In my talks with him I had to thoroughly think about what I was saying as he had little time for bad ideas. Bottom line, a good man, making me want to go study with him. Since this is all somewhat speculative another thread to explore is that the story has Moses leaving Egypt. Several years ago I met an interesting researcher who was exploring the use of the Blue Lotus in that culture. Blue Lotus imagery occurs all through Egyptian art and architecture, yet seemingly very little is known of its use or its psychoactive properties. Egyptian art is definitely indicative of a psychedelic sensitivity. If Moses was a prince of Egypt he certainly was familiar with that aspect of its culture. The problem is of course is that one needs to have had psychedelic experiences to even know what one is referring to when one speaks of psychedelic/entheogenic art, architecture or sensitivity. No matter how many times one has read Egyptian studies or the old testament one will be missing vital clues to what was happening if one remains ignorant of this other world.Graccushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12218704783215440378noreply@blogger.com
