GLOCKNER, Julio. Aquí, allá y en todas partes: trascendencia e inmanencia en el uso de enteógenos. Cuicuilco [online]. 2012, vol.19, n.53, pp.283-300. ISSN 0185-1659.

The discovery of Xochipilli's sculpture in Tlalmanalco and the meeting of Gordon Wasson with Maria Sabina in Huautla de Jimenez in the mid-twentieth century reveal us the millenary ritual history of a gender of psychoactive fungi classified as Psilocybe by the modern ethnobotany. From the diffusion in the mass media of Wasson and his family's experience, two social phenomena began to develop: on one hand, the massive consumption of this entheogen by young people traveling to the Sierra Mazateca compelled by simple curiosity or in search of a mystical experience; and by the other hand, the ingestion by some researchers, writers and intellectuals for different purposes, scientific or philosophical, who have communicated this experience trough their work. The article approaches to some of the most relevant aspects of the ritual as an experience of the transcendent and, at the same time, tries to establish some differences and analogies with the experimental practice as an experience of the immanent.
