that pulled us out of the animal body and into the tool-using,
culture-making, imagination-exploring creature that we are.
And why does this matter? It matters because it chose that the
way out is back, and that the future is a forward escape into the past.
This is what the psychedelic experience means. Its a doorway out of
history and into the wiring under the board in eternity. And I tell you
this because if the community understands what it is that holds it
together, the community will be better able to streamline itself for
flight into hyperspace. Because what we need is a new myth. What we need
is a new true story that tells us where were going in the universe. And
that true story is that the ego is a product of pathology and that when
psilocybin is regularly part of the human experience, the ego is
suppressed. And the suppression of the ego means the defeat of the
dominators, the materialists, the product peddlers. Psychedelics return
us to the inner worth of the self, to the importance of feeling immediate
experience. And nobody can sell that to you and nobody can buy it from
you, so the dominator culture is not interested in the felt presence of
immediate experience. But thats what holds the community together. And
as we break out of the silly myths of science and the infantile obsessions
of the marketplace, what we discover through the psychedelic experience is
that in the body-- in the body-- there are Niagara of beauty, alien
beauty, alien dimensions that are part of the self, the richest part of life.
I think of going to the grave without having a psychedelic
experience, like going to the grave without having sex. It means that you
never figured out what it was all about. The mystery is in the body, and
the way the body works itself into nature. What the archaic revival means
is shamanism, ecstasy, orgiastic sexuality, and the defeat of the three
enemies of the people, and the three enemies of the people are pechemony,
monogamy, and monotony. And if you get them on the run, you have the
dominators sweating, folks. Because that means that youre getting it all
reconnected, and get it all reconnected means putting aside the idea of
separateness and self-definition through thing fetish. Getting it all
connected means tapping into the Gaian mind. And the Gaian mind is what
were calling the psychedelic experience. Its an experience of the living
fact of the entelechy of the planet, and without that experience we wander
in a desert of bogus ideologies, but with that experience, the compass of
the self can be set. And thats the idea, that were figuring out how to
reset the compass of the self, through community, through ecstatic dance,
through psychedelics, intelligence-- intelligence... this is what we have
to have to make the forward escape into hyperspace.

Im gonna take five here, and uh, well be back and chat some more.

Hello... so, that was like an introduction, ha ha! Now for some
preaching to the choir on the subject of: How come it is that the further
in you go, the bigger it gets? I remember the very, very first time I
smoked DMT. It was sort of a benchmark, you might say. And I remember
that this friend of mine that always got there first, visited me with this
little glass pipe, and this stuff which looked like orange mothballs. And
since I was a graduate of Dr. Hoffmans, I figured there were no surprises.
