A groundbreaking exploration of how psychedelics and quantum science are vital to understanding the evolution of consciousness and reality *; Explains why altered states of consciousness exist, how they work, and why psychedelics have the effects that they do *; Describes how quantum waves, rather than the DNA molecule, have been the driving force behind biological and historical evolution *; Explains how psychedelics interact with the human mind to create altered states that may further the continued evolution of consciousness In this groundbreaking book, Carl Johan Calleman reveals the quantum science of the Maya, a science lost to the modern world that explains the phenomenology of psychedelics and altered states of consciousness.
