Dan Merkur Books

In this companion work to The Mystery of Manna, Dan Merkur sheds new light on the use of psychedelics in the Western mystery tradition.. He discusses certain teachings of Philo of Alexandria, Rabbi Moses Maimonides, and St. Bernard of Clairvaux, which refer to special meditations to be performed while partaking of the "psychedelic sacrament."

Explores the unacknowledged psychological element in Maimonides' work, one which prefigures the latter insights of Freud.
