• Deep Dive into the Literature: Explore thought-provoking chapters and imagery from books (like Zig Zag Zen: Buddhism and Psychedelics) and scientific research.
• Sutra Exploration: Compare the profound experiences described in ancient sutras, like The Heart Sutra, with those reported in psychedelic journeys.
