An illustrated foray into the hidden truth about the use of psychoactive mushrooms to connect with the divine. - Draws parallels between Vedic beliefs and Judeo-Christian sects, showing the existence of a mushroom cult that crossed cultural boundaries. - Contends that the famed philosophers' stone of the alchemist was a metaphor for the mushroom. - Confirms and extends Robert Gordon Wasson's hypothesis of the role of the fly agaric mushroom in generating religious visions. Rejecting arguments that the elusive philosophers' stone of alchemy and the Hindu elixir of life were mere legend, Clark Heinrich provides a strong case that Amanita muscaria, the fly agaric mushroom, played this role in world religious history. Working under the assumption that this magic mushroom was the mysterious food and drink of the gods, Heinrich traces its use in Vedic and Puranic religion, illustrating how ancient cultures used the powerful psychedelic in esoteric rituals meant to bring them into direct contact with the divine. He then shows how the same mushroom symbols found in Hindu scriptures correspond perfectly to the symbols of ancient Judaism, Christianity, the Grail myths, and alchemy, arguing that miraculous stories as disparate as the burning bush of Moses and the raising of Lazarus from the dead can be easily explained by the use of this strange and powerful mushroom. While acknowledging the speculative nature of his work, Heinrich concludes that in many religious cultures and traditions the fly agaric mushroom--and in some cases ergot or psilocybin mushrooms--had a fundamental influence in teaching humans about the nature of God. His insightful book truly brings new light to the religious history of humanity.Binding Type: Paperback

No white residue
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I put this sunscreen on immediately after it was delivered. It smells so good & goes on smoothly without any white residue. It seems to protect the skin, but then again I put some on every hour on the hour and didn't have any issues. I will be reordering. I wish this was on subscribe and save, but will continue to purchase.

Product leaks into the cap
Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The packaging appears to be defective and potentially tampered with. Specifically, the nozzle is a different color from the rest of the tube—one that is not consistent with the brand’s standard packaging (I am familiar with this brand and have purchased it before). Additionally, the cap does not close properly, causing the product to leak into the lid and resulting in unnecessary waste.
This raises serious concerns about the product’s authenticity, quality control, and whether it may have been previously opened or altered.

Solid Option for a Sunscreen Spray! Nice Even Mist!
Item Package Quantity: 1
I’ve been using the Naked Sundays Hydrating Glow Mist SPF 50+ and overall I’m really impressed. One thing I was a little concerned about at first is that it does contain alcohol, so I expected it might be drying. Surprisingly, it hasn’t dried my skin out the way other similar products have, which is a big plus for me.
The scent is pleasant and not overpowering. It doesn’t have that harsh sunscreen smell that some sprays do, so it’s easy to reapply throughout the day without feeling like you’re coating yourself in fragrance.
In terms of finish, it’s not completely non greasy, but it’s also not overly heavy. I would call it slightly greasy, but noticeably less so than most sunscreen sprays I’ve tried. It gives a bit of a glow without feeling suffocating on the skin.
One of my favorite things about this product is the spray itself. The mist is very fine and even, which makes application quick and easy without leaving blotchy spots.
Overall, it’s a solid option if you want a convenient SPF mist that feels lighter than most, smells good, and doesn’t leave your skin feeling dried out.
