MANNA / AMBROSIA / SOMA / TEONANACATL

Hell-Low from Heaven-High; I have written a book documenting the BIBLICAL use of MAGIC-MUSHROOMS.

Manna was the "food-from-heaven" provided by God to Israelites in the wilderness, according to the Bible the Israelites are said to have eaten Manna daily with Quail while escaping from slavery in Egypt. Whether Manna actually fell form the sky, or whether it came up from the ground depends on interpretation of many ancient documents both inside and outside of the Bible, as well as on an in-depth understanding of the linguistic connections and origins of the word Manna itself.

My book "Manna" Explores the evidence that Christ was the leader of a Pagan Cult teaching a revival/renaissance of an ancient Egypt Mysticism at the center of which existed a mushroom ritual, learned of by Moses and Christ, a mushroom religion known also to the Maya of ancient Mesoamerica, and many other cultures around the world. The Manna-Book asks if this knowledge was kept secret by an elite caste of priests within the Kabalistic Jewish Rabbis until such a time as Christ came and taught it to the masses, resulting in accusations of blasphemy and the crucifixion of Christians.

Exodus 16:14-24 indicates that MANNA was inevitably a MUSHROOM. It was a small round thing in the morning dew, it bred larva, and would melt to mush if not dried. KING JAMES VERSION.

Fly's eggs cause larvae/worms in mushrooms.

Daniel 5:3-5 with Exodus 16:32 and Hebrews 9:4

Daniel 5:3-5 with Exodus 16:32 and Hebrews 9:4 indicates that the mushroom was a DRUG. Those who drank from the cup containing MANNA had visions within the hour. Psilocybin takes 30-40 minutes to induce visions.

Hebrews 9:4 makes it clear that MANNA was the most holy thing to Israelites, kept in A POT OF GOLD in the ARK OF THE COVENANT, in the MOST HOLY OF HOLYS.

Psalm 78:24-25 calls MANNA FOOD OF ANGELS, just as MAYAN/INCA PRIESTS from Meso-America called it TEONANACATL FOOD OF THE GODS. Coca and Tobacco Leaves found in Pharaohs tombs suggest it was ancestors of Mayan/Inca Priests who brought MUSHROOMS to Egypt. MANNA is an Egyptian word, not Hebrew or Aramaic, meaning;

The BREAD OF GOD. This is what Moses called it in Exodus 16:15.

BREAD OF GOD, equals; FOOD OF GOD, equals; TEONANACATL

John 2:6-9 indicates that Jesus made water into wine by boiling mushrooms (Mushroom-Tea), the waterpots were made of stone, not clay, (stone pots were used for cooking, clay pots used for storing water). These pots already contained 2-3 firkins of a substance before the pots were filled with water.

A "Firkin" is an Old-English measurement meaning a fourth part. Half to three-quarters of fresh mushrooms with water makes a potent tea. Tea is the safest way to consume field mushrooms, killing dangerous bacteria like E. Coli. In the Atharva Veda, the Hindus called this Tea SOMA. Greeks called mushroom jelly AMBROSIA.

"MANA" is an Egyptian word, not Hebrew or Aramaic, Meaning; "The Bread of God". Moses, Christ, and Joseph [The favorite son of Israel], were all educated in Egypt. Solomon married Pharaoh's daughter, and Abraham found his God at a place called Shechem (Sekhem), which is another Egyptian word for Manna. Teonanacatl [Maya] = Soma [Hindu] = Ambrosia / Broma-Theon [Greek] = Manna [Egyptian/Hindu] It can be no coincidence that the Mayan, Egyptian, Greek, Hindu, and Israelite words for the mushroom all mean exactly the same thing: "The Bread Of God"

Manna was round, was found on the ground in the dew, would melt to mush if not dried or collected on time, and would breed larvae. All unique characteristics of mushrooms. When dried it was like “wafers of bread” and it’s color was like “coriander seed”, the consistency and color of dried mushrooms, as described in Exodus Ch. 16.

Other psychedelics used in the Bible include, of course, Cannabis, Mandrake and others. This book focuses on Mushrooms as "The Global Sacrament" but most specifically to the Israelites.

Be advised that the author does not advocate the non-ritual use of mushrooms or in any way place their importance above that of love, "Seek first the kingdom of love and all other things shall be added to you" [Christ].

To make an intoxicating wine from water all one needs to do is to boil Magic-Mushrooms, as Psilocybin and Psilocin are water-soluble.

It is clear that Christ did not make wine out of water only, as the pots already contained 2-3 firkins each of another substance, before the water was added. -(St. John 2:6-9)

The Bible says that making "New Wine" was the very first miracle that Christ performed. In other words nobody saw Christ perform any miracles until after drinking the "New Wine". (St. John 2:11)-"This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him". (2nd. Miracle - John 4:54). Those who drank it reported that it was the MOST POTENT of intoxicants. The ruler of the feast asked why the most potent beverage was saved until the end of the feast. (St. John 2:10)- "Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now". Usually the strongest drinks are served at the beginning, and the weaker saved till the end for those not yet well-drunken.

I believe it is important to note that the waterpots which held the water were made of STONE. This implies that they were indeed used for boiling water, as waterpots for holding water were made of CLAY in those days. (St. John 2:6-9) "And there were set there 6 waterpots made of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing 2 or 3 firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto them, fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them to the brim. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear to the governor of the feast. And they bare it. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom".

I believe it is also important to note that the waterpots contained 2-3 "Firkins" apiece (of some substance), before they were filled with water.

This book will present evidence to show that they contained 2-3 firkins each of Manna. The Larousse Illustrated Dictionary defines "FIRKINS" as an Old-English word meaning; "A fourth part of, depending on the commodity".

Now pots half to three-quarters full of fresh mushrooms boiled in water makes a POTENT mushroom-tea.

Also it seems clear that the "manner of purification" of water to the Jews was

to BOIL the water -(St. John 2:6).

Luke (5:37)- tells us that "New Wine" will burst old bottles. This is because New Wine is boiled, the hot-tea will indeed BURST old glass, this I can report from experience. "No man putteth New-Wine into old bottles; else the New-Wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish".

The King James Translation of the Bible is the only translation I trust regarding the Manna because later translations were made after the theory of Manna being a mushroom came to be, and could have been altered to cover this up. In King James day it is certain that no-one knew Manna was a mushroom.

The following text is a quote from The King James Translation;

(EXODUS 16:14)- "And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay A SMALL ROUND THING". (16:20-21)- "But some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms and stank: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted". (16:23-24)- "Tomorrow is a day of rest; the Sabbath; bake that which you will bake today; see that it remaineth over till tomorrow: And they laid it up as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm". Clearly Moses knew how to properly dry mushrooms, though the Israelites did not know of mushrooms even for food (Ex. 16:15)-"And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, It is Manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them. This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat".

God then commanded Moses to collect and store some of the Manna for future generations.

(Ex. 16:32-33)- "And Moses said This is the thing which the LORD commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness". "And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of MANNA therein, and lay it up before the Lord, to be kept for your generations".

This verse makes clear that great care was taken to preserve Manna so that it would never be forgotten, and so that future generations could identify it, and possibly also, so that if they traveled through lands where Manna was not found they would have a supply both of mushrooms and of spores to seed new lands.

(Heb. 9:3-4)- "And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; Which had the golden censer, and the ARK-OF-THE-COVENANT overlaid roundabout with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had MANNA". It was there that the Babylonians found it and upon it's consumption they all had "VISIONS WITHIN THE HOUR" -(Dan. 5:3-5).

"Manna" is an Egyptian word, not Hebrew or Aramaic, meaning; "The Bread of God". This is what Moses called it (Ex. 16:15).

Bread of God = Food of God

Teonanacatl = Soma = Ambrosia = Manna

Bread Of God = "Spiritual Food"

It can be no coincidence that the Mayan, Hindu, Egyptian, Greek, and Israelite words for the mushroom all mean exactly the same thing. In Hindu "Mana" means mushroom.

Psilocybe began as a sub-genus of the Stropharia family of mushrooms, the Psilocybe genus being created in the 1950's by mycologists like Roger Heim (author of "Les Champignons Hallucinogeniques") in order to distinguish those mushrooms (such as Stropharia Cubensis) containing Psilocybin from other Stropharia class mushrooms. Be that as it may there are still Psilocybin containing mushrooms which remain outside of the Stropharia/Psilocybe families due their spore color and other features that do not fit into this class of mushroom.

Another interesting fact about mushrooms is crossbreeding, mushroom spores of one specie (and genus) may land in the mycelium of another specie (and genus) and fertilize and fruit there, sometimes creating new hybrid-species. This is why people are warned not to collect Amanita Muscaria when it is growing close to A. Pantherina, as it tends to absorb some of the deadly toxins when in close proximity.

This crossbreeding phenomena should already be evident to anyone who has ever cultivated mushrooms using Agar as a mycelium base. The Agar is a fungal-seaweed (Alga) of a completely different specie and genus, which is grown on grain in jars to create a mycelium base for the spores of the desired specie to grow upon. The fact is that an already compatible fungal base (of mycelium) makes crossbreeding possible and speeds up the whole process of mushroom production. Another fact about mushrooms that should not be overlooked when considering the Biblical Manna as a mushroom specie is that, not only do mushroom species and families interbreed, but they are always in a continual state of flux, meaning mutation or evolution. This cannot be overlooked because the evolutionary pace of fungi is very fast. Species appear today which only 60 years ago were unknown, and not because they were simply undocumented but more likely because they did not exist at that time. Psilocybe Baeocystis is a good candidate having only been documented in the late 70's and very likely a result of the Northwest lumber industry as it likes to grow on wood-chips. Wood mulch has recently become popular in gardens and even around freeway ramps. So you see my point here is that very possibly the specie of mushroom collected by the Israelites in the wilderness of Sin probably no longer exists, having since been replaced by more contemporary species by a very fast pace of myco-evolution.

Mushrooms are the only "saucer-shaped" sacrament/entheogen in the world. Fungi are the only plants which have a molecular structure which is half vegetable [aspects] and half animal [aspects], thereby existing in a kingdom of their own. Mushrooms use a genetic code to form a molecular structure which grows away from gravity rather than towards light. This "Anti-Gravity" technology is the same [thrust] force said to power flying saucers, which have the ability to "assume" velocity without acceleration, "jumping" from one point in space/time to another much as electrons or other electric particles do.

Mushroom spores [also saucer-shaped] can travel through space for several hundred thousand years undamaged by solar radiation, remaining fertile, and may be the spawn of new life on new worlds. Mushroom Clouds are the result of an atomic blast. After such a blast, or similar asteroid impact, fertile spores can drift up and down through planetary atmospheres, seeding new-life throughout the universe.
