Is it a Dharma book\, is it sci-fi\, is it autobiography?  On March 21st\, 2026\, at the Spring Equinox—the moment of perfect balance between light and dark\,  when new growth becomes inevitable\, when what has been dormant underground breaks through into manifestation – we gather virtually to celebrate the much-anticipated arrival of Psynauts Vol 1: The Source!  Through dramatic readings\, visual media\, and guided experience\, you’ll be initiated into the Psynaut way of seeing—where ordinary reality becomes transparent to deeper truths. This isn’t just a book launch. It’s the activation of a teaching that Elbud spent 30 years preparing to deliver—wisdom refined through thousands of meditation hours\, countless retreats\, and direct transmission from enlightened masters. Qapel chose story because\, as he says in the book\, “Sometimes the ego’s defenses are so strong\, wisdom needs to sneak in through the back door.” On March 21st\, that door opens! \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Sneak Peek!
