Shireen’s Reviews > The Antipodes of the Mind: Charting the Phenomenology of the Ayahuasca Experience > Status Update

It sounds like most of the book is a build-up to the good stuff in the last two chapters. However, his discussion on the drink's temporal effects at this point in the book is interesting, given the research I did for my book Time and Space and some of what physicists say about time.

Crawling along through this. Talking about consciousness, which has perked up my interest.

We're into consciousness now, finally. But I'm not sure we're into the real meat of the book yet. The problem with ebooks is you can't tell where you are from physical clues nor can you flip easily to see what's coming. A Table of Contents doesn't work as well either as flipping pages. Ah well. I soldier on.

I think I may finally have gotten through the explaining/background stage of this ebook and will soon embark on the good, meaty stuff. I hope.

At this rate, it's going to take all year to read this eBook!

At last. Starting getting into the experience, the interpreting-as, the seeing-in, the veritable hallucination (so many terms made up specifically to try and explain the Ayahuasca experience, I'm not sure remembered them right).

Right from the first sentence of the Prologue, I was hooked. But the author is now getting into heavy background information, so I'm taking a break.
