Hilary Kolodziej- Outside reading 5

The final article I read for my final paper was entitled "On the Peyote Road." In this article, Mike Kiyanni and Thomas J. Cordas show the connection between religion and drugs. The Navajo get divine inspiration through the use of peyote. The drug also has healing effects and use it t worship nature and their God. The article also suggests that without the use peyote, the Navajo wouldn't be able to experience their religion or nature in such an intense way.
