Angels

The basic meaning of angel is messenger.
If you read spiritual texts it seems very plausible that angels are really entheogenic plants.
Also, in that Ancient Aliens/Astronauts show, whenever they try to compare spiritual events to alien event it seems most like psychedelic drug induced events to me.
In the first time angels where described, they were not peaceful, but instead beings who wanted to "take over", but after that the angels became messengers of god.
Sounds a lot like the scary come up on a psychedelic drug, when you are fighting for power of your mind, until you give up to the experience and receive the message.
Discuss!

I wouldn't be so quick to rule out the possibility of the existence of Etheric beings that have been given various titles.
They exist.

yea they are real
mushroom spirits have definitely manifested into an online video game to me once, and gave me a message. (i was sober at the time-- havent touched mushrooms in like a year)
it was a horrifying experience at first LOL
i think its a very personal thang, and not sure about elaborating on the story since they come as lessons, and aren't thangs u go shoutin' about. 
i'm sure there ar eplentry of messages to be told cuz i forgot the message they sed to me. but ir emember it came as a gift.that gift was a golden circular thang.
they also like justice and thangs
maybe i'll remmeber when im not too much on thangs
but im on too much dr00gz to know what im doin' right now , so

Do you mean the first time they were described in the Bible?(Genesis 6) Cause I didn't see anything about them taking over, just some divine fucking
But seriously though, even if entheogenic plants are angels (Fun fact: Ganja is a Goddess in Hinduism), I dont think they are limited to these plants/drugs. It's like you said, the Hebrew word for angel (malik) translates literally to messanger, so imo angels can get their message to us through entheogens, psychedelics, spiritual books, visions, dreams, or even that guy you met at the bar. I guess i'm just sayin that even if entheogens are angels, I don't think angels are limited to entheogens.
Hope that made sense

i think this 'etheric' thang is the spirit within the plant, not the plant itself
and if u associate urself with a certain plant and ingest them thangs, and really get connected with them thangs. then thangs will be doin
like all thangs have spirits, and they all do their thangs

Rather than within the plant I feel that there is literally a 'door of perception' that these molecular keys open. The psyche is structured to keep material organized and has been separated from the chaos of the spiritual realm or subconscious or the collective unconsciousness. However, it exists within you NOW. As if we are born of it. These beings populate the human collective imagination and they are just beyond a fragile boundary within your own experience.

I've never understand why "spiritual" people feel like there is a "collective consciousness", "collective imagination", "collective karma", etc.; why are these kinds of people so obsessed with shit being collective?

Its really not that difficult to grasp the concept...
I fear the psychic separatism that modern culture depends on and people have come to know as 'normal' is a dangerous hoax and mostly illusory.
We are connected. And we share.
Obsessed??

"spiritual people" aren't the only ones that use the term.
http://csmt.uchicago.edu/glossary2004/collectiveconsciousness.htm
and I agree FishOil. I think the plants themselves are even manifestations of the mind, and that all these angels etc. are just archetypes in our mind, it's all inside of us.
That doesn't mean they aren't real. After all, what is 'real' anyway?

I know, it's a fairly easy concept to come up with and understand, like Jesus's resurrection.
It's hilarious how spiritual people say "you just can't grasp the concept" when people disagree with what they're saying.

It's not just about modern culture, it's about how humans perceive their reality; some people like to imagine that there's some sort of inexplicable psychic connection between all people, and others do not imagine this.

Unequivocally.

Quote:
The term collective consciousness refers to the condition of the subject within the whole of society, and how any given individual comes to view herself as a part of any given group. The term has specifically been used by social theorists/psychoanalysts like Durkheim, Althusser, and Jung to explicate how an autonomous individual comes to identify with a larger group/structure.
They're not using the term in a spiritual way, or in any way suggesting that we're all connected "spiritually".

I know that. Sometimes words have two meanings.. I'm just saying that "spiritual people" aren't the only ones 'obsessed' with things being 'collective' as you have suggested.

Yes they are; psychologists who use the term have evidence to vouch for it, spiritual people do not. Since they do not have evidence, and come up with all kinds of "collective" phenomenon regardless, they are obsessed.

It doesn't have to be used in any particular way.
But, with topics like these there is usually a more mystically inspired interpretation to better address the territory.

Quote:
For Jung, “My thesis then, is as follows: in addition to our immediate consciousness, which is of a thoroughly personal nature and which we believe to be the only empirical psyche (even if we tack on the personal unconscious as an appendix), there exists a second psychic system of a collective, universal, and impersonal nature which is identical in all individuals. This collective unconscious does not develop individually but is inherited. It consists of pre-existent forms, the archetypes, which can only become conscious secondarily and which give definite form to certain psychic contents.” -wiki

I have a pretty big imagination, and this concept is not hard to imagine, so I don't need any hints, thank you.
