183. The Immortality Key; Psychedelics and the Ancient Age | Brian Muraresku & Prof. Carl Ruck
The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast
**Ancient Mysteries of eliusis **
Elusis was a place where initiates underwent a ceremony of death and rebirth, mirroring the journey of the goddess Persephone to the underworld. The Greeks, who are credited for inventing civilization, struggled with their identity being both Greek and Christian. The experience at Elusis was believed to go beyond a mere metaphor, with individuals feeling a visceral transformation. This journey was revered by ancient civilizations as a transformative experience that transcended mortality and guaranteed an afterlife. Not merely a place of learning, Elusis was where individuals went to experience something profound, akin to a sense of dying and being reborn, as emphasized by prominent philosophers like Plato and Aristotle.
