"A powerful spiritual being, called "Ahriman" (or "Satan"), will incarnate in a human body. The terms "soul" and "spirit" have clear meanings. Earthly/cosmic evolution is an outcome of the deeds of the Gods. The central event of earth-evolution was the Incarnation of Christ. Spiritual powers of opposition are active: Lucifer, Ahriman, Sorat. Ahriman is the inspirer of materialistic science and commercialism, and permeates modern culture with deadening forces. Ordinary scientific thinking is only semi-conscious; we c..."

" If you can't remember the headline of this article or are already struggling to recall some of the words at the beginning of the story, try hard to recall how much pot you smoked in your youth. A new study finds those who've used a lot of marijuana have worse memories and don't think as quickly. ..."

"Edward Alexander (Aleister) Crowley [rhymes with "holy"] was born October 12, 1875 in Leamington Spa, England. His parents were members of the Plymouth Brethren, a strict fundamentalist Christian sect. As a result, Aleister grew up with a thorough biblical education and an equally thorough disdain of Christianity. He attended Trinity College at Cambridge University, leaving just before completing his degree. Shortly thereafter he was introduced to George Cecil Jones, who was a member of the Hermetic Order of the..."

"Brandon teens are getting high on a potent hallucinogen for sale in local stores, and there’s nothing police can do about it. Salvia divinorum is legal in Canada, but it’s so potent B.O.B Headquarters owner Robert Ritchot said he won’t sell it to people under age 18, and not to adults without stern warnings. “It can have a disabling ability, temporarily,” said Ritchot, who started selling salvia at his Brandon stores two years ago due to demand. But he wants to educate people who want to try it. ..."

"Alone and relaxed in my house, I tried a Salvia divinorum extract. I did a lot of research prior to that and knew I should have a sitter with me if I wanted to try a really deep experience, but because I was going to try just a tiny bit and because in my previous years I had a lot of experience with LSD, I foolishly thought I was prepared enough and would be OK alone...."

"Since the publication of Roger Penrose's two books The Emperor's New Mind (1989), and Shadows of the Mind (1994), there has been a tremendous resurgence of interest in exploring possible connections between quantum mechanical phenomena and consciousness. But there have been those who have been exploring the connection for many decades. In this essay, I will first briefly run through Penrose's main ideas, especially as they have been developed in collaboration with Stuart Hameroff. I will then discuss some of the re..."

"Psychedelic Moss I don't want to get into too much detail, but after much research and experimentation, I've decided to regularly medidate (1 hour+ each day) using Osho's tremendously helpful techniques and guidance. I was simply wondering, how will smoking marijuana affect my new level of awareness? Is is good? bad? is it ultimately up to me to decide that? I have my own theories of course, but I'd like to get a second opinion from a more experienced guru. Any help will be gratefully accepted. :D -------------..."
