Occultism and Common-Sense

Beckles Willson

Editorial: DigiCat

Sinopsis

In "Occultism and Common-Sense," Beckles Willson presents a compelling examination of the intersection between occult practices and rational thought within the late 19th-century cultural milieu. Emphasizing clarity and accessibility, Willson employs a distinctive literary style that blends scholarly analysis with vivid illustrations, drawing from a rich tapestry of historical and philosophical sources. The book critically explores the prevailing superstitions of the time, juxtaposing them against an emerging rational discourse, thus illuminating the complexities of human belief systems in a rapidly modernizing world. Beckles Willson, a noted figure in the early occult revival and a clear thinker with a keen interest in the metaphysical implications of contemporary thought, was shaped by the intellectual currents of his time. Living through a period marked by the tension of emerging scientific paradigms and traditional beliefs, Willson's insights are informed by his own experiences within the esoteric communities, allowing him to provide an authentic perspective on the subject matter. His scholarly background further enhances the work's authority and lends it a depth that challenges both skeptics and enthusiasts alike. I highly recommend "Occultism and Common-Sense" to readers interested in the delicate balance between esoteric practices and rational inquiry. This thought-provoking volume not only enchants with its rich historical narrative but also invites readers to reflect on the convergence of belief and reason in their own lives, making it an essential addition to the library of anyone intrigued by spiritual philosophies.

On Drugs - Psychedelics...

Justin Smith-Ruiu

“Like the best psychedelic experiences, On Drugs estranges the familiar, familiarizes the strange, and returns us to reality (whatever that is) with a broadened sense of the possible. Justin Smith-Ruiu is simply one of the most interesting thinkers alive, and he has found an ideal subject for his peculiar brand of brilliance.”—Christopher Beha, author of The Index of Self-Destructive Acts 
  
In the late, post-lockdown days of the pandemic, grappling with personal loss and existential uncertainty, Justin Smith-Ruiu found himself standing in a California cannabis dispensary, pondering a question his tribe of fellow philosophers have often dismissed as too simple: How did I get here? That moment marked a transition for him—it was the start of a journey Smith-Ruiu would take to experience his own mind and the world around him in a new, clarifying way.  
  
On Drugs blends autobiography, intellectual history, and philosophical inquiry to explore the transformative impact of psychedelics on human consciousness and thought. Drawing on his personal experiences as “an articulate guinea pig,” Smith-Ruiu argues that psychedelics upend our assumptions about the nature of reality—and thus force a reckoning with the very foundations of Western philosophy.  
  
Provocative, profound, and deeply personal, On Drugs points toward a radically new way of thinking about the world and our capacity to understand it.
