BIG difference between working with psychedelics and working with narcotics. Apples and oranges (or mushrooms and poppies, if you will). One expands the mind and unites the consicous with unconscious, the other contracts awareness and isolates the consciousness. This isn't to say that there is no ritual use for morphine, but the realities involved in applying it to ritual are entirely different. I'd note, however, that Crowley was addicted to heroin for a good portion of his career. While a moderated heroin habit is again different than a medicinal morphine sulfate habit, it does suggest that some ritual activity is possible. Probably not the goetic and enochian work that the subject had been involved in, at least not in the form he was doing it while off the drugs. 93 93/93 Phil ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Pan's Tarot - http://members.aol.com/panstarot/ Phil's Magick Page -- http://members.aol.com/pstuart/
