1. Perfect bliss is boring to the degree that it is blissful.
2. It was in order to alleviate the suffering of perfect boredom that the divine forgot some of itself, and, in doing so, dreamed up the Great Fractal.
3. The first thing that the divine dreamed up was a sine wave.
4. The second thing that the divine dreamed up was another sine wave, perpendicular to the first one.
5. The rest of the Great Fractal is also composed of sine waves, each running perpendicular to a previous one. This is true of all realms within the Great Fractal, whether physical, astral, mental or spiritual.
6. The divine dreamed up the Great Fractal faster than it could observe itself doing so. As such, the divine was left with the task of exploration.
7. What we call the physical world is one of the denser realms within the Great Fractal. Being dense, suffering is more intense here than in the subtler realms.
8. The real question is why our fragments of consciousness incarnated into this world and not one of the infinite others.
9. The only answer is that the divine willed it so, on the basis that incarnating into this world was appropriate for our frequencies of consciousness.
10. One reason to incarnate into a dense part of the Great Fractal is because the frequency of one’s consciousness is so low that the beings in higher realms and higher dimensions would suffer from one’s odious presence.
11. Another reason is because one’s true will is to burn away the impurities within one’s consciousness as rapidly as possible, and the lower the realm or dimension the more possibility there is for this.
12. Every part of the Great Fractal is filled with the consciousness of the divine at every moment.
13. Some parts of the Great Fractal experience a higher intensity of consciousness. This occurs when multiple fragments of consciousness experience the exact same vibration at the same time, which itself occurs when that part of the Great Fractal entertains the gods more than the others.
14. The Tard says to himself: the physical world was created by a force that is outside of us.
15. The Elementalist, understanding the First and Fourth Tenets, understands that the Great Fractal was dreamed up by divine consciousness.
16. The Elementalist understands that this physical world is merely a subset of the Great Fractal, and one in which perceptions are bound by certain laws.
17. This physical world is created in the moment from being observed by the fragments of consciousness that have incarnated here.
18. If the divine should tire of this world, there are infinite others. It’s simply a matter of willing to incarnate into one of them.

The pharmaceutical machine is turning its attention to psychedelics. Having finally milked dry the antipsychotic and antidepressant market, Big Pharma has sniffed out new profit potential in using psychedelics to alleviate mental illnesses. This new paradigm brings the potential for great benefits if we get it right, but also great risks if we get it wrong.
All of this research, however, is currently just data points, with no unifying theory to explain it.
Researchers understand that psychedelics can alleviate the suffering associated with several conditions, but they don’t understand why, or how to maximise the benefits of these mysterious substances. The danger is that they will never come to understand, because their science is based on erroneous assumptions about the nature of reality, and these erroneous assumptions prevent them from seeing reality accurately.
The vast majority of researchers in the field of psychology are materialists who believe that the brain generates consciousness, and therefore that all of the contents of consciousness are simply brain states. This is, in fact, the great delusion of psychology as it is currently practiced. The delusion is so prevalent that it’s rare to ever hear a psychologist challenge it. Anyone who does is usually shunned.
This materialist paradigm is assumed without any hesitation or doubt. One consequence is that all psychedelic phenomena are explained in materialist terms. Some researchers define a psychedelic as a high dose of a hallucinogen. Others group psychedelics based on which receptor sites they operate on. Inevitably, the psychedelic experience is explained (but only ever conjecturally) by a change in brain state.
The end result of the assumption that all suffering is caused by chemical imbalances: psychiatry has been reduced to dishing out pharmaceuticals. This is why modern psychiatry is next to useless (although it is true that a great many acutely psychotic people can benefit from being administered a sedative for a while). In this context, psychedelic sacraments have shown great promise, as a medicine that need only be administered once, and with a minimum of physical side-effects.
But in order for them to be properly understood, and therein properly utilised, psychological science will first have to outgrow materialism.
The fact is that psychedelics don’t alleviate suffering by altering brain chemistry or brain structure (at least not primarily). They primarily alleviate suffering by destroying spiritual illusions and delusions. The word ‘psychedelic’ means ‘soul-revealing’, and it’s precisely this quality that enables psychedelics to have their therapeutic effect. They reveal – in Aldous Huxley’s words – the fundamental all-rightness of the Universe.
In Western society, a great deal of suffering has resulted from the adoption of certain false metaphysical beliefs. The three most prominent false spiritual beliefs are: this physical world is all there is; the brain generates consciousness; there’s nothing divine about either this physical world or consciousness. All three of these beliefs are harmful, but the second one is particularly so.
If a person truly believes that the brain generates consciousness, then it inevitably follows that consciousness ends with the death of the brain. Because the death of the brain is inevitable, from there it follows that all experiences and memories of experiences are meaningless, because these are dependent on the brain and will disappear with brain death. Because nothing continues beyond the death of the physical body, there’s no overall purpose or goal to life here. It’s all just one bizarre fluke.
What remains to be commonly accepted is that this attitude leads to colossal amounts of misery, hopelessness and despair – and it’s not even correct.
If a patient comes to a psychiatrist in a state of existential despair induced by the apparent meaninglessness of life, the psychiatrist can do little other than commiserate on a human level (and perhaps dish out some pharmaceuticals). They cannot assure the patient that consciousness survives the death of the physical body and therefore that life actually is meaningful, because the vast majority of the time psychiatrists are materialist atheists. Christianity can’t fill the gap because no-one really believes it.
The uselessness of psychiatry, as it is practiced today, is why so many people take drugs.
Many addictions are fuelled by despair at the apparent meaninglessness of life. To get forced into existence as a mortal creature, doomed to suffer old age and death for no apparent reason, seems like a kind of torture. Many find this torture so excruciating that they decide it’s worth numbing the pain with alcohol or heroin. Others fill the gap with sex, power, social status or any of the other ape instincts that can substitute for a meaningful life.
Pharmaceuticals don’t help here. They can numb and stupify, and they can prevent the extreme agitation that often leads to fatal consequences, but they don’t alleviate any spiritual suffering. They don’t free people from fear of death. They don’t help people find any meaning in life.
Psychedelics liberate people from this spiritual suffering. They blast away the delusion that consciousness is trapped in the brain and doomed to die with the body. They reveal an entirely new world: one of meaning, purpose and fundamental all-rightness. This explains why there is a correlation between feeling mystic experiences on a trip and the therapeutical efficacy of that trip.
In other words, the more a trip helps a person to see beyond, the more suffering that trip will alleviate in that person. This is because so much psychiatric suffering is ultimately caused, not by material causes, but by spiritual illusions and delusions. The therapeutic effects of psychedelics lie primarily in their ability to dispel these illusions and delusions, and not until this is understood can the benefits of psychedelics be fully realised.
1. Knowing themselves to be a fragment of the consciousness that is the prima materia, the Elementalist knows their physical body to be nothing more than a cloak of dreams that has been taken on to entertain the gods.
2. The physical body of the Elementalist, like everything that exists in the material world, is just a vibration being experienced by consciousness.
3. All possible vibrations are being experienced at all times.
4. All vibrations that exist in this dimension also exist in higher dimensions.
5. Every vibration that has arisen in this world, and then fallen, still exists in the higher dimensions, and in parallel dimensions.
6. Every frequency that has entered this world, and then exited, still exists in the higher dimensions, and in parallel dimensions.
7. Therefore, all beings that one encountered in this world but which have died, still exist in the higher dimensions, and in parallel dimensions.
8. When one’s fragment of consciousness shrugs off its cloak of dreams and reunites with the divine, it also reunites with all other frequencies.
9. In doing so, it reunites with all other lost and loved ones.
10. If a fragment of consciousness dies with the same frequency that you died with in your previous life, that fragment will, as per the Law of Assortative Reincarnation, be born in this world to experience your life.
11. You have already lived as every creature that exists in every world in every dimension.
12. Therefore, to be incarnated as anything is to be resurrected.
13. Each of us is a fragment of consciousness and is here to experience the illusion of separation.
14. The illusion of separation, and the Prime Delusion that comes with it, entertains the gods immensely.
15. After the death of one’s physical expression here in this world, one’s fragment of consciousness returns to the world above the physical, where there is no separation.
16. The person who knows that consciousness is the prima materia knows that resurrection in the physical sense is impossible, because the atoms of one’s body will recombine into other forms after death.
17. The person who knows that consciousness is the prima materia also knows that reuniting one’s fragment of consciousness with the divine is the same as the resurrection of everything.
18. Forgetting these secrets entertains the gods, which is why we incarnate into this world in a state of extreme ignorance.

1. The fool believes that this world is all there is.
2. There are an infinite number of other worlds, some better than and some worse than this one. All are different.
3. The Multiverse is the name given to the division of the Great Fractal into worlds that make sense.
4. The Multiverse is a subset of the Great Fractal.
5. The Great Fractal contains all possible sensory and perceptual impressions.
6. The vast majority of possible paths through the Great Fractal make little coherent sense to the fragment of consciousness that would observe them.
7. The gods are more entertained by a path through the Great Fractal that makes coherent narrative sense than by one that does not.
8. In order to maximise the narrative coherency of the experience of moving through the Great Fractal, the Multiverse was created, and with it the illusion of birth and death.
9. The Multiverse is broken up into an infinity of worlds, covering the entirety of the Great Feminine Axis.
10. Each of these worlds has a base vibration and a base frequency.
11. Beings incarnate into worlds wherein the frequency of those worlds matches the frequency of the consciousness of those beings.
12. All beings whose frequency of consciousness is below a certain level will incarnate into the Multiverse, where there is birth and death, instead of the higher parts of the Great Fractal.
13. No-one can complain about the awfulness of this world, because it simply matches the frequency of our fragments of consciousness.
14. For us to be worthy of incarnating into a higher-frequency world, our fragments of consciousness would themselves have to be higher frequency.
15. The Multiverse serves to bind those of us of lower frequencies to a particular world.
16. This action is taken as a kind of quarantine. It prevents, to some extent, beings of higher frequencies from being sullied by the presence of beings of lower frequencies.
17. This quarantine process is voluntary, because it is understood by all honest beings to be necessary.
18. Low-frequency beings might need to incarnate in a world of birth and death before they can become motivated to learn the importance of behaving correctly.
19. High-frequency beings are liberated from the Multiverse, and can explore the Great Fractal without the restrictions of death and incarnation into a physical body.
