I don't believe that shamanism without hallucinogens is authentic shamanism or comfortable shamanism.

And psychedelics now, as we de-condition ourselves from the post-medieval world, they are present to hand as tools.

History is the in-rushing toward what the Buddhists call the realm of the densely packed, a transformational realm where the opposites are unified.

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.

I'm not an advocate of drugs. I'm an advocate of psychedelics.

The surface of things is not where attention should rest.

I don't believe that shamanism without hallucinogens is authentic shamanism or comfortable shamanism.
