Santa Claus, Christmas, and Mushrooms.

"Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing
Many many men can't see the open road.
Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know"
-- Led Zeppelin


Figure 3. The Little People
Often associated with Gnomes, Fairies and ‘little people’, the beauty of this mushroom makes it a favorite for artists. Certain artists also reveal deeper symbolic information. The mystical aspect is generally reserved for those that happen to be ‘in the know.

The information on this website is for everyone. Humanity's connection with the gifts of the Gods and the myths surrounding them is as ancient as it is universal. This website offers you gifts, some of them can be found under Pine trees in nature. Just as presents are placed under trees and exchanged during Winter Solstice (Christmas) there is a present waiting for you under the trees if you have the understanding of where to look and what exactly to look for. These pages will offer explanations for this and many other mysterious things.

Mankind's connection with other life forms on this planet, including those in the plant kingdom, is often dismissed with ambivalence or ignored as unimportant. Plants that produce altered states of consciousness are similarly dismissed, or even reviled as something at odds with normal human consciousness. However, knowledge and usage of these plants may be the most important thing man has ever known. In an evolutionary sense the consciousness expanding substances incorporated into human diet are responsible for unique contributions to our genetic makeup and heritage. Make no mistake about it; these plants manipulated human DNA over the course of millions of years. The reality is that the plants that expand (multidimensionalize) consciousness are truly the bounty of the Gods. We are talking about substances that have played a role in the evolutionary genetic and chemical libraries of the human brain as well as the cosmology of the mind (Myth and Religion).

In a larger picture these earthly and heavenly gifts have contributed to humanity's ability to transcend the body. Consciousness based journeys within the vibratory fields (dimensions) generated by these plants are reportedly filled with beings, places and a myriad of indescribable things. Some of these things have become a part of human cosmology having manifested themselves into human myth and imagination. Either that or these real things have manifested themselves into our cosmology via our journeys within the realms of consciousness provided by these plants and/or chemicals. These plants are crucial to who humans really are and according to many ancient world traditions have been responsible for transforming primitive humanity, possessor of limited life, into beings capable of transcending the physical body and living forever. This is what many of the myths and religious stories are actually about.

These plants are very likely to have been instrumental in evolving human brain structure and chemical makeup and even consciousness to the point that remnants of the states achieved through their usage have remained as elements of what we call regular consciousness. We owe the advancement of consciousness and capacity for higher thinking to our plant allies. Still today the usage of these plants is beneficial to the mind in the extreme, thus we can recognize this recurring theme from the worldwide myths detailing the finding or receiving these gifts of the gods.

Mankind's connection with spiritual and physical beings considered beyond the veil of vision and time is an extremely complex and rewarding study. We can call it Philosophy, Mythology or even Theology but whatever you want to call it, it is a part of every human being's life journey in one way or the other.
