      Ranging across both published and anecdotal evidence, Pharmakon traces the story of drug use as a means of self-exploration. By examining apparently simple questions such as 'what is a drug?', Pharmakon deconstructs and reconstructs the idea of drug experience. Experiences that the author believes are fundamental to the process of self-actualisation and learning. Julian Vayne has written on a number of esoteric subjects (witchcraft, the tarot and the sociology of contemporary Paganism). This book is aimed at both the general reader and those who are interested in the use of drugs in a spiritual context. Delving into areas as diverse as philosophy and neurochemistry, this is a book that in both style and content seeks to invent a new understanding of drugs in culture. From Mandrake Speaks #100 'A well researched and informative look at a variety of popular and not-so-well-known drugs. He deals with how they interact with our minds and bodies both chemically and psychologically, and how we perceive substances on a personal and society-wide scale. The similarities discussed between some drug experiences and some mental illnesses may lead to different viewpoints on both. Liberally sprinkled with folklore and anecdotes, Pharmakon examines the use of drugs in self-exploration, employing a knowledgeable, yet down-to-earth approach that's interesting and readable.'

      Memento Mori
    • You hold in your hands the material result of many years' hard craft. This Book contains some of the secrets of Life itself; or rather, the occult deity of Life on Earth, Baphomet. Horned, vital, beautiful, awe full, our aeons old Chaos Magick idol finds a name from the Knights' Templar, then goes incognito through the Enlightenment (when flourished those great natural philosophers beloved of science historians), before emerging via devil worship and witchcraft into this era of Deep Ecology. Darwin could have used a picture of Baphomet as his frontispiece, to demonstrate the one flesh from which all species originate. Contacting this Great Spirit, the anima mundi, allows access to a new way of ordering the world, with fresh visions of how and why we could Live. Here the authors weave strands from their lives into a rich tapestry of images, which might give you a pointer or two towards your own self-realisation, whilst amusing, entertaining, and instructing along the way. Revolution, evolution, leap beyond the apocalypse to the Now!

    • Czym są ceremonie psychodeliczne? Czemu mogą służyć? W czym pomagają i jak wyglądają? W niniejszej książce, Julian Vayne, wytrawny praktyk zachodniej tradycji ezoterycznej oraz wschodnich systemów medytacyjnych omawia psychodeliczny trójkąt, na który składają się substancja psychoaktywna, nasze nastawienie i otoczenie. Przedstawia różne metody, dzięki którym doświadczenie psychodeliczne może stać się dla nas czymś bezpieczniejszy, głębszym i mądrzejszym. A przy okazji radosnym i zabawnym. Autor, będący czołowym przedstawicielem brytyjskiej sceny psychodelicznej, łączy perspektywę magiczną z dorobkiem badań naukowych, w których miał okazję uczestniczyć jako jeden z pionierów współczesnego renesansu badań nad odmiennymi stanami świadomości. Ceremonie psychodeliczne to przewodnik napisany dla osób zainteresowanych duchowym i transformacyjnym wykorzystaniem substancji psychoaktywnych. Książka nie namawia nikogo do zażywania substancji psychoaktywnych. Wiele opisanych w niej praktyk można wykonywać całkiem na trzeźwo. Może jednak nieść pomoc tym wszystkim, którzy decydują się na korzystanie ze środków zmieniających świadomość.
