My friend Dr. Asher Walden is a former Zen monk who received his BA in Philosophy from the University of Chicago and his PhD in Theology from Drew University. His dissertation was on the moral metaphysics of Schopenhauer and the Neo-Confucian philosopher Zhu Xi. He taught undergraduate philosophy and religions courses for over ten years, and has published scholarly articles and a monograph on comparative religion and philosophy. His desire to understand consciousness has led him to research & write on idealistic philosophy and the ontology of realms encountered during psychedelic experiences. He is currently working in the applied sciences, and has developed a self-guided divination system for use in the integration of psychedelic experiences called the Empyrean Age Integration Deck.
