Certainly the central Platonic idea, which is the idea of the ideas, these archetypal forms which stand outside of time is one which is confirmed by the psychedelic experience.

Apparently, in the Avesta classical period no one would have dreamed of having a spiritual experience without resort to drugs.

But a mature humanity could get into a place where we no longer required these metaphysical spankings from messiahs and flying saucers that come along every thousand years or so to mess up the mess that has been created and try and send people off on another tack. And the way to do this is to look at the abysses that confront man as species and individuals and try to unify them. And I think that psilocybin offers a way out because it allows a dialogue with the over-mind. You won't read about it in "Scientific American" or anywhere else. You will carry it out.

There is nobody who is so enlightened that they don't need to work on themselves.

What history is, essentially, is a careening, out-of-control effort to find our way back to this state of primordial balance.

Nobody is smarter than you are. And what if they are? What good is their understanding doing you?

What the psychedelic experience really is, is opening the doorway into a lost continent of the human mind, a continent that we have almost lost all connection to, and the nature of this lost world of the human mind is that it is a Gaian entelechy.
