<div>Hi Everyone- <br/>Just finished reading It's in the Rhythm by Sammie Ward. She submitted the book to add to our online store. We don't put books in our store unless someone from our company has read it. It was my turn and what a great story! I'm not a huge fan of romance novels but this one is good. Lots of intrigue and triangles! This particular story is about an R&amp;B singer who falls in love...but, of course, with someone he cannot have! <br/> <br/>Sammie has an easy writing style! I really enjoyed the book and look forward to her next one. (She may even submit one to us for publication). She has currently been self-publishing. <br/> <br/>If you get a chance, check it out for some good, light reading. <br/> <br/>Marie <br/>www.leruepress.com</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/leruepressreno">LeRue Press Reno</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>Hell-Low from Heaven-High: I am author/publisher of MANNA the book documenting the Biblical use of Magic-Mushrooms. I hope I can find some friends here who share my interest. <br/> <br/>Manna is the food-from-heaven provided by God to Israelites in the wilderness, according to the Bible the Israelites are said to have eaten Manna <br/>My book Manna explores the evidence that Christ was the leader of a Pagan Cult teaching a renaissance of an ancient Egypt Mysticism kept secret by an elite caste of priests within the Jewish Rabbis until such a time as Christ came and taught it to the masses, resulting in accusations of blasphemy and the crucifixion of the first Christians. <br/> <br/>Exodus 16:14-24 indicates that Manna was inevitably a mushroom. <br/>It was a small round thing in the morning dew, it bred larva, and would melt to mush if not dried. King James Version. <br/>All “wild” mushroom pickers know that mushrooms are most notorious for being infested with worms. This is because flies worldwide of all varieties lay their eggs up into the gills, which then hatch causing the larvae/worms to crawl out as the mushroom matures. <br/> <br/>Daniel 5:3-5 with Exodus 16:32 and Hebrews 9:4 <br/>indicates that the mushroom was a drug. After sacking the temple in Jerusalem and stealing the Ark-of-the-Covenant, the King of Babylon and his table drank from the golden cup containing the holy “Manna” they had visions within the hour. Psilocybin mushrooms take 30-40 minutes to induce visions. <br/> <br/>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. So sacred is the Manna that only the High Priest has access to it, and only on one day of the year Yom Kippur, which comes 3 days before the harvest moon AllHallowsEve. <br/> <br/>Psalm 78:24-25 calls Manna Food Of Angels, just as Mayan/Inca Priests from Meso-America called it Teonanacatl Food Of The Gods. <br/>Manna is an Egyptian word, not Hebrew or Aramaic, meaning; <br/>The Bread of God. This is what Moses called it in Exodus 16:15. <br/>“Bread Of God” means Food-Of-God, which is the same meaning of Teonanacatl (Mayan), and Ambrosia Greek, and Soma Hindu a word for mushroom tea, all these words mean “Spiritual Food”. <br/>Coca and Tobacco Leaves found in Pharaohs tombs suggest it was ancestors of Mayan/Inca Priests who brought mushrooms to Egypt. <br/> <br/>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. <br/>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. <br/>Those who drank the water made into wine said it was the most potent intoxicant St. John 2:10. The Bible tells us that Jesus making water into wine was the “beginning of miracles” … in other words no one saw any miracles until drinking the wine made from water. St. John 2:11. <br/> <br/>Certainly for the Israelites Egypt was the origin of Manna, which explains why all the Patriarchs of Israel were educated in Egypt, 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, which is another Egyptian word for Manna. <br/>Teonanacatl [Maya] <br/>Soma [Hindu] <br/>Ambrosia or Broma-Theon [Greek] <br/>Manna [Egyptian, Israelite] <br/>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. <br/> <br/>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. <br/> <br/>© The Preceding text is an excerpt from my book MANNA. <br/>Copyright: Sacred WinePress: All rights reserved, no part of this text may be reproduced, stored in a database or other retrieval system, or transmitted in any form by any means, including mechanical, electronic, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the written permission of the publisher. <br/> <br/> <br/>THE TASTE OF PSILOCYBIN <br/> <br/> <br/>This same passage speaks of Manna as tasting like honey. <br/>(Ex 16:31)- “And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna; and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey” -(Ex 16:31). In Palanque Mexico where Psilocybe Cubensis grows year round in pastures that surround the pyramids I learned that honey is an age old way of preserving mushrooms, by immersing them in the honey, the water-soluble psilocybin then leaches into the honey as it is heated at a low temperature over several days, the mushrooms can then be strained out, making “Blue-Honey” which explains not only why Manna was said to taste of honey, but also explains the sweet tasting jelly-like elixir of the Greeks called “Ambrosia”. <br/> <br/>Later in Numbers 11:6-9 we are told that Manna tasted of fresh oil, which is perhaps a better description of the taste of “fresh” mushrooms not preserved in honey or by drying. We are also told that Manna was baked into cakes, which is another means of preserving mushrooms so they won’t spoil, and also a safety measure ensuring that dangerous E. Coli (and other germs from dung) bacteria are killed off, just as with boiling the mushrooms to make mushroom tea. Also another reason for making a powder out of mushrooms is that after making mushroom tea and straining the tea from the mushrooms there is a blackish residue of boiled mushrooms leftover, this residue is very weak due to most of the Psilocybin and Psilocin having been extracted into the water, but there is still some psychoactive content left. Because Manna is a holy sacrament it stands to reason that none should be wasted, and that any residue should then be dried out, pulverized into powder, and then baked into cakes for future use. <br/> <br/> <br/>The Preceding text is an excerpt from my book MANNA. <br/>Copyright: Sacred WinePress: All rights reserved, no part of this text may be reproduced, stored in a database or other retrieval system, or transmitted in any form by any means, including mechanical, electronic, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the written permission of the publisher. <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/></div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/leruepressreno">LeRue Press Reno</a> - 1 reply </div>
