I found and confirmed and snagged a full-page screenshot of this HUGE elementary error by Ruck. Good tip from Hatsis and am really glad to confirm Ruck has gone off the deep end on his red and white obsession that I have to battle against to do constructive theory work.
One mystery remains: Why didn’t Irvin catch this huge error when publishing the Allegro 2019? From Irvin’s 2008 color book The Holy Mushroom, Irvin knew the cap isn’t red & white. 🤷♂️
I used Hatsis’ article quoted passage of Ruck’s appendix that’s in Allegro’s SMC book that Irvin republished.
I hate Ruck’s mis-steering the field obsessively based on the colors red and white.
Amanita is a 4th-rate, stomach-hurting deleriant than has nothing to do with psychedelic effects except to serve as a billboard for psilocybin, real, serious, adult mushrooms.
Yet Ruck banked the entire field on OBSESSION over Amanita (like many other sensationalists in the field).
Ruck actually proposes that the engine of the mystery religions is Amanita!
There’s NO WAY that would work!
Psilocybin would work PERFECTLY for that.
And Ruck pull quotes me before, alas, I learned to make a sharp, hard-line gatekeeping differentiation between mushrooms meaning kiddie Amanita, vs. mushrooms meaning actual, real, psychedelic mushrooms: Psilocybin.
So Ruck presents me as if I asserted:
Mixed wine all throughout in Hellenism is mushroom 🍄 wine [picture kiddie Amanita 🍄]
Cybermonk
So I am happy to see Ruck faceplant himself in his aggressive taunting misfire, https://psychedelichistorian.com/roasting-jan-irvin/ — Hatsis totally caught Ruck making this huge false statement: Hatsis quotes Ruck asserting:
“One example alone should suffice to silence the art historians: a painting from a 14th century alchemical manuscript, now in the Bodleian library [sic] in Oxford. It is a treatise discussing the “salamander.” A drawing in the manuscript depicts a man apparently intoxicated, dancing or perhaps staggering, with one hand to his forehead, suggesting that he is dizzy or that he has just had an intense revelation. In the other hand, he holds a mushroom, which he evidently picked from a typical mushroom-tree beside him. The mushroom has a red cap spotted [with] white, and similar mushrooms branch from its stipe-like trunk…7″
[7] Carl A. P. Ruck, Fungus Redivivus: New Light on the Mushroom Controversy in John Marco Allegro, The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross, 40th Anniversary Edition (Gnostic Media, 2009), pg. 376. … as Rush’s above quote indicates, this image is supposed to “silence the art critics”.”
/ end of Hatsis citation of Ruck
One example alone should suffice to silence the art historians: a typical mushroom-tree beside him. The mushroom has a red cap spotted with white, and similar mushrooms branch from its stipe-like trunk:
“Figure 1 (above) is the image in question. As should be demonstrably clear, the supposed “red cap spotted white” mushroom that Ruck describes isn’t that at all. The cap is unmistakably blue; the trunk inarguably green (amanita stems are white). “
Hatsis FTW! 🎉 🏆 🍄–>🗑🔥

Article 2 (later HTML page title, missing appendixes): Roasting Jan Irvin: Critical Historical Inquiry vs. Pseudointellectualism Displayed date: November 2017 https://psychedelichistorian.com/roasting-jan-irvin Good images of mushrooms in art demonstrating that there aren’t mushrooms in art.
Just note carefully the subtitle is NOT “The True History of Psilocybin and Mankind”; it is ONLY “The True History of the Sacred Mushroom“, by which this 2022 Irvin book means only “in the Americas”.
In his new, anti-mushroom context, Irvin overcorrects and doesn’t attempt to reconcile his 2008 truths with 2022 truths. He’s neither interested nor able, despite his lectures about Logos = avoiding self-contradiction.
Irvin is self-contradictory in tone. Unlike Irvin, I am able to explain how both Irvin 2008 and Irvin 2022 are correct. In Europe context, Logos/Eucharist = Psilocybin. In Americas context, Logos/Eucharist != Psilocybin.
Limitation (somewhat poisoned; chalice; somewhat worse than “limitation”/neutral; this book is potentially harmful unless you understand that THIS BOOK IS ONLY VALID IN THE AMERICAS, NOT IN EUROPE CONTEXT.
Irvin 2008 is 100% valid in Europe context: Eucharist/Logos = Psilocybin.
Irvin 2022 remains 100% valid in Europe context.
Eucharist/Logos != Psilocybin and they didn’t use it for spirituality/ mystical experiencing/ religious experiencing (if Irvin is reliable here).
I have not read all the evidence Irvin presents but I have read & followed Irvin enough to trust Irvin.
In the Americas, Psilocybin was used for merely fair or bad uses.
Ambiguity when Wasson denies – *THE* biased, obstructionist scholar.
Per Irvin, it is MADDENING if Ruck and Ott claim that Wasson asserted “mushroom trees mean mushrooms but mean bullies were biased and obstructionist against his insistence that mushroom trees mean mushrooms”.
In fact, it is Wasson who is the biased, obstructionist, rude, mean, nasty, manipulative, prevaricating, double-talking, garbled-writing jerk (and worse! this is tip of iceberg) who denied, decade after decade with never a change of position, Wasson ALWAYS insisted — being THE biased obstructionist — that mushroom trees do NOT mean mushrooms — against Ruck & Ott’s OUTRAGEOUS attempt to rewrite history 180 degrees opposite of truth. Wasson wrote in such a confusion-maximizing, garbled, head-fck way, you can hardly blame Ruck and Ott: I don’t know WHAT the F Wasson is asserting but Irvin & Hoffman is correct, that Wasson consistently restricted Amanita only, to Bible, and only to no later than 1000 BC.
Irvin is unjustified in misrepresenting Allegro as if Allegro is an entheogen scholar. As if Allegro has a chance in hell of serving as a framework on which to build out the science of entheogen scholarship — Allegro put forth no such thing! Allegro can’t possibly serve as anything more than a sideshow. He just doesn’t have that much to contribute, much less serving as the foundation; even Irvin abandoned the project of the book Astrotheology & Shamanism which begins — like subtitle of THM — by stating up front:
The purpose of this book is build out upon the foundation of the field of entheogen scholarship which is Allegro’s SMC.
But SMC is not intended — as Cyberdisciple elaborates — to be the foundation of the field of entheogen scholarship. That’s not Allegro’s vision or purpose.
Yesterday I determined that the nature of Modern Science is to kick Aristotle / Allegro/ Wasson off a cliff, we are not perm’ly beholden to forever build upon their foundation theory. Science is all about doing the opposite: replace the folk shards of misty non-explanations by an initial semi-Theory, and then replace that semi-Theory (eg today’s “Pscyehdelic Science”) by a bona fide theory (the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism ; the Egodeath theory; the Cybernetic Theory of Ego Transcendence) , and then always be ready to re-center and re-found the field, eg if the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism were to be found wanting.
We’d — in STEM fashion — replace or revise per Paul Thagard, the 0.1 gamma or the Beta v1.0 of a explanatory model, or our Ptolemaic v1 model by Copernicus v2 model, etc.
Science is about REVISION and REPLACEMENT to select WHATEVER is the most max explanatory power and utility, usefulness, clarity, purpose-built for the domain per latest undertanding. This mean recognize the poorness & irrelevance of Lash’s “The Wasson theory” [sans, Lash says, deleted Wasson’s awaful wrong turn, ditch Wasson’s mis-selection of Amanita, replace that by Lash’s reboot of Wasson’s “general theory” to delete Wasson’s “specific theory” (that’s Lash term’y)]
Hatsis and Irvin need to learn what Modern Science is: the REPLACEMENT of the fcurrent less-than theory, by a indepenednet superior proper framework — which Allegro cannot serve as, but the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism is totally successful and provides the actual sound solid RELEVANT USEFUL actually Cognitive theory foundation paradigm (Kuhn) to build out per Thagard. Allegro is no such thing and didn’t try to be such a thing.
Even if you pile on the warmed-over exoteric eso’m that’s Irvin & Rutajit book Astroth & Shamm, you cannot do what Irvin attempts to do: build out Allegro’s entheogen scholarship theory to be the optimal useful explannatory framework to serve as the backbone of a future science of entheogen scholarship & Psychedelic Science. It won’t work; it’s a category error.
Hatsis is right that we cannot build out a science field of entheogen scholarship on the trellis of his closet lover Allegro. Reading Allegro Again (Hatsis 2015) Hatsis is right that we need to clear Alllegro off the stage but Hatsis is wrong that we need to close down the stage, of research in mushrooms role in W Culture. We need to begin the real show, (I talked on Egodeath Mystery Show past two days on this analogy). Not close the theater; but BEGIN RESEARCH for real this time NOT like Wasson , NOT like Allegro. Get rid of Wasson & get rid of Allegro in order to BEGIN actual theory consturction and shcolarshiop.
Wasson is the opposite of scholarship eg he censored Brinckmann’s book & censored Panofsky for recomending that book.
Allegro is the opposite of scholarship on entheogen scholarship — people misconstrue what the book SMC is and constitutes: it cannot serve as a trellis to build and hold up a field of entheogen scholarship & psychedelic science, it never was designed to serve that role, and a malformed, stunted field would result.
My Theory is a proper real theory designed and optimized to serve that role. the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism, the Egodeath theory; the Cybernetic Theory of Ego Transcendence; ecq the Eternalism and Control Questionnaire, etc.
My series of main articles 1996/ 1997/ 2007/ 2020a / 2020b / 2023.
My “total reset of field” Plaincourault article. (a negative article to unblock the field, to put car in reverse, change course, then put in gear the right real direction).
ALLEGRO IS A DEAD END FOOTNOTE CUL DE SAC; Allegro = a rough folk precursor that’s less than Ptolemy (earth-centered formal cosmos model).
Allegro isn’t even a reject superseded “theory”, he’s less than that.
Read Irvin 2008 & Irvin 2022 and make them fit together by assigning scope: first book true for Europe & the other book true for Americas.
Psilocybin is used for harm & low purpose in Americas context, as Wasson sought to inflict and PR-lie and misrepresent and mislead people, per Irvin 2022.
AND Psilocybin is used for highest, ultimate application, in Europe context. per Irvin 2008. It’s a tool 🤷♂️
Is electric music good, or bad?
Is cinema good, or bad?
Is culture good, or bad?
Is religion good, or bad?
Is gnosis good, or bad?
Is logos good, or bad? Logos is mishandled and misrepresented in Irvin’s confused, non-integrated hands. Gotta add Psilocybin, the right way, for authentic actual Logos; eucharist; completion of initiation; Transcendent Knowledge.
Irvin provides invaluable contributions, revealing with copious evidence and vigorous original scholarly research, the mythmaking and fabrication of the Wassonian claim and popular narrative that in the Americas, Psilocybin was used for mystical, spiritual, religious experiencing.
Anyone in the field of entheogen scholarship and Psychedelic Science must read Irvin’s books and online articles and take them into account, and must integrate them on Irvin 2008’s behalf and on Irvin 2022’s behalf.
Everything in the 2008 book The Holy Mushroom, and this 2022 God’s Flesh book, is essentially correct and basically sound. Sure, with nits corrected per Jerry Brown & Thomas Hatsis: e.g. St. Walburga holds not simply a literal mushroom, but a vial made to look like Amanita. That’s hair-splitting that doesn’t change Irvin’s essential soundness.
I’ve read aloud Hatsis’ articles and their argumentation on the Egodeath Mystery Show podcast — his arguments are not as relevant or sound as Hatsis thinks, despite Hatsis’ assertions that “You guys got a big problem; how’re you gonna explain mushrooms in negative or non-Jesus scenes?!”
Hatsis’ strange vectors of critique (often premised on anti-mushroom biased assumptions) are just not a problem that perturbs Irvin’s basic rightness.
I’m just hoping that Irvin can break out of the false start of the Allegro/ Hatsis limited, bounded thought-world. To take off, modern Science had to break out of allegiance to the backwards-looking Aristotle framework that was more stunting than empowering the development of knowledge. (Not that I consider Allegro to be as adequate a framework as Aristotle.)
We need to always take the best of Jan Irvin, John Allegro, Gordon Wasson, Thomas Hatsis, and Carl Amanita Promoter Ruck, and completely rework them, with great imaginativeness, being highly selective about frameworks and components, interpretations and presuppositions and attitudes.
Especially, beware of dominant popular narratives like Letcher Hatsis’ factoid of “no psilocybin in England before 1976”, which would be an inexplicable gap which Paul Stamets has said is preposterous and impossible, in a 2007 discussion with Graham Hancock in the book Supernatural.
Hatsis is very correct that the field fell into a pit of the Amanita Primacy Fallacy, and needs to reject that mushroom, which John Rush’s book overly promotes, like everyone else in the field over-promotes, except for Georgio Samorini, myself, Jerry Brown, Gilberto Camilla, and Fulvio Gosso.
Much of what Irvin contributes in this 2022 book is a cautionary story about how not to build a scientific field. I’m glad Irvin is doing this invaluable, centrally important work for getting out of the 1970 rut that this field’s been stuck in, no thanks to the anti-mushroom psychedelic witch, Thomas Hatsis.
I emphasize with Irvin 2008 (the book The Holy Mushroom) against Irvin 2022 (God’s Flesh): Logos is from none other than Psilocybin, and the Eucharist of salvation, righteousness, and regeneration is none other than Psilocybin — even if, per this book, that potential didn’t manifest in the Americas.
The positive findings in Irvin’s book have led to many more findings and also — very important — a stronger foundation of explanatory framework and expanded thinking, far from stuck trapped in 1970’s reduced and narrow options such as Allegro, who is as relevant for this field of entheogen scholarship and Psychedelic Science as Aristotle is.
It’s time to mothball and retire Allegro together with Wasson the idols, treated as if authorities, the mythic legends, so we can form a better, well-formed scientific basis that’s useful and relevant. Look to Jan Irvin’s crucial research to set the record straight and avoid again making such mistakes in this field.
And this does not mean shutting down the field, per Hatsis; it means the opposite: opening up the field, properly this time: be careful not to get prematurely stuck committing to weak, inadequate frameworks to build this Science upon.

Theory of Science when it is NOT a paradigm shift, but creation of a new field of science/knowledge. “Experiments” is not the essence of science, rather, continuous theory replacement and revision.
Modern Science = DITCH RESTRICTION TO the framework built around ARISTOTLE/ ALLEGRO/ WASSON; Being ready to abandon less effective explanatory frameworks to replace or revise them in favor of more effective explanatory fwk construction for useful knowledge. [so i guess “the old theory” would be “the Wasson theory” (Lash) or “the Allegro theory”, but these are beyond lame; they do not, in fact, cover the subject matter!!
Wasson = bully scholarly obstructionist, harresser, name-calling, liar, con artist, psych op operator fkking agent. He’s not a serious theorist in this domain, and he has prevented formation of any theory in this domain: psil in W rel and how it works for cognitive transformation.
Wasson wrote NOTHING about this, same with Allegro, why do ppl pretend Wasson and Allegro contributed anything substantive?
More like ABORTIVE; their role was prevention of any “old theory” from being formed. I’m not playing along with total failure, like the “mysticism” approach designed to PREVENT investigation and AVOID comprehension. These approaches are nothing but poison, counter-productive. Fck it, in 1986, clearly I have to do it myself, obviously. Incompetents, eagerly wallowing & reveling in incomprehension and refusal to look, DENIAL THAT THIS SCIENCE FIELD EXISTS. A garbled mess all headed in the wrong direction, ineffective directions, worse than nothing.
But Wait! Stop – What’s Aristotle’s wisdom framework about entheogen scholarship, we must build on that foundation/trellis! Or Allegro; SAME THING.

Early antiquity = psilocybin = no-free-will (eternalism).
Late antiquity = no psilocybin = invention of freewill (glorifying naive possibilism-thinking). Enlightenment/ Transcendent Knowledge was lost. The backlash against eternalism.
Late Middle Ages = Catholic = freewill dogma = selling salvation for freewill agents. Required forgetting Psilocybin.
Reformation: no-free-will, some psilocybin resurgence. Hypercalvinism Reformed theology built on top of freewill Catholic thinking. Freewill moralism basis with a layer of no-free-will on top.
Modernity = freewill; lost enlightenment/ Transcendent Knowledge. “freedom” the watchword (egoic delusion the foundation for civilization; requires forgetting Psilocybin).

This is an official announcement that I have resolved my uncertainty and now I am certain and now
when I say my 2006 article, I mean the fresco article and
when I say my 2007 article, I mean my main article, in which I combined my 1997 Core theory specification with myth — and images incl branching motifs I didnt recognize,
myth & images; mythemes & art motifs.
I was not branching-literate yet — despite writing at some length about branching versus non-branching — within the domain of Physics!
and had not yet connected that with religious myth.
voice transcription:
A month ago , I finally had the opportunity — or invested the time, to do the research in the amazing Max Freakout archives of the Egodeath Yahoo Group to determine and remember that the core of the 2007 main article was finished and announced in September 2006, but it lacked the introduction, which was separated into the top of the homepage of egodeath.com
whenever I picture the 2007 main article, I always prominently mentally picture the wonderful introduction, which I copied from the homepage into the actual article around maybe June 2007
see my postings on this here perhaps one month ago perhaps February 2023
it was very interesting to find that September 12, 2007 was the first time I posted the word eternalism
and immediately after that I posted my announcement of the final revision of my 2007 main article, in which I copied the broken-up sentences from the mobile version
which I remember that I had used to read aloud the article
I think the zip file is working maybe or the individual MP3 files are working at the homepage of egodeath.com reading aloud the main article –
I have definitely concluded that that mic does not have the most “clarity” — which might explain why it was discontinued
and it had other issues as well , that I had to fix and repair
Read Aloud from Mobile Version of 2007 Main Article
I did not read aloud the article from the main messy academic copy of the article but rather from the mobile streamlined copy of the article
That’s where I first tried to read aloud the article and determined:
I did my bad habit of putting sentences within sentences to make everything really clear
so in that mobile the webpages which are a set of five webpages including the introduction as a separate dedicated webpage
and so this is interesting from a communication point of view:
that I first wrote the body of the article in a messy awkward academic long webpage, then I copied that into streamlined mobile webpages a set of 5 shorter webpages
then I copied the resulting streamlined version of the article from the five mobile webpages back into the long awkward academic single-webpage article
messy academic long webpage
that’s how I leveraged the more polished and streamlined mobile presentation back into the long article
as I announced just after my first posting all about Wikipedia articles about block universe eternalism, I posted that I had broken up the sentences in my long article just like in the mobile pages
then after that announcement I posted the —
the Egodeath community gave me a tip about a superdeterminism article in physics, bracketing my announcement of the final version of the main article which turns out to genuinely be 2007
not , as I have been writing, because of uncertainty, I have been writing “2006/2007 main article”
but now I have done the research to determine exactly what was the difference
And what exactly the dates are, and what changes were made at what dates.
I posted those archive links here about a month ago for all that research, maybe perhaps in idea development page 18 – i probably made a dedicated post.
and now I have determined that the reasonable truth of the matter is that it is not 2006, but rather 2007.
the proper version that I certify, the director’s cut that I authenticate, the real version, the genuine main article is September 12, 2007
and it has not changed one single character since then
A good litmus test is:
how would I feel if salvia divinorum magazine had published in print my September 2006 version of the article?
I would not be very satisfied by that
that is not the real version of the article
but I would completely agree if they published in print my September 2007 final draft , which really in every sense of the word truly was the final draft , because I have never changed a single letter
in fact the worst complaint I have about it it’s not with any of my writing; it’s that I went along with the stupid brain-dead academic counterproductive convention of giving the person’s first name initial only
it would have been a much more useful and Unpretentious
this is the worst thing about it
it’s both a pretentious format
the worst thing about my references section is it is simultaneously pretentious and counterproductive and unuseful , because I fail to give the first name of the author
and that really is the only thing I wish to change other than the and the way that the
the content of the article
dammit I believe that a couple paragraphs were lost here thanks to the flaky app
you are on the leading edge, I am sorry to say , of altered state theory
article on both of these were I feel well beyond my decoding level of
My complaint about the contents of the article I have listed it at the copy which is at this website egodeath theory.wordpress.com ego death theory I have listed my Arata their errata there.
The great news is that the images I provided are really excellent I’m thinking of the Eustace window crossing the river And the Dionysus A
rticle on both of these were I feel well beyond my decoding level of
Motifs and mythemes I am not too sore about that they really were pretty far above are pretty far above my level of literacy motif literacy and maybe perhaps miss theme literacy because the word branch does not appear in the article although interestingly at the beginning of the 2001 discussion group which was five or six years before the main article I did post a lot about Branching and nonbranching but not in the context of mythology, but rather, Physics!
metaphysics of time
I determined this also about a month or two ago and posted about it here
So now I’ve done the research on the exact dates of the main article, and what was changed in the final few revisions
and I have learned that it does contain awesome images , but they were above my decoding level they were above my translation level and I had not yet–
Although I had written in some detail about Branching versus nonbranching within the domain of physics and block universe and Freewill branching, I had not connected those ideas at all systematically to religious myth , but merely had the roots of myth in the Egodeath Yahoo Group posts (copied to egodeath.com if before valen 2004) that would later, like 2010, start to become/ develop into my theory of mythology Branching versus nonbranching , which I finally connected to models of time in physics , for example postings of November 2011 and November 2012 , and then the big November 2013 , and then in Christmas 2015 postings about Thomas Hatsis especially salamander and fire
and today I learned something about my half correct interpretation of Christmas 2015 posting at Egodeath Yahoo Group archives
I was half wrong I was not really getting it when I said in 2015
{Fire} means the altered state.
I don’t know why voice dictation is incapable and stupid when it comes to the phrase
I don’t know why voice dictation is incapable and stupid when it accurately transcribes the word ‘altered’, and then changes it to a bizarre garbled non-word instead.
it’s annoying AF.
altered state of consciousness
altered state of consciousness correct.
You enter an altered state of consciousness when ingesting mushrooms.
that was a successful voice transcription
although the app is screwing up now and deleting entire groups of paragraphs oh joy
POS tech
I was misinterpreting or it was a short coming I was falling short when I said in Christmas 2015 and have maybe said this for some years after that that fire means that roasting the salamander and fire means being in the altered state that’s not wrong like so many theories in the world it is not wrong but it is not sufficient or useful either you’re not getting it
you get only partial credit
You don’t really understand although you’re on your way towards understanding but you do not yet understand if you think that fire vaguely means the altered state of consciousness you’re missing the real point —-
the real point is that fire means loss of control the threat of loss of control and a kind of a real actual loss of control
I am restricted and having to do some wonky editing in this half-working mobile app
like I warned you, you are on the leading edge of altered state theory 💥😵
Buildings collapse when you only recognize, half comprehend that fire means something about processing the salamander to make it imperishable
but it is not just unspecified vague immersion in the loose cognitive state, but very specifically, as we see in the villa of the mysteries, the maiden being
scorched and instructed scorching scorched A scorch on society scorch scorch with a whip the prisoner was scorch with a whip
for example, after my September 12, 2007 announcement of my final draft, which was interleaved with postings about eternalism / superdeterminism
The really good news with this as an outcome of that fact factual finding , the good side effect is that now I can say :
Cybermonk 2006 means my allegro Wasson plane crawled fresco of the town of Plaincourault France and
when I say Cybermonk 2007 article, this means my main article
that it is now much easier to differentiate which article I mean
This is an official announcement that I have resolve my uncertainty and now I am certain and now
when I say my 2006 article, I mean the fresco article and
when I say my 2007 article, I mean my main article, in which I combined my 1997 Core theory specification with myth and images.
theory specification and I combined it and interleaved it with two things really:
myth, & images; mythemes & art motifs
(because 1997 did not have images)
and some commentary about those images in 2006/2007 , but not yet with literacy about {branching-message mushroom trees}, {handedness}, and {non-branching} motifs.
my theory of being radical was shattered and BTFOd
since Nov 2020, especially peak total fail during February 1, 2023 through and February 14, 2023 when I explained how I was obliged to take the radical extreme position of asserting that the Canterbury Psalter image F134 row three middle blue crater is to collect psilocybin
— BUT I colossally totally failed to coherently also say that Therefore the grain dispensary bin bin the two bins filled with grain and bucket distributing pouring grain must be cubensis
which it turns out that it explicitly blatantly is
I had between November 14, 2020 and March 19, 2023 — two years and four months of failure to be radical
I was only inconsistently radical
and in fact left not just a quarter inch gap but I left an 8 feet wide massive giant gap for evil future me to completely demolish and utterly humiliate dumb present me at the time
and so evil future me of March 19 (give or take a day , see the date I announced that the grain bins and bucket explicitly depict liberty caps and cubensis )
which I embarrassed announced that the dumb guy happy at the grain dispensary green dispensary grain wheat grain dispensary was no such thing , and I fallen into Eadwine’s pit of falling for the trap of the initial surface impression
and my gullible way off-base misreading of dumb guy between November 2020 through into March 2023 yesterday was totally and completely wrong and off and it utterly failed to be had utterly And totally failed to be radical Or esoteric by any measure
it was the most rankest of exoteric uninspired outsider those on the outside
I had read it exactly as those on the outside were to be tricked into reading
and I had fallen into the pit set for me for two years and four months despite being The definitive leading edge model of radicalness but
but I turned out to be the model of inconsistent incoherent radicalness instead , because I should not have been aiming to be radical; I should’ve aimed to be the model of being principled consistently thus coherently extreme radical
to do : copy to here my communication with Cyberdisciple November 2020 where I said I’m not going to analyze rows two and three of image F134 because they’re stupid and mundane and just merely show grain
and cyberdisciple replied something like you’re a fool , you have let me down you poser you uninspired exoteric esotericist
either:
black and white absolute assertion that psilocybin is the only way; transformation from possibilism to eternalism (while in the loose cognitive altered state eternalism experiential mode)
or else, the alternative is:
perpetual dead-end, status quo, vague model forever in perpetuity
And sprinkle on the casual incidental assertion of the ahistoricity of religious founder figures to top it off for good measure
no free will also by the way but don’t let on about this part of it Keep it on the down low; in the Unpleasant Experiences secret high-level dimension, in Shadow factor 13 (SHA) (which doesn’t exist),
with the shadow dragon monster item 54: “I was afraid to lose my self-control”;
and: “It was difficult to control my thoughts”, from the Rick Strassmann hallucinogen rating scale (HRS)
I created the Field of Cognitive Anti-Neuroscience
cognitive anti-neuroscience which is the Egodeath theory ; the Cybernetic Theory of Ego Transcendence : the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism
is my approach
because the alternative is deleting cognitive replacing it by neuroscience
I am listening to the podcast episode , that’s a bit of transcribing number 236 at 50:00
non-integrated exoteric esotericism advocate Jan Irvin 2008 Deathmatch against exoteric exotericism Jan Irvin 2022
Jan Ervin at the end of day last night this morning new book 2022 takes a very lopsided scorched earth anti-drug approach he pours it on the heavily totally pours it on the most rank vulgar anti-drug Christian attitudes never mind did it totally contradicts his other book his companion book
his two books destroy each other he is in consistently radical
just like me
I am in the worst possible position to criticize him for marketing his positive radical assertion of logos equals Eucharist equals mushrooms in 2008 holding that book in my left hand while also Irvin 2022 logos equals Eucharist not equals mushrooms because deliver the most vulgar exoteric common place anti-drug attitude now is his new brand never mind that is directly self contradicting himself
no-free-will, but Keep this on the down-low and consistently only assert it during the altered state
And be low-key about this but also this means that during altered state there No free will is the case
but during the ordinary state Freewill is the case
metaphysically flip-flop inconsistent: i assert state-specific metaphysics, destroying and demolishing Chris Letheby’s one-dimensional, static, ordinary state based ; ie, what William James calls ‘pragmatism’ — see the book by Jonathan Bricklin: the illusion of will, self, and time: William James’ reluctant guide to enlightenment,
by which Brooklyn specifically means Jonathan Bricklin Specifically means enlightenment means eternity thinking ; eternalism-thinking
or else, the alternative is:
perpetual dead-end, status quo, vague model forever in perpetuity;
these are the options open to us.
Pick One and be consistent for God sake
The highest value is spiritual religious regeneration as 100% of everyone has always asserted
and
the only way for regeneration is Psilocybin
Voice dictation dictates to me that I am not permitted to use the word that begins with the letter C
or possibly I could be more narrowly hyper specific more narrowly narrowly Nero hyper specific by saying cubensis
this piece of sht voice transcription is going to help me stay with everyday language because it fails to transcribe that word that starts with the letter C and it successfully transcribes the word psilocybin
so that pretty much settles that
it says that that word which starts with the letter C is a typo so that settles that
Self contradictory Jan Irvin lectures us about logos which means consistent avoidance of self-contradiction
contradict yourself much, Jan Irvin , king of self-contradiction 🤡👑 easy to do when you have been a poser pseudo esoteric ; exoteric esotericism all he ever had and that is why it is so easy to ditch and contradict his 2008 book or his earlier mediocrity sterling mediocrity, uninspired

Egodeath Mystery Show podcast episode 236 at 1:05:00
Irvin accuses Wallace enough asserting a falsehood when Wasson sometimes inconsistently says equates Eucharist and logos and with Mushrooms in this context 2022 book specifically psilocybin mushrooms yet somehow we are supposed to excuse and ignore the fact that Irving in 2008 book the holy mushroom asserts precisely explicitly and emphatically that which is the entire purpose of the 2008 book is to assert precisely that which he now
do you know expects us to find Wasson he now expects us to find Wasson guilty for having the audacity to equate and that Wasson is guilty of asserting a falsehood when Wasson asserts and equates that Eucharist equal and logos equals mushrooms which is precisely exactly what Irvin himself asserts in 2008 now I do allow him to change his mind as long as he meets my condition that he must explicitly discussed the fact that he has changed his mind
how can you now take
the rank vulgar outsider
He fails to reconcileThose on the outside anti-drug position without even mentioning that you’re in direct self-contradiction of yourself so so much for your logos again you are allowed to change your position but Irving in 2022 book the beginning of the book the recounts his changing trajectory got his religious conversion
But he fails to reconcile really the truth but may be in his hands the shallow truth in 2008 book THM The holy mushroom that Eucharist and logos equals mushrooms
yet in 2022 book he asserts that Wasson is guilty of asserting a falsehood in asserting that Eucharist and logos equals mushrooms
2022 book demands of us demands of the reader that the reader must hold a rank exoteric run-of-the-mill Christian moralist anti-drug perspective attitude never mind that does exactly 100% contradicts the truth which is presented by his 2008 book which correctly asserts that Eucharist and logos equals mushrooms
My reaction and my response is to triple down and be an absolutist by principle, on principle
be consistently radical; be radically clear, and be radically consistent
please accuse me of being wrong, but for god sake never accuse me of being unclear or inconsistent!
although — here’s the rub — I totally was inconsistent and failed to be consistently radical in November 2020-Mar 19 2023 and esp in February 1-14 2023
my consistently radical clear-cut position statement that I marry and wed : call me wrong, but do not call me inconsistent, and do not call me unclear
The ultimate and highest value is religious regeneration from possibility branching model to pre-existing eternity model
and the only way to do this is through psilocybin
and this means what the Bible says, those who have been turned and converted; those on the inside ; the elect ; the chosen; fished out by God

Addendum March 23, 2023
18:00 4824.wav I have the following quite a good voice recording– I have the following text that,
I did this voice transcription in parallel with doing a voice recording of all of the below
The second phrase of the title of the article my 2023 main article is psychedelic eternal of the eternal living eternity
pre-existence of control thoughts
this means punchy definition of that phrase that term means:
no Freewill and
pre-existence of future control thoughts and
you don’t control the source of your control thoughts and
ADDED LATER: you are vulnerable naked exposed and {you see that you are naked} ; you see that you are vulnerable to thoughts being thoughts being {forced into the female mind} from a hidden external higher uncontrollable source of control-thoughts, {coming into the walled city gate of its own volition from outside the local system.}
That smells like a major important key breakthrough I’ve got a hook into something I’ve got a fish on the line I’m fishing for thoughts I’m fishing upward and I’ve caught some thing I’ve caught an idea the Jesus enters into Jerusalem the political leader savior epiphany appearance outside the city gate wall
The political savior comes to the town of his own initiative saving from outside the system and then the people are brought out from their insular wall boundary through the gate transformed removing the garment removing their ego like possibility branching mental model garment and made to place that garment under the feet
midday addend cont:
you are vulnerable to overpowering déjà vu ; here is where you lose control and die as a control agent and now you perceive the hands crossed with the right wrist no visible no longer hidden by the left limb branching illusion
In other words
triple down on my most controversial and offensive concepts BUT they have to sound distinctive they can’t sound familiar familiar Arity is deaf they have to sound familiar in an otherworldly not that this sounds boring Lee familiar stupid questionnaires from the dumb big Pharma psychedelic industrial complex very boring and downer ideas not that kind of familiarity but rather an otherworldly kind of familiarity that this is ringing a bell from an altered state forgotten
I am thinking that the phrase no freewill is poison and the word determinism is poison because they are overly familiar in a very bad way
and do the same thing with the poisonous bad lexicon that all of the big Pharma psychedelic industrial complex
all of them use their hip to the lingo jargon that is instantly tiresome and a bummer, their stupid phrases their annoying phrases
familiar and frustrating and unsatisfying phrases
these are phrases that are used to delete cognitive psychedelic affects
these are phrases that are an attack that’s trying to remove Dionysus from Psilocybin experiential state state of consciousness
Their soul-killing lexicon
Get Real
A Complete Mystical Freakout
You Had an Authentic Complete Mystical Freakout
the soul killing term bunk terminology thats used to replace and delete and eliminate everything good in the Freakout peak true mystical Freakout break Roland Griffiths stupid Walter Stace 1960 book
break their wrong lexicon
their conceptual vocabulary is crap
They bring us a incomplete, non-mystical experience
and when they say “mystical”, every time they said they ruin the word , because what they mean by the word is not what real people mean by the word
real Mystics have nothing to do with this word mystic mystical experience as used, as Misused, as abused by Walter Stace 1960
And then taken up by Timothy Leary when he converted the book Mysticism and Philosophy into a bunk questionnaire or a set of 38 questionnaires Walter Panki 1962 April 20 became 1963 dissertation which you can read all 38 1/2 questionnaires in that dissertation which became the godforsaken so called mystical experience questionnaire
which is no such thing
in which no mystic whatever recognize
unicorns and rainbows
And Studeris 2010
refers to this single book but they do it in a dishonest way
they say “the scientific literature” such as end note reference citation number 20
this construction in the article is a way of hiding the fact that what they call it what they sell and what they falsely market with false advertising as the so-called “scientific literature”
when they say such as citation number 20 they’re hiding the fact that they only got one flimsy wrong bad book
We’re trying to sell this flimsy book and
they are trying to sell this flimsy book as this so called “the scientific literature on psychological experiencing including Mysticism”
scientific literature? get out of here!
scientific the
here’s our list of scientific literature such as this one book , 63 years out of date
some “scientific literature foundation basis” they have there:
the only way through which we have salvation regeneration and entering into heaven is through psilocybin

and I have learned my lesson from failing to look at row two right and only saying row three middle is a blue crater to collect cubensis

this is failure — failure to be consistently extreme radical
relevant to add the above to this morning’s post [done here now]
psychedelic eternalism : The second phrase in the article title is the excellent ultra powerful phrase Psychedelic Determinism — psychedelic eternalism.
in the article the solution to whether I should introduce con controversial topics assertions is to make them more concentrated, more condensed
in my definition of psychedelic eternity model —
aside: I need an alternative to the word a every day language alternative to the word eternal ism
Block universe eternity
preexistence of control thoughts
no Freewill
although I do feel that no free will connotes domino chain determinism
it is I feel I have this gut sensation
something has gone wrong when I open up an opening in my article to let in the unwashed outside world
for example if I were to even mention the phrase fatalistic determinism, I am welcoming now I’m bringing in polluted unclean concept labels and network connotations and this is harmful
I can feel it in my gut I can feel the harmful in my gut a harmful modes of thinking the ruts of thinking ruts the rut caught in a rut of thinking of thinking
and I have these meters I have these detection meters and I’m there meters of telling me bad things are happening when you say the phrase no free will
bad things are happening because you’re you’re alluding to an old unproductive failed dead-end cul-de-sac debate , when you bring in that concept label , you’re also importing an entire raft of confusion
this might make it into it this is in a voice recording I just made it might make it into an episode of
come on broken voice recording work voice transcription
I just recorded a great point that might make it into an episode of Egodeath mystery show and this page is a placeholder for that because I think it’s a very good point
Every entheogen scholar is dysfunctional and self defeating and foolish regarding strategy
they love to leap upon and quickly embrace with enthusiasm the most stupid lunkheaded unimaginative zero-imagination reading of Genesis chapter 2 verse 16-17 and Genesis chapter 3
they positively love and enjoy taking a stupid low IQ exoteric Reading to deliberately project, committing the massive error of presentism
they love to depict and they enjoy describing Genesis as drug prohibition modern 20th century drug prohibition
and this is dumb this is incredibly dumb incredibly stupid and
they are putting people in jail through their lack of engaging their brain
they are this kind of reading that they use, which is the low one the most vulgar people in society, the most unwashed masses of people with no imagination at all, “those who are on the outside”, those who cannot or refuse to think of the Bible in anything except a literalistic way
this seems to include entheogen scholars
who Positively enjoy projecting into Genesis modern drug prohibition
and thus they encourage the Supreme Court to read the Bible as prohibiting psilocybin, when it does no such thing
Yes if you’re a stupid person, yes in that case yes the Bible does say you are not allowed to ingest psilocybin
but if you are among the elect and if your IQ is above 80 and you actually turn on your brain and stop reveling in prohibitionist reading, misreading of the Bible
there is plenty of room for esoteric reading
but your inferior exoteric reasoning/ reading is incapable of addressing the obvious conundrum puzzle that obviously genesis three poses for us
how is your lame-brain misreading of the Bible going to explain where God tells a falsehood:
when God says you are not allowed to ingest psilocybin because if you do , you will certainly die on that day , and yet the snake says no you will not die on that day
so which one of them is correct
you can’t even consider this question until you grow up out of your immature literalist exoteric outsider clueless reading,
dumb as a rock = entheogen scholarship , with extra low intelligence when it comes to strategic strategy of repeal psilocybin Prohibition For God sake
People who talk about “ego dissolution” all day — and they reject the idea of Egodeath
half of them reject the idea of ego death as an appropriate descriptor, but every tradition says that they are dead wrong
they appear to have never heard of the idea of Ego death, and so it doesn’t even register when God says “you will certainly die that day” and the snake says “you will not die but you will gain wisdom knowledge of good and bad”; knowledge of left foot and right foot
but these scholars act like they’ve never heard of the word Ego death before
they act like they’re not capable of thinking
there they act like they’re not capable of taking an esoteric reading
and the book of Gospel of Mark and the gospel of John are filled with such mocking of outsiders who stupidly take a literalistic exoteric reading
which is typical of entheogen scholars, and it leads people to prison, because the outsider exoteric view, that reading, says that the Bible equals drug prohibition; throw people in prison
The infantile, uncritical, unthinking, self-defeating and defeatist mentality of approaching of the way that entheogen scholars approach reading Genesis 3 is part of the problem
it helps to prop up Prohibition
stop reading in an idiotic and self-defeating way
it’s causing people to be behind cages
get a clue
wake up
Stop acting like you’ve never heard the analogy description of ego death and the experience of dying in the altered state
you act like you guys have never heard of the idea
“wow I’ve never heard of that completely strange brand new idea”
why the hell don’t you apply that idea to reading Genesis?
let’s see some engaging of brain , people!!
stop reveling and stop enjoying applying the most stupid interpretation that you can think of, just like every unwashed masses of unimaginative people
they have a good excuse.
you entheogen scholars do not have a good excuse for acting stupid in your self-defeating misreading of the Bible
get a clue! read it in the proper psychedelic esoteric way, obviously!
wtf, dumasses; = entheogen scholars
Please ignore the stupid heading that some moron added that says the fall — This is not in the Bible
the Bible does not say “the fall”, so this is a False translation of the Bible
just like Dittrich falsely in 1985 names his high-level dimension dread of ego dissolution
OK you’ve already just lost the game
you’ve already made a fundamental misinterpretation before you even began
it is not fear of ego dissolution, and this is not the so-called “the fall “
Stop importing your misreading into the Bible, its sending ppl to prison
great episode and I am really really glad — that’s two reallys on the Max Freakout Really scale — that the book is everything I hoped for
it clarifies Jan Irvin’s latest position which is a wrong incorrect or partially correct position that mixes together truth and confusion and misrepresentation of the potential of psilocybin and the role of Psilocybin in western religion
I have been wondering ever since Jan Irvin’s religious conversion from gnostic media to logos media and
he recounts the very useful he
he recounts his conversion and
I have been wondering ever since then what is his view on psilocybin in western religion and the relation between revelation , The relation between Psilocybin and Christian religious regeneration and salvation , which he does not discuss enough in this book
but he does discuss it enough that it is clear which of the two directions he went
because I was wondering which of the two directions is he going to go
I have been wondering that since 2014 or since a few years after that when I learned that he had changed direction
I followed him somewhat but there was a gap during which he changed direction which I determined a little bit later
been burning with curiosity since sometime after his 2014 religious conversion do you know
what is his story now what is this official position statement which he has finally delivered in this book finally , which of the two moves is he going to do ??🤔
I reasoned around 2016 is he going to become a sophisticated balanced thinker and give a full fleshed flushed out rounded account of the pros and cons and capabilities and risks of Psilocybin? highly unlikely
more likely Jan Ervin I reckoned more likely he would flip from an absolute positive view Join absolute simpleton to an absolute simpleton negative view of Psilocybin as I predicted
though it is it is a difficult guess
either approach that he takes it has a certain difficulty to it
either I would expect him to do the very hard work of becoming a sophisticated balanced thinker , which is kind of improbable
or else I would expect him to take a simple minded purely negative view of psilocybin, which is what he did as he states in this book That psilocybin is the enemy of logos and Christianity but that is a very difficult position for John Irving to hold it is not a tenable position
This is a harm of the Amanita Primacy Fallacy is that he has ended up with no comprehension of mushrooms because he equated in the past the word mushroom is an exact synonym with the word Amanita
or at least on the whole, that’s what the field did
that was the wrong bet that they made
that was the myopic shortsighted Short that this field did
and so he ended up with no real no actual comprehension of mushrooms, because he didn’t pay attention to psilocybin but mistakingly bet everything on Amanita instead
and so he ended up with no comprehension of how mushrooms transform the mental model and cause religious regeneration
and so we can see since he had no decent theory of mushrooms , we can imagine how easy it was for him to flip from a simple minded positive view to a simple minded negative view, because he has no idea about the ultimate effects of psil mushrooms
so there’s a certain difficulty in him taking that route which is why it was difficult for me to guess which of the two positions would you take either the difficult position of delivering a rounded comprehensive
Take which is difficult to do and takes a special kind of vigorous work different than the kind of vigorous work which he specializes in
or else would he take a purely negative you which is difficult to do it is a simple easy move to make but a very difficult move to defend , given that it is false and out of touch with reality about Psilocybin
And fails to have any explanatory power to explain how we get logos and explain how we experience mystical religious revelation conversion
his simple minded negative stance that he chose to take that fork in the road is highly untenable add difficult and impossible to defend
so either of the two options is difficult in some way for Jan Ervin to pull off, its difficult in someway for Jan Ervin to pull off
Difficult in some way for Jan Irvin to carry out
either he has to carry out the hard word work of delivering a broad-minded full featured analysis and assessment and accounting of the broad Rich roll of psilocybin in religious conversion and mythology history,
or else he asked to conduct the hard work of the impossible task of defending a simple-minded absolutist negative read on psilocybin
he has to Defend, he has committed himself to defending an impossible -to-defend, indefensible position, that psilocybin is entirely harmful and not the source of religious regeneration conversion salvation transformation enlightenment etc. — the very source of the logos, which he pretends to be the figurehead representing
as if he knows anything about logos — He says Logos is the enemy of psilocybin — he might as well be hanging upside down in a tree
Did not follow his changes in real time but I checked in periodically
But it became increasingly unclear he is painting himself in a corner so what is his current view has he switched from saying psychedelics are entirely positive to saying they’re entirely negative it sounds like he has made that flip and I would expect him as a one dimensional black and white thinker I would expect him to make a absolutist flip like that because the simple minded thing to do
not saying that he is intellectually lazy rather than being vigorous , but he is intellectually lazy in that he is narrow and simplifying and oversimplification of the nature and historical role of psilocybin
A distinct discussion analysis is the identify already identified topic that’s challenging to approach is the question of given that our ancestors in mythology held that the greatest good is to use psilocybin to transform the mental model and that the greatest value was to be religious in this way is that true in fact is that objectively true that using that transforming the mental bottle to be aware in relationship with God is the highest value were they were the wrong
transforming the mental bottle model to be aware of God and of two level control end of the block universe pre-existence of future control thoughts and everything that’s in mythology our ancestors held those are the highest value but objectively speaking how can we assess whether they were correct
on what basis can you say that the the greatest good in life is for you to have religious regeneration and transformation of your mental world bottle (and that this happens to be done through psilocybin which is kind of distinct point)
on what basis can we judge whether the tradition is correct or incorrect given that the tradition the religious mythology tradition and art motifs of {branching-message mushroom trees}, {handedness}, and {non-branching} motifs All assert they definitely assert that the greatest good is relationship with God and religious salvation religious conversion from possibilism to eternalism
Can we prove that objectively speaking the greatest mature adult developmental form of the human is transformation to block universe religious awareness in the altered state in the mystic state
My strategic approach of how should I move forward is that I am going to assume that the tradition is correct I am going to affirm and axiomatically assume I am going to affirm and assume that the religious mythology tradition is correct in its report and claim and assertion that transformation from possibilism to eternalism Mental world model is the greatest good mental world model is the greatest good how can you reboot me when I say that you are only in a childish form of development of mental development or can Wilbur psycho spiritual development if you are still within your sin still stuck retarded and stunted and you have not completed your proper well form development but you are in an incoherent self contradictory dysfunctional unhealthy incompleted state a tadpole not a frog
if we have a bunch of creatures that are stuck in their chrysalis stage they are stuck in a warm stage instead of becoming a butterfly that group of creatures would be considered objectively scientifically immature incomplete incorrect merely useful and not in the proper well formed adult form they are in fact dysfunctional objectively speaking
this is what every religion says
this is what every mystic says
this is what every religious mythology says
they all agree unanimously that we are to develop into our mature form and that we are sinful and self contradictory and unhealthy and dysfunctional when we are stuck in the childish form which is possibility thinking instead of block universe thinking
(and it happens that we achieve this transformation through psilocybin, as a distinct point) as backed up by the new book by Jahan Khamsadadeh , Psilocybin Connection
So I am on extremely solid ground when I assert that we must comprehend this transformation from possibilities thinking to block universe thinking with two level control instead of autonomous monolithic ego control model and I am also strongly asserting that there is only one place the logos comes from and that salvation comes from and religious revelation etc. enlightenment Satori and that is from Psilocybin
yes I am willing to commit and marry and wed and sleep with and carry the burden of being the single plant fallacy , limited to only 300 species of psilocybin-containing mushrooms — this is speaking in a shorthand way
I am not going to insert an 800 word essay here explaining that ergot is equivalent but there are complicated social cultural assumptions and presupposition confusion etc. blah blah blah
it boils down to executive elevator speech the simple anti-confusion word the anti-evasion word Psilocybin is the keyword that will set things straight it will work all will be good and if you want to use for Ace for HODIPT obviously that’s equivalent but here we’re talking about the history of mythology in which it is extremely appropriate and a huge the biggest gap the gigantic gap in Entheogens Scholarship right now is the egregious lack of respect for the main most important and most definitive chemical plant , psilocybin
I am on the most solid ground that one could possibly be on when I am the evangelist of the Uber one and only against a Amanita
you see all I’m doing is I’m switching from the Amanita Primacy Fallacy to the Psilocybin primacy truth
So every statement has a degree of truth and the degree of limited accuracy and in such fashion I am certain that the one and only source of religion is psilocybin which is far more true than falls and
making this a surgeon is far more helpful than harmful
making this assertion far more true than falls
Jesus Christ ! voice transcription cannot even handle the word false false falsehood falsehood
As I have explained it is a you guys (everyone’s intensive evasion they’re always trying to evade Psilocybin
my commitment to the Psilocybin 300-species single-plant fallacy is a required and highly effective, correct winning move, appropriate, fully justified corrective, an anti-evasion strategy given that everyone in the world their top move is to evade psilocybin, because it’s the one thing that actually works and is not bullsht — And are you going to say I have not been successful with this strategy
I have won the Internet by employing the highly successful strategy
so if you complain and because I grouse because I single-plant, grouse — if you grouse because I have single-plant fallacy overly-emphasized Psil, boo-hoo 😭 — I won everything by betting rightly everything on Psilocybin against the market invested in Amanita cannabis scopalamine– losing bets
that’s the top move their standard number one move that they always do is to evade psilocybin
so I have to do the countermove you made me do it , you made me do it it is a strategic requirements
I have no choice but to emphasize psilocybin given that everybody’s top goal in life to put the spotlight on anything in the world other than psilocybin
even Paul Steinmetz fell into this in his 1996 book where he was incapable of directing his attention to the topic of Psilocybin in Europe
And then later he complains the people falsely spread the falsehood that there was no psilocybin in Europe — but it’s a topic that he himself was incapable of thinking about
Motivation for this posting is that I think this idea has a huge amount of potential and so I want to make sure to hang onto this idea prominently and move forward with it and develop it
because my poor way of expressing in the past was every author our work as critics as scholars our work is to identify how each author has and each book brings contributions and each scientific paper rings contributions and limitations brings contributions and look and limitations
my idea my expression there brought contributions and mixed together with poison because that word limitation has very misleading and a gigantic vulnerability
Each article and book and scientific paper and online Egodeath theory assertion theory assertion brings contributions and but also it brings not merely limitation but outright harmful misleading lexicon and presuppositions and liabilities built into it that are interwoven with the contribution and so you’re real work as a scholar is the disentangle
The interwoven contributions which are interwoven with poison with harmful miss leading burdensome liability error and confusion heading in the wrong direction and commitment commitment to heading in the wrong direction is baked into and deeply interwoven and fused interwoven and fused with the contributions so you’re at work as a scholar is two un-weld And disentangle and forcibly filter out and tear apart the contributions from the poison
This book is a must have you have to get it if you’re doing work in this field of visionary plants he makes invaluable definitive position statements which are incorrect a lot of incorrect position statement and it is a poor analysis and all kinds of things are wrong with this book but it is mandatory it is packed with information and it is packed with information about the Jan Irvin trajectory of analysis and exposes
it is filled with extremely valuable information mixed together with poison misleading reductionism narrowing and exclusionary approach
misrepresenting logos as if it is the enemy of Psilocybin which is the opposite of the truth
Jan Irvin 2022 book brings valuable truth and poison
Same with who he critiques, he exposes entheogen scholars Wasson especially , for fabricating the deceitful misleading claim that psil in americas was religious / spiritual/ mystical; it wasn’t.
echoing refrain about Irvin’s reasoning in this 2022 book: IT DOES NOT FOLLOW, he who lectures on Logos, IT DOES NOT FOLLOW. ✋
It does not follow but the one and only aspect or story or dimension of psilocybin is that it is a suggestion chemical or that it is all about lies or did it has no mystical potential or that it is the enemy of logos in fact psilocybin is the
source of logos and psilocybin is tantamount to logos and psilocybin in fact is the Eucharist despite the fact that malicious social engineers lied about the use of Psilocybin in America the Americas for mystical experience also I believe that they did use psilocybin in the Americas for mystical experiences though it is a more complicated story

Irvin’s Incoherent Positions
SO WTF IS IRVINS POSITION????? RE: PSILOCYBIN IN Christianity.
THM 104: “there is enough compelling evidence to show that Christianity itself is based on entheogens.” – Irvin
Gold (Valuable) In THM
I’m featured in THM, eg ‘Hoffman’ discussed eg p 102
p104 top: Irvin criticizes Ruck as “feeble” for limiting mushrooms in Christianity to mysticism and heretical sects. I applaud this spot-on criticism.
Ruck — like Lash — is so noxious, falsely giving credit to Wasson for asserting mushrooms in Christianity when he did exactly the opposite! p. 104, Irvin nails it here.
Wasson is a major jerk obstructionist attacking everyone rudely for decades, insisting no msh in Christianity, calling them ignorant of the art authorities — and then we’re supposed to credit Wasson with discovering and asserting msh trees in Christianity?
WTF RUCK!! FISHY AF. Irvin’s right, this STINKS! TOTAL B.S., RUCK!!
This is maddening, Ruck, writing “Wasson’s conclusion”?! WTF do you mean, “Wasson’s conclusion”?
Wasson concluded that there’s NO MSH TREES.
Irvin’s accusation here is that Allegro ASSERTED msh trees [i disagree; overcredits Allegro], and Wasson REJECTED msh trees, then Ruck robs Allegro of his discovery and attributes it to Wasson.
Problem: Cyberdisciple points out that Allegro’s book is not about msh trees.
I say we should not use Plainc as proxy for countless thousands of msh trees (or we should realize the risks if we do that).
This is rewriting history, Ruck! No wonder Irvin 2008’s pissed off at the whole field of entheogen scholarship.

url https://www.amazon.com/dp/0982556225 – false title; the book only gives PART OF the true history; the book is an exercise in narrowing reductionism and deleting huge areas of Psilocybin history.
Episode Title
1% of the True History of Psilocybin
Logos is Psilocybin is Eucharist
Irvin is a blind man describing an elephant, this is not a sophisticated error; this is an extremely elementary, childish error on Irvins’ part but this is standard for this stunted field.
I explain why Irvin takes and gets such a narrowed, reductionistic (exclusionary, narrowing) perspective, telling THE LIE IN THE VERY TITLE, “THE” TRUE HISTORY:
The book actually only covers 1% of the true history, and deletes and omits the rest as if it doesn’t exist.
It conflates one part of the elephant with the entire thing – a very crude, elementary error, all too typical of this extremely charged field of entheogen scholarship.
Status quo; same as ever, business as usual for this field.
Also the poison aspect of this book can be seen in terms of an overreaction like Hatsis.
Just because Ruck and Wasson and Allegro etc. committed the Amanita Primacy Fallacy, it does not follow, that no Christian ever ingested a Psilocybin mushroom.
No Psilocybin, No Logos, Eucharist, Christianity, Salvation, or Regeneration
Fantastic show I read Jan Irvin book at critique his narrowing reductionism and false dichotomies. Yes, Irvin, psilocybin was abused, but this does not at all affect its positive use. Logos is Psilocybin is Eucharist.

Charles Stang of Harvard Divinity School, April 27, 2023, re: Muraresku’s book The Immortality Key, “I don’t think there there’s any good evidence yet for the Eucharist, and I don’t think there will be evidence.“ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQPTb5u9F-U&t=3978s (1:06:18) “Are Psychedelics Theologically Significant for Judaism?” Check what exactly the Eucharist question is, per TIK. “evidence for the Eucharist” (?)
“Throughout millennia, Jews have explored individual and communal consciousness through a variety of techniques and traditions. More recently, Jews have played an outsized role in the “psychedelic renaissance” as researchers, practitioners, and advocates, including prominent leaders. A surge of interest in these substances creates an opportunity to reflect on non-ordinary experiences in Jewish life and theology more broadly. To what extent have altered states of consciousness been theologically significant for Jewish theology and practice?
“In what ways, if at all, have ingestions of psychoactive substances transformed Jewish theology? And how might this all relate to contemporary Jewish experiments with psychedelics?
“In this panel, such questions will animate discussion among leading scholars of Jewish mysticism. Through considerations of historical, phenomenological, and hermeneutical dimensions of Jewish theology, these scholars will reflect together on the cultural significance of Jewish psychedelia today.

dosage for optimal borderline control stability
the open-scroll message is about balancing between terror dread of what control-thoughts will arise, taking desperation action (physical and mental) to avoid catastrophic control-loss, depicted as angels throwing arrows down at cowering guys covering eyes, desperately trying to avert their gaze. Or one group of guys spears the group of guys in a furnace.
Repeated exposure to alternating betweeen trying to sttay calm and don’t panic and bregging for mercy and pleading and thinking up deal, how to make a deal: if I make it through this, will never violate the …. you’ve
You broke (the rules) You’ve been (a fool) The little doll is you, yeah Nowhere to hide (your fate is in his hands) Your time has come (you’l live to his commands) I’m warning you The killer who remains a mystery When it’s your time I wonder how you’ll do Yor kind of trouble’s running deeper than the sea — Bob Daisley
What is a successful trip? Succesful dread, panic, washing of the garment, looking for a thicket-caught ram to take the brunt of {wrath} — lower controller avoiding is made to avoid going against the uncontrollable higher controller.
Busy housekeeping cleaning house to avoid thinking about vulnerability to catastrophic loss of control, indicates overdose.
One should have to REACH for instability, not be fully occupied in struggling to avoid thoughts being led to catastrophe — being led and force forced to panic and fall over and lose balance.
The dragon terrifies the sages and demands {washing the garment clean} (mental worldmodel).
Isaac needs a lamb to take the blow, to deflect to or consume the wrath of transgressing control limits. Like a heat sink or a lightning rod. Demonstrate non-conflict against the uncontrollable source of thoughts.
Cross-Behind Branch = Cut Right Trunk
[6:41 p.m. April 17, 2023] while listening to Egodeath Mystery Show Ep245f near 55:00 discussing image f134 Great Canterbury Psalter row 1 left, the cut branch of pink key tree matches the cut lower part of pink-capped branch:
my new point/ grasped: THIS IS WHY YOU PUT THE RIGHTMOST, I BRANCH CROSSING BEHIND THE RIGHT-HAND Y BRANCH: BECAUSE THIS CAUSES THE CUT BRANCH TO BE THE I BRANCH; EVERY TIME YOU DO THIS, YOU CREATE A CUT RIGHT TRUNK MORPHOLOGY; A CUT BRANCH. Make the best, “I” branch, have the visual cut. We see this fully explored/demonstrated in image f177 row 1 left.
the key was that the right cut trunk of the pink key tree exactly matches the lower part of the pink-capped branch; we are to read the lower segment of any crossed “I” branch as “equivalent to cut trunk”.
Motivation for Page: told publisher Bubble is at both sites, its not
compare Metzinger books 2003 – did he read Crash Collusion? 🤔 or my Prin Cyb site 1997 theory spec – or maybe he got the idea from, every 2-bit Newage book in 1985

Hatsis’ Retitled/Truncated/Mis-dated article Roasting Foo an Exercise in Tilting at Windmill, All Authors Are Unprofitably Debating the Wrong Thing: “Was there a Secret Christian Amanita Cult?”
The title of the article is wrong at Hatsis’ later websites. It’s Roasting the Salamander, not Roasting Jan Irvin.
The new title of the article is TOO AMATEUR AND INSULTING TO PUBLISH/CITE. It’s a puerile childish personal attack, even the original title was too insulting.
The date of the article is wrong at Hatsis’ later websites. It’s 2013, not 2017.
I could INSTANTLY pound out a valuable article explaining everything worng with the field and how that’s reflected in the Ruck / Irvin/ Hatsis thread of argumentation.
THAT is the article to cite Hatsis — NOT in my article on branching-message mushroom trees. Hatsis contributes nothing but … the exchange and debate between Ruck/ Irvin/ Hatsis , all discussion around Dancing Man image, is nothing but confusion and pulling … in the wrong paradigm of Amanita Primacy Fallacy.
The Ruck/ Irvin/ Hatsis trajectory of treatment of these topics is nothing but an excercise in Amanita Primacy Fallacy.
An article would be very interesting, about that, a different article, “WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE PREVIOUS REPLACED QUASI-PARADIGM THAT RUINED THE FIELD OF ENTHEOGEN SCHOLARSHIP”
Hatsis’ article (& the surrounding publications by Irvin/ Ruck/ this field’s confused authors) is INTERESTING AND HISTORICALLY VALUABLE FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS.
I’m actally having to hold back from spending time writging a very interesting article that’s trying to come out while I write my OTHER article on the OTHER topic: branching-message mushroom trees.
Roasting Entheogen Scholarship: How the Field of Entheogen Scholarship Was Malformed by the Amanita Primacy Fallacy
I recommend the article WHEN we are discussing the folly of the field of entheogen scholarship.
If I write an article about what WAS wrong with the OLD, REPLACED, Ptolemaic, non-theory, where Plainc fresco is mis-treated as defining the paradigm of the field’s explanatory framework,
if my project in this article is to explain why Samo Figure 20 1998 is a total disaster,
if my article’s purpose is to explain why folk sub-science is garbled harmful confusion,
and how the authors are confusing each other in their debate over Phrenology and Wm James’ scientific research in e.s.p., and 1904 theories of Phlogiston,
… then I recommend we must discuss the trajectory and revisions of Hatsis’ Roasting the Foo article where he deleted the appendixes and says “see appendix”.
Where he changes the date from 2013 to 2017, and what that reveals about this would-be “historian”/”scholar”.

Does Irvin 2022 Every Explicitly State the Falsehood that Logos/Eucharist != Psilocybin? Such a Claim Would Claim that Irvin 2008 (THM) Is False
Irvin directly accuses Wasson of misrepresenting Mex views of psil.
Irvin directly accuses Wasson of malice as motivation.
Does Irvin directly accuse Wasson of asserting falsehood when Wasson asserts Logos/Eucharist = Psilocybin? Wrinkle: If Wasson asserted Logos/Eucharist = Psilocybin, that would contradict Wasson’s claim that Msh trees != msh.
Further wrinkle: Ott & Ruck very falsely claim that Wasson asserted msh trees = msh.
