What they [psychedelics] cause is what I'm advocating, a fundamental revaluation of cultural values, because culture as we're practicing it currently is causing a lot of pain to a lot of people, and animals, and ecosystems, none of whom were ever allowed to vote on whether they wanted this process to go in this direction.

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

No one is in charge of this process, this is what makes history so interesting, it's a runaway freight train on a dark and stormy night.

Worrying is betting against yourself.

The Internet is the global brain, the cyberspacially connected, telepathic, collective domain that we've all been hungering for.

My normal lectures deal with the psychedelic experience as a generalized and historical phenomenon, but this effort at communication is slightly more personal in that it's an effort to impart [just] one idea that came out of an involvement with psychedelic substances.

Culture is the greatest barrier to your enlightenment, your education, and your decency.
