Simple theory of the ego-death and rebirth experience

Simple theory of the ego-death and rebirth experience.  My theory is the entheogen determinism theory of religion, which I am the first to clearly discover, systematize, and publish.

Simple theory of the ego-death and rebirth experience.  The essence, paradigm, origin, and fountainhead of religion is the use of visionary plants to routinely trigger the intense mystic altered state, producing loose cognitive association binding, which then produces an experience of frozen block-universe determinism with a single, pre-existing, ever-existing future.  The return of the ordinary state of consciousness is allegorized as a transcendence of Necessity or cosmic determinism.  Myth describes this mystic-state experience.  Initiation is classically a series of some 8 visionary-plant sessions, interspersed with study of perennial philosophy.  Most religion is a distortion, corruption, literalization, and cooptation of this standard initiation system.

The entheogenic Christ-myth and block- universe ego-death

The only simple and comprehensible theory of the ego-death and rebirth experience.  The only essence, paradigm, origin, core, fountainhead, and ultimate goal of religion is the use of visionary plants to routinely trigger the intense mystic altered state, producing loose cognitive association binding, which then produces an experience of frozen block-universe determinism with a single, pre-existing, ever-existing future.  The return of the ordinary state of consciousness is allegorized as a transcendence of Necessity or cosmic determinism.  Myth describes this mystic-state experience.  Initiation is classically a series of some 8 visionary-plant sessions, interspersed with study of perennial philosophy.  Most religion is a distortion, corruption, literalization, cooptation, and missing-the-point overcomplication of this simple, standard initiation system.

A bit of biographical information

I am a sensitive artist.  Nobody understands me, because I am so deep.  In my work, I make allusions to books that nobody else has read, music that nobody else has heard, and art that nobody else has seen. I can't help it, because I am so much more intelligent and well-rounded than everyone who surrounds me.

I stopped watching TV when I was six years old because it was so boring and stupid, and started reading books and going to recitals and art galleries.  But I don't go to recitals anymore, because my hearing is too sensitive.  And I don't go to art galleries anymore, because there are people there, and I can't deal with people, because they don't understand me.  I stay home reading books that challenge my intellect, and working on my work, which no one understands.

 

My bio info was a joke, and was written by John Hall of King Missile.

The naive freewill assumption develops throughout childhood, up to the series of initiations, then the boy grows a beard.  One sufi idea that seems related: "I gazed upon the slave boy and beheld God."  A metaphor for uninitiated/initiated is bearded/beardless.  Girl/woman, boy/man, child/adult is equalent metaphorically; similar is animal/man, or woman-born/God-born, or mortal/immortal (perishable/imperishable), unstable/stable.
