Salon2 009 – “Cannabis and Spirituality”

Guest speaker: Stephen Gray Stephen Gray PROGRAM NOTES: Date this lecture was recorded: April 2017 This week we talk with Stephen Gray, the editor & writer who pulled together the excellent collection of essays titled: "Cannabis and Spirituality: An Explorer’s Guide to an Ancient Plant Spirit Ally" In other vital news, if you've spent the last many years listening to Lorenzo on the Psychedelic Salon, go sign up for his Patreon site to support his work creating a postmodern form of autobiography. And if you want a taste of what he can produce, I found his book of maxims titled 'Scattered Thoughts' to be one of the best of its kind I've ever enjoyed: Here are three examples: "Few activities give one such a complete sense of accomplishment and pride in a job well done than successfully completing a drug deal." "Humans are Gaia's opposable thumbs." "I'm a free-lance iconoclast who is just trying to make the world a little safer for anarchy."
