Eschaton comes from the Greek word 'echatos', which just means the end.

Closure is a neurotic and infantile demand to make upon reality, other people, or language.

For me, what all these years of psychedelic taking came to was a new model of how reality works, a new model of what the world is.

We are reaping the fruits of ten thousand, fifty thousand years of sowing of the fields of mind. And it is being dropped into our laps for us to create human-machine interfacing, control of genetic material, redefinition of social reality, re engineering of languages, revisioning of the planetary ecology, all these things fall upon us.

What is happening, I think, it's really bigger than psychedelics, it's bigger than human evolution. We are not making the waves in this ocean. We are corks, riding the waves of the ocean. But we are privileged, by perhaps chance alone, to occupy a unique moment in the history of the universe. A moment when the universe goes through some kind of self-transforming, evolutionary, inflationary expansion. That's what's happening.

The history of man that you don't know is what your unconscious is made out of. Just as the history of yourself that you don't know is what your personal unconscious is made out of.

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