  R: (66g) Book of Hours of Catherine of Cleves Collecting Manna from Heaven c. 1440 AD In the following quotes by Jesus, from Proverbs, we learn that our own “Living Water” is the best to drink from, implying that our urine is the best source: (15) Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. (Proverbs 5:15) And in John, Jesus proclaims that the water he gives will spring up from within the people he imparts it to, which will give them “eternal life”: (11) “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? (12) Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?” (13) Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, (14) but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:11-14) Jesus claims to be the Bread of Life, in the next extract, from John, we read: (32) Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. (33) For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” (34) “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.” (35) Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6:32-35) In the next quote from Jesus, in John, Jesus is telling people to eat him and drink his blood which will give them eternal life. We also learn, that if one does not eat Jesus flesh and drink his blood, they have “no life in them.” Well, I won’t say people who don’t do psychedelics have no life in them, but I would say that people who do, have a preponderance of gleam in their eyes and smile in their hearts. (53) Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. (54) Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. (55) For my flesh is real food and my blood is real |
drink. (56) Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. (57) Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. (58) This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” (59) He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum. (John 6:53-59) In Paul, Jesus’s disciples ask him how they will know that it is him, and what sign will he give them?: (30) So they asked him (Jesus), “What sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? (31) Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’ (32) Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. (33) For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” (34) “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.” (35) Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life.” – (Paul 6:30-35) Then shortly afterwards … “(41) At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” (42) They said, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, ‘I came down from heaven’? (43) “Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus answered. (44) “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day. (45) It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me.” (Paul 6:41-45) (146) This latter extract implies that you cannot just be given the keys to the mysteries, you must seek them out. Only those who actively seek out the mushroom, will take part in its ceremonies and enjoy being with God, through his son (the mushroom). It is only when the soul is ready for this kind of experience that one will venture into this area and seek it out. There is a “knowing curiosity” about mushrooms that we all have since childhood and it is further engrained in us through culture by the sin of partaking of the apple of knowledge and accepting the vice of the serpent. There is always that temptation because it’s always taboo, but the soul knows what it must do to be able to think clearly to be in touch with god/dess and to survive spiritually. When it’s the right time we all find what we need the most. Now, Jesus also declares that he is “the True Vine” – Which implies there is a “false vine,” which seems to be the grapevine. This makes perfect sense and makes the imagery of grapes in the Greek and Roman eras replacing the mushroom, even more believable as we read these words, from Jesus himself, mind you: (1) “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.” (John 15:1) (146) Apples of Apollo, p. 104 |
