An exploration into the techniques of shamanic mysticism, the author addresses how mushrooms can lead the spiritual seeker to profound states of self-awareness and radical understanding of the nature of the self, reality, and the sacred. Covers looking into the spiritual mirror to uncover an authentic sense of self, developing "witness" consciousness to overcome self-limiting concepts and judgments, the importance of removing obstacles of ego and self-induced suffering with the goal of creating a clean heart to allow for the rich spiritual experience of "spirit flow." The work also address such areas as the creation and use of ritual, use of sacred objects, the importance of sound and silence, and both the intimately personal and universally transcendent nature of symbols and archetypes as they relate to spiritual discovery and practice.
