This is Part 1 of my 2nd interview with Paul Diamond from Tantraya.    In this interview, we talk about Paul's history with regards to the spiritual, esoteric path and as well as his experience with the medicine. We talk about what can be done in the visionary space. We discuss different spiritual traditions and how to assess the nuggets of gold in those traditions while eliminating dogma. Finally, we talk about the role of the shaman in ceremony.
