Though now largely banned by governments and mainstream religions alike, entheogens have played a direct role in the spiritual practices of countless cultures. Martin W. Ball, Ph.D., makes the case for the value and significance of direct spiritual experience through entheogen use and how they can alter our collective understanding of the nature of reality and our personal relationship with the divine. Exploring topics like 2012, U.S. Supreme Court decisions regarding religious use of psychedelics, the phenomenology of entheogenic shamanism and mysticism, the history of sacred medicine use for spiritual practice, and practical advice for working with 5-MeO-DMT, Ball takes his readers through a philosophical, spiritual, and personal journey into the heart of the sacred in search of a vision of hope and transformation. Both inspiring and insightful, The Entheogenic Evolution is a call to awaken.
