This use of epithets is similar to that in Hellenism. I can imagine a Neoplatonic / Julian Hellenic ritual installing e.g. the various forms of Zeus in different parts of the body.

Similar stuff in the Skanda Purana. It's also covered by the Padma Purana, but that has 250 chapters and about 3600 pages, so good luck!

Twelve names are: Keśava, Nārāyaṇa, Mādhava, Govinda, Viṣṇu, Madhusūdana, Trivikrama, Vāmana, Śrīdhara, Hṛṣīkeśa, Padmanābha, and Dāmodara.

You could check the tantric sources and - perhaps even Egyptian ones - and find out the corresponding positions. Would be part of a series of workings though. IMO seems quite similar to ideas from Middle Pillar exercise etc.

Mogg Morgan was on a podcast recently talking about Egyptian-Indian shared practices, and IIRC one of those was the practice of "installing" gods into different parts of the body. Religious tattoos fit with that pattern.

Most of my exposure to McKenna was originally through RA Wilson, and yes, years ago. Formational, I suppose.

I just had a good laugh asking ChatGPT what a group combining those three texts would look like, and any possible problems.

I'm not a witch, so I can't play the game, but I'll bite anyway, on the proviso that I'm just choosing the three books likely to result in the most insanity possible, so:

1. The Archaic Revival (McKenna)
2. The Pilot's Self-Clearing Manual (anon, I guess?)
3. Nightside of Eden (Grant)

Or an asthma inhaler.

Female Mr. Benn?

I vaguely remember Mona the Vampire. A bit after my time perhaps. I loved Mr. Benn, it may have encouraged my dilettantism.

Nice to meet you. Glad to run into someone who's heard of it!
