Glad you found it valuable. I certainly did. I still need to read "A Brief Tour of Higher Consciousness". I'm
sure it's phenomenal. Please let me know how you like it.

Bentov also wrote an appendix for Dr. Lee Sannella M.D.'s book "Kundalini: Psychosis or Transcendence". Much
like Bentov's "Stalking the Wild Pendulum", it is worth acquiring just to read Bentov's appendix contribution,
but the whole book is worth a read too.

Likewise, the now declassified Gateway Experience documents cite Bentov more often than they cite Robert Monroe
which, given the subject covered and given the status of the Monroe Institute as the premiere center for the
study of this subject, is significant.

I started my ongoing research bender looking into the meaning of the name I was given by a 90+ year old Native
American Medicine Man in an unsought, remote encounter. From there, my research shifted to understanding what
kundalini awakenings were. This is what led me to Bentov & Sannella. Kundalini has been a core subject of focus
for me for the last 38 months. I've taken a few slight detours chasing other topics but they all connect in some
way.

This research has allowed me to penetrate numerous occult blinds and, in doing so, establish a lengthy apologia
for perennialism. In that research, I've found the legitimate science and origin of the baptism ritual, the
teleology of the ergot laced kukeon consumed at Eleusis, and more.

This has been the single most fascinating thread I've ever unraveled in my life.
