There's no proof (yet) that the drugs and gun belonged to Koetting. They could have easily belonged to his roommate. When cops raid a place and there's no clear indication who owns the illegal stuff, they usually charge both occupants, hoping one will nark the other one out. A little critical thinki...

The Golden Dawn brought many different systems together. Personally, I work with both shamanism and ceremonial magick. I see no evidence that any one path has a corner on all magical practices or knowledge. I know some traditionalists feel that the paths should not be mixed, should be kept pure, but...

Some occultists are very much against drugs. In my opinion, drugs and magick are intimately interrelated. Castaneda's descriptions of drug use in shamanism should be read by anyone with questions like yours. The current government inspired drug war hysteria serves to seperate society from its roots,...

Hello and welcome.

Find a Stop sign and Some Car Window Paint. And write "War" on the bottom of the stop sign. The Green Panthers used to give away a template that said "the war on drugs" that you could take to a print shop and have copied on sticker paper (crack and peel) for the same purpose. Th...

Interesting posts. Keep it up.

“Anarchism is not a romantic fable but the hardheaded realization, based on five thousand years of experience, that we cannot entrust the management of our lives to kings, priests, politicians, generals, and county commissioners.” Government breaks your legs then hands you a crutch and says, “See if...

My Favorite is Bowie's Station to Station.

Welcome Onyx Flame.

The magic inherent in the DMT experience does not download into a primitive language like English well. It's why I have grown tired of the discussion as well. You either know it through experience or you don't. Those who know it, like Dr. Rick Strassman, call it the spirit molecule. I'm sorry that a...

Entheogens can open the third eye in ways that magical practice can't. See the works of Terrance McKenna for his descriptions of the self transforming machine elves evoked with DMT. Also see Rick Strassman for his work with other world entities and DMT.

Because at the end of the day, there are safer, more reliable and more consistent ways of achieving the same effects without the use of drugs - they just happen to require more effort. . Not everyone would agree. There are those that believe, going all the way back to sects of Zoroastrianism, that ...

I have studied the pharmacology of cannabis for more than twenty years. I have never seen any evidence that cannabis calcifies the pineal. After several hours of research, I found claims that it isn't good for the pineal, and claims that it decalcifies the pineal, but no claims or evidence that it c...

Hecate's Fountain by Kenneth Grant.

I believe I'm asleep and dreaming this entire universe into existence. I'm the only thing that's "real". Eventually, I will awaken, and this universe will cease to be.

Unfortunately, it was recreational use that blew open my doors of perception. And it was legal for such a short time that I never got the chance to use it ritually. I'm not even sure which synthetic cannabinoid it was, but was sold under the brand name Crystal Skull.

Well...hello...welcome.

A synthetic cannabinoid blew my doors of perception farther open than any magical training or ritual ever did.

Hello and welcome.

The only sexual pervision is none.

I tried it with limited success.

Interesting, and polite discussion. A pleasure to read.
Yes, there is justified cursing. And yes, it is abused sometimes. Not everyone is as thoughtful and moral as the two of you.

I agree with RoseRed

Facts are neither generalizations nor expressions of anger.

That the government lies, especially about drugs, is hardly paranoia. Reefer Madness is a good example. And the fact that a theory is old does not necessarily invalidate it. The belief that all marijuana users are stupid stoners is stereotypical and insulting. Eight Nobel Prize winners attribute the...
