Do you long to have spiritually transformative experiences the way yogis, mystics, and shamans around the world have for millennia?
Part One is a non-religious meditation guide with recommendations for using meditation to prepare for your psychedelic journey, to use during your journey, and to use as lifelong integration following your journey (or in between your future journeys). It is universal, useable by people with various spiritual backgrounds. If you already have a preferred meditation path, you will find the concepts here easily applicable to it.
Parts Two, Three, and Four offer guidance on how to responsibly and safely use psychedelics alone or with a sitter, without having to pay exorbitant fees to a psychedelic guide, therapist, or shaman. It includes specific instructions for growing psilocybin mushrooms and extracting DMT in the privacy and comfort of your home.
It also explains all the necessary details microdosing for the purpose of psychological wellness, including determining your appropriate dosage.
The "Golden Teacher" is not a person. It is the name of a popular strain of Psilocybe cubensis. The author was inspired to create this book and the online meditation program by the same name, in part, because of his experience with it.
This book can be used alone or as a companion to the online guided meditation program by the same name, Path of the Golden Teacher, comprised of over fifty guided meditations and other informative videos. They offer an effective and complete meditation path even without the use of psychedelics.
The book includes important reference materials for users of the online program. The specific meditation instructions are not included in the book, but it does contain important information about meditation which you can apply to the path of your choice. It also includes a discount code for the online program.
