Nearly every culture throughout history has used chemicals that alter consciousness for spiritual exploration. In the 20th century these drugs caught the attention …
Yet here we are, psychedelics are still illegal and we are heading towards year 2020. It turns out that psychedelics are good for you, but your loving government won’t let you try it. What?
It's not Ayahuasca tourism that's the problem. It's prohibition. If not for prohibition we could just do Ayahuasca in the United States.
The legal status in the United States of DMT-containing plants is somewhat ambiguous. Ayahuasca plants and preparations are legal, as they contain no scheduled chemicals. However, brews made using DMT containing plants are illegal since DMT is a Schedule I drug.
I joined Drukama it's a mysticism tradition that goes all the way sort to speak. Being able to watch detached from our psychological components isn't the end, please keep going if you manage this. Check out Drukama if it interests you. Be well!
The problem is that dummies in this country ruin it for everyone. The tribes treat it with the respect it deserves. Morons here want to get high and drive to the state fair. And if they survive, they brag about how effed up they were.
What happened in the 60s was not as "bad", even as its contemporary alcohol causes both in health & an idea numbing oneself, not feeling is a better idea. Despite the horrid effects it has on users & non users, was/is quite excepted in society & business. Excluding a sense found in disobeying the state's need for war, this was in fact the biggest concern of leaders driving the narratives (Nixon tapes shows this). The number who reconnected with nature, ecology, their true self, oneness, were great in number & effect despite there were unguided youth that couldn't find a Shamanic context: the Tao of integration a lot was found.
It all was in fact, "therapeutic", in a world lost in it's own exploitation & destruction due to its own lack of self-reflection. The west had long lost the traditions to explore these states with clear intention yet still many did amazingly well.
Leary's – Turn on Tune in…was adapted out by the 70s & no longer his mantra at all, yet this fails to be recorded. It's persons such as Huxley, Ram Dass, Hoffman that knew the value & that show how one could benefit from these experiences. Many people did. Attitudes are still highly uneducated to why these experiences help people whether interpersonal or curing PTSD. Thank Dr Strassman for reopening this research, for the Fadiman's & Weir's were forgotten. We are not meant to dominate nature but be part of it. Peace & Love were not bad things to expound. It is what one brings home & does after the class that determines if you practise the lesson in life.
While I agree with almost everything said I am resistant to psychedelics becoming a medical only drug. If psychedelics teach us anything about being 'open minded' it must also apply to how they're used. On the other hand, I understand that to avoid another reactionary rejection these need to be integrated into western society in a way that is non threatening and the medical treatment is one way western society will accept their use, but it will not stop there and we all know it.
I can imagine in 10 years we have schools of psychedelic experience where people come for curated experiences or come to learn how to guide their own and others experiences and that's amazing and beautiful and awesome, but I also think that no one 'owns' psychedelics and their use should not be constrained to some pseudo religious psychedelic pedagogy. We have a right to explore our conscious how we please.
Psychedelics tend to fix problems at their core, unlike modern medicine which tries to fix the symptoms. This is why psychedelics work great for depression, addiction etc..
21:52 I saw her during my most profound salvia trip. She was placing leaves into a pot. Then a portal opened up and sucked me in to a place from and to which all energy flowed. Coincidentally enough, the following dialogue in this vid mentions that the psychedelic "opens a portal where we learn everything is interconnected". 22:06 But my life seems to influence the media, so I wonder if this documentary borrowed ideas from my story which I shared with universities many years ago.
I wish the word “marijuana” would cease being used due to it being created solely for the purpose to instil fear in ppl, it’s true, look it up. The proper word is “cannabis”.
27:57 everyone laughs crazily when the guy is talking about religion and psychedelics. Tells you all you need to know. Closed minded rationalist leftists just wanting to get high. So sad.
Don't know how many years until it becomes LEGAL and just what kind of proofs are really needed, obviously it should be LEGAL and coming with warnings and explanation required to the person taking them…the authorities who r leading us thinking that they're stopping like the mental health issues, craziness.. in the world but they don't realised how stupid and mental they're appearing themselves… Just so much to say 😂 ✌ And I wish there were 12.000.000.000 planet earth 🌍easy to go to, each with its specific people leaving in and what they find good to fucking do… For example : if you'd like to kill or kiss just go in the Earth 🌍 (planet) where its LEGAL to do, n do it and of course everyone will be out of their misery in this planet. Oh and a strong(HIGHEST) securities in all of these planets 🌍 🌍 🌍 which will ARREST people of not doing things that are ILLEGAL in that planet
The significant problem with this debate is that it departs from the flawed reductionist assumption that the brain creates consciousness and by confusing cause and effect in such a way, the understanding of psychedelics can only go so far. Only one of the 3 panelists doesn't think that way and he must have been asking why he was invited at all. Talking about phenomenology from a neuroscience standpoint, is like understanding traffic jams by looking at the mechanics of your car.
I understand why medical and scientific professionals speaking publicly would be very parsimonious with their viewpoints on widespread use of banned or controlled substances. That being said, I believe that the criteria for non harmful use of psilocybin are very easily met and that the cultural acceptance of responsible psychedelic drug use for anyone who wants the experience would be an extremely positive thing for society. Doubly so in an age of great technological change and social unrest.
Humans have been ritualistically throwing live babies in volcanoes for 9000 years too, must mean that's ok too? Sick evil computer simulated world, sick evil computer nerd controlling it. Dumb, boring, evil and cruel. 🖕
Leary gets demonized and misunderstood a lot.
Fuck drugs !
first of all weed is psychedelic it's just not hallucinogenic like the others ………………..
I wish the world would get rid of their bad stigma around psychedelics and look at them for their helpful and spiritual purposes.
Psychedelics are gonna change the world they already have been for a while and now their just growing. Peace and Love to all.
And the moment we’ve all been waiting for!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Get some proper chairs yo. Kinda the basics.

Scientists should create "LSD Comedown" as medicine. Tripping is fun but the comedown tho

Society tries to have white without black

it's nice to see adults/academics talking about psychedelics, not just people my age.

This needs to be legal.
In clinical settings with guidance.
And recreationally in dispensaries.
I'm watching this on acid 👅💙
Every president shoud have to do all psychedelics atleast once

Culture is singlehandedly the most importantly destructive thing we choose to prescribe to

I would like to dissolve my ego.
The science community should leave psychedelics alone

It’s like hitting the reset button
Cannabis is a lower form of psychedelic 😴🤦🏽♂️ she really put opioid n cannabis in the same sentence
Brought to you by Tabasco!
I'm disappointed that the heroic dose wasn't mentioned at all.
1:04 how much did they take?
59:04 how many milligrams did the cancer patients take?
What about bipolar😫? I hate being bipolar! I love life . I’m brilliant , but other time i can be less motivated for weeks so I become a hermit.

Humans have been ritualistically throwing live babies in volcanoes for 9000 years too, must mean that's ok too? Sick evil computer simulated world, sick evil computer nerd controlling it. Dumb, boring, evil and cruel. 🖕
