It is the shaman's super-consciousness impacting directly upon the consciousness of the shaman's client, the seeker of truth who comes to drink the brew.

Quantum effects may also help to explain our consciousness and spiritual (paranormal) abilities. Quantum effects also lead to some very strange phenomena which seem impossible at first glance. I use the experiential knowledge from my prophecies and the research I’ve done on the paranormal to show potential links to quantum effects.
