An exploration of the use of cannabis as a sacrament in spiritual practice • Provides instructions for using marijuana for the spiritual practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance, sitting meditation, and gazing meditation, allowing you to open the body’s energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your higher self • Includes a new translation of the Five Moral Precepts of Buddhism, adapted to include energetic practices and the judicious use of entheogenic substances as a legitimate support for spiritual growth • Includes access to 9 audio meditations With the end of marijuana prohibition on the horizon, people are now openly seeking a spiritual path that embraces the benefits of cannabis. Drawing upon his decades of experience as a teacher of Buddhism, breathing, yoga, and embodied spirituality, Will Johnson examines Eastern spiritual perspectives on marijuana and offers specific guidelines and exercises for integrating cannabis into spiritual practice. The author explains how the great Hindu god Shiva enjoyed consuming bhang, a marijuana mixture that would cause his body to make spontaneous movements. From these cannabis-inspired movements, Shiva brought the body-focused practices of dance and yoga to the world. Examining the spiritual path of Shiva, including the Sadhu tradition, Johnson provides specific instructions and protocols for using marijuana as a sacrament as Shiva did. He explores how to embrace cannabis for the practices of spontaneous movement, ecstatic dance, sitting meditation, and gazing meditation. He reveals how the ecstatic surrender to the feeling energies of the body in these practices is enhanced through the ingestion of Shiva’s herb, allowing you to open the body’s energies more fully and get closer to the Divine or your higher self. Exploring the Buddhist practices of calming the mind and grounding yourself in sensory awareness, Johnson shows that, while traditional Buddhist teachings forbid the use of intoxicating substances, Buddhists who use cannabis are not committing a cardinal sin--in following our dharma, we must embrace what best supports our spiritual practice. He concludes with a new translation of the Five Moral Precepts of Buddhism--what he calls the Five Precepts of Embodied Responsibility--adapted to include energetic practices using breath, interaction with the energies of nature, sacred sex, and the judicious use of entheogenic substances, such as cannabis, as legitimate support for spiritual growth.

An in-depth guide to blending the practice of yoga with cannabis • Examines the physical, mental, spiritual, and energetic effects of cannabis and yoga, including their effects on the nervous system and chakras • Explains how yoga practice offers a way to tune the human nervous system and how, through the endocannabinoid system, cannabis harmonizes a multitude of functions, from respiration to pain control, in ways that enhance yoga • Offers an illustrated sequence of cannabis-yoga asanas (postures) developed to awaken kundalini, open energy channels, accelerate healing, and unlock access to unbounded states of consciousness In India, both yoga and cannabis are considered gifts from the Hindu god Shiva. They are seen as twin currents of wisdom and enlightenment, allies for healing and consciousness expansion. As ethnobotanist and yogi Chris Kilham explains, when wisely and thoughtfully combined, cannabis and yoga offer profound benefits for body, mind, and spirit. Kilham examines the history and lore of both cannabis and yoga, with a special focus on the role of cannabis in Indian and Himalayan yoga traditions where it has been used for thousands of years. He investigates cannabis and yoga’s effects on the chakras and energy body and how they assist in opening energy channels and awakening kundalini energy. He explains how yoga practice offers a way to tune the human nervous system and how, through the endocannabinoid system, cannabis harmonizes a multitude of functions, from respiration to pain control, in ways that enhance yoga. He looks at the effects of both THC and CBD as well as the different methods of consuming cannabis, with advice on selecting the right method for your yoga practice. In addition to instructions for breathwork and cannabis meditation practices, Kilham offers an illustrated guide to his own system of cannabis yoga, a sequence of asanas (postures) developed to arouse the kundalini, open up energy channels throughout your body, and unlock access to unbounded states of consciousness. Sharing his experiences combining yoga and cannabis around the world, the author shows that the fusion of cannabis and yoga dissolves the boundaries of the mind, accelerates healing, and imparts a greater understanding of the intrinsic unity of all things.

This work is being presented in three parts. Although each section stands alone, yet they are all inextricably intertwined. The intention of the author is to furnish those for whom Marijuana is The Perennial Teacher with a decipherable experience of spiritual fulfillment as it is implemented in The Marijuana Consciousness. The Yoga of Marijuana gives the basic philosophical and historical underpinnings of The Science of Yoga, including the intentionally hidden, ancient and originating connection to The Marijuana Consciousness. The reason that the obvious synchronicity between these two paths has always been denied by the establishment will be explained as well as how and why the primordial Practice of Marijuana as an esoteric discipline is re-emerging with such power at this moment in time in this materialistic period of civilization. The book explains the enhancement toward the uncovering of consciousness that is not only a possibility through the Yoga of Marijuana but is, in fact, an ongoing, although little known, abiding reality. In addition, the work will clarify how Marijuana serves as proactive and perennial guide on the Path to Enlightenment as reflected in and precedent to Classical Yoga as it comes down to us from the primordial and secret Tantra. It is the aim of this introductory section to spark the interest of those for whom the Marijuana Consciousness is of utmost importance and to prepare the way for recognition and reception of The Yoga of Marijuana. Part II, The Tantra of Marijuana will present the origin and profound philosophy of the utterly misunderstood Tantric Path as it evolved from the primeval purity of the aboriginal mind. While the comprehensive tolerance and refined practices of Eastern Thought are progressive, profound and far reaching, Tantra is unquestionably the crowning pinnacle of its legacy. Interestingly enough, this prehistoric teaching is considered the most suitable Path to Enlightenment for the distracted mind of the present era, while Shiva, Lord of Bhang fits into the mix as the symbol of conscious pulsation of the universe, in keeping with the most advanced contemporary science. Part III, Marijuana and Yoga Practice will reveal the integration of the specific Yogic training with the underlying principle behind each practice for health and heightened awareness, mirrored in and originating from the subtle Benefits of Marijuana. The hope is for the three sequential parts to coalesce over time in both the cognitive and intuitional faculties and be internalized holographically as a unified reality
