# 2 - Xochipilli - The Rosetta Stone of Psychedelics

We begin our journey with a discovery brought to light by the head of the Harvard Botany Department: Richard Evans Schultes.  It was his deciphering of the Aztec statue of Xochipilli which acted much like the Rosetta Stone of Egypt - cracking the universal symbolic language of the Sacraments.  
Here you can see the two great powers, the Entheogens Psilocybin and the Morning Glory - The Right Handed and the Left Handed Path.

Let's take a look at modern history and see how the Western Cultures were reintroduced to these Sacraments after years of dusty neglect and forgetfulness.


Maria Sabina was a Mazatec “Sabia” or Wise One, she is more famous in Mexico that anyone knows!  It was by this woman that the Psilocybin Mushrooms were re-birth to the consciousness of our modern world.  In short she was the woman describe in the book of Revelation on whose head rests the twelve stars (tribes) of Israel.  Maria practiced a Godly life style using what the Bible calls the  “little things”  to heal the sick and speak prophetically with absolute accuracy.  Here is the Bible’s description of her:
12:1 A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.
12:3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads. 4 His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that he might devour her child the moment it was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron sceptre. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. 6 The woman fled into the desert to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days. –Revelation.


Here is what Maria said about herself followed by a “rational” world view about her (leaving the “which” God/god up to the reader):
"There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known. It is they, the sacred mushrooms, that speak in a way I can understand. I ask them and they answer me. When I return from the trip that I have taken with them, I tell what they have told me and what they have shown me."      -Maria Sabina.
“Thus does the famous Mazatec shaman, Maria Sabina, reverently describe the god given powers of the intoxicating mushrooms that she uses in her ceremony which has come from ages past.
Few plants of the gods have ever been held in greater reverence than the sacred mushrooms of Mexico. So hallowed were these fungi that the Aztecs called them Teonanacatl ("divine flesh") and used them only in the most holy of their ceremonies. Even though, as fungi, mushrooms do not blossom, the Aztecs referred to them as "flowers," and the Indians who still use them in religious rituals have endearing terms for them, such as "little flowers.”” -Anonymous.

To summarize let us look at the symbols again in light of Maria Sabina before we begin our study of the Olmec Culture of Mesoamerica:

In order for you gentle reader to get the most out of this blog we must review what is know about Psilocybin and the other—oh how shall we say angelic names of both the good and some of self conceit.  We will use the discovered and deciphered statue of Xochipilli  - again giving credit to the Harvard Botany Director Richard Evans Schultes and his is book “Plants of the Gods” for revealing the Xochipilli statues various sacraments.  The two which are universal are the Psilocybin mushrooms and the Morning Glory.  They are the two contenders, they and the Spirits behind the symbolic Lion and the Unicorn fighting for the crown...
