Praised: Articulates transcendent experiences vividly
vs: Compared with the Pauline epistles
"Let's say when you read Terence McKenna, right? I would consider a lot of his writing to be mystical. He had transcendent experiences and he articulated them in a way that if you've ever done DMT, it can almost bring you back to that state."
