Using LSD to imprint the Thelemic experience (introductory outline)

* Introduction
- LSD can be used as an imprinter
- Leary's work with 8-circuits, etc.
-Jung's theories of unconscious, LSD as something that releases unconscious contents
- A sort of Thelemic syntax or map can be used to both 'navigate' through this experience and to 'imprint' a certain perspective/attitude to life
- This is done by unifying the universal physiological and psychological occurences during the LSD experience to various symbols and passages from Thelemic texts

* LSD as imprinter
-What does it mean for LSD to 'imprint'?
-What are the various 'stages' - significant portions of time characterized by various subjective effects as the substance runs its course through the body - of the LSD experience?
-What are some major realizations and perceptions that appear to occur somewhat universally?

* Thelema as a map
-The imagery and passages may be used to give a viable interpretation to the entheogenic experience & concretize the importance of Thelema in one's life
-Symbology: Symbols of especial importance to Thelema must be attributed to various 'perspectives' and 'feelings' during the experience
1) Nuit: infinite possibilities
2) Hadit: flame burning in the heart/consciousness
3) Horus: the whole system; homo totus
4) The child (Hoor)
-Passages: Passages also use symbology but allow for words to describe understandings & notions

-images of power
1) Gnarled oak of God (A'ash)
2) Hair of nuit (AL; 418)
3) Hadit/flame in the heart (AL)
4) RHK as warrior (AL; Tzaddi; A'ash)

-ultimate aimlessness
-Liber LXV ch.II
-Liber AL ch.II

-revaluation of values
-Do what thou wilt (AL)
-All things lawful (A'ash; VII)

-All things as acts of love & joyful
- AL; VII; A'ash, etc.

- Solve et Coagula/IAO/0 and 2
-The 'creation of the world' from undifferentiated-ness (AL I:28-30)
-Liber LXV (ch.2)

* The 'Psychedelic Experience' by Leary et al. using the Tibetan Book of the Dead should be used as a model, except substituting Thelemic terms. It is of note that the phrase 'clear light' appears in Liber AL. ("But thou hast all in the clear light, and some, though not all, in the dark.") I:56
