I only included the ones I'm familiar with, but the more I look the more I keep finding correlations in almost any ancient or current tradition. One could easily say these are just ways the human experience has explained reality and how it explains what it doesn't understand. And that would make sense, because the story stays the same, but the minor details change to a more modern version over time. Jacques Vallée's theory really resonates with me. In the PDF i included a few similarities of these 2 aspects of reality that I find interesting, but there are countless more. I find spirituality/religion, the esoteric, psychedelics and the phenomenon all interesting.... and somehow seemingly connected. If only because it's all part of our human experience. submitted by /u/Gkannon77 [link] [comments]
