"The Bible Is The World's Most Over-Rated Book" By Benedictine Abbott, Dom Aelred Graham... With Correlated Commentary By Comparative Religion Professor, Huston Smith

 Bella


I admire the work of deceased Liverpool abbot Dom Aelred Graham, a professed Benedictine, who wrote books titled "Zen Catholicism," "Converations: Christian And Buddhist," and "The End Of Religion" - a play on words ultimately aimed at focusing people's attention on "the proper ends-aspirations-and-goals of religion."

Here is a verbatim quote:

And here is Huston Smith -- America's premier professor of comparative religion - reviewing Dom Aelred Graham's life and work.

I recommend Huston Smith's book, "Why Religion Matters" - a small 200 page volume in which Smith summarized his "life findings."

I read "Religion Matters' on the steps of Iglesia San Matias in the heart of Jalatlaco, Oaxaca. https://www.wholereason.com/2021/03/a-summary-and-review-of-why-religion-matters-by-huston-smith.html

Notably, Dom Aelred Graham explored the psychedelic drug, LSD, and drew a fascinating conclusion about its relationship with "The Holy Spirit." https://tricycle.org/magazine/high-history-buddhism/ 

I do not recommend LSD.

However, with skilled guidance, certain mature, studious, middle-age humans may benefit from carefully-prepared-and-properly-contextualized use of psilocybin mushrooms.

Do keep in mind that psychedelic use is like an elevator:
"Sometimes you get a lift.
Sometimes you get the shaft."

At bottom, I think Jesuit James Martin has the best handle on "the esoteric."

Just "cut to the chase."
