Experientially there is only one religion, and it is shamanism and shamanic ecstasy.

No one knows enough to worry.

Within the context of the alchemical vocabulary, the psychedelic experience, as brought to us through plants long in the possession of Aboriginal people, appears to be the identical phenomena.

What happens with DMT is you leap over all the barriers in the first few seconds. Unlike mushrooms where over hours and hours on a high dose you might navigate yourself to the center of the mandala, DMT is like being struck by metaphysical lightening.

You could almost describe psychedelics as enzymes for the activity of the imagination.

Psychedelic experiences and dreams are chemical cousins; they are only different in degree.

LSD is different. LSD is like psychoanalytical Drano. It's not a personality.
