The Psychedelic Sacrament: Manna, Meditation, and Mystical Experience

by Dan Merkur Author

Did you know that secret Judeo Christian teachings incorporate psychedelics to aid transcendent mystical experiences? Read about the communities and teachers that practiced this sort of sacrament, the meditations they used, and where they got their drugs: primarily from the psychoactive fungus ergot which grows in rye and has a similar effect to LSD. Was this the miraculous manna bread that God provided in the wilderness? Historians think it's likely. Whether or not you're personally seeking divine union through acid trips, this is a fascinating look at a hidden piece of religious history.
