Cannabis in Spiritual Practice by Will Johnson

            Part one deals with calm mind of the Buddha and part two is about the ecstatic body of Shiva. And this is the focus of the book. If looking for a book that has more of a focus of cannabis in your practice, the title can be a little deceiving. But can be understandable when cannabis is not a fully legal, or at all drug in a number of areas. There is a list of audio tracks and reading suggestions at the end of the book. The intention of the book, stated more or less, not to encourage or promote the use if it in spiritual work but nether to deny from it being a support or catalyst for some. There is breathing and connect with Buddha teachings/practice. Does talk about the five precepts and goes into them. The first part is short, more of an introduction. Part two is the longer section and deals with Shiva. There is meditations in both parts. More of a Buddist/Shiva practice than one of cannabis use/integration in spiritual use. There is small mentions of it though throughout.
