Summary

Inspiring teachings centered on navigating our world’s collective challenges with indigenous wisdom and the power of psychedelics

• With contributions from Christopher Bache, Zoe Helene, Dennis McKenna, Martina Hoffmann, The Dank Duchess, Jamie Wheal, Grandmother Maria Alice, and others

• Explores the immense healing intelligence of nature, the wisdom of ancient Indigenous prophecies and shamanic practices, the importance of the Divine Feminine for environmental regeneration, and the crucial role of psychedelic and entheogenic plants in initiating transformations of consciousness

Exploring the way forward for humanity in the face of unprecedented crisis, more than 25 contributors show how the wisdom of Indigenous peoples and the power of psychedelics can help us enact the radical shift in consciousness necessary to navigate the collapse of the old world order and the birth of a new consciousness.

We hear from psychedelic visionaries Christopher Bache, Zoe Helene, Wade Davis, Chris Kilham, Laurel Sugden, and others on the promise of psychedelic medicines for spiritual and healing work. We learn about Indigenous stories to support our transformation from Native American leader Solana Booth, ancestral memory from Grandmother Maria Alice Campos Freire, cannabis’s role in world building from Minelli Eustàcio-Costa, the ritual roots of talking plants from Michael Stuart Ani, and alchemy across the arc of time from shaman Ya’Acov Darling Khan. We also hear from cannabis grower The Dank Duchess; Tyson Yunkaporta, Australian Aboriginal artist and scholar; visionary artist Martina Hoffmann; activist Duane Elgin; Kohenet Rachel Kann, ordained Jewish priestess and ceremonialist; and several other wise leaders for our time.

Throughout these profound essays we are reminded of the immense healing intelligence of our plant allies, of the wisdom of shamanic practices, of the importance of the Divine Feminine for environmental regeneration, and of the crucial role of entheogenic plants in initiating transformations of consciousness and healing our world’s collective disconnection from Spirit.

Stephen Gray is a teacher and writer on spiritual subjects and sacramental medicines. He has worked extensively with Tibetan Buddhism, the Native American Church, and with entheogenic medicines. He is also a conference and workshop organizer, leader, and speaker. The editor of Cannabis and Spirituality, he lives in Vancouver.

0:38.0	Welcome to Destiny. Now here's your host, Cliff Dunning.
0:42.0	Well, I'm back one week in England and I had a great time. A lot to talk about, which I will be presenting on future programs.
0:49.0	And, you know, I'm always fascinated by megaliths, monoliths, stones, of magnificently large size weighing multiple tons.
1:01.0	Ave Berry is an eye opener. If you've always, if you wanted to see stone circles, Ave Berry is the place to be.
1:10.0	I've never seen such huge, huge stones placed in circles and how in the hell they drag those from 10 miles away or transported them.
1:25.0	We shouldn't even say drag, transported them is anyone's guess. We just, we just don't know.
1:31.0	By the way, Philippe Ullins and wife, thank you so much for being my guest. As it turns out, guess what? I got into a rail strike.
1:41.0	Third day I was there. I was forced to stay in Salisbury. Thank you Hugh Newman for keeping an eye on things and I stayed at a bed and breakfast for a couple of extra days.
1:55.0	I couldn't get back to London. So, and then it was there was some driving rain. If you go to Facebook as a great picture that Hugh took of me right in front of a stone hinge where I'm in my full rain gear.
2:12.0	And I'm holding onto my, my cap because the rain is blowing, the blowing and the wind is so strong that it's threatening to remove anything that I have on my head.
2:28.0	And unfortunately I got on a plane. I had a cold and I'm getting over a cold. So, England is a real mysterious place, a fun visit.
2:42.0	And, and I got to say this too, the museums are world class, simply world class. And I, I've never seen so many wonderful objects.
2:57.0	And I have to say this also that the Egyptians have been wanting a number of those objects back most notably the Pharaoh Ramsies, the second sculpture, this one main sculpture.
3:10.0	And probably the jewel of any museum which is the Rosetta Stone, this amazing stone that reveals three types of writing and what was used eventually in the 1800s to break the Egyptian hieroglyphs.
3:32.0	So, we understand what the dynastics were talking about. So, that's a, that by itself is, is fascinating. So, but in the future coming programs I will be talking more about what I experienced.
3:46.0	Some of the energetics I brought a trifield meter. And let me tell you, some of the stone works, some of the monoliths are actually pulsing energy.
3:56.0	They sit on lay lines. And for those of you who think, oh, that doesn't exist. Well, this machine that I had with me verifies evidence of subtle energy, geo magnetic, energetic fields. And people talk about it.
