No, no, not bloody marys - FABULOUS Marys - same recipe, better name. (As Molly is a proper Irish nickname for Mary, I speak from experience.)
The large leaps in logic of the presentation did make me wonder at the maturity level of the author. He started with the bit of the reality of the body being "illusion" and I do not agree with that at all, being more of the mind that all aspects of being require integration. In fact, I think that feeling with the body is really a key component in the awakened imagination, so never really subscribed to the "illusion" thing. One thing I liked very much that the author presented briefly was the idea of "innate." Our innate wisdom is the premise that modern chiropractic was founded on. D D Palmer based his whole philosophy of Chiropractic on this notion of innate, and it is taught in the Palmer schools to this day. Our body's innate wisdom is also the basic tenet of Kinesiology. The author did a pretty good job of placing this idea in the right place of his presentation.
