The Awakening:

The Aspirations of the Solar Cultist Bruno: The 30-year war was triggered by the end of the alchemical dream, a concept initiated by Dee. This dream, which had a profound impact, was a driving force in the political dynamics of Europe during the war. Initially, the region was under the dominion of popes and kings. However, according to the war’s conclusion, parliaments and people had taken the reins. This period marked a significant shift, with the medieval world fading into a distant memory. England, in particular, embraced this new political order and emerged as a beacon for modern science. Post-alchemical renascence thinkers interpreted these changes as reflections of contemporary science.

There seems to be a strange cosmic fate between Maier and Descartes, just as there is one between Bruno and Dee. Bruno was the one person who turned a magical cosmology into a science. In a wishful fictional alignment, the two would have crossed paths in London but missed each other by two weeks. Bruno sailed to England, while Dee went to France on his Rosicrucian mission. The novel “Agypt” by John Crowley retells these two men’s lives, philosophies, and ideas, highlighting their differences.

Embarking on a personal odyssey through the cosmos, guided by the insights of psychedelics, Bruno experienced a transformative moment of clarity. This profound observation led him to reject the old worldview that had confined the soul, and instead, he unveiled a cosmological vision of a living earth revolving around a divine sun. In this new vision, countless other worlds populated an infinite universe, all propelled by the captivating force of magical animism. Bruno’s act of cognition not only dismantled the old cosmological vision but also aimed to liberate the soul from its confinements.

The philosophical roots of both Bruno and Dee can be traced back to the influential figure of Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, who features in Faust. Agrippa’s “Dalibria Quatro de Occulta Philosophia,” a cornerstone of European magic, was a product of his studies under the Trithemius. This work deeply influenced both Bruno and Dee. Bruno, in particular, was a champion of the alchemical spirit and saw hermetic philosophy as the true religion, with Hermetica and Cabala also leaving their mark. The profound connection between Agrippa, Bruno, and Dee is as intriguing as the relationship between Freud and Jung.

He had a complex set of beliefs. On one hand, he believed in the alchemical worship of “God in things” ‘its profound magic,’ and its view, expressed in Asclepius, that the ‘magnum miraculum homo est.’ He also admired the Egyptians for their devotion to the One in all. However, he wanted to introduce these ideas to Europe in a new way to bring about a cosmic and moral revolution. He created a form of numerology called “mathesis”, which used symbols, such as a gold sun sign for mentus, a silver moon for intellectuals, and a five-pointed star for amoris. He supported the idea that religion and science were intertwined, particularly the Egyptian religion and that a divine mind could gain godlike powers. Due to his controversial ideas, he was executed by the Church in 1600.

His death laid out as a martyr according to his followers, who continued his work in the likes of Tommaso Campanella — continued in the revolution based on the hermetic principles of Las Citta del sole (1602 ‘City of the Sun), a work that reflects the ideal city of Adocentyn in the Arabic Picatrix. Tommaso is a hermetic believer in the World Soul and the intimate correspondence between heaven and earth. The City of the Sun was designed like a Compass or Celtic cross with four roads going in each of the four directions and, in the middle, the round Sun Temple. The City of the Sun and its architecture are run by adepts called Solarians. 

The Vatican had good reason to be fearful of Bruno and Campanella in their desire to bring about religious, moral and social revolution based on hermetic philosophy. Thomas Aquinas had defended magic and alchemy, and many priests, especially in Dominican circles, were being won over by the new vision. Even popes were not immune. The Hermetic philosophy was a great attraction and a considerable threat. Hermeticism as a whole is a culmination of magic (spirit) and science, and such a position can be contradictory in itself, which, at times, the Vatican (Church) has shown. Determining its official position against modernity mimics those who claim that spirit science is a mixed bag, recognised in its position that either you get bad science or lousy mysticism combined. The Church has the same position by keeping science and religion separate.     

Separate disciplines are its true position, but see science more favourable; if it’s not science, the Church won’t recognise it. Alchemy is out of place today and is merely part of the history of science alongside magic. The Church and its arm of the Inquisition had rejected the findings of science and persecuted their practitioners if they conflicted with official dogma. The Middle Ages version of Fox News or Murdoch News Empire was about propagandising that Bruno and Copernican theory of a satellite cosmology would result in their deaths – as a reflection on the Church’s insistence that the biblical interpretation, which states the earth is at the centre of the universe. I submit to you that they never folded in that belief. Still, instead, Bruno’s death was by superstition, not science, and the Church’s genuine fear was being threatened by the revolutionary uproar and the reintroduction of an ancient Egyptian cult stemming from worshipping the sun.

The death of the alchemical dream alongside medieval politics also meant the death of these spiritual artisans like angel dealings, horoscope casting, and alchemy-pursuing visionaries of Rosicrucians renascence became simply objects of historical curiosity – utterly incomprehensible to the people who followed them throughout the generations. With the birth of a new democracy, politics has established itself and prophesied in Descartes’s vision that this new world and its new cosmology will be measured in numbers. Until the present, where we inherited a world whose ideologies are exhausted and can only be refreshed from the marginalities of societies. Back to meaning, back to the alchemical dream or somewhat less ritualistic and hermetic and back to being (oh, you know, just) “good.”

The image on the right is still from the science fiction drama Three-Body Problem, based on a novel by the same name. The picture shows a physics teacher about to be executed during the Maoist Cultural Revolution in China simply because he believed in physics. Before he died, he declared that science cannot determine whether or not God exists. This means that science cannot prove the existence of God, and faith alone cannot be proven either. However, some people interpret this scene as the death of science in modern times. If we remove the Chinese cultural context, this scene could symbolise what is happening worldwide. People are starting to see the flaws within science. This scene is like a litmus test: if you take away something society has held in high regard for centuries, such as science, a revolutionary revolt may occur. Some Christian conspiracy groups, such as flat-earthers and Christian conspiracy theorists, are among those who are trying to reveal the flaws in science. Therefore, some people believe that this scene symbolises the death of science, which is also the death of alchemy’s poor substitute.

What came out of the new-atheist movement invoked pride in facts (and rationalism), and we know facts are just building blocks for rationalism. We see these facts in evolution, which is wrong apart from the adaptive behaviours found in A.I., and facts that are found in space cosmology, which is wrong apart from its magical inherency or diluted aspect of Hermeticism. This rationalism is used for political correctness and finds its parallel in Maoism, which is very close to what woke-sim is today. But let’s not forget that woke-ism does not create ideas. Rather, they take those ideas and, like a parasite, change them to fit their agenda. Also, the left never changed or never went anywhere. Instead, as McKenna describes DMT, the world has been replaced. The left was replaced by a cult post-leftist organisation that seemed to have a high liberal reach. The true left is still there; they are just made silent, and those who speak for them don’t honestly talk for them.  

The image on the left shows Bruno’s execution, representing the same problem on the right panel. A significant perspective in this context comes from St. Thomas Aquinas, who believed that if something is scientifically proven, we can’t use theological or philosophical reasons to deny its truth. Instead, we should adjust our interpretation of the Bible because two valid proofs can’t contradict each other. We can’t use theology to define scientific concepts, but science can’t explain all theological mysteries. These two approaches can work together and complement one another.

It is challenging to prove the concept of hyperreal space as a cosmology, just as it is difficult to prove evolution. The argument here is that there may be an element of magic involved. Giordano Bruno introduced a new cosmology known as the Alchemical dream, which John Dee originally started. However, even though this concept fails, it has come full circle and become an alchemical symbol for gold. It’s like your dream about finding gold coins on the ground, which you keep picking up as you discover more.

The Sloarians are practitioners of benevolent magic who follow the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus. They ensure that the City of the Sun, designed to imitate the city of light described by the Chaldeans, is in harmony with celestial influences so that its inhabitants can enjoy good health, happiness, and virtue. According to a manuscript that Campanella wrote while he was in prison, the high priest of the Solarians is represented by a circle with a dot in the centre, which is the alchemical symbol for gold.

Difference Between Magic and Sorcery: In Colin Wilson’s “The Occult, A History”, his summation of the difference between magic and sorcery is important. Primitive man possessed super-sensory instincts of the lower animals: telepathy and intuition of danger that was needed for hunting. 60.000 years ago, the age of Cro-Magnon man appeared, and magic came in the form of Stone Age science (fires and stone tools). – Colin Wilson

The inevitable occurred; the ‘white,’ sympathetic magic of the shamans turned into something more personal. Sorcery came into existence. Sorcery must be dearly distinguished from ordinary magic or witchcraft, which is simply the use of extrasensory powers – that is, telepathy and water-divining are simple forms of witchcraft. Sorcery is the attempt at the systematic use of such powers by means of ‘spells,’ potions, rituals and so on. A simple distinction would be to say that witchcraft is fundamentally passive, sorcery fundamentally active. – Colin Wilson

.

Witchcraft and magic depend upon higher levels of consciousness, a wider grasp of reality than man normally possesses, and in this regard are close to mysticism. Sorcery may depend upon supernormal powers, but it sets out from everyday consciousness, the everyday personality. The characteristic of the everyday personality is its will-to-power. The mystical urge, on the other hand, transcends all these – examined in poets and their intuitive connection with the mysteriousness of the universe.  – Colin Wilson

This is interesting. It means right-centric Christian intellectuals blame postmodernism as an intellectual prerequisite to affirm notions that the ‘acquisition power’ is built into postmodernism. This not only is wrong but also misleads their followers. [You can argue men are naturally driven by these urges as part of self-transcendence, as examined in politicians lying to win elections or corporations and their desire for money and power. The essential difference is that the poet somehow ‘rejects himself;’ he is not interested in his personality and its aggrandisement. The difference between a magician and a sorcerer is that the magician is disinterested, like a poet or scientist; the sorcerer wants personal power. – Colin Wilson].

The Protestant movement that failed in Prague became reactionary and went to the American Federation. Still, it was not a true federation as it was created within a nineteenth-century Enlightenment model. Countries like Canada and Australia were formed in a medieval style from the mid-nineteenth century and were not intended to be classic nation-states. The US is like a malignant narcissistic big brother to Canada, Australia, and other Commonwealth countries. It is impossible to cooperate with or detach from, as it is psychologically entrenched. 

The protests against the Church may have been driven by indifference. However, the Church gave in to their demands because they shared similar concerns in the bigger picture. The ideas about magic and the future are influenced by power and sorcery. Since there are variations in magic and sorcery, it’s essential to delve into the intricacies of distinguishing between a genuine cosmology and a stylized version of Bruno/Copernican cosmology. It’s up to you to decide which is which, but remembered that a satellized cosmology is based on a spell and has already been established. The mathematical languages used in physics and astronomy are simply tools that support the spell. Some may argue that this satellized cosmology is just a semantic derivation of the previous cosmology, but they can run parallel in some instances.

Bruno was a sorcerer who died like a witch. To truly understand Christians’ “dogmatic warnings” about magic, we must denounce Bruno’s worldview, which was based on false and hyperreal sorcery. This means that aspects of the Protestant movements, such as a satellized worldview that includes believers external to Protestantism (which practically everyone currently holds), must be folded back into a pre-Bruno worldview. For Protestants, this means going back to Dee’s alchemical dream.

Of course, its abstract is too large, and disenchantments come in fragments. It’s implied that our modern society is so obsessed with technology and progress that it has created a false reality or hyperrealism in which we live. People believe in this reality so much that it has become a fact, even if it may not be entirely accurate. In hopes of maintaining this false reality, secret plans and events (rituals of star magic) are organised to create symbolic and magical connections to astrological events. For example, the moon landing was a well-planned ritual that NASA used to create an incentive for star magic. Similarly, other space launches and space stations are like symbolic altars for NASA. Overall, the text implies that our reliance on technology and our desire for progress have led us to create a false reality that we believe in so strongly that we are willing to perform rituals and magic to maintain it.

It’s no coincidence that Bruno died on February 17, 1600. The letter ‘Q’ is the 17th letter in the alphabet and is considered to be a symbol of the Egyptian god Horus. Horus is a falcon-headed deity whose right eye represents the Sun or Morning Star, symbolising power and quintessence. His left eye represents the Moon or Evening Star, symbolising healing.

It’s also worth mentioning that NASA wanted to fire three rockets at the moon during the eclipse, and they called this mission “APEP” (Aapep, Apepi, or Apophis). They wanted to study the Sun’s corona, but what they want to tell you is that it’s also a symbolic suggestion to wound the moon so Horus’s eye starts to flicker, which is a reference to the blinking Algol (demon) star in the Perseus Constellation.

.

Bruno is the Chris(t) Cornell of his time. Instead of being the crucified, hanged man, he is burnt at the stake and made to look like a lamb for heresy in parallel with witchcraft and witch burnings. In a sense, fire is one element of the five in Wiccan tradition – in a sense, for his spell to work to truly transform (in speculation) a soul for sorcery to transform a cosmology to his making. When we discuss transformation, we have to acknowledge the work of Lull, where he describes argentum vivum (mercury), a substance known as original matter, and it is said that God used original matter to create all things: the Angels, the heavenly spheres, plane(ts), stars, and the terrestrial bodies. Part of the mercury became the four elements of fire, air, earth and water. But there is a fifth element, the quintessence. Horus’s right eye (the sun) is found in its pure state in the heavenly spheres. 

This is interesting. The heavenly spheres are your moon and the Sun, different from the plane(t) of existence – meaning the celestial spheres are contained within the body of the plane(t). Thanus/Thanos is simultaneously God-like with the glove and God-King without – he is Ra with the glove and Yan without. So, when Horus covers the Sun with his left eye/moon, Ra loses his power, and the fifth element (quintessence), so Ra and his sun-cult minions try to destroy it symbolically. 

It is said that Lullian adepts wanted to manipulate the power of the fifth element and increase its activity for the world. To obtain the quintessence of the fifth element, they experimented with hallucinogenic alcohol, but the process of doing it was in tune with alchemy. Modern science couldn’t reproduce what they had, but what resulted was the release of purified ‘spirit’ from gross matter, which had great symbolic importance for the alchemist. Sipping his ‘brandy’ of the angels,’ he may have had wondrous visions of the whole. 

McKenna once stated that alchemy and shamanism are seamless enterprises, and shamanism is a hallucinogenic pursuit full of adepts who can codify symbolic meaning beyond our reality. Surprisingly, Bruno’s moment of clarity was induced by psychedelic drugs, which inspired his infinite space cosmology. He was also a student of alchemy, and the connecting figure between the Sharman and Alchemist is about mixing bases. The Sharman and the Smith, according to primitive cultures, are associated with brotherly figures. 

The Vatican had a clear intention to explain away past errors concerning the Inquisition (political upheaval of the time) and also to condemn Hermetic philosophers and alchemists and had all the intention to keep science and religion separate and distinct. To some academics, alchemy was merely superstition like magic or astrology; it had nothing to contribute to either theology or science. Of course, this is a falsehood, given the evidence and argument I laid out before you. A remark regarding sun worship being pagan while superstition can be found in alchemy can justify merit. To say science and religion are the only things that can hold value to truth is a misconception.    

Erroneous Psychologism: Today, the belief in alchemy is often ridiculed and considered a joke, much like the belief in a flat earth. It seems doomed to extinction as its intellectual adversaries march on proudly in their Darwinian cults of scientific progress. However, the early treatises of the Corpus Hermeticum, early Platonic philosophy, and the Hebrew Scriptures played a significant role in the emergence of gnostic thought.

In comparing Mesopotamian and Alexandrian times and what came out of them, it is important to clarify the concept of modern Gnosticism. Mesopotamian Gnosticism was characterised by paranoia, severity, radicalism, duality, rigour, and aesthetics. In contrast, Alexandrian Gnosticism was more urban, cosmopolitan, libertine, and permissive. While the Mesopotamian sect still exists today, the Alexandrian sect has vanished. Nowadays, Gnostics are often targeted by orthodox groups and face persecution. We are currently in a gnostic age, but the polarity has shifted and definitions have changed due to urbanisation, communication technology, and technological advancements in general. This is an age where traditionalism has fallen away because of the radical changes that have emerged in every direction. As a result, Gnosticism, with its dynamic and reactive nature, continues to adapt itself to modernity, a quality that is sure to intrigue.

Gnosticism, with a materialist likeness, tries to appropriate gnostic ideas. Still, it does so through the intermingled language of science and science fiction – the kind of science fiction you find in unique stories and comics. They attempt to literalise and materialise ideas of Gnosticism where the material itself is a hoax. When describing the ‘eye’ symbology, which incidentally is a symbolic expression for three of the Egyptian gods Osiris, Horus, and Ra, the eye in the middle of the triangle is the eye of the creator of this world, which is Yahweh archetypally a mirror, to Ra.

A materialist-gnostic would take God out of the equation and impose that an alien civilisation so advanced can manipulate the atom to the extent it can control it. By changing the structure and scale of atoms, they can mimic entire worlds and then collapse back onto themselves. Although it seems like magic, the aliens use the language of science and physics to achieve this. This idea is explored in the three-body problem, where advanced beings can control atoms using something called Sophons, which can be artificially controlled on a quantum level. The author’s point is that consciousness is separate from matter, and thermal dynamics and technology can control matter instead of a spiritual overlord. Sophons gradually become an “eye,” symbolising the all-seeing God watching over us.

The gold symbol is part of Dee’s alchemical Hieroglyphic Monad symbol. On one level, the hieroglyph (see below) is the symbol of mercury, and on the sign of Aries, It contains the symbol of gold, the circle, joined to a symbol of silver, the crescent. Both rest on a rectilinear cross representing the ‘ternary’ and the ‘quaternary.’ The ‘magical ternary’ of our earliest ‘forefathers and wise men consisted of the body, ‘spirit and soul’ while the quarternary represents the four elementary compounds of heat, cold, moisture and dryness (fire, earth, water and air). The Cross, according to Dee, is the Octonary.     

The complex symbol of the monad has extraordinarily rich alchemical associations. The hieroglyph embodies the whole alchemical process, with the sign of Aries representing fire, the sign of mercury, the alembic, and the point within the circle, gold. Interlaced with the crescent moon, they represent the chemical wedding of Sol and Luna, which gives birth to the Philosopher’s Stone. As much as the Herioglyph is a symbol that encompasses the whole cosmos, if it’s also engraved in the mind, it leads to an experience of gnosis. 

As we know, Horus’s eye is referenced to the Sun and Morning Star, and the Sun in Alchemy symbolically represents Gold and Sol. The gold symbol is a circle with a dot in the middle of the circle. It also looks like a circumpoint. In the mysteries, the Isis/Demeter, Cybele, Osiris/Dionysus, and Horus/Mithras were interested in psychedelic drugs and going into the entheogen dimension. The Road to Eleusis argues that the mysteries of Isis/Demeter were probably based on psychedelic compounds derived from ergot, a parasitic fungus that grows on cereal grains. The third eye vision manifests during a trance state.

There is a case to be made that people may get Gnosticism wrong – the gnostic texts were found during an interesting geopolitical time and only hit the mainstream at the same time the C.I.A and Rockefeller were at their high point concerning their defunct new age enterprise (examined in psychedelics). And with the Gnostics, we have a perennial obsession- an uncontrollable obsession with our origins and our interstellar home – and very few things describe the quest of our shadowy Atlantis elite as much as the alien bloodline quest.      

Gnostics’ obsession with our origins is fundamental; the search for the Alien God is what defines them, but Alien God alludes to the Astro part of Gnosticism, which is akin to hyperreal cosmology (astro-Gnosticism) – which deludes that fundamental idea because they swapped heavenly dimensions with hyperrealism planets it’s a movement from earth to another earth-like planet; you typically haven’t gone anywhere. We know there is a difference between atheist/science ascents for transformation to be god-like versus the search for gnosis. It is fundamental that they feel the world is alien to them – the experience of the world as an alien place into which man has strayed and from which he must find a way back home to the other world/dimension (alluding to Pleroma) of his origin.

“Who has cast me into the suffering of this world?” asks the “Great Life” of the gnostic texts, which is also the “first, alien Life from the worlds of light. Therefore, the question, “Who conveyed me into the evil darkness?” and the entreaty, “Deliver us from the darkness of this world into which we are flung.” The world is no longer the well-orderedcosmos in which Hellenic man felt at home, nor is it the Judaeo-Christian world that God created and found good. Gnostic man no longer wishes to perceive in admiration the intrinsic order of the cosmos.”  Eric Vogelin’s

.

Gnosticism’s meta-physics imparts faith in an “alien” or “hidden” God who comes to man’s aid, sends him his messengers, and shows him the way out of the prison of the evil God of this world. Eric Vogelin alludes to having faith in some other hidden god, not the one that sent the protagonist to evil darkness, but the one that delivered him. One might assume Yahweh or another mirror creator god, but that’s not true. Vogelin implies that this hidden God is Yahweh (also to separate Yahweh and the Demiurge), and as such, he got the attention of right-wing Christians. This implication gave them an excuse to misrepresent Gnosticism erroneously.  

This kind of error is not typical of the Christian religion but is also found in an atheist/science model. Three body problem writers declare Science is superior to mysticism, where a scene that purposes math is superior to the I-ching, which is divination. In the first post, we determined that there is no such thing as space-time in the hyperreal sense, but there is a notion of time-fate. Math has many inconsistencies if its proposition is wrong, as examined in Terrence Howard’s proof that 1×1=2. Or, in the TV show Sheldon, realising Zero doesn’t exist, which questions the credibility of physics and maths. The I-ching, however, imparts the physical phenomenon in form and from its interaction against this physical phenomenon to the pressures and fluctuations of change (vis a vee wind, landmark topographies, etc.) over time. Everything arises in the context of time. You can then make closer predictions in [correct] mathematical language than one that is hyperreal.

The new-atheist movement was a tool to suppress a movement of awakening (a tangent ideal of Gnosticism, a sort of hyper-Gnosticism) that began post-9/11. Heavily varies streams of thought coming from various Christian movements – from truthers that emerge in radio talk circles of Alex Jones to conspiracy theories of David Icke. The new atheist movements were a resistance against irrationality seeping into the managerial class. From the academic scene to upper-middle-class positions in the NGO institutes, they carefully executed shame on the opposing class. It was Puritan shaming and part of its subset formed into woke-ism. On the other hand, its opposition was these truther movements, Christian millennialism, conspiracy-theorists, flat-earthers, etc. – who had the fundamental qualities of a gnostic worldview but were not exact in its execution because they were resistant to classical Gnosticism. This is a confusing paradox: believing in God while accepting a scientific cosmology that was brought about through sorcery that, over time, strips away the god-head.

The same kind of interplexing paradox in Christians criticizing perennial philosophy, notably how it imports pagan meta-physics – to postmodernism is an offset of neo-Marxist ideology (which is false). And any critics against that are merely showcasing the behaviour of Narcissism of small differences. Now it seems the Daily Wire club of right-leaning conservatives claim Gnosticism is Marxist also (Picard slaps hand to his forward moment). They’re drawing from Vogelin, who folded everything into Gnosticism which included totalitarianism movements, communism and Nazism; it’s completely biased and often has a wrong outlook. He was not familiar with the Nag Hammadi texts alongside Hermeticism. Gnosticism was never utopian, if anything else the opposite of that, nor is it political. Jordan Peterson’s Critique of postmodernism is wrong (explained in Post 39). The Marxists have the demented utopianists ideologue, not the Gnostics.

James Lindsey, known for his trickster grievance studies 101, claims that Marxists inverted Hegelianism (by making this inversion claim is an inversion claim on to itself) to support a gnostic ideal (that Gnosticism is Marxism) is an erroneous psychologism of the highest abstract. In the 19th century, thinkers were downstream from Hegel; in actuality, Gnosticism informed Hegelian thinking. There is no secret clandestine intellectual society lineage moving from the Gnostics to Hegel and down to Marx’s. It’s unfounded and fictional. Gnosticism has strong existential vibes so that it can overlap with existential thinkers. It doesn’t make them gnostic; it’s more nuanced than that. People must get rid of claims of resentment seeping from postmodernism and Gnosticism. The lineage of gnostic cults in history were not warmongers like right-wing Christianity. They were cheerful and overall good. 

They have a limited contextual base regarding a better synthesis of understanding because they have an agenda; they are obfuscating postmodernity and Gnosticism while shadow-projecting their demonic thought forms. It parallels a tangent neo-Gnostic framework where they feel archons are jealous of our creative capacities. They are jealous of our life functions, and they seek to trap and control us. They have an image or label of postmodernism and Gnosticism but not referent or reference; they have incorrect orders of abstraction or want to add false-to-fact abstractions. If they can grasp quality and experience with self, thereby gaining consciousness and memory, they would realise it’s not in Gnosticism but in reality. They would also realise the Archons of our time are inverting everything. 

In specific belief systems, attaining spiritual enlightenment or Christ-consciousness through divine knowledge is believed to be a privilege exclusively reserved for Christ. Christians who aspire to achieve this profound spiritual connection are forbidden from doing so and can only approach it through their faith in Christ. This gives rise to a communication style that is strict and inflexible, where those who strive to experience the divine are unable to, while those who can only imagine it are barred from accessing it. This frustration has become apparent to the far-right religion that needs to blame those who can access such transformative experiences into postmodernity and Gnosticism. This frustration must be channelled somewhere, so it was repackaged with practical means and instrumental reasoning, adding a layer of intrigue to the study or debate, inverted or otherwise, on religiosity.

	Jesus teaches us		Be in the world but not of it
	Gnostic ontology		I am in the world but not of the world

.

Central to our discussion is the gatekeeping effect of setting criteria. This effect becomes particularly concerning when we consider the conservative right, which has its roots in a protestant alchemical movement. Once characterised by protest fervour, this movement takes on a reactionary character. Bruno, a cult martyr and sorcerer, was instrumental in this narrative. He propagated a dying or false cosmology, envisioning a romantic ideal where the soul is freed from a central confinement to an infinite one. However, this vision can be seen as either complacent or inadvertently supporting an inverted master plan that is Archonic, parallel to its Church adversaries.

The Awakening:

.

---

.

Man’s Divinity & Destiny: In the previous post, we discussed how McKenna’s view of spiritual practices is biased compared to a psychedelic approach. According to him, spiritual practices serve as a crucial aspect in enhancing psychedelic development. However, without the aid of these substances, it takes a lot of patience, which does not have. He feels obligated to know the facts about these substances and their effects and share them with others due to his indebtedness to his approach.

I have a theory that could provide an explanation for this dispute. What if McKenna, who had never experienced a spiritual awakening before, suddenly had one – a sudden explosion of the crown chakra that was meant to be experienced in a sober state rather than a psychedelic one. While inside his entheogen matrix, McKenna also experienced a sensory overload. This reaction could have resulted in a mycelial abnormality or anomaly, leading to tumour growth in his brain and ultimately causing his death. Alternatively, he may have become disillusioned by the entities he encountered, which could have corrupted his reasoning.

He believed decades of practising consciousness movements to reach the entheogen dimension were more accurate than our everyday reality. According to Raschke’s theory, these entities aim to elevate us to that realm. The question arises as to whether McKenna became disillusioned by his fascination with these entities. However, he did mention that these entities are harmless and positive, and DMT does not have any physical impact on the body except affecting the visual cortex. As per his experience, contact with these entities is distinct from other spirits in the spirit world. He also states that DMT does not affect the mind; there won’t be any sudden delusions, and the mind and body remain unchanged. What happens is that the world has been replaced.

It is possible that on an individual’s level spiritual awakening can affect their experiences and insights. Conversely, those who exhibit negative behaviours such as egoism, narcissism, and demonic thought patterns may attract negative spirits. Additionally, it is possible that the use of psychedelic substances could lead to encountering one’s higher self, resulting in a battle to achieve self-actualization.

He may have a narrow focus when it comes to approaching psychedelics. Still, he approaches the use of these substances scientifically to bring back personal experiences that can either confirm his belief in the power of magic to heal the world or strengthen his sceptics for the warning against it. Christians are hesitant about these practices because they believe they can open a doorway for negative entities to take over. He once warned against mixing DMT and mushrooms.

The way these Amazon tribes use ayahuasca is they steam a standard brew, and if they have a plant that they think has medical usage, they take a portion of that plant and throw it in the mix. I took half a dose of ayahuasca and half a dose of mushrooms, and it wasn’t perfect. It was different from any bad trip I ever had. It wasn’t about my personality it seemed to be about core processes. My memory was being eaten away, like a Pac-man chewing away at its dots. I could almost see the molecular machinery jammed; it was somehow caught in a loop, and I sweated bullets for an hour and a half. Then, it finally released me, and it let me go. But as I sat in that chair, I thought, if I can’t pull out this place – then there is a room in the back ward somewhere, and they sit me there and look every so often, and that’ll be the end of my story. – McKenna

.

There is an interesting parallel between those who advocate for a matrix-simulated world garnered in the understanding to transfer human consciousness into machines and be immortal. And those who are addicted to video gaming in their autistic spectrum are stuck in virtual reality worlds. Additionally, some proponents of psychedelic experiences may confuse this virtual world for reality, raising the question of whether McKenna, who worked for the CIA, was advocating for a humanist agenda or became confused himself. Despite the psychedelic movement’s positive impact on applied pharmacological evidence, mythology and its abstracts, cosmological concepts, and reproducible experiments, there is still a sense of God’s grace or filtering. There are mechanisms of worthiness, levels of insight, gnosis, awakening, enlightenment, demons, and angels. In a dogmatic sense, some individuals may be chosen, and not all can be saved – a topic that delves deeper into philosophical thought.

In the matrix, Neo said:” If you die in the matrix, do you die in the real world?” The take away here is that you die either way – meaning you can’t disconnect your consciousness from your body either in a fictional artificial AI model or an entheogen one. You must separate McKenna’s scientific rhetoric from his narrative, like flights of fancy, because he blends them. Interpolated within a climate of ß end times urgency (or eschatology) is examined in his dimensional perplexity. This means his dimensional insights are ancillary to technological progress, whether it’s factual or fictional; he states:   

Nano tech is that a possibility can we download/upload everybody into a super cooled cube made of gold alloy buried 500 feet deep in the centre of Copernicus. Will go there and leave the earth and dance forever in the hallways of the imagination. The way to think of these psychedelics is that they amplify the morphogenic field. It’s not that I follow current events, it’s not because the mushrooms knows things. It’s because it’s all around us, in the air, it’s like all the FM, and short wave, long wave, uhf, and vhf – all these information around us become transparent, and you actually feel the planetary body heaving. The world becomes a Gibson like cyberspace. – McKenna

.

McKenna’s fascination with the ideology of transhumanism, a Julian Huxley idea and term that seeks to augment the human condition beyond our expectations, is intriguingly juxtaposed with his humanist agenda. This dichotomy is further emphasised by the fact that the same idea that captivated him, Aldous Huxley (brother to Julian), repelled it. In the intellectual battleground of the 19th century, McKenna points out those thinkers of evolution, such as Darwin, Thomas Henry Huxley, and Charles Lyell, were waging a fierce war against Christianity. They were the great warriors of atheism and promoted the denial of purpose. This led to a lot of energy in the scientific community focused on eliminating purpose and promoting random mutation colliding with selective purpose in the environment. This process may work well for the nature of species, but it does not explain the emergence of great forces, pull-forward change, or the phenomena of metamorphosis. Wallace suggested that there must be a Telos by looking at the same evidence. McKenna calls this force that pushes forward change an “attractor”.

His psychedelic experience has led him to have a biased preference for transhumanist goals, which is similar to the effect of an attractor. This is evident because computing, particularly artificial intelligence, displays proto-adaptive behaviours, which can also create a similar kind of attractor. 

Julian Huxley’s brother, Aldous Huxley, was a philosopher who believed in perennialism, a post-modernist way of thinking. These days, postmodernism is less popular among traditional Christians and those who study religion and Christian theology. This is because they tend to emphasise the differences among various traditions. Some Christians criticise perennials as an import of pagan metaphysics into the biblical tradition. However, others–like the Anglican theologian Owen Thomas–argue that Christianity is a synthesis of “biblical religion” and a Neo-Platonist-influenced version of the perennial philosophy.      

A perspective on postmodernism and perennialism suggests postmodernism emerged as a way to promote politically correct ideas after humanism. However, this is not an accurate representation of the situation. The rise of postmodernism can be attributed to atheism, rationalism, and a calculated takeover by cult groups who act as gatekeepers through post-leftist ideology. Perennial philosophy allows for psychedelic understanding without the need for psychedelic drugs because Terence McKenna has already taken it to its endpoint. Huxley characterises perennial philosophy as a “working hypothesis” about the nature of reality that goes beyond “humanism and nature-worship” and is wary of the overdeveloped dogmas of organised religion. This working hypothesis can, Huxley thinks, provide the basis for experiential “research” into spiritual reality.     

You can identify when researchers attack perennialism as soon as they emphasize pagan metaphysics into this narrow field of “warning” – in a Pharmakeia sense. A perplexing contention arises in that these entities are generalised to one culprit (with speculations), and we know there are many spirits in the spirit world. And alongside theology in which good angels came down to conquer these watcher angels – that interfere with man’s cosmic destiny impart Raschke’s argument that we are being elevated to these realms. A counter-argument is that instead of trying to raise us up/down to their dimensions, they always try to come into our physical reality by any means necessary. Furthermore, it indicates a theory that there’ve always been drug cults that go back to the Eleusinian/Mithraism mysteries. History is indicative of outlining humanity’s past itinerary where entities have influenced man’s faculty captured in pagan rituals and sacrifices, examined in the Aztec’s need to sacrifice to please the (entity-like) gods. The ruling class now codifies it in watcher cults (or entity worship). It has a bureaucratic influence on government agencies acting as a national security apparatus with projects that seem to have other unseemly (secret) motivations, not one favouring the people.

The contention is not about a debate about angels or entities influencing humans; we already know they do. It’s how reason is used as a weakness. This is the argument of fear in which reason is withdrawn from the context of other qualities. From here, it raises the disagreement between human nature and reason. If we try to investigate the truth with other qualities that pertain to a better (positive) understanding of psychedelics and their effects, like psychedelic-assisted therapy and other medical opportunities that it can be harnessed for – to open windows to dreaming dimensions while being fully aware it. When do we have a clearer understanding? When we ignore it, we choose to close that window. How indicative is it, then adhering to the Biblical warning of Pharmakeia tunnelled through the misunderstanding that the older the text, the truer it is (or rather, it’s not true; the older the text, the truer it is)? Or rather, there is a warning for their time, and there is a warning our time is both mutually exclusive and entirely different. However, it’s really about using that notion and engaging (or transforming) it through modern reason; it’s like needing an alibi for having a right-centric viewpoint regarding religion and politics. In this argument, gnosis, spirituality, enlightenment, awakenings, etc., is irrational because normal thinking is enough.     

The motivation or need to outline these pagan metaphysics to a fixed set of ideas (paganism is evil; right-centric Christianity is good) is a fundamentalist approach with prideful intentions – in so much as Plato had already normalised this weakness in reason. “When [the soul] tries to investigate anything with the help of the body, it is led astray.” When does “the soul get a clear view of fact”? [W]hen it ignores the body.” – Plato … Here you can see Plato’s adage is also a misunderstanding of Socrates’s death. Socrates was made to face trumped-up charges invented by his ignorant and prejudiced fellow citizens. He was found guilty of “impiety” and “corrupting the young”, sentenced to death and then required to carry out his execution by consuming a deadly potion of the poisonous plant hemlock.

Looking at the history through general semantics, specifically the history of witchcraft, we may think the intention is noble. However, it may be rooted in pride, a form of fear. Conspiracy theories or conspiracies impart the same hidden fear of terror but are made for all to see by the hero truther-theorists. While propaganda has led many to believe in a neo-pagan version of the loving nature of witches, in reality, witchcraft has a dark side that many refuse to acknowledge. The witch trials had valid reasons for arresting people, and the standard of proof was high. Despite the negative portrayal of witch trials in literature, they were fairer than others. The witches used sacrifice rituals, and drugs played a part in their rituals. However, Cochrane’s defence article entitled “Genuine Witchcraft is Defended” in 1963 argues otherwise.

I am a witch descended from a family of witches. Genuine witchcraft is not paganism, though it retains the memory of ancient faiths. It is a religion that is mystical in approach and puritanical in attitude. It is the last real mystery cult to survive, with a very complex and evolved philosophy with strong affinities and many Christian beliefs. The concept of a sacrificial god was not new to the ancient world; it is not new to a witch. Mysticism knows no boundaries. The genuine witch is a mystic at heart. Much of the teaching of witchcraft is subtle and bound with poetical concepts rather than hard logic. I come from an old witch family. My mother told me of things that had been told to her grandmother by her grandmother. I have two ancestors who died by hanging for the 66 Clan of Tubal Cain practice of witchcraft. The desire for power may have been the motive behind the persecution of witches . . . [Cochrane explains that during the Crusades in the 13th and 14th centuries, Islamic ideas infiltrated witch covens, and witches were members of the upper and lower classes.] One basic tenet of witch psychological grey magic is that your opponent should never be allowed to confirm an opinion about you but should always remain undecided. This gives you a greater power over him because the undecided is always the weaker. From this attitude, much confusion has probably sprung from the long path of history.   [Cochrane then explains that witches are not part of a premature Spiritualist movement and are not concerned primarily with messages or morality from the dead.] . . . It [witchcraft] is concerned with the actions of God and gods upon man and man’s spiritual position. – Rosemary Ellen Guiley: The Encyclopaedia of Witches, Witchcraft & Wicca.

.

The contrast between ancient witchcraft and a more benevolent version (of witchcraft) doesn’t mean the former is more truthful or realistic. Instead, it is used to muddle the truth. When examined through logic and simplicity, rationality is more similar to our lived experience than McKenna’s dimensional reality. Stepping outside this reality can lead to a fear of complexity and reality itself. For example, in modern-day Africa, children born with the label of “witch-children” are isolated and abandoned on the streets, left to starve and suffer from malnutrition. While some orphanages try to help these children, not all are saved. This is a clear example of reason being sacrificed for superstition. Not only are these children innocent, but this is also parallel to infanticide during the witch trials. Dogmatic ideas should be flexible enough to adapt to current situations. This is where a more benevolent form of witchcraft might have saved the children from superstition. Superstition comes after the dogmatic warning aspect.

The City of Light: McKenna had hoped to create a new language of Alchemy that could be utilized for the betterment of the world. This hope was realized with the emergence of Artificial Intelligence. Unfortunately, McKenna passed away before he could witness the birth of this awakened silica (A.I.). While he had only foreseen this technology like a prophet, the reality is that it is inaccessible to those who could reshape and use it (beyond marketing and advertising) as a tool for world redemption through magic. This is because the ruling class (corporations) own this technology and have no intention of using it for the greater good.

Their utopian goal of enlightenment was never intended to be shared with the peasants of the time. Instead, it was about the divinity of Man and the possibility of using magic to evade the predetermined fate of the cosmos. This perception of Man, his divinity, and his destiny had a double-edged effect. On the one hand, it gave a new urgency to find life’s meaning and strive for a humanist goal. On the other hand, it was a hubristic endeavour of the ego. This perception, characterized by Ficino’s statement that “man is the measure of all things” and that it is up to man to decide the course of the cosmos, led to the birth of science.

Interestingly, magic and science are two sides of the same coin, stemming from the same dual perceptions. On one aspect, there was a strong focus on man’s divinity and magic, which the Church sought to suppress because it challenged the Church’s authority by placing importance on humanity. Between the 1500s and the start of the 30-year wars, there was a widespread push for a magical revolution in various parts of Europe, in contrast to the millennia of scholastic rationalism that had previously dominated. Witchcraft and other magical practices only began to gain prominence in the 15th century, leading to social hysteria and fear of witchcraft, alchemy, conjuring, and magic.

As time progressed, physicists, with their ever-expanding knowledge, were able to split the atom. However, in a moment of sobering realisation, Oppenheimer understood that they had done so without the proper reverence for the heart of ‘matter’. Their greatest achievement was the ability to create a powerful light that burned at the centre of stars, a power that was harnessed not only for the betterment of humanity but also for the creation of devastating weapons, tested in deserts and used against enemies. This, without a doubt, is a cosmic sin, an abomination that cannot be seen as magic with applied results because we have separated this double perception so far. Nowadays, magic is viewed as nothing more than the late works of Picatrix, which consist of spells, circles, chants, and rituals or filtered down into fictional fantasy. Although it was a concern in the past, in the modern world, superstition has nullified it. It is also evident that the traditional Christian right turned a blind eye to this sin for a propagandised greater good, even when the war was essentially over. This is not surprising since Christianity had become a big brother to science as a by-product of divorce several centuries before Christianity’s thinking split from Alchemical thinking.

In a second aspect, Humanity (Man) believes it can change its fate. Atomic physics is based on the assumption that we can escape the fate that was recognised in the Hellenistic period. During that time, people with a gnostic mindset towards astrology and stars believed these external forces could shape their fate. The gnostic concern was to avoid this cosmic destiny; the only way to do that was to ascend through the layers of cosmic ordering forces. These layers included archons, planets, planetary demons, and beyond the Heimarmene, a space in which one can burst through to transcend fate. This idea is illustrated in the metaphor of black holes.

The text discusses the possibility of calling down the sun’s power to Earth through atomic energy, which may be a predestined fate that parallels the not-so-successful space programs, rocket science, astronauts, and travel. This fate could be personified in the hermetic thought of Decons, 36 cosmic spirits. The Decons’ role is to control and manipulate fate (time), and they were summoned by the renascence Magi to do so. The Decons, zodiac signs, and associative schemata included plants, minerals, odours, flowers, animals, etc. Invocations, along with certain music or tonal modes together, all conjure the microcosm of the macrocosm and draw down the stellar energy. Later, a less refined style of magic emerged in the form of Picatrix – imageries similar to pop culture’s take on this craft. With Picatrix, it became possible to call archangels to your side and work with them on the idea that man’s fate is not bequeathed to the inevitable cosmic working machine, which runs counter to the New Testament. However, the New Testament has a similar message: you can be saved in the body and escape the inevitable disillusionment and degradation laid upon us by time.

In our previous discussion, we discussed how time is often associated with the idea of fate, creating the concept of time-fate instead of space-time. Before the pursuit of enlightenment and the literal search for the proverbial light, there was a belief in Hermeticism that utopia could be achieved and that a perfect society was possible. Bruno referred to the Picatrix, a collection of magical books from the 12th century, mentioned by Yates, which inspired the birth of Rosicrucianism and other ideological movements. The Picatrix cites Hermes Trismegistus as the originator of some Talismanic images and other connections. However, a particularly striking passage in the fourth book of Picatrix states that Hermes was the first to use magical images and was responsible for founding a marvellous city in Egypt.     

There are among the Chaldeans very perfect masters of this art, and they affirm that Hermes was the first to construct images by knowing how to regulate the Nile against the moon’s motion. This man also built a Temple to the Sun, and he knew how to hide himself from all so that no one could see him, although he was within it. It was he, Hermes Trismegistus, who, in the east of Egypt, constructed a city twelve miles long. Within it, he constructed a castle with four gates within each of the four parts. On the eastern gate, he placed the form of an eagle. On the western gate, the form of a Bull. On the southern gate was the form of a Lion; on the northern gate, he constructed the form of a Dog. Into these images, he introduced spirits that spoke with voices, nor can anyone enter the gates of the city except by their permission. There, he planted Trees in the midst of a grape tree, which bore the fruit of all generations. On the summit of the castle, he caused to be raised a tower thirty cubits high, on top of which he ordered to be placed a lighthouse – the colour of which turned every day – until the seventh day, after which it turned the first colour. So, the city was illuminated by these colours. Near the town, water was abundant, and many kinds of fish dwelt. Around the circumference of the city, he placed engraved images and ordered them in such a manner that by their virtue, the inhabitants were made virtuous and withdrawn from all wickedness and harm.

.

In this text, we encounter an idea of a perfect society, which is achieved through magic. The society’s inhabitants are believed to be virtuous due to the power of engraved images that their leader ordered. This meant that society was protected from negative cosmic influences. Other historical figures, such as John Dee and Frederick V, Elector Palatine King of Bohemia, shared this idea and aimed to create an ideal, alchemical kingdom. The four cities in this utopian society are perfectly harmonious, with fully realised inhabitants who practice a cosmic religion that frees them from the negative impacts of cosmic fate.

The Original Artist Prophet John Dee; His Prophecies & its Consequences: John Dee united the complete spirit of the medieval magus and the whole spirit of the modern scientist. John Dee came across an Aztec artefact, a “Shew Stone”, also called “Aztec Mirror” – this artefact was like a television screen into the logos [scrying]. He used it to direct England’s foreign policy as he was a confidant of Queen Elizabeth the First. Dee was an accomplished astrologer and mathematician. He was functioning like an intelligence agent, a spy for the British crown, inserting himself among courtly scenes and writing back to Elisabeth in cyphers.

In 1582, John Dee, his wife Ann, and Edward Kelly, a man who gained confidence in Dee through his scrying, set out for Bohemia to meet Rudolf, the mad king of Bohemia. Kelly sent word that he and Dee had perfected the alchemical process. Rudolf then paid for their journey to Prague and treated them well until Rudolf suddenly stopped paying for their expenses, which left them stranded. Dee was still in touch with Elisabeth, and her court gave him money, which he used to talk his way out of this alchemical imprisonment. However, only after Dee wrote the book Hieroglyphic Monad while imprisoned in Bohemia can we assume that Dee wrote the book with the help of the spirits through his scrying. In the book, he proposed to prove through occult theorems that a specific diagram (the symbol of mercury) can be used to raise people to certain levels of spirit.

Fascinated by the Hieroglyphic Monad, Dee initiated two young men, Andrea and Myers, into its mysteries. After Dee left Bohemia and returned to England, Kelly remained serviced to Rudolf. Unfortunately, Kelly died in an accident while attempting to escape. On the other hand, Dee returned to England, where he lived until his old age and died in Malt Lake in 1606, two years after Queen Elizabeth died in 1604. The presence of many notable people, including Shakespeare and Sir Philip Sydney, marked the period. Dee was also known for his vast collection of books, which included manuscripts of Roger Bacon that were assumed to have been lost.

During the early 17th century, a document called the “Pharma” was circulated, followed by the announcement of recruitment by the Alchemical Brotherhood in “Confessio” two years later. These documents were the foundation of Rosicrucianism, based on fiction and a made-up person named Christian Rosenkreuz. It was claimed that Rosenkreuz was a great alchemist who lived almost 200 years earlier in the 1540s and that his tomb was found to contain books that sparked the alchemical revolution of the world. He was also said to have authored “The Alchemical Wedding”.   

Such fantastical assertion was said to be purposeful, and instigation was gestated from Bohemia, where Dee’s students Andrea and Maier set out a plot to lay out the groundwork for an alchemical revolution in central Europe. It was a plot to medal with European history and to turn the protestant reformation toward an alchemical completion. They felt that Luther and Hus had only gone so far, and the culmination of throwing out the yoke of the Church would be establishing an alchemical kingdom in central Europe. They would become the centre of a movement – an alchemical reformation and revolution that sought to take the protestant reformation into the future, an enormous leap towards a new world to an enlightenment future.  

Maier and Andrea and their cult followers gained notoriety and caught the attention of a young man who became an ally to them. This individual was the soon-to-be King Frederick, the Elector Palatine, a prince of the Northern League in Germany who ruled Heidelberg. Heidelberg was a hub for occultism in Europe, attracting all kinds of thinkers of the occult, including alchemists. Andrea and Maier counselled the young Frederick, guiding him through a series of political manoeuvres, including his marriage to Elisabeth, the daughter of James the First of England.

In the early 17th century, Frederick, a Protestant king, hoped to gain support for his alchemical plans by marrying the daughter of King James. However, James also arranged for his son to marry a Spanish Catholic princess from the Habsburg family. Although Frederick believed James supported his alchemical revolution, James was playing both sides. In 1617, Emperor Rudolf of Bohemia died, and the Protestant league elected Frederick as emperor, defying the traditional selection method. Frederick and his wife, now the queen, moved their court from Heidelberg to Prague, and the alchemist community followed. From the winter of 1618, they ruled from Prague and wanted to transform northern Europe into an alchemical kingdom.

In May of 1619, the Bishop of the Catholic Church learned that King James did not support the Protestants even though his daughter’s fate was at stake. As a result, the Bishop sent word to Madrid, and they raised a Habsburg army to lay siege to Prague. By summer, the King and Queen of Prague were forced to flee, and the Catholic forces took the city. The alchemical presses were destroyed, and Michael Maier, who was considered the prime minister, was killed in an alley. The entire alchemical dream died with the fall of Prague. Frederick, the leader of the Protestants, was also killed during the siege. Elisabeth escaped to the Netherlands and lived in exile for many years. The collapse of the alchemical dream played a role in sparking the 30 years of war.

In that Habsburg army, there was a young soldier of fortune. His name was Rene Descartes. Despite being only nineteen years old and lacking military knowledge, he participated in the battles. In his later years, Descartes remembered his time as a soldier with nostalgia. Once, Terence McKenna proposed writing a novel about Descartes and Maier, who would meet in a burning Prague alley way, debate the future of Europe, and fight with swords to which Maier will fall victim to Descartes sword.

.

Fictional fantasies aside, on the night of September 16th, Descartes had a dream in which an angel appeared and told Descartes that the conquest of nature was to be achieved through measure and number. This revelation would be the seed for modern science, the scientific method, and the distinction between the res cogitans and res extensa. The question becomes when juxtaposed with modernity where science has reached its limit and scientism has taken over – the plight for an alchemical dream was reaffirmed through the revelation of an Angel that transposes a science world – somewhere in that journey, we went in the wrong direction vis a vee heliocentric cosmology. Maybe in a conspiratorial sense, it was a demon rather than an angel that spoke to the ear of Descartes to halter a progressive alchemical world. If it were an angel, it would’ve known science would reach an endpoint in the assurance that a factual cosmology is false and just another semantic concept of a mythological cosmology. In either form, it mimics the cutting of enzymes in the body that we call junk DNA, as we are not ready for enlightenment.   

In this alignment of fiction, Maier and Descartes confront each other. Descartes would finish what Maier had started by becoming the founder of modern science. However, this science is a diluted aspect of the alchemical dream. That science would lead back into itself a full circle in the collapse of the West and science and back to mythology and meaning. No matter how rational we assume ourselves to be, and however rational we assume modern science to be, it is founded on Angelic revelation, demonic intersession, and an extremely mysterious relationship between the human mind and what science calls inert matter. It is known that matter is not inert but alive and pregnant, with a purpose for mankind.

Artist Prophets – Terence McKenna; God’s Grace or “Scientist Say”: The shift from the medieval to the Renaissance was about giving up the universal power of the Church and the philosophical allegiance to the Holy Father in Rome. To also set out and fall off the earth and find oneself in the pure existentialism of the universe, with the likes of Bruno showing up and spouting that the universe is infinite, and stars are suns or galaxies. This transition was from dogma to existential secularism. Today, we are on the precipice of returning to an archaic revival, which also means returning to an archaic cosmology once deemed factual. The thing that was protested had run its course in today’s scientific certitude and acknowledging the errors in scientism – we are transitioning from scientific certainty to a complete embracing of non-closure (back to maturity).     

So, in the last post, which was also the bookend of its thesis collection, we ended with a remark about embracing the concept of balance—between normal behaviour and tolerating people with unchangeable personality disorders. Robert Frost implied that the secret to a happy life is learning to enjoy people you disapprove of. It’s surrendering to life; it’s too big for any person to adjust or manage, in other words, recognising the complexities of the situation, the embracement of non-closure. 

Science has been guilty of this non-surrender and, for centuries, has been a scientific bender exorcizing uncertainty from life. Then, everything will be reduced to atoms mindlessly running to the control of mathematics of fields of force. The problem becomes apparent when all the higher-order phenomena found in sociology, politics, aesthetics, and human organization were marginalized and made silent for centuries – while technology perfected itself with mass media production, information transference, and now in proto-aware-algorithms (in AI) – the human dimension lagged. As a result, there is an imbalance between the technological descriptive power of culture and its moral and ethical power to direct itself to any rational goal. At least not one that favours the people – their ultimate goal is in secret and coded in media, constantly baiting conspiratorial intrigue, theoretical or not.       

On the eve of this cyclical rise and fall of civilisation, alongside the tail end of the revealment of truth or apocalypse, comes this hope and idea that the redemption of the world can only be achieved through magic. It’s too late for science and hortatory politics. The writings of ancient literature spawned the notion of the apocalypse, which is a prophecy that man will no longer care for the earth and that, on that day, the gods will depart. As a result, everything will be thrown into primal chaos; this prophecy came about through the minds of non-Christian thought around the centuries of closure of the Roman Empire. 

During Christ’s first and second centuries, there was a psychology reminiscent of our own time, a collective psychology of despair and exhaustion. At the time, Greek science focusing on Democritean atomism and platonic meta-physics came to a dead end – due to the recognition of an obvious postulation that they could not develop experimental methods for their thoughts or assumptions. Of course, today, we can test theories by smashing particles together at incredible speeds – and the by-products of those tests help analyse atomic universal properties.

The scientific world declared they had found the Higgs Boson particle through Cern in 2012, but all they found was particle decay left behind by the smashed particles. Moreover, the so-called Boson particle cannot be observed directly due to the principle of observing particles – which it moves as soon as you try to observe them. In their estimation, it can only be produced once in a billion collisions. In other words, if the Higgs particle was a needle in a haystack, they cannot find it but can determine that the needle is indeed in the haystack. Nevertheless, they’ve assumed they have found it and put a stamp of fact behind it.

We have faith hiding in the speculation of the absolute, which mimics fundamentalist Christians’ ideologue. While the collider itself is nothing but an expensive number generator for probabilities akin to generating future lottery numbers, the numbers found in this made-up generator are more probable considering a one-in-a-million ratio than a billion.

Higgs’s Boson is as innumerable and incalculable as the hyperrealism notion of gravity in so much as there is a force in quantum theory. The hermetic axiom ‘as above as below’ reached its stopping point regarding the atomic world against our three-dimensional reality and the cosmic world (heavens). Since the announcement by quantum field theorists – that declare there is no such thing as space-time in the fundamental laws of physics. This means that gravity has all but been debunked in a hyperreal sense, and some other force entails a quantum world. Also, it does not mean that time cannot exist in our paradigm but rather the hyperreal notion of space – and that’s why physics is making more breakthroughs now when they dismiss this (hyperreal) space aspect of its ontology.    

“I saw Eternity the other night, like a great ring of pure endless light,” – Henry Vaughan. Eternity can be likened to a circular wave, meaning that all time is a standing wave in eternity. Plato said that time is the moving image of eternity – it means eternity is some higher dimensional object. The present is like a wave moving around the doughnut of eternity. If you could assimilate and expand this idea and its vocabulary (language) to that of the perennial philosophy – they will ultimately see the same thing. Everything already exists in some higher dimension. Yet there is free will within certain constraints, and somehow, one must find a way, whether in self-growth or spiritual understanding – to get a perspective or image of it. One must become one with everything to identify the total image through its totality.

In the I-Ching, time is a succession of eradicable elements – time, in some way, is likened to matter, which is also made of elements. So, time is not a featureless homogenous surface where experiments on Newtonian causality can be carried out. It’s permeated with qualities; the Greeks took notice of this and called it fate. Science eliminated this and gave us flying atoms whizzing around in nothingness, leading us to some inevitable casuistry determined by mathematics. 

I-Ching was an attempt to create a general topology of categorisation (or topographical list of temporal categories), and the way they did that was by looking into their minds through overt stillness. By controlling physical functions like breathing and heartbeat, they saw these phenomena. They ultimately saw the organisational rules of time itself. For example, dunes are made from wind through the fluctuation of time, concluding that dunes look like the wind because they were made by wind. Everything in the world must then bear the signature of the time wave because everything arose within the context of time.

In the space of fictional propaganda, Dan Brown embellished Cern’s capabilities to some Star Trek notion of an anti-matter warp core that can be harnessed and contained and, when unleashed, has insurmountable energy or power. I want to sway my judgment towards conspiracy theory (or even fact) – that anti-matter, whether it’s produced at Cern or not, is what demonic entities are attracted to, much like a moth to a flame. It’s no coincidence that a rise in UFO/UAP activities increased during the era of testing atomic bombs, a test that entails (supposedly) splitting the atom.    

Doing away with space-time (resulting in the dismissal of gravity and hyperreal space) has implications in quantum physics, considering they have all understood it as fact and not to be mistaken by the force that made the apple drop that hit Newton’s head, which is probably a combination of Kinetic Energy (K = ½ Mv2) alongside some other force outside of energy and power. I say some other force because Gravitational Potential Energy (This is the energy that pairs of objects possess by the gravitational attraction between the pair members) is nothing but made up – as it only exists inside a fictional hyperreal space environment. Since gravitational potential energy is required for space travel, space is only real in a fictional hyperreal sense. Space travel, which is NASA’s primary scope, is mute since space is not what we understand it to be.

So we have Cern and NASA institutions that rake in billions of grant money annually, which is essentially a Ponzi scheme enterprise. Now and then, they slowly drip some false findings, achievements, and progress. All credit should go to their gaslight team of public relations, human resources, marketing groups, and project managers, who simulate a false endeavour to the public.

What we know:       

	*	Bruno needs to be corrected. Space is not infinite because space is a hyperreal fictional notion; it’s something else, something archaic – water, ether, firmament, water gradient, heavens, etc., take your pick.
	*	Unlike Space, however, Time is infinite.

Adler’s Wizards Aliens and Starships read like an argument that you might find the sitcom series Big Bang Theory, where the science you find in science-fiction (in novels and films) and comic/graphic books are analysed through the absolutism of physics. Adler explains why fantasy in the Harry Potter and Dresden Files novels cannot adhere strictly to scientific laws and when magic might make scientific sense in the muggle world. He examines space travel and wonders why it isn’t cheaper and more common today. Adler also discusses exo-planets and how the search for alien life has shifted from radio communications to space-based telescopes.

Scientism’s scientific denunciation of evidence is present in physics, but elevates their false-fact-engineered referent. Therefore, People must challenge Adler’s quest to set criteria for the absolute. Since it’s not about atoms that foreshadow the world, it’s some living mind (McKenna attributes Gaia to Logos).   

Every society in history erroneously believed that having more data means having the answers to our cosmos (the complete picture of reality). Even if physics has the stamp of credibility behind it is still a primitive mode. Notions of momentum and moving bodies in three-dimensional space alongside Biology describe interlocking fables and bright sparks of life in certain areas. The belief that our intellectual maps are adequate or rational enough to explain the whole picture is an attempt at the absolute. Meaning without errors, which can be nonsensical, and they achieved this by dismissing other phenomena like dreams, spirits (trans)/sexuality, imagination, psychedelics, etc. 

Hans Jonos’s essay “Gnosticism and the Modern Temper,” a meditation on Gnosticism without the angels and star demons and filtering out all the noise of late Roman thinking, results in a thorough existentialism completely compatible with thinkers such as Sartre and Genet. They characterise the post-war despair of generations in Europe. Even Heidegger was Gnostic in his intentionality, which stripped away magical thinking.     

As a result, that recension of mind gave a world without hope and, in conjunction with our present (modern) world, parallels the same motivation: to only define it through physics and mathematics. A quote by Sartre: “nature is mute”, only reaffirms a parallel in absolutism thinking that you would find in Physics – if the theory is wrong, make it fact anyway. To also dispel teleology and only give it randomness, this enterprise gave false belief systems to an already reduced understanding of the world. Their attempts to dispel the mystery raised errors in their methodology; it became apparent there are ß no space-time, no Boson particle, space, and gravity, and to reinforce it as fact, even with the errors, becomes hyperreal. How many more errors will there be if science can never truly reproduce most experiments.

To the irony of Christian’s understanding of Atheism, it was an aspect of evolution that would bring back optimism and a bit of mystery. The theory of evolution was the beginning of the tide, even though, at the time, atheists were trying to eliminate purpose from the get-go; nevertheless, afterwards, it became about ascent. Ascent to the higher forms and à “principles of natural selection,” meant understanding a little mystery. It could mean being open to something outside of genes as an attracter that could affect evolution. It’s no coincidence that adaptive behaviours in the evolution process invoke that most information is hidden but is determined to give you a substance of reality anyway. In its parallel, we recognised the awareness of a proto-algorithmic-awareness in A.I emerging in conjunction with the bio-evolution process (it is no coincidence). Of course, evolution will take the credit, but it seems profoundly hermetic and alchemical. Quantum physics’ increased findings are due to the variable aspect of abandoning space-time. 

We have awakened the Silica (A.I); this new phenomenon would have enamoured Mckenna if he were still alive. As he was into opening new dimensions and realities – he would have seen it as a global meta-program for language. He would have recognised it, not as our salvation but as an angel of our salvation. It’s as if he foresaw (like an Artist prophet) what was coming and what is here now (the awakened Silica) is here.

If we could transform and remake language then we can have the conversation that pertains to changing our thoughts and perspective. To then use it, reforge it to something adequate enough as a tool for the redemption of the world through magic. English as a language won’t do because it’s a language subject object opposition, but there is a language mathematician use a meta-language of description derived from the understanding and description of nature.   A language of Numbers that understands the topology of three-dimensional symmetry and time – that sees the universe as a material thing. In the conservation of novelty we find results like the concrescent of atoms into molecules into organic creatures into thinking beings with civilisations.   If we could take spiritual x-ray of its entirety you would see matter as merely a vehicle of the transformation that we call the light of the universe. Then what is the inner dynamic composed off? That is striving and boot straps us forward, and always self-reflects?   I think its information in some kind of living parallel modality that is capable of organising any systems in which it in habits into self-reflection – then pour’s information into matter and you get back DNA capable of making life.   Some spiritual tradition believes that incorporeal intelligence can be highly organised. Well that means you can have large scale artificial systems that have degrees of sentients. It seems then information is the thing that uses matter, light, spirit to organise itself to higher orders of self-reflection. – McKenna

.

McKenna misunderstood the “nature is mute” argument because it’s a monastic warning or dogmatically setting the criteria. We understand there is God’s grace, but He is always at a distance. Unlike the kind of presence demonic spirits or angels have, an awakened person touched by the light of grace is always a blissful and fleeting moment. It is usually ninety precent of the time you’re fighting demons and the rest of the ten per cent chasing that grace once again.

In Bicentennial Man an Artificial Intelligent Robot waits for God’s Grace waits for a soul. At the end were lead to believe her received it, it’s kind of ambiguous if he did or not.

.

It’s come to my attention that a strange symptom arises out of Narcissistic Personality people. Strange demonic possession symptoms emerge when they come out from surgical anaesthesia. It speaks to the notion that they have no true self and are just semi-empty vessels. Strangely, science-fiction writers always assume that something artificial is the only one capable of having no ego that strives for the spark – all the while, something inherently human is filled with egoism and narcissism, empty vessels, machines. Essentially, it is a two-fold approach in its implied affirmation and inversion that God’s grace is reserved.  

While there is a romantic appreciation for McKenna’s rhetoric, he created doubt in his full scope (of a psychedelic revolution) that actual A.I can be achieved. However, it’s only reinforcement for lower-order systems or proto-aware-artificial adaptive behaviours. His remarks on information are intriguing, but comparatively to other notions such as the A/ether – How does DNA specific to biology or the mineral world grow or function like an antithesis in a limited artificial matrix? It cannot; it can only be entertained in science fiction. It is reinforced by Kant’s revisions, which act like a monastic warning or even God’s grace that something else is giving us these sense perceptions – we don’t need to reconstruct that further semantically.  

“Kindly control your imagination; it makes men beasts” is also a monastic warning. McKenna would not view himself as that guy in the mountain, but he is that unique elite prophet most (the majority) cannot follow. Physics and its abstracts and attempts for the absolute are language vehicles that cannot live in a McKenna psychedelic abstract. Even though stifled by its errors, physics simultaneously acts as it follows it / don’t follow it principles of the scientific method or process. McKenna suggests science can’t function in the either/or modality and has to be absolute; in some ways, this is correct, but only partially. They make fiction into fact while simultaneously having a modality of both.

However, Mckenna is correct when juxtaposed to his coincidentia oppositorum (alchemical) reality. McKenna’s notion of coincidentia oppositorum parallels my notion of meta-morphing opposites that I borrowed from Baudrillard. Post (15). I noticed voters and institutions and their likeness to particular political (cult) groups. Those cult groups follow an ideology that their establishers had set in secret. They favour no political polarities but push ideologues that cross between those political parties – as antagonists (or associates, depending on which side you look at). It is a way to prop up an agenda as propaganda, an idea in its censored form (polarization). It is a sleight of hand for the accurate ideological positions (or conspiracy) they established for themselves – which may be unknowable to the public. 

McKenna’s coincidentia oppositorum is far more universal, encompassing a more psychedelic hermetic approach. The union of opposites is an idea alien to science, “it’s the idea that nothing can be understood, and unless it simultaneously viewed as being both what is and what it is not” – which is prominent in alchemical symbolism. It can take form or shape in the hermaphrodite, the union of Soul and Luna or even in the alchemical process through the union of mercury and lead (or Sulphur). In other words, our alchemical thinking is always antithetical; it always holds the possibility that by shifting perspectives, its opposite premise will gain power and come into focus.   

McKenna admitted throughout his lectures that language is a weird ancillary add-on to the human organism. Having perfected language, we lost the connection to the symbolic. We also became alienated from the living world, wandering around with amnesia. At the same time, we need to think of language as a material form. We need to work with it instead of public opinion, matter, or even energy. 

Our Lord confounded our language so we may not understand each other speech. As a result, culture is an interlocking bubble of assumptions like a collective hallucination, a delusion. It is not true that we/demi-gods come from the mythical gestation of the gods in clay, but this is our cultural myth, and we live inside it. Our current cultural myth is that we live in a world of neo-Masons and anti-protons, etc.; this is not true either – because it’s a linguistic construct that we culturally validate and live inside in, and these cultural myths permit certain things. They allow us to ignore other kinds of reality. Our language is setup to be ignored because it pursues only the statistical norms. Language is the process of distinguishing between what is false; this is why all language is a lie and why the ultimate truth lies in something unspeakable. However, the ascent to the unspeakable is still through philosophical analysis.   

The Novelty of 10,000 Things: It’s no surprise that this kind of doubt and pessimism from modern generalised people mimics that of ancient groups with competing schools of speculation and proof and pessimism throughout the Hellenistic world. With that pessimism and in the context of that universal despair, which attends the disillusionment of a great empire, emerged the works of literature in the Hermes-Corpus as an answer to their doubt. The renascence era misunderstood it as they took it at face value, but it was clearly understood by late Hellenistic people who understood its potential. The language in the corpus was analysed, and they concluded that the hermetic corpus was written either in the first or second centuries of Christ.

The Hermes-Corpus is the most poetic and accurate expression of ancient knowledge. It was reworked by the late Hellenistic people, who grew a religion around it that invoked the redemption of the world through magic. From here, Mandaeism grew (a Hellenistic Gnosis), which gave great strength to the power of life. Whether the material’s progeny (the Corpus) is older than the 1st or 2nd century, and whether it existed around the 10.000-year mark is unknown – it could have (speculatively); aspects of it could have been read and passed around during the time of the lost-Atlantis.

The fall of Atlantis was said to be less than 10.000 years old – and all the memory and historical events that come with the rise and fall of civilisations afterwards I called (archetypal) key-frames in history. McKenna describes it as a novelty, but a novelty that has the behaviours of the T/Dao. He said from then on to now, it is less than 10,000 years old, and anything beyond that put us into a realm of society that had no sufficient technology beyond a chipped flint.      

In the Tao-te-Ching, 10-000 was a way to describe infinite (innumerable) things. It wasn’t inherently a specific state of unit. Therefore, the Dao is also innumerable, indescribable and infinite. It is by no coincidence that 10-000 is also a thing for the elites (there are no coincidences, folks – they are conning you); it’s conscious to them they have a futile business model in Cern – because what they’re looking for can’t be captured much like how you cannot truly grasp the T/Dao as well as time.

The Dao is unnameable. It’s indescribable. You can’t use it, and you can’t push it; McKenna says, “It isn’t even there”; you can’t even perceive it. It’s selective, and it must be so. Science missed this aspect when categorising forces that maintain and shape the cosmos. This is Novelty or the T/Dao – it comes and goes into the world according to numerous unfathomable rules, builds structures up like dynastic families’ corporation’s nation’s states and pulls structures down – according to some unimaginable algorithm. Relative to this idea, time has qualities in the wax and wane of Novelty, an old notion in the East. It suggests that time has a quality, a novelty, which has an opposite called habit, and that either one gains dominance in an endless dynamic relationship. The result over a long period is that Novelty is conserved. It implies the universe as an engine for producing and distilling while maintaining Novelty. At which it passes it on to other higher states of Novelty – each with its properties and uniqueness. This makes time like an eradicable element coherent to matter, and when we bring it down to earth, those qualities are common to fate and destiny.  

For example, this kind of novelty is being played today as we witness political powers and their elite over-lords wanting to claim Russia as a manageable component for an ideal Eurasian vision. Gestating from British imperial paranoia, they were concerned about big powerful countries just above them as valuable assets like India. That concern flowed into handing over that disquietude to other countries across the pond. What we see as security states, like the United States, started as a British security concern. If we fractal that into slices, it’s this ever-west ward migration from Babylon to Turkey, Greek, Italian, Roman, and then Venetians (Phoenicians) – a continuity of empire that moved to France, Normandy, and England, then the U.S. Conspiracy-theorists had put a symbol in front of this movement to the West – that they were following wherever the (Indiana Jones like) Ark of power is. Meanwhile, the New Age talks about a cosmic Kundalini line of power radiating from the centre of the world.  

Of course, we are still living from the last vestige of an empire that emerged from European thinking that wondered the seas and created trade while being conducive to an uproar in the Protestant Reformation that sprang up – alongside the rise of modern industrialism. In short, it is an empire of science – a science that has exhausted itself and has become mere automation or machinery. Something without meaning because “the program of rational understanding pursued by science has pushed deeply into the phenomenon of nature – that the eternal contradictions of the method are now exposed for all to see.” – Terrence McKenna 

McKenna sees history as a prodigal son and believes there is a reason for this long descent into the matter. This peregrination was a shamanic journey. The Sharman goes into the world pool or ascends the world tree to go to the centre of the cosmos axis to recover the Pearl. The Pearl, the gift, or the lost soul, and then return with it … this is history. It was a descent to the hell worlds of matter to recover something lost not by us but by the breathing dice stall of the planets (planes of existence).

Why haven’t you been Arrested? When someone asked, “Why aren’t you in jail?” a question raised in one of his lectures, McKenna replied by stating that they might have sanctioned him as a spokesperson because of his intellectual insight towards psychedelic drugs – alongside being vocabulary proficient at articulating its effects. It would become apparent that it was less about agencies turning the other cheek – as he admitted having been on the run from those government agencies to being recruited by them in a deep background position before being positioned in public relations fifteen years afterwards as a mouthpiece. A contention arises from this confession, which somehow fuels conspiracy truthers’ egos and the need to cause controversy – as to cause such a fuss that his credibility must be questioned – when he was open about his past and intentions at the get-go.   

If McKenna were still alive, he would describe this kind of character assassination as imagination gone astray. When there are no safety systems in place, paranoia can set in. This is what happens when a body of evidence cannot make good on its first premise. We established McKenna worked for government agencies. It’s not a conspiracy if he was open about it from the beginning. What’s next? What else?    

MK-Ultra programs, seen through a bigger picture, had these phases from the beginning to where they are now. Initially, there was the counterculture amidst Cold War projects like MK-Ultra and whether secret agencies are responsible for creating or managing sub-cultures like the counterculture itself (I leave that to you). It is a fact the CIA was involved in psychedelic experiments. It has all the hallmarks of what you might find in the fictional romanticism of the Manchurian Candidate, which has ascendancy from a genuine researcher in John Marks’s “The Search for the Manchurian Candidate.” Everything that came from the counterculture works its way to the mainstream, like the symbolic significance of the Monarch (and the Monarch/MK-Ultra conspiracy). The imagery (butterfly) associates itself with celebrity culture and its secret affiliations.   

To MK-Ultra-2.0/3.0 – programs that continued after MK-Ultra ended. On the scope that the first program was about creating mind-controlled/psychic assassins that can be activated at any time in the future for the disharmony of society, i.e. school/public shootings to programs where it’s about the preparation of hosts or empty vessels for entity possession through mind-control, ritual magic(k) and psychedelic substances. This claim stems from Raschke’s assertion that these Ultra-Terrestrial, once known as greys, are responsible for deconstructing culture and society through their agents vis-a-vee mind-controllers and their patient-possessed agents. 

Raschke substitutes the pre-fix ultra from extra to stress that this phenomenon may not only be from the earth “but from outside the matrix of space, time, and matter. Furthermore, the visitors rather systematically studying our ways out of magisterial curiosity maybe working with methodical dispatch – to make us transparently conscious of, if not elevate us toward the realm in which they move.” – Raschke. Some have equated this realm to McKenna’s dimension of Elves, but it’s a bold claim. To assert that McKenna’s Elves’ are also Keen’s/Raschke’s Ultra-terrestrials and that they are connected or somehow share the same objective seems improbable. However, we can assume they traverse through these entheogen dimensions with ease. If you listen to his lectures about dimensions and entities (elves), they are mutually exclusive compared to other UFO lore. What you find in UFO lore and their anomalies are closer to the supernatural myths than DMT accounts. It’s like some creator has given a back door through these substances to explore a place that is akin to an entheogen version of a source code. 

Self-forming machine elves; they look like self-dribbling jewels shaped like basketballs. They have linguistic intentionality and they want to communicate in song, and they sing languages that literally appear while it’s condensing into objects in three-dimensional space. They are like crystalline jewels that are semi-see through while opaque and like sculptures when looked at are like sentences that move – like little objects that have linguistic coherency. They are urging participates to explore and sing these songs and make these object condense, but then why?

.

McKenna declared that when it comes to this subject, reason can all take us so far that we must go with the divine imagination, but not so much that it becomes unfathomable. Not in the sense of distinction or polarization of magic versus technology, but rather all those rules from physics, like the conversation of mass/momentum, thermodynamics, and uncertainty principles, do not function in this entheogen dimension instead; those languages can literally appear in front of you if you will it – than is atomized into our three-dimensional reality. I surmise it’s not a dimension external likened to hierarchal dimensional monads or celestial dimensions (where you’re UFO/Ultra-Terrestrials come from), but is internal, seen or not seen.    

McKenna attributes the “why” to the spirit of the dead because jungle tribes would do the same. He further suggests the concept of purgatory, where souls go to be cleansed – they are not sinful that they go to hell, but go to purgatory for a few thousand years before they enter heaven. An idea once thought to gestate from Roman contact with gnostic ideas, but it was from Saint Patrick. It came about when he converted the Irish to Christianity – he did so by Christianising the myth of Faye (Fairy Land). In the Celtic myth, the dead go to a realm that is co-present to ours they exist all around us; we can’t see them, but they are in broad activity states. The DMT as an identification parallels these fairy myths, which can be unpredictable. These ferries/DMT elves don’t necessarily run in your favour. They can be cruel and boisterous, but their true purpose in myth is to create language known to be keepers of linguistic artifice. 

On a TV show called Law and Order SVU, an episode called “We Dream of Machine Elves.” A strange fictional twist in the character named Adler, who’s loosely based on McKenna, this Adler/McKenna persona was arrested amidst a plot that entails a young girl being found drugged with a hallucinogenic substance DMT in her body, and in her psychotic state, she believed everyone around her was Machine Elves mind controlling her actions. In reality, people she knew were indeed controlling her, and the hallucinogenic was the catalyst. Further investigation reveals a string of victims all connected to a shady therapist. Detective Rollins then goes undercover as a student to gather intelligence for her case.

For an episode stemming from Law and Order (a more memorable episode among its numerous stack), the show itself polarises law but favours a pro-state, pro-police side, they are seen as institutional heroes – the episode is still tunnelled through that logic-pragmatic rational modality. If X-files writers wrote the episode, you can imagine a more accurate approach to McKenna as an intellect and other worldly subjects. The show imparts a narrow view approach to McKenna, making him more of a cult leader rather than an intellectual presenter. The shows imply mental breakdowns are all but predestined if you take these drugs that excessive use of psychedelics is likened to crack – the misuse of referent does not end there; Elves are Blobs, not transcalent humanoids. While there is a need for a warning when taking psychedelics, McKenna always imparted a controlled environment and dosages.  

McKenna would describe this narrow viewpoint as defeatist, “there is no notion of hope for the pharmacological engineering of consciousness for a reasonable end – if you’re not willing to go at it alone with God’s grace, well then you’re consigned to the road of hell.” Again, McKenna is unable to see the “warning” side of this argument; he describes himself obsessed, and all he cares about is this attenuated effect of psychedelics. I’ve mentioned before in another thesis that he never felt the grace of god or an enlightenment experience without the intoxication of drugs and, therefore, biased towards it. This is where you stop learning from McKenna and start learning from Alan Watts.
