“The planet has a kind of intelligence, it can actually open a channel of communication with an individual human being. The message that nature sends is, transform your language through a synergy between electronic culture and the psychedelic imagination, a synergy between dance and idea, a synergy between understanding and intuition, and dissolve the boundaries that your culture has sanctioned between you, to become part of this Gaian supermind” HumansKindIdeasCultureIndividualLanguageUnderstandingImaginationHuman BeingsPlanetsCommunicationMessagesIntuitionBoundariesPsychedelicSynergy Author:Terence McKenna
“The 20th century mind is nostalgic for the paradise that once existed on the mushroom dotted plains of Africa where the plant-human symbiosis occurred 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 shows 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.” WayMindHumansMeanDoeMatterShowsBodyPastCultureImaginationAnimalCenturyCreaturesToolsEternityPlantBoardsParadiseExploring20th CenturyPsychedelicDoorwaysNostalgicMushroomsPsychedelic ExperienceWiringSymbiosis Author:Terence McKenna

We have come to the end of our separateness.” EndsMatterSpiritCultureUnderstandingTechnologyIntellectualContradictionIntegrationPsychedelicCyberPsychedelic ExperienceSeparatenessUltras Author:Terence McKenna
