I think that a lot of people are making a lot of money spreading anxiety. Anxiety sells.

Our culture takes us out of the body and sells our loyalty into political systems, into religions, into inanimate objects and machines, collections, so forth and so on. The felt experience of the body is what the psychedelics are handing back to us.

It's our machines and our technologies that are now the major evolutionary forces acting upon us. It's not our political systems.

The plants are the pipeline into the Gaian intention. It's just not a coincidence that these plants carry this immense spiritual message. They are the pipeline of Gaian intentionality.

Basically, for me the psychedelic experience was the path to revelation. It actually worked on somebody who thought nothing would work.

The current operating system [culture] is flawed. It actually has bugs in it that generate contradictions. We're cutting the earth from beneath our own feet. We're poisoning the atmosphere that we breathe. This is not intelligent behaviour. This is a culture with a bug in its operating system that's making it produce erratic, dysfunctional, malfunctional behaviour. Time to call a tech! And who are the techs? The shamans are the techs.

And what is the primary datum? It's the felt presence of immediate experience. In other words, being here now is the primary datum.
