Sacred Skull of Jerry Garcia

Forums:

A mighty relic that only comes out at this time of year.

Happy Trips, Captain Halloween!

Or should I say, Mister Werewolf!

Hooooowl!

 

 

Skull ???

C'mon now Roar, you totally seem the type who'd travel to bathe in the Ganges.

How many of you other fuckin zoner lulus made the trek ? 

I have stood on the banks of the Suwannee River at midnight silly from cybin.

Alas, no skulls.

Stood on the banks of the Ganges and even went out on a boat, but you would have to be crazy to stick even a toe in that water. That didn't stop many from bathing in it. Hopefully all the magic men and women in the sky kept them safe. 

Glad to read this is an annual ritual (cool) and not Jerry's actual skull going up for auction at Sotheby's.

In mid70s,ish/.. we tripped out at the lake 

We all saw a bright meteorite 

Bid Ed said the pope died

Seems like I remember laughter 

Maybe not

JohnPaul 1 died

He wasn't pope long.

Bathing in the cold pure headwaters of the Ganges perhaps.

I recommend a film, "David Wants to Fly" which investigates David Lynch and Transcendental Meditation. Includes cameos by Paul, Ringo and Donovan!

In one sequence the questing film maker travels to the headwaters of the Ganges where he gets stoned with some "holy men" and takes a bath in the icy stream.

The Sacred Skull of Jerry Garcia being a symbolic metaphor, or actually just a fun macabre trope for Halloween. Astute zoners already get this. He liked monster movies, by his own account. Jerry's actual skull, of course, must have been reduced to ash in cremation with the rest of his body. I recall reading that Bob Weir scattered some of the ashes in the Ganges. That seemed weird ~ the idea of Jerry being Hindu. Ashes are not that important. They scatter to the four winds.

 

C'mon you history buffs, the Sacred Skull has always been in the possession of King Richard.
