A Mushroom Experience
A Sure Fire way to See God
Our sacrament today is mushrooms. We all like mushrooms, don't
we?
Schedule a day and evening when you have nothing to do and can
be by
yourself in a safe, comfortable place. The day need have no special
meaning,
but if it makes you feel good to pick a certain anniversary or
holiday, so
much the better.
Sunset on the day you choose will be the Zero hour.
At zero hour minus one week, remove all toxins from your diet
- meats,
alchohol, refined sugars, even our friendly green ally. Maintaining
a strict
vegan diet consisting mainly of rice, beans, cereals, grains,
fruits, and
vegetables is recommended. Drink plenty of water. Meditate 30
to 60 minutes
a day on the purpose of your journey to meet (fill in the deity
or entity of
choice). Prepare a question, or questions, or a prayer, or a piece
of
information to pass on. Preparation, reason, and readiness are
the keys
here.
At zero hour minus 24 hours, begin your fast. The fast starts
at sundown,
and continues until sunrise the morning after the zero hour.
At zero hour minus 6-8 hours (midday), have an enema. Refrain
from any
physical activity on this day. Refrain from any overwhelming mental
stimulus
on this day, like television, music, etc. Writing, practicing
an art, or
playing music is recommended. A combination of cleansing of your
physical
space (house, room, campground, etc), meditation, yoga, and quiet
napping is
also suggested. At zero minus two hours, refrain from drinking
any liquids.
As the zero hour approaches, your Will will be waning. You may
not think you
have the strength to take the journey. You will want to eat. You
will feel
tired, burdened, physically weak. This is the time of departure.
At zero hour minus 40 minutes, consume 2-5 grams syrian rue extract
with a
small glass of water. As the rue enters your system, ask it to
carry you
safely across the void. It is the job of the rue to ready the
body for the
poison, and make sure it is properly tuned for the voyage. Meditate
on it's
function for at least 10 or 15 minutes before the zero hour.
Zero hour - Bless your sacrament. Tell it all your hopes and fears.
Ask that
you enter into a bond of mutual respect. Tell it that you are
ready to yeild
to its power, and that no tricks are necessary. Consume your sacrament
- 3
to 5 grams dried cubensis or cyanecens.
Wait. It is difficult to wait. Try lying down with arms folded,
breathing
deeply. Do not seek distraction. Just wait. You've been waiting
all week,
just a few few minutes more.
Zero hour plus 40 - extreme doubt, fear, and agitation set in.
Do not fight
them. Say goodbye to yourself, your reality, all the things you
know, all
the things you love, all your addictions, all your obsessions,
all your
fears. Just say goodbye. You are leaving them now. It is okay
to cry. It is
best to cry. If you hold back tears, yawning will force you to
tear. Might
as well let it flow. It is a cleansing.
Just say goodbye.
When you push through the pain and reach a state of inner peace,
THEY will
visit you. When you hear them beginning to whisper in your ear,
calmly
introduce yourself and tell them why you came. They will know
this already,
but it is just a formality. They will ask you to enter the darkness,
lie
down and close your eyes (pillows and blankets are good here).
Do what they
say and they will produce miracles for you. Once you pass through
their
little world, they will release you into the void.
Leave your body with an exhale. Travel through time, merge with
the ether,
contact beings and gods and long-lost friends, return to your
true home.
This is your home. This is where you came from, this is where
you will
return. Have tea with god, make lightning bolts with your mind,
sing
creation into existence. It is all possible, it is all real, it
is all
wonderful. You are pure light, pure energy, pure bliss...
Please, don't forget to thank your hosts.
With an inhale you return to your body. You are back. You are
alone. You are
weak. You are thrust back into your life. All your problems are
still there.
All your questions remain unanswered. only a few hours have passed,
but it
seemed like an eternity. How long were you dead? Were you really
dead? Was
it just a drug? What just happened?
You want to seek refuge in the comfort of others, but you must
wear this
night out alone. If you are lucky, a voice will visit you and
sing you to
sleep. This voice will sing strength back into your body. It will
infuse you
with sorrow and hope. It will tell you little jokes about yourself.
It will
share childhood memories with you.
Fall into an exhausted sleep with tears of sorrow and joy. You
will wake
early, refreshed, invigorated - surprisingly strong.
You will feel reborn.
Milk it.
