Supernatural: Meetings with the Ancient Teachers of Mankind
Book • 2006
In 'Supernatural', Graham Hancock delves into the mysterious transformation in human history that occurred around 50,000 years ago, when humans suddenly developed art, religion, sophisticated symbolism, and innovative thinking.
Hancock's journey takes him from the prehistoric painted caves of Europe and South Africa to the Amazon rainforest, where he investigates the influence of hallucinogens like Ayahuasca and other psychotropic substances on the evolution of the human mind.
He explores the possibility that these substances may allow access to other dimensions and that the 'supernatural beings' depicted in ancient art could be real entities that have guided human development.
The book also considers the idea that human evolution may be more purposeful and intelligent than the random process described by Darwin.
