"narcotics", what a funny term, its just a bunch of substances, no different from what xanex or other prescription drugs can do to u, except designed to fuel the drug war
the serpent eating its head is the sign of ouroboros or uroboros, its a symbol for the cycle of life, or recycling, thats where its wisdom and strength has its meaning, this man says it will devour itself up to its head to hide what the symbol should actually mean
He's right folks! The industrial/digital we're in has corrupted our minds worse than any drug could! Now we can't experience that great old-time delphic mystery religion! Amen!
i think he was quite smart but if you apply what he says in this lecture to cannabis he is full of shit!!!!! how dare he assume that all "narcotics" destroy the nervous system or lead to violence. as far as i'm concerned alot of this is the type of crap that leads to the mass incarceration and stigmatization of nonviolent humans and a peaceful spiritual practice. i wish i was there to call him on some very unscientific BULLSHIT!!!!
@portaltechnology32 I dont think you understand what hes saying. Of anybody, I would think that Manly P Hall, having written the most complete book on religious teachings throughout history, would know of these religions you speak of. Can you name one? Unfortunately, it is not a convenient fact that doing as mild of a drug as Ganja does in fact have negative consequences. Its actually scientifically confirmed, but thats not to support those who have never tried it. see next post...
@portaltechnology32 What physically happens when you smoke is this: the fatty covering to your nerve endings, called the Milan Sheath, starts to wear away leaving the end exposed. This is what a habitual smoker experiences when he stops smoking. He finds himself uncomfortable, irritated, and over-sensitive (as has been my experience). What Hall was advocating was discernment. Not necessarily abstinence. Cows milk has codene in it, so this shows drugs are natural but dont go getting drunk on milk
@JohnWhitesideParsons I'm just saying I never heard of Manly P Hall until people started calling him a New World Order Occultist. But what he's saying is thoughtful and true (at least that's my conclusion.) Did you have a different opinion.

@JohnWhitesideParsons "Exposing" the new age is just a way to get people to research it. And its well worth it.
