called MAPS, Multi-disciplinary Association

advocates for the responsible investigation

and exploring their potential as tools for transformation,

And this is a moment that we're living in now.

Right, we're kind of living through a psychedelic

renaissance where, all of a sudden, people

have been used for thousands of years a little more seriously.

We're starting to take out the magnifying glass

and stop being alarmist and actually paying attention

and studying the potential of these tools, right?

So there's a fascinating article written by Timothy Leary

And the idea here was that if you could successfully

pattern and sequence the input signals that the subject would

receive when he was on a psychedelic odyssey,

you could literally assure functional output.

You could almost guarantee a functional catharsis,

that there would be of value to the psychedelic session.

And he described the psychedelic experience

to stimuli, both from within and from without.

so you are immediately plunged into a dialogue

like a Sensurround system, the fidelity, the resolution

almost eclipsed by the signals coming in.

if you don't pattern those signals by carefully choosing

that you can read while you are tripping,

controlling the environment, hanging around people

whose company induces feelings of well-being,

by patterning those signals, you're authoring the song.

The soul surfing that you're actually doing.

The people that engage in these mystical states

They're literally soul surfers investigating psyche

And there's all kinds of answers that we can find within.

There's all kinds of spaces that we can explore.

We have to look deeper into this mystery.

We need to explore these numinous realms,

We need to go Carl Jung on our own brains

using a cocktail of chemical technologies

that will thrust the bodymind into liminal spaces

We need to engineer inception-like dream spaces

And the technologies are not all going to be external.

Computers are drugs but drugs are computers.

This is why we should be open to this stuff
