Added 2023-11-04 17:55:31 +0000 UTCI’ve been listening to an amazing audible *The Immortality Key* by Brian C. Muraresku. Muraresku explores the role of psychedelic substances, particularly the use of entheogens in ancient religious rituals and their potential influence on the development of early Christianity. He investigates the idea that the use of psychedelics played a significant in the foundations of Western religion and spirituality as it relates to our development and self actualization. One of the highlights I’ve taken away so far is that the censure of our society today is not rooted in the symptoms, such as war, ecological decline and class disparity, but in the root of the problem derived from greed, ignorance and reluctance to think of one as part of a whole humanity. This resonated deeply with me as with Chinese Medicine, we aim to treat the pattern, i.e. root cause of the symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves. In so much applying this root solution to society, maybe psychedelics are the answer? 🤔 Very interested to hear thoughts and feedback 🙏🏼
