GUIDE FOODS OF THE GODS BY TERRENCE MCKENNA

This book by Terence McKenna explores the relationship between plants, psychoactive substances, and human evolution. The book presents a wide-ranging exploration of the role that psychoactive substances, such as psilocybin mushrooms and ayahuasca, have played in human history, from prehistoric times to the present day.

McKenna argues that the use of psychoactive plants has been a fundamental part of human evolution, shaping our consciousness and our culture. He explores the history of the use of these substances in different cultures around the world, as well as their role in religious and spiritual practices.

The book also delves into the political and social implications of drug use and prohibition, arguing that the criminalization of psychoactive substances has been a disastrous and counterproductive policy. McKenna makes a case for a more enlightened and compassionate approach to drug policy, one that recognizes the positive potential of these substances when used responsibly and with respect.

This thought-provoking and informative exploration of the relationship between psychoactive substances, human consciousness, and cultural evolution is an incredible read. It challenges conventional wisdom and presents a compelling case for a more nuanced and compassionate approach to drug policies. Check it out here 


THE DOORS OF PERCEPTION BY ALDOUS HUXLEY 

In this book, Aldous Huxley recounts his experiences taking mescaline, a psychoactive substance found in certain cacti. In the book, Huxley describes the profound changes in perception and consciousness that he experienced under the influence of the drug.

Huxley’s account of his mescaline experience is framed within a broader discussion of the nature of consciousness and the limitations of our normal waking consciousness. He argues that our habitual ways of perceiving the world are limited and that psychoactive substances like mescaline can expand our consciousness and reveal new dimensions of reality.

Throughout the book, Huxley draws on insights from various spiritual traditions, such as Hinduism and Buddhism, to explore the nature of consciousness and the potential for personal transformation. He also critiques the materialistic worldview of modern Western society, arguing that it has led to a profound alienation from nature and from our own inner selves.

Take a dive into the thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of consciousness and the potential for personal transformation. The book’s influence has been far-reaching, and it is widely regarded as a classic work of psychedelic literature.

There are many more books available and preferences vary per individual, but these three are a must for those looking to explore their psychedelic journey, and understand this fascinating alternate world that is so powerful.
