Drawing upon his decades of experience as a teacher of Buddhism, breathing, yoga, and embodied spirituality, Will Johnson examines Eastern spiritual perspectives on marijuana and offers specific guidelines and exercises for integrating cannabis into spiritual practice.The author explains how the great Hindu god Shiva enjoyed consuming bhang, a marijuana mixture that would cause his body to make spontaneous movements. From these cannabis-inspired movements, Shiva brought the body-focused practices of dance and yoga to the world.

He explores how to embrace cannabis for the practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance, sitting meditation, and gazing meditation. He reveals how the ecstatic surrender to the feeling energies of the body in these practices is enhanced through the ingestion of Shiva’s herb, allowing you to open the body’s energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your higher self.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID

My special guest is author Bill Schutt here to discuss the history of cannibalism as it naturally occurs in different lifeforms on the planet. Get his book Cannibalism: A Perfectly Natural History on Amazon.“Surprising. Impressive.  Cannibalism restores my faith in humanity.” —Sy Montgomery, The New York Times Book ReviewFor centuries scientists have written off cannibalism as a bizarre phenomenon with little biological significance. Its presence in nature was dismissed as a desperate response to starvation or other life-threatening circumstances, and few spent time studying it. A taboo subject in our culture, the behavior was portrayed mostly through horror movies or tabloids sensationalizing the crimes of real-life flesh-eaters. But the true nature of cannibalism--the role it plays in evolution as well as human history--is even more intriguing (and more normal) than the misconceptions we’ve come to accept as fact.In Cannibalism: A Perfectly Natural History,zoologist Bill Schutt sets the record straight, debunking common myths and investigating our new understanding of cannibalism’s role in biology, anthropology, and history in the most fascinating account yet written on this complex topic. Schutt takes readers from Arizona’s Chiricahua Mountains, where he wades through ponds full of tadpoles devouring their siblings, to the Sierra Nevadas, where he joins researchers who are shedding new light on what happened to the Donner Party--the most infamous episode of cannibalism in American history. He even meets with an expert on the preparation and consumption of human placenta (and, yes, it goes well with Chianti).Bringing together the latest cutting-edge science, Schutt answers questions such as why some amphibians consume their mother’s skin; why certain insects bite the heads off their partners after sex; why, up until the end of the twentieth century, Europeans regularly ate human body parts as medical curatives; and how cannibalism might be linked to the extinction of the Neanderthals. He takes us into the future as well, investigating whether, as climate change causes famine, disease, and overcrowding, we may see more outbreaks of cannibalism in many more species--including our own.Cannibalism places a perfectly natural occurrence into a vital new context and invites us to explore why it both enthralls and repels us.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID

Author and investigator Tobias Wayland has collected these reports for the first time in one volume, along with his analysis and insider perspective as a member of the investigative team. The phenomena described within represent the continuation of a decades-long series of events first recorded in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, in the late '60s, but that has likely been with humanity since our advent, and seems just as likely to be with us until our end.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID

My special guest is Katherine Ramsland here to discuss details of the book she co-wrote with serial killer Dennis Rader about his murderous life.In 1974, Dennis Lynn Rader stalked and murdered a family of four in Wichita, Kansas. Since adolescence, he had read about serial killers and imagined becoming one. Soon after killing the family, he murdered a young woman and then another, until he had ten victims. He named himself “B.T.K.” (bind, torture, kill) and wrote notes that terrorized the city. He remained on the loose for thirty years. No one who knew him guessed his dark secret. He nearly got away with his crimes, but in 2004, he began to play risky games with the police. He made a mistake. When he was arrested, Rader’s family, friends, and coworkers were shocked to discover that B.T.K. had been among them, going to work, raising his children, and acting normal. This case stands out both for the brutal treatment of victims and for the ordinary public face that Rader, a church council president, had shown to the outside world. Through jailhouse visits, telephone calls, and written correspondence, Katherine Ramsland worked with Rader himself to analyze the layers of his psyche. Using his drawings, letters, interviews, and Rader’s unique codes, she presents in meticulous detail the childhood roots and development of one man’s motivation to stalk, torture, and kill. She reveals aspects of the dark motivations of this most famous of living serial killers that have never before been revealed. In this book Katherine Ramsland presents an intelligent, original, and rare glimpse into the making of a serial killer and the potential darkness that lives next door.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID

My special guest tonight is Carl Abrahamsson who's here to discuss his book Occulture: The Unseen Forces That Drive Culture Forward.Explores the role of magic and the occult in art and culture from ancient times to today • Examines key figures behind esoteric cultural developments, such as Carl Jung, Anton LaVey, Paul Bowles, Aleister Crowley, and Rudolf Steiner • Explores the history of magic as a source of genuine counter culture and compares it with our contemporary soulless, digital monoculture • Reveals how the magic of art can be restored if art is employed as a means rather than an end and offers strategies to rekindle intuitive creativity Art, magic, and the occult have been intimately linked since our prehistoric ancestors created the first cave paintings some 50,000 years ago. As civilizations developed, these esoteric forces continued to drive culture forward, both visibly and behind the scenes, from the Hermetic ideas of the Renaissance, to the ethereal worlds of 19th century Symbolism, to the occult interests of the Surrealists. In this deep exploration of “occulture”--the liminal space where art and magic meet--Carl Abrahamsson reveals the integral role played by magic and occultism in the development of culture throughout history as well as their relevance to the continuing survival of art and creativity. Blending magical history and esoteric philosophy with his more than 30 years’ experience in occult movements, Abrahamsson looks at the phenomena and people who have been seminal in modern esoteric developments, including Carl Jung, Anton LaVey, Paul Bowles, Aleister Crowley, and Rudolf Steiner. Showing how art and magic were initially one and the same, the author explores the history of magic as a source of genuine counter culture and compares it with our contemporary soulless, digital monoculture. He reveals how the magic of art can be restored if art is employed as a means rather than an end--if it is intense, emotional, violent, and expressive--and offers strategies for creating freely, magically, even spontaneously, with intent unfettered by the whims of trends, a creative practice akin to chaos magick that assists both creators and spectators to live with meaning. He also looks at intuition and creativity as the cornerstones of genuine individuation, explaining how insights and illuminations seldom come in collective forms. Exploring magical philosophy, occult history, the arts, psychology, and the colorful grey areas in between, Abrahamsson reveals the culturally and magically transformative role of art and the ways the occult continues to transform culture to this day.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID

Tonight, my special guest is Monique Faison Ross who's here to discuss how she narrowly escaped her obsessed ex-husband and his jealous rage.This domestic abuse survivor’s memoir shares an “engaging, powerful, and ultimately shocking story" of a bad marriage that ended in attempted murder (Lundy Bancroft, author of The Joyous Recovery). Monique Faison, the daughter of San Diego Charger’s football great Earl Faison, married her high school sweetheart soon after she discovered she was pregnant with his child. Her relationship with Chris had always been shaky, but his verbal abuse only increased—and then gave way to physical attacks. Eventually, Monique took their children and left. That was when the stalking and serious threats began. Nothing stopped him—not protection injunctions, police warnings, or even arrests. One fateful Monday morning, Chris kidnapped Monique in front of her children. After a nightmarish car ride that involved car crashes and rape, Chris beat her on the head with a shovel and abandoned her brutalized body in the woods, presuming she was dead. But playing dead was what saved her life.🔮 Unlock The Vault!Become a ⭐️ Mysterian ⭐️ and get instant access to hundreds of ad-free, uncensored episodes — plus exclusive bonus editions..🎧 Start your FREE 7-day trial on Patreon: 👉 patreon.com/mysteriousradio🌐 Or visit mysteriousradio.com to join now!DOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR IOSDOWNLOAD THE PATREON APP FOR ANDROID
