“Mushrooms, Myth and Mithras: The Drug Cult that Civilized Europe” by Carl A. P. Ruck

"This illustrated book traces the history of an unlikely force in the shaping of Western civilization: the use of psychedelic mushrooms, namely by a secret society called the cult of Mithras. Nero was the first emperor to be initiated by the group’s “magical dinners,” and most of his successors embraced the ritual as a source of spiritual transcendence. The cult was officially banned after the Conversion, but aspects of their rituals were assimilated or co-opted by Christianity, and the brotherhoods persist today as secret societies such as the Freemasons. This is a fascinating exploration of a powerful force kept behind the scenes for thousands of years."...>>

“Extraordinary Beliefs: A Historical Approach to a Psychological Problem” by Peter Lamont

"Since the early nineteenth century, mesmerists, mediums and psychics have exhibited extraordinary phenomena. These have been demonstrated, reported and disputed by every modern generation. We continue to wonder why people believe in such things, while others wonder why they are dismissed so easily. Extraordinary Beliefs takes a historical approach to an ongoing psychological problem: why do people believe in extraordinary phenomena? It considers the phenomena that have been associated with mesmerism, spiritualism, psychical research and parapsychology. By drawing upon conjuring theory, frame analysis and discourse analysis, it examines how such phenomena have been made convincing in demonstration and report, and then disputed endlessly. It argues that we cannot understand extraordinary beliefs unless we properly...>>

“Beyond Pyramid Power: The Science of the Cosmos II” by G. Patrick Flanagan

"Since I wrote my two previous publications on pyramid energy in 1971 (The Pyramid and its Relationship to Biocosmic Energy and Pyramid Power) I have had over four years of additional experience with these unusual energy fields. The results of this research have never been made public. I will reveal for the first time, the results of these discoveries, and details of the construction of the Pyramid Energy Plates. Most of these discoveries were made in a six month period following my trip to the Great Pyramid of Giza in September, 1974. On that trip, I culminated years of research into unusual energies by spending the night in the King’s Chamber of the Pyramid of Cheops....>>
