The Green Soul Speaks: Cannabis as Humanity’s Forgotten Teacher

Long before it became the subject of legal battles and medical debates, cannabis was revered—not as a commodity but as a companion. In The Sovereignty of Cannabis by Bingus, this ancient truth is not just remembered—it’s revived. Bingus leads us through time and across continents, uncovering how countless cultures once honored the cannabis plant as a guide, a sacred ally, and a teacher of the spirit.

The Green Soul in Ritual and Revelation

In early human civilizations, cannabis was more than fiber or medicine—it was woven into spiritual ceremony. Bingus reminds us how the Scythians bathed in hemp smoke during funeral rites, how the Indian sadhus consumed bhang to deepen their meditation, and how Taoist mystics used the plant to connect with higher dimensions.

To these cultures, cannabis wasn’t recreational. It was relational. It unlocked inner sanctuaries, making it possible to meet the self—and the divine—in stillness and clarity.

A Teacher in the Shadows

Modern society, as Bingus laments, lost its way. With colonization came suppression—of both indigenous wisdom and the sacred plants they revered. Cannabis was demonized and dismissed as a disruptor rather than a healer. Yet even in exile, it remained what it always was: a teacher waiting patiently in the shadows.

The Sovereignty of Cannabis by Bingus challenges us to rethink this narrative. By reconnecting with cannabis as a spiritual tool, we don’t just reclaim lost traditions—we reclaim parts of ourselves.

Listening to the Leaves

In one of the most poignant passages, Bingus describes a personal experience of communing with cannabis—not through ingestion alone, but through intention. Sitting in quietude, breathing with the plant, he describes a feeling of being held by something ancient, something alive. That’s what the ancients knew, and modern readers can rediscover: cannabis does not shout—it whispers. And when we learn to listen, the lessons are profound.

 

The Modern Seeker’s Dilemma

Today’s spiritual seekers often turn to meditation apps, retreats, or imported philosophies—rarely realizing that wisdom might already be growing nearby. Bingus asks, what if your guide doesn’t wear robes or speak Sanskrit but grows wild and green under the sun?

In Bingus's The Sovereignty of Cannabis, readers are invited to shift their relationship with the plant from consumer to student, from user to listener. The transformation is not chemical—it is consciousness.

Returning to Sacred Relationship

Bingus is not advocating blind worship of cannabis. His message is grounded: when approached with reverence, cannabis becomes a mirror. It reflects what we want to see and what we need to face. As we heal our relationship with the plant, we begin to heal our relationship with nature, community, and spirit.

The Sovereignty of Cannabis by Bingus reminds us that sovereignty is not about dominion—it’s about harmony. Cannabis, as a sovereign entity, seeks to teach us just that.
