The bavarian beer act, largely pushed by the catholic church, wanted to dismantle pagan european religions. So in mezo america and the pacific slopes of guatemala are these mushroom stones, s 200 of them known in the world. And i'm really superhonored that i am now the custodian of 23 of these mesoamerican mayan mushroom stones That i have acquired over forty years,. Several of them given to me by estates before they went up on auction. But this is really important to me. I had them up on a mantel, but i'm so worried it t an earthquake that fall and break ow two thousand year old mushroom stones

[NOTE: All quotations are by Paul Stamets.]
"As we reach down and we find a mushroom, we have a Eureka moment that as we touch the mushroom we are touching a portal into an underground network of wisdom."
"In a single cubic inch of soil there can be more than eight miles of mycelium."
"Mushrooms had their form well before we had ours. These are ancestral organisms. These are not just miscellaneous little fungi growing on the ground. These are elders. These are ancient individuals. These are bastions of knowledge. Encyclopedic in their history of evolution."
"[Consuming psilocybin mushrooms] would be a shared community experience. And it wouldn't happen one time. It wouldn't happen ten times. It would happen millions upon millions upon millions of times over millions of years. Circumstantially, you cannot deny the possibility that the constant ingestion of magic mushrooms would have an impact on the evolution of human consciousness."
