The introduction of small amounts of toxin as a healing act is interesting. Metabolizing the toxins in oneself is central to meditation (if meditation arises naturally, unforced, much like K was saying about intentional meditation not being meditation – all about the motive or the way we handle the activity, whether it is truly sacred or not, the way the impulse to Do something can arise spontaneously as an insight of its own, as an action spilling out from surplus interest and joy, rather than from a deficit seeking relief, escape, conclusion or a resolution through intoxication). Very relevant essay, very excellent, thanks.
