Entheogen: Awakening the Divine Within is a feature length documentary which invites the viewer to rediscover an enchanted cosmos in the modern world by awakening to the divine within.

The film examines the re-emergence of archaic techniques of ecstacy in the modern world by weaving a synthesis of ecological and evolutionary awareness,electronic dance culture, and the current pharmacological re-evaluation of entheogenic compounds. Within a narrative framework that imagines consciousness itself to be evolving, Entheogen documents the emergence of techno-shamanism in the post-modern world that frames the following questions: How can a renewal of ancient initiatory rites of passage alleviate our ecological crisis? What do trance dancing and festivals celebrating unbridled artistic expression speak to in our collective psyche? How do we re-invent ourselves in a disenchanted world from which God has long ago withdrawn? Entheogen invites the viewer to consider that the answers to these questions lie within the consciousness of each and every human being, and are accessible if only we give ourselves permission to awaken to the divine within.

Stan Grof, Marilyn Schlitz, Ralph Metzner, Alex Grey, Terrence McKenna, John Markoff, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Kat Harrison among others, postulate how the disenchantment of the modern world may be remedied by summoning the courage to take the next leap in the evolution of planetary consciousness.

  • How do they keep the lid on this stuff?

  • I ordered this DVD after listening to some of Terrence McKenna's superb lectures. After watching the DVD, I cannot really recommend it to anyone. From start to finish the film wantonly and tactlessly utilizes a "techno" soundtrack, often drowning out the commentary and interviews that offers us the understanding we seek. The film seems to appeal to those who abuse these tools that can expand our conciousness, ultimately focusing on making the film a "trippy" experience.

  • The music is 'Union Jack - Two Full Moons & A Trout (Chab Remix)' for all who are interested...

  • Can anyone tell me the music played throughout this video? I really like it and would like to listen to it.

  • @BLACKROCKCCITY if you ever do find this remix, post!

  • @caribouchrist your musical opinion is irrelevant, many people who listen to psychedelic trance and techno do not abuse drugs, fair enough it ,may drown out the commentary but no need to have a go at music lovers we are not all like that...........

  • @caribouchrist that is just your lame opinion, i love to eat mushrooms they cahnged my life and opened my mind.

  • @pajarillo954 Are you trying to say that you have this remix?...Cause I just can't find it =/
