in God.
“God, holding a scroll, is seated in a temple (v. 5, Dominus in templo sancto suo: Dominus in celo sedes eius // The Lord is in his holy temple: the Lordโs throne is in heaven). To the right, turning to look at God, a man holding a pair of scales (v. 8, Quoniam iustus Dominus et iusticias dilexit // For the Lord is just and loves justice) addresses a scroll towards a group of men with spears who gesture up to him (v. 2, In Domino confido //In the Lord I put my trust). Flying away from the man is a bird, to which he is pointing (v. 2, transmigra in montem sicut passer // get you away from hence to the mountain like a sparrow). Below the bird are three seated men in discussion, โthe upright of heartโ, who are being shot at by three wicked men from below, using bow and arrows; a dark cloud is above them (v. 3, Quoniam ecce peccatores intenderunt arcum: paraverunt sagittas suas in pharetra, ut sagittent in obscuro rectos corde //For the wicked have bent their bow: they have prepared their arrows in the quiver, to shoot in the dark the upright of heart). To the right of the archers three men are demolishing a church with a mallet and pick-axes (v. 4, Quoniam que perfecisti destruxerunt // For they have destroyed the things you have made). Stones from the church walls are falling on the ground.
“At the top right, in a semicircle, is a devil breathing fire and bringing down flames on a group of cowering men, one of them with his cloak billowing in the wind (v. 7, Pluit super peccatores laqueos: ignis, sulphur et spiritus procellarum pars calicis eorum // He shall rain snares upon sinners: fire and brimstone and storms of winds shall be the portion of their cup). The contours of the hillscape frame the various groups.” — Moliero
wheels, {cut right trunk} touches angel’s {lifted garment}
Eadwine pointing out (affirming) the arbitrariness of handedness: This image is left-positive; left = non-branching. upper right tree: hand w/ scroll touches left-branch cap, both left-middle trees have prominent {left cut trunk}, though middle-right tree also has {right cut branch} touching angel’s {lifted garment}.
tree 1 (left): visually {cut left branch} (panaeolus cap). touches God’s circle.
lower right: angel threatens psychonauts, one who tries to look away (in fear; furrowed brow) from open scroll while falsely affirming branching (displays fingers, no thumb sticking out). In contrast, two guys display YI hand and look at angel instead of looking away averting eyes. The angel is taking the first guy’s spear and hitting him w/ its butt.

1:41 am June 10, 2023: The Sacrificer is in the middle of the picture. Left side of image: YI Right side of image: IY His hands held evenly & symmetrically reflect that direction-dependent handedness morphology: Right hand: YI Left hand: IY
1:50 am: God’s hands left to right are YI, IY. The right IY is accomplished upside down, so read angels left hands same: upside down then left to right gives IY, so that their hands form YI IY like God. Angel Left angel’s hands align with sacrificer’s hands. King’s hands: read L to R, forms YI IY.
stable altar to left of temple on right side of image. stable tower to right of temple, on left side of image.
ram horns not splayed; non-branching
2:00 am: archer’s back is to us, so that his left hand forms a YI on the left, and an IY on the right, which matches the image theme.
The military invaders on the wrong side of the track are about to be shot down by the archer, 4 of them with 1 spear. The left (bad) left of lower left tree touches the army on the other side of the boundary. They are on left of image yet their making a YI, which is wrong.
Archer’s right, IY hand is in God’s God’s cloud that controls him. and because he puts left hand’s YI toward left side of image.
Wheat is branching.
Red is used for God’s red torch rays in other images.
Figured out 2:17 am the mystery of the contrasting mushroom tops of temple building: Left is nonbranching sphere. Right is “branching” leaf.
2:19 am: ! upper left: {tower} on right of building means, right = stable.
2:21 am building in upper right means the {gate} is on the left; non-branching is on left.
{building entrance} means the passageway through to stable control.

[12:58 a.m. June 10, 2023] Riddle: YI morphology of middle-right tree: plays with indicating bending the rules or equivalent morphology, ways of depicting IY: sweeping the 3 branches, bottom up:
stem 1: IY, implemented by the equivalence-trick of: terminating the left branch.
stem 2: IY, implemented normally, also has cross-under on right.
stem 3: IY, implemented by the equivalence-trick of visual cutting the left branch, forming a cut branch.
stem 3 has two reds on left, which forms a YY, but they are visually a cut Y branch, and the left is nearer target, the temple.
The visually continuous rightmost branch is a IY b/c left is cut, cross-under.
upper left tree means non-branching (stable, good) is on left. God says right hand up, left hand down. Other figures conforming to or contradicting this is meaningful.
Sacrificer at the altar, washing his hands in a ritual meaning, and sacrificing a bull and two rams.
King’s right foot touches horns of a sacrificial ram.
Left, non-branching (good) branch is touching the right side of temple stable building.
the two trees on left, together signal: YI branching (bad; unstable control) on left, non-branching (good; stable control) on right.
ram at altar = Abraham & Isaac’s ram caught in a thicket.

2:48 a.m. June 11, 2023] {shields} are not for military, they are for avoiding thinking, fear of thinking, trying not to think, desperately, pleading, trying to avert gaze to not get pulled into testing the peak danger threat of catastrophic loss of control just around the next bend, going into seizure and striving to exert inherently possibilism-premised will to control so as to avoid thinking.

“In a semicircle at the top centre, God rests asleep on a bed protected by a curtain (v. 23, Exurge quare obdormis, Domine? //
“Arise, why do you sleep, Lord?). Flanking him on each side are two groups of men seated on benches and holding books and scrolls (v. 2, Deus auribus nostris audivimus. Patres nostri annuntiaverunt nobis //
“We have heard, God, with our ears. Our fathers have declared to us).
“Below, a city is being attacked by many soldiers on horseback with swords, battle-axes and spears (v. 4, Nec enim in gladio suo possederunt terram // For they got not possession of the land by their own sword). Some of them are entering in through the city gate (v. 11, Avertisti nos retrorsum post inimicos nostros โYou have made us turn our back on our enemies).
“At the front, among the soldiers, are sheep and goats, and a man lying dead on the ground (v. 12, Dedisti nos tanquam oves escarum // You have given us up like sheep to be eaten; v. 22, Quoniam propter te mortificamur tota die, estimati sumus sicut oves occisionis // Because for your sake we are killed all day long, we are counted as sheep for the slaughter).
“Inside the walls of the city, on the left, a group of men is prostrated before an altar in a church (v. 25, Quoniam humiliata est in pulvere anima nostra, conglutinatus est in terra venter noster // For our soul is humbled down to the dust, our belly cleaves to the earth).
“On the right, a man holding a large scroll, shield and spear stands before a broken sword, bow and horn on the ground (v. 6, In te inimicos nostros ventilabimus cornu, et in nomine tuo spernemus insurgentes in nobis // We will push down our enemies with the horn, and through your name will despise them that rise up against us; v. 7, Non enim in arcu meo sperabo, et gladius meus non salvabit me // For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me).

Cut right trunk.
Visually cut right branch; crosses under other branch.
Cut right branch, above that (same branch as above, continued).
Sword cut right cap, inside that it cuts right cap of lib cap that’s inside the big cubensis cap.
— Identified by Cybermonk, December 11, 2024 – per my theory of branching morphology developed 2020-2023, which is part of my theory of the main four motifs that are involved and integrated into pilzbaum:
The above image has nav junk in upper right, and fails to show the entire sword, as was intended. The below, bigger crop additionally shows features:
{bent left leg}; {weight on right foot}
{right hand lower than left hand} per major motif in f134.
sword/blade held in right hand, cut item (head branching like a limb off of body) held in left hand.
[3:15 pm December 11, 2024] – just noticed: the red right cap that’s cut by the sword, is also cut visually where its stem crosses behind blue cap’s branch.
I don’t intend to do a full morphy inventory of this tree here now, but, also: left cut branch = another double-cut branch: visually cut + terminally cut above that (to the left of blue cap).
Remember how puzzled I was by the “botched cross-under” in f177 row 1 left, perhaps in 2023.
I had not yet realized, or recognized, the theme/ motif/ technique: {visually cut branch by crossing behind another branch}
Huge misleading thing I just noticed about image paths: The date that’s shown in the image path is not the date of uploading the image to the gallery directory (December 2024); rather, it’s the date on which the present webpage was created (June 2023).
{YI hand} & {mushroom building topper} are examples of: when you gather all variants / instances of a motif, the most detailed and explicit instance enables strong interp & id’n of the most hazy & weak, non-detailed instance. It’s mandatory to work across the images, tracing a given motif.
{mushroom} Motifs
{mushroom building roof peak topper} = mushroom
These instances couldn’t be more mushroom-like. If you wanted to depict a literal closed-veil young cubensis (ball on stem), you’d draw this.
f29 left – cubensis (cream/tan) on temple roof peak:
These mushrooms being poured into a lockbox while standing in a building entryway (right leg touching tower base) are brown, but the mushrooms being similarly poured in f145 are blue, exactly matching this tower topper.
{donkey} = egoic exerter agent; control agent as center of experience of exertion, asserting and inspecting that control-system and experiential worldmodel in the loosecog state causes not having viable control.
To heal is to distinguish between the two states / modes of experiential mental model — what is it like to change how you exert so as to be stable, to receive stability and be given a new garment.

discussed in recording TK_VOX_ 5785.wav, 22 min. vulnerability is your entire existence as a control agent, child is unaware and subject to panic/ {movability}/ reaction to grasping total vulnerability of your control thinking always. Accustomized to seeing the vulnerability, the open scroll touching the lion’s den and another touching the archers who are shooting at him, once you come to grips with your profound vulnerability, now aware of your control thoughts that have already been cre3rated and given to you always., now consciously.
your source of control thoughts is your insider threat, the inner vulnerable womb control insertion receiver, the control receiver = the local control agent, monolithic autonomous control agency or 2-level control relationship of dependence on the creator of the train of control-thought frozen pre-existing in the blue frozen timeless block universe.
{hell-mouth flames}, {furnace}, {fire pit}, {pulled upside down into flames}, {net} = stability
This could be quite a broad theme with many variants: some type of harassing of psychonauts (extreme dread; extreme fear of thinking) is in almost every image, even {furrowed brow} which is ubiquitous.
Plan: group the subtypes here.
applies specifically to advanced psychonauts who have it all under control
{naked} = control vulnerability b/c you aren’t the source of your control-thoughts or will.
removed the egoic thinking {garment}; possibilism-thinking husk that gets cast off at the command of the gods, possibilism-thinking is demonstrated to be unstable and not viable — exerting it causes loss of control when in loosecog state.

Analyzing any Motif in an Eadwine Image Requires Efficient Gallery of All Eadwine Images
To provide a sure reading of {mushrooms}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs in images f134, f145, and f177, it’s necessary to analyze all of the Eadwine images in Great Canterbury Psalter.
{balance scale} Motif
For example, there are 7 instances of {balance scale}.
There are many instances of building, tower, entryway, altar, throne/seat.
Wishy-Washy Use of {handedness} Demands Flexibility and Rationalization
{handedness} orientation is used in highly variable ways, ranging from inconsistent, confusing, systematic (f134), symmetrical, exceptions, and poorly communicated.
Some motifs are exasperating and annoying, a confusing and unhelpful implementation that’s not satisfying.
Between lack of the motif, inversion of the motif, and standard use of the motif — within a given image — I want to yell at Eadwine, “make up your mind, be clear, be consistent” — ranging from sloppy inconsistency, to clever variants, the result is more a raging MESS than masterful.
These images are psilocybin experience puzzles. Some of Eadwine’s puzzles are poorly implemented and are more annoying than impressive.
An unwise number of variants and degrees of variant, Eadwine too often buries the signal in his noise, degenerating to failure to communicate.
If you learn the rules, in a flexible way, and the rules still can’t be applied to many of the images because Eadwine didn’t follow his own rules, it’s a mess.
There’s lots of signal — and tons of noise, that’s inelegant. Eadwine constantly is making up motif patterns and variants and experimenting with options inconsistently, as he goes along.
Image f134 is probably later than others, after Eadwine figured out advanced patterns and used them highly consistently. Be consistent and comprehensible.

Scope: All of Eadwine’s images in Great Canterbury Psalter, not Illuminated Initials, No Text (and not Just the Mushroom-Including Pictures) – this page has no focus on (physical) mushroom imagery.
More interested in {branching} and {handedness} and {stability}.
The first of the four is the least interest: (mere {mushrooms}), {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.

Motif: {stable building entryway}
