“Allies For Awakening: Guidelines for Productive and Safe Experiences with Entheogens” by Ralph Metzner

Magick Matters

"Entheogenesis means the growing realization that we human beings and the world around us are much more than simply material organisms living and evolving on a material planetary body.
