Quimbanda is an Afro-Brazilian religion practiced primarily in the urban city centers of Brazil. The religion borrowed many aspects of other traditions, especially Umbanda and Candomblé. Quimbanda's practices are often focused on worldly success regarding money and sex. The religion shares much of the philosophy of LaVeyan Satanism, although it is more focused on the invocation of spirits.

-'''''[[The Holy Mountain]]''''' is a 1973 Mexican surrealist film directed, written, produced, co-scored, co-edited by and starring Alejandro Jodorowsky, who also participated as a set designer and costume designer on the film. The film is based on ''Ascent of Mount Carmel'' by John of the Cross and ''[[Mount Analogue]]'' by René Daumal. In this film, much of Jodorowsky's visually psychedelic story follows the metaphysical thrust of ''Mount Analogue''. This is revealed in such events as the climb to the [[alchemy|alchemist]], the assembly of individuals with specific skills, the discovery of the mountain that unites [[Heaven]] and [[Earth]] "that cannot not exist," and symbolic challenges along the mountain ascent.
