Terence's Film is finally released

PrakritiDas — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 17:11:37 GMT

My friends at Sacred Mysteries are distributing Terence's "The Alchemical Dream" which Terence made with Sheldon Rochlin and has never before been released. The trailer is at:
http://www.sacredmysteries.com/sacredmysteries/AlchemicalDreamDVD.htm#trailer
It is in preview screenings now, and will be available for sale on November 1st, so you can find a screening near you or download a contract and screen it yourself if you like. Details are at:
http://www.sacredmysteries.com/sacredmysteries/AlchemicalDreamDVD.htm

Here is the info on the film:
In the mid-1990's Terence McKenna and Mystic Fire's Sheldon Rocklin teamed up to make this rich and exciting film. Little did they know that this would be their last film. Filmed in Prague with Terence portraying his usual erudite rendition of the Irish Bard, this filmed classic takes us on a journey into the alchemical renaissance of King Frederick V and his wife Queen Elizabeth of Bohemia. Playing the role of John Dee, court magician for Queen Elizabeth of England, Terence McKenna shows us how the promise of a return to the tradition of alchemy was almost instituted in Europe. He also shows us that this early attempt at the creation of an alchemical kingdom actually lead to the European Renaissance and the institution of Cartesian science and the beginnings of rationalism within the western mindset. This incredible film is not only beautifully filmed but is Terence McKenna’s finest performance and a worthy eulogy to his genius.

McKenna's Successor

M_Glow — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 16:50:03 GMT

There isn't anybody out there in the psychedelic community that has really filled McKenna's shoes, but I thought it would be fun to try and name a few people that might be his successor.

Mark Pesce
A personal friend of TM. Virtual reality designer. Very influenced by TM and an excellent speaker and thinker.

Daniel Pinchbeck
Has written extensively about subjects McKenna covered.

And so forth.

Any thoughts?

"The McKenna Brothers"

ssqtch — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:31:08 GMT

this is a bit silly....
and I have not even played video games in 15 years or more...

but someone should make a video-game spoof of mario brothers that
is like a true-hallucinations themer-game where you collect plants and fungus
for points, face foes like sieve and crazed, coca addicted, wayward westerners,
race to get Dennis out of the bell tower...
as you got enough botanicals, the scene could slowly change to a psychedelic
hyperspace where you would encounter the machine elves.

maye someone should talk Eric Davis into making a virtual reality version!

sorry if this sounds blasphemous to some...
just a silly though.

Lots of Terence Audio I haven't seen before

Veritas — Mon, 19 May 2008 17:25:44 GMT

Much more than the normal list. This is from the psychedelic salon podcast and has many unique terence mckenna audio clips. Many are Terence McKenna, Ralph Abraham, and Rupert Sheldrake all discussing the subject at hand, while some are just McKenna.

JohnWilly — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 22:07:06 GMT

My ancestors are not risen from their deaths and guiding me from Heaven,
so with one life I am searching and I have found evidence of God.
The key to my divine discovery is synchronicity -
the knowledge of our Universe in humanity.

Synchronicity is visible in everything which relates to humankind, from the near approach of Earth and Mars on an American president's birthday to the cataclysmic Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami which coincided with the birth of a beloved and famous television personality. Synchronicity is scientifically proven but it's generally unsought and it's value unnoticed. Carl Jung, the Swiss scientist who coined synchronicity, studied the subject but his work died soon after he died. The motion of Earth around our Sun, that's synchronicity. It's recognized but unkept. The majority of us, when we look at our Sun and other stars, don't give it another thought; our Sun is too bright and we're too dim to contemplate it, we might believe. Meaningful coincidence, kismet, grace, synchronicity, it's a mystery we've all experienced and I've taken it a few steps further to show how events of all levels of importance are connected. I'm not building a better computer or engineering a better cow, I'm saying there's no separation between us and God. Language is human-created and generated, all from the same singular source and one of the tricks to understanding the miracle of synchronicity is the discovery of the intimate and luminous link between humankind and the system of Earth and sky, our system of great industrial and individual innovations and ideas, of family and personal evolution.

August 27:
2003 - The close encounter of Earth and Mars. The last time Mars was as close had been 60,000 years prior.
1962 - America's NASA Mariner 2 spacecraft departed Earth for Venus.
1908 - U.S. President Lyndon Johnson was born.
1906 - Inventor Lee DeForest filed his patent application at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the Audion, an electronic amplifier device. It was a major invention at the start of the electronics era.
1883 - One of Earth's most violent volcanic eruptions occurred, at Krakatoa, Indonesia.
1859 - The first oil well in the Americas was drilled, in Titusville, Pennsylvania, United States.

On August 27, 1859, Edwin Drake drilled the first successful oil well of the Americas in Titusville, Pennsylvania. Near another Titusville - Titusville, Florida - also an August 27th, America's Mariner 2 spacecraft was launched. It rocketed away from Cape Canaveral in 1962, on then-Vice President Lyndon Johnson's birthday. Mariner 2 reached Venus in late 1962, it was the first spacecraft to relay data from another planet in our solar system. On the anniversary of Mariner 2's launch, our Sun brought Earth and Mars near each other in 2003, the nearest the two planets had been in 60,000 years. The Earth-Mars close encounter harmonized with the eruption of Krakatoa on August 27, 1883, one of Earth's most violent volcanic eruptions. The eruption created a tsunami which killed 36,000 Indonesians. Krakatoa is an island off Sumatra's southern coast and Sumatra's northern coast was the epicenter in 2004 of the cataclysmic magnitude 9.1 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami which killed 250,000 people in several nations. Exactly one week after Krakatoa's eruption telephonic pioneer Harold DeForest Arnold was born in Woodstock, Connecticut, home of puppeteer Caroll Spinney, Sesame Street's Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch. Harold DeForest Arnold was the man who delivered our world long-distance radio and transcontinental telephone service. He died the year Caroll Spinney was born. The catastrophic Indian Ocean earthquake occurred on Spinney's birthday: December 26th. Sun... is Spinning Earth. Synchronicity is simplicity, the Sun, the creator of life, giver of sight. Harold DeForest Arnold delivered our world long-distance radio and transcontinental telephone service using the audion tube, an electronic amplifier device invented in 1906 by another DeForest - Lee DeForest. Lee DeForest had celebrated his 10th birthday one day before the eruption of Krakatoa. He filed his patent application for the audion at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on the anniversary of Krakatoa's eruption, the anniversary of the drilling of the first oil well of the Americas, the day Mariner 2 was launched. Volcanoes, oil wells and rockets, all three can have an eruptive, ejaculatory quality. Johnson(as in President Lyndon Johnson, for whom The Johnson Space Center in Houston is named) is slang for penis, another in the line of things which do erupt and ejaculate, and potentially give life. Volcanoes can create land, oil can produce light and give life to machines, and sperm, alive inside all men, made every mammal on the planet and are swimming their way towards eggs now. And rockets, rockets can inspire imaginations.

Comparing Solar Wind and the Mayan Sacred Calendar

DMG/Darkmother.com — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:41:37 GMT

The Mayan Sacred Calendar (the Tzolkin) is said to be a graphic representation of a Logic expressed by star harmonics that unlock doors of consciousness and interdimensional reality. Having translated the Tzolkin into sound, we offer you a comparison between that and actual NASA recorded solar wind.

When the Tzolkin's harmonic Logic is sequenced in the sonic register and played back at high speed, it sounds very much like solar wind recorded by the Voyager spacecraft, also played back at high speed. The primary dif being the Tzolkin is composed of only 13 harmonics and the solar wind has them all.

Check it out:
http://www.DarkMother.com/SolarwindTzolkinComparison

Enjoy! ;)

Ive organised a Shamanic Adventure into Peru. Anyone interested in joining me?

Dean — Wed, 28 May 2008 12:20:11 GMT

Hi,
Its Dean Jefferys here, the filmmaker who made the Shamans of the Amazon DVD.

Since I organised the last Shamanic Adventure into Peru and Machu Picchu in 2004 amongst other things, I have been working solidly to help the whales and dolphins swim free. I will be crossing the pacific to go to the International Whaling commission meeting in Chile in June to try to help the whales and dolphins and thought this was a good opportunity to organise another Shamanic Adventure into Peru. Read the reports from my last trip and get more info about the trip at http://www.shamansoftheamazon.com. This trip also fits in with The Fourth International Amazonian Shamanism Conference: Magic, Myths & Miracles, Iquitos, Peru July 19th-27th, 2008 see http://www.soga-del-alma.org/ConferenceSite/

So I am organising some shamanic trip options for those who may want to join me and have a direct experience with Ayahuasca, San pedro, the mountains, the jungle the shamans and everything else. You can't go to Peru without visiting the Sacred valley and Machu Picchu region. I have meet a strong shaman named Sayre who lives in the Sacred valley to facilitate the journey. Sayre is a descendant from the Incas. We ran an amazing tour together in 2004. see a short clip I made of that trip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oI-PSBxa50 Also see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4ru3z0OtXE&NR=1

We have put together a great journey visiting many of the sacred sites in the Sacred valley and Sayre will run many San Pedro and Ayahuasca ceremonies throughout the 16 day trip around the Sacred valley and Pulcalpa in the Amazon jungle, from the 3rd of July to the 18th of July. In Pulcalpa we live and drink with the Shipibo people and shaman until the start of the conference on the 19th of July. See itinary. http://www.shamansoftheamazon.com/journey2.htm For more information about the Shipibo and the work Sayre is doing with them see http://web.iapicc.org/. and http://www.weaversofwisdom.org/index.php?id1=projects&id2=shipibo

I will also be staying on in the Iquitos region after the Shamanic conference for a week and visiting an Ayahuascaro shaman to do more ceremony. You may wish to also attend the conference ( you have to organise and pay for the conference seperately) and if you want to spend more time in Peru with the medicine join me before and / or after the conference. The Sacred valley, Machu Picchu, Pulcalpa trip is $2400 USD for the 16 days and 15 nights. Which works out at $160 pr night. It will be a jammed pact shamanic adventure, not for the light hearted.

Once you arrive in Cusco everything including sessions will be paid and catered for. Internal flights though will need to be paid by you. If you want to join me just for the amazon leg after the conference I have organised a 7 day 6 night amazon shamanic adventure it will be $780 = $130 pr day. Again everything will be catered for including aya sessions. We will be going to see Percy Garcia. He has been working with medicinal plants for over 25 years since he was 12 years old. Percy has excellent ayahuasca and he is a very very humble man. He has private cabins as well as his maloca, everything is screened in. The maloca was built over a small river, really nice. He is about 48 kilometers outside of Iquitos. We should get 2 or 3 ayahuasca sessions in, in that time. He has lots of information about medicinal plant of the jungle he will share with us and take us to some special places in the amazon Jungle. We will also learn how to prepare the sacred brew. As this journey starts in only 6 weeks I need to get numbers sorted out and confirmed asap

Also I want to let you know that I have just released a new DVD which includes all my Shamanic stuff. Its a 3 DVD Boxed set and includes some classic extra clips from the cutting room floor. Its 332 mins of running time. Its for sale from my http://www.shamansoftheamazon.com/sales.htm website.I ll be shooting another doco on the trip and may be doing some live internet streaming of both conferences in SA from my still to be built Online TV website. Ill let you know when it happens.

Also Im am planning three, 10 day retreats called "Diving into whale conciousness" in Tonga on a small tropical island in the middle of the pacific ocean, starting mid August. Tonga is one of 3 locations on the globe where humans can legally swim with whales and the humpbacks come here to breed and play from July to October. see http://www.malaislandresort.com/ for a taste of what im organising there. It will be around $2500 for 10 days with the whales.

If for some strange reason I dont get the numbers for the trip your deposit will be refunded 100% If you pull out half your deposit will disappear into another dimension. If you are interested please respond expressing your interest and I will put you on a special email list that I will send out more info to you. If you have any friends who you feel may be interested in one of these trips feel free to pass this web address onto them. Likewise if you or a friend has a related shamanic type website that may wish to swap web links feel free to pass this one onto them or contact me. If you are on my email list and someone you recommend this trip to, comes on the trip, you can recieve $50 aud and a free 3 DVD boxed set of "Shamans of the Amazon" For more details, photos and reports from the last trip see other pages on my website. http://www.shamansoftheamazon.com
Also see a 8 minute clip of "Shamans of the Amazon" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NZpOXj6u78

I hope to be at both the International Whaling commission and the The Fourth International Amazonian Shamanism Conference with My http://www.Planetearthinternettv.com to do live interactive internet streaming of the events and all that happens around it. Including run downs of the days events and interviews with delegates and activists. Its not up yet but check it in a week or so. And stay tuned.

Loven Light

Novelty Theory Calculations

tom — Wed, 21 May 2008 03:33:26 GMT

Although I have not personally worked out most of the math behind the theory, I have read several articles and synopses of the theory. One thing that stands out to me is that the TimeWave records Novelties, or events that have not occured previously. These are usually species-changing, or some may say, consciousness changing events. Population, technology, food and materials production, communications capabilities, miniaturization, speed of travel, and many other things, are all increasing at what is known as an accelerating rate; that is, they are increasing and the rate at which they are increasing is also increasing. A group of mathematicians has plotted graphs of all of humanity's major developments and projected them out to where they all, more or less simultaneously hit infinity. Guess what that date is---12/21/2012!

According to the mathematical model, we should see approximately 61 more of these species-changing developments before 12/21/2012! All of the same magnitude as the three noted above! Again, it's only a model, but it is predicted that 18 of those changes will occur on the last day, and 13 of those will happen in the last FRACTION OF A SECOND, as things accelerate towards that infinity point.

According to a spreadsheet I've worked out, there should have been one of these events on May 30, 2007. Where it occurred, or how we feel the effect, I do not know. The next, according to my calculations, is due on May 19 2010.

beb — Sun, 04 Feb 2007 04:57:43 GMT

Just started listening to this last night. Heard the first section where he is in the Phoenix bookstore and discussing the book and how it came about. Facinating and humorous! Terrence has always had the ability to make me laugh heartily, and for this (and a zillion other reasons) I thank him eternally.

Anyone else heard this audio all the way through?

Anyone interested in converting Terence McKenna speeches to text?

Veritas — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 07:05:49 GMT

As the subject indicates... is anyone interested in converting Terence McKenna speeches to text?
So far I've done Eros and Eschaton and The World and Its Double.

It is relatively easy but only if you are a fast typer. You just listen along and type what you hear. I recommend using WinAmp to view because you can press alt+tab to shift between windows (to and from winamp and your word document), and then press the left arrow button and it will rewind approximately 4 seconds if you get behind... really easy way to do that. And not to mention you understand the concepts a lot better since you are writing them down.

I hope to get a website started with these types of speeches and transcriptions among other things.

If anyone is interested let me know... like I said it really helps if you're a fast typer when doing this, so keep that in mind.

**************************************************

Greetings to all my relations.

This is the last step of our project History Watch. If History is
defined and known by the texts, we can now add to this definition the
recorded events of the filmed archives. Animated images are harder to
deny than printed words. Our objective is to spread out freely some of
the little broadcast, even hidden informations about our collective
History.

We put online a collection of 391 documentaries and other selected and
recut videos, to offer to a wide public the best of the infos
available on the net in english and in french. If you are interested,
you have the time, the right equipment and connection, all you have to
do is open the joint document and decompress it if needed (but normaly
your system should do it automaticaly). You'll find therein nine links
that will open the torrents for the nine DVDs we compiled (around 4.6
Gig each, for a total of a little over 41 G, being over 100 hours of

Mudvayne

ik — Sat, 23 Feb 2008 17:51:08 GMT

The first time I ever heard Terence McKenna speak I was 13 years old, all decked out in black dickies and spiked hair.
I bought Mudvayne's album LD50
and in their trippy psychedelic interlude tracks, they sometimes sample Terence McKenna.

I heard "Yes...
we are an ape with a symbiotic relationship to a mushroom
and that has what's given us self-reflection
language
religion
and all the spectrum of effects that flow from these things"

Chills went up my spine.
I knew I had to seek this mushroom.

And I did....

:]

I don't really listen to metal or hard rock any more (except for Sleepytime Gorilla Museum!!)
but looking back on those times of my life
I am grateful.

Just wanted to share.

Psychedelic Torchbearers

trancedan — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 18:45:20 GMT

In the 48th episode of WUOG's podcast called "Out There Radio," the issue of psychedelics is revisited with biographical sketches of two generations of psychedelic torchbearers: Timothy Leary and Terence McKenna. This offers an interesting, albeit introductory, treatment on origins and continuation of the contemporary psychedelic movement in an examination of its two most well known, and controversial, proponents.

http://wuog.org/podcasts/mp3/outthere48.mp3

For more episodes: http://www.outthereradio.net/

I listened to this last night and while one of the two hosts has some intelligent things to say about the contributions of both Leary and McKenna, the other host is a bit dense and, without being disparaging, may serve as a "straight man" off of whom to find your own opinion.

If you listen, please post back to let us know your take!

When five American college students arrive in Ireland to go on camping trip with their old college buddy Jake, they are in high spirits. Jake has promised them the ‘trip’ of a lifetime’ because he claims Ireland has the best magic mushrooms in the world. It sounded like it would be great fun. Now that they are tripping things don’t seem so funny. BLUTO, one of the gang is missing. TARA thinks he’s dead because she feels she has seen his death before but nobody believes her they think she is just out of it. They’re out of it too. That was the whole point of coming here, but there is something out there, something watching them, something that will kill them if they don’t get out of the forest and get help.

Call out to the Terence McKenna community

chycho — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 23:18:38 GMT

Hi all, here is the quickie.

Marc Emery, the publisher of Cannabis Culture magazine, is about to cut a deal with the DEA in which he will be sent to jail for 5 to 10 years for selling seeds online. This way his co-accused and friends can walk away without charges. Before he goes to jail he is planning on doing a Canada wide tour where he will try to bring more attention on this case and educate people about politics and cannabis. He needs to raise some money and here is where we come.

When Terence McKenna was sick Emery, personally and through the Marijuana party donated a few thousand dollars to help Terence with his medical bills.

It might be time to return the favor and show that we take care of our own.

There is additional info on my blog at:

“Canadian Government Crucifies one of their citizens to appease their Neoconservative American Masters”
http://www.chycho.com/?q=node/1564

and through Cannabis Culture at:

“Proposed Cross-Canada Tour: Marc Emery Speaks... for the last time?”
http://cannabisculture.com/articles/5154.html

Marc has done a lot to free us, the least we can do is let him know that he is not alone, and show the DEA that there is a lot more of us then they would like to admit too.

Terence's birth and birth of LSD in synchronicity

JohnWilly — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 21:52:23 GMT

Terence McKenna was born 11/16/46.

"LSD was first synthesized on November 16, 1938 by Swiss chemist Dr. Albert Hofmann at the Sandoz Laboratories in Basel, Switzerland, as part of a large research program searching for medically useful ergot alkaloid derivatives. Ergot is a fungus that, by infecting cereals grains used for making rye breads, causes ergotism. After Dr. Hofmann succeeded in synthesizing ergobasine (which became the preeminent uterotonic), he began experiments with other molecules based around the central lysergic acid component shared by ergot alkalines."

5 grams dried Creepers - thank you, Terence

bearsky — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 20:22:15 GMT

Breakthrough Experience
02/25/07
Snow had been falling outside the large bedroom windows all morning. It was about 10am and I sat in bed alone enjoying the snow and eating five grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms that I had grown myself. I chewed them slowly and thoroughly and it took a while to get the whole five grams down. They were nutty tasting, not really too bad. I felt positive. It was the perfect day for my first high dose experiment. Good set, good setting. I felt very open. This was the from a third flush of fruiting of a strain called Creepers. Early on in my experiments with plant teachers I had made a decision not to beat drums or wave feathers around. I had to except the fact that I was a suburban white man and not a South American Shaman. My ceremony consisted simply of sincerely focusing on healing and just being as open to the experience as I possible could. I sat back and read some from Richard Evans Schulte’s, Ethnobotony: Evolution of a Discipline. Of course, I went immediately to the chapters dealing with Ayahausca. This was the point just after consuming the mushrooms when I usually felt the most fear and this morning was no exception. In fact, since this was the largest dose that I had yet tried, I sat on an underlying terror this beautiful, snowy morning and reading has always been a panacea for me emotionally. Even though my wife was in the living room, I felt totally alone. I had evolved a little mind trick such that after ingesting the mushrooms, I tried to forget that I had just ingested them and force my mind to concentrate on something else. This particular morning I was definitely only partly successful and while I read a part of my mind kept thinking: “five grams, Oh man this is scary”. It’s hard to describe this feeling after I’ve eaten them – I’ve never skydived but maybe it’s like what a skydiver feels after just leaving the plane: total commitment now, no going back.
Then I felt it coming on about forty minutes in and looked out at the snow: wow, how beautiful, I thought. I would have to call it a bright and snowy day. I put the book down and lay on my back with my eyes closed, systems check. I felt a little sick, chilled as if with fever, stomach a little upset, and I pulled up onto my left side with the covers up to my shoulder. This way I could see out the window to where the snow accumulated on a big boxwood. I tried to relax and just be open. I had felt this chill before but not so strongly as today. I suddenly felt that an elephant was coming to sit on my chest and my fear exceeded all possible expectations. I knew that I could not move and that the elephant was near. It was almost like I could feel the massive vibrations of its ponderous steps getting stronger as it got closer. I started counting my breath and deep breathing, trying to just empty my mind except for the counting. This was really my only trick but it always helps. I felt nauseas suddenly, balled up in the fetal position, making myself as small as possible, drawing inward, still counting breath but the elephant was upon me now. He sat on my chest and I couldn’t breath. This is it, I am going to die, I thought. I gave myself to it because I knew at very deep level that I had no choice.
My wife was out in the living room and she knew what I was doing. My request was to just leave me alone until I came out of the bedroom. As the elephant crushed the life out of me, some little part of me considered calling out for help. Another part of me asserted itself strongly then right through the fear and firmly dismissed that idea. I had come too far and worked too hard to bail out now before having even gotten started. Be here, be now, I told myself repeatedly, continuing to breath deep and count breaths to belay the fear. At some point the elephant left, quickly and without fanfare, the fear leaving with it. Fear of what exactly I could not even recall, pure fear of death maybe.
A soothing calm seemed to slip into the emotional space the fear had left just as easily as breath: breathing in, breathing out. I considered myself an agnostic if not an atheist but I felt as if I were engaged now in prayer and the prayer was only this, “come”.
I felt myself being drawn upward in a counterclockwise swirling and then “I” was off in the back of the room hovering about six feet off of the ground and I was looking at my body, curled up in the fetal position on the bed. Somehow I understood that I was inhabiting my soul now. This made a huge impression on me since I had not known that I possessed a soul until this very moment. Quite a revelation for a borderline atheist perhaps as you could imagine. As soon as my brief reflections about a soul ended, I felt myself shoot off to the south. Really, I felt my new soul body pulled off to the south at fantastic speed and a second later I was at my office in Springfield, VA – or, rather I was in a “soul office” rendition of the real office where I had worked for twenty years. This place appeared to be a reality connected to our own through our soul body – a soul world. I tried to wrap my mind around it but the only way I could make sense of it was to think of the soul world as a mirror world to our own. It was almost as if when we waved our hand in this physical reality, our soul hand also waved. But that was not quite right, either. This soul world did not exist as a simple reflection of our own. It also was alive just as is our physical world. Also, everything seemed to be emotionally supercharged in this soul world, the emotion the same that I had dealt with my entire life only magnified in intensity a thousand fold.
This soul world was intense.
It would be boring beyond repair to go too deeply into my actual work place and I would not want to suffer that upon anyone. Picture an office environment but with a strong touch of the old TV show MASH thrown in. We were either kicked back doing nothing but shooting the shit, usually in the most unprofessional manner imaginable; or, we were thrashing around in a sort of fog-of-war trying to keep a handle on an exploding concrete dispatch department, one of the biggest on the east coast. No matter how well you might prepare; no matter how many plans you might make, a point came inevitably – and the inevitability of it all really wore on me – when it all would come tumbling down. I recall hearing a study wherein rats are given a negative stimulus of a random shock through the wire mesh of their cage. Another control group is given shocks at exactly the same intervals only the control group can jump on a switch which stops the shock. The group with no control basically went insane while the group with some sense of control adapted to the shocks. We were in this office of course the group with no switch to stop the shock – just random and constant negative reinforcements. I always thought of it as humpty dumptdy falling off the wall. O shit, here goes humpty dumptdy, again. The customers were actually less of a nuisance than my own company. I suspect that this is a fairly common theme in the workplace. Under various conditions I learned over and over the hard lessons that bad leaders teach. I had no feelings about concrete whatsoever. I often wondered at how I had gotten myself in the concrete business. Again, I am sure that I am not alone in this sentiment. Freud is much in disfavor now I know but he said life was about two things, work and love, and in that I think he had a point. If you are doing what you really love, you are fortunate indeed. In real life and in this soul world my workplace very much became a microcosm of society at large. It took a while to sink in that this work place was the way of the world not an isolated incident. It gave me a whole new perspective on history: how the hell did we make it this far? It was so frustrating for me after two decades there seeing answers and solutions everywhere but having no power in this corporate setting to effect any meaningful change whatsoever.
So work went on in this soul workplace for what seemed like thousands of years. It was no different at all than it normally was only as I said sort of supercharged emotionally. It was a kind of hell and I was aware that I was in a soul world hell workplace such that I was constantly thinking: “so this is a bad trip, I guess. I have to get something out of it!” And I sought constantly to understand what this horrible place was suppose to be teaching me? I believed from my readings of so many other peoples experiences with plant teachers that “bad trip” was simply a means of spiritual growth and healing. After a while I began to feel frustrated that I could not get out. I could not understand no matter how hard I tried in exactly what manner this was suppose to be helping me. I felt stuck in this soul work place and this feeling of being stuck was really, really scary – I could not find the door out of this place. Finally, I realized that this horrible place was teaching me nothing. It was only annoying me and distracting me from my life. There is nothing to learn here, I thought inside the experience. As if that simple insight were the key to open the door, I left this soul workplace and found myself back in my physical body still curled up on the bed, the snow still falling outside. Wow, I thought surprisingly lucid, that was amazing.
I didn’t move at all except my eyes watching the snow still falling fat white flakes gentle and slow. I felt completely lucid and lay still thinking about what had just happened. It was not lost on me the parallel between my real life experience at work and this soul experience. It was so real – I, or my soul, had been in this soul workplace just a moment before and now I was back in my body in our bedroom. The lesson about my work was clear. I recalled some saying that mushrooms address your most serious issues first. I thought of this because I was sure that I had far more serious personal emotional issues to deal with than my work – I felt and still do that the truth dear Brutus is not in the stars but in ourselves. This all served to really make it sink in right there just how negative my work had been for me all these years. I did not know what time it was because the clock was behind me but I assumed a couple hours had gone by, the experience had seemed to go on for so long. The diffuse light of the cloudy day didn’t give any hint as to the time. I was certain that the experience was over. For some reason, the thought of actually moving, even enough to turn and look at the nightstand clock, never occurred to me. I felt peaceful and calm. I cannot say if at this time I was even able to move because I didn’t try. Just as soon as I sort of came to terms with what had just happened to me, having rolled it all around in my conscious mind, I felt my head spinning again and closed my eyes – the spinning continued upward even with my eyes closed and I thought, “ it’s not over”, perhaps more surprised than I have ever been in my life.
After so many false starts that had been the real thing, no colors or patterns or really what I would call hallucinations at all but instead a totally altered state of reality - I seemed to have lost consciousness and I guess it was little bit like a dream but that was no dream. Then I felt this counterclockwise spinning again and still without moving a muscle my eyes glanced up into the spinning and my lucidity faded. What was really weird was that there was an UP at all. There was though and up "I" went, my soul. I went faster and faster and my soul just sort of tore away finally and I thought, wow, so my soul is no more what "I" am than is my body - my soul is also just a vehicle. I had just discovered my soul - stupid like discovering your belly button - but I was kind of enamored with my soul already. Nevertheless, I continued soulless on straight upwards at fantastic speed through the earth’s atmosphere and off into space and I felt a slight tug - what was that? That was language which apparently had been connected to earth by means of a really long umbilical cord and before it snapped it very gently tugged as the cord reached its end before breaking. Wow, so that was language and now it is gone, I wondered. But I couldn't help but notice that I wondered this with language - and this made me laugh.
This was the beginning of what I call my abandonment experience where the mushrooms cured my lifelong abandonment fear by abandoning me in some Nether Region of reality for a billion years. Language was really finally and completely gone and I just felt – felt angry at the mushrooms for abandoning me. I was totally aware of what was happening and that the mushrooms were responsible for all of this. Another part of me found it kind of humorous and I could imagine the mushrooms saying, “hey, got your abandonment right here!” My angry side became very annoyed at the part of me which could see the humor of it all and after some time this angry side sort of won out. My anger spread out for light years and I became this anger spreading out so far as to be just a vague, disembodied cloud of energy drifting through vast and vacant distances of space, hardly corporeal at all. I felt as though each of my molecules were light years apart. I seemed to be a spread out as I could possibly be and still exist at all. I knew the mushrooms had abandoned me for my own good, very aware of my abandonment issues. This abandonment fear was the bane of my emotional life, maybe the root of all evils for me. How could I be at all authentic if I were so afraid of being alone? I knew that I was only pretending without authenticity. Time passed as I drifted trans-emotional through eons of space time and I thought of how I was stewing in my own proverbial juices. This part is very important, I think. I existed in this state for a billion years. Now to say a billion years is simply to try and put into language what defies language. It seems that this is the transformative power which the mushrooms possess, among others, they can impart direct experience. This experience was as real, or more real, than any experience in my life. How else could one actually experience a billion years of abandonment? Not think of it or imagine it - but actually experience it? From this I also took away a profound sense of time, especially a sense of the immensity of time involved in our DNA life and Its diversity here on the planet. So unfathomably much can happen in a billion years. As alone and isolated as I have felt all of my adult life, that was nothing compared the utter and complete abandonment I felt and as “time” stretched on the depth of my abandonment feeling reached what I can only describe as cosmic proportions. It is so hard to find the language for this but after eons and eons of time I began to kind of lose focus on this abandonment feeling and I began to experience other feelings. Wow, look at how beautiful it is out here. I can see infinity. Wow, it is so good to be alive, I thought – a thought that would seldom come to my normal self. Then I felt as if you might feel when you are very uptight and someone massages your neck. I really began to stretch out into my disembodied form and to feel the immensity of myself, discovering that I was far larger than I had thought; in fact, as I sort of relaxed my muscles and really stretched it out, I saw that there was no end to what I was: I am infinity.
Again, a billion years is an unimaginably long period of time. I thought about things as we all do. I thought about history, philosophy, my relationships, everything. I had literally all the time in the world to think about things. I really could spend the rest of my life just writing about this “billion years” but little of it was particularly profound and much of it would be only of interest to me. The point is, I went over my life, my feelings, my decisions, the books I’d read, the movies I’d watched, the dreams I’d had, the mistakes I’d made, just absolutely everything imaginable. At some point I discovered that my abandonment feelings were gone. How can I be alone when I am a part of everything and everything is a part of me? Much like in my first soul workplace experience, this “realization” seem to bring me back to my body still curled up on the bed in our bedroom.
This time I knew that my “trip” was over. I managed to move for the first time and saw that an hour and a half had passed approximately since I had first felt it coming on. I sat up on the side of the bed testing my mobility, surprised to find myself fully ambulatory. First of all, it sure seemed like longer than an hour and a half. Second, there was a deeper level of reality experienced within the “second”, abandonment experience that seemed more real than either my normal consciousness or the other tripping consciousness that I just left. This part only came to me as I sat up in bed and it took my breath away. There were multiple levels of reality, that was for sure. The abandonment experience was much deeper than the soul experience – beyond the soul, I guess. My God it was like a spiritual hall of mirrors. In this yet deeper level that now came to me, it was like a dream within the psilocybin experience – a mushrooms dream. This part was so very, very far beyond words such that I almost don’t know how to explain it? The only way is to use words and they will be like hollow, paper renditions of the real experience, like watching a puppet rendition of reality as opposed to the actual flesh and blood of life itself. I was part of a spiritual group of entities who were storming heaven in an attempt to Kill God. Our group mantra rang out: God must die! We fought a horrendous battle and lost, my last memory was that I was not injured and was helping my group retreat with dead and wounded. The defeat was horrible again beyond words but we all had the sense that we had lost a battle not a war and that we would be back. We may have been beaten badly but we were still totally committed to the war, to killing God. This part of the experience would weigh on me heavily and it is almost all I thought of the rest of this Sunday – I felt as though I had abandoned “my people” and I wanted desperately to get back to this battle, to my fellow entities. And this aspect of the experience haunted me for some time. A strange thing is that this aspect after some months came to feel as if it were a significant dream, fading a little. The other aspects of the experience remained as strong and clear as any important, actual experience that I had in my life.
The snow continued falling outside as I stood, testing – yes, I could walk. I felt as though it were over now. I found this surprising since it had only been less than two hours since ingesting 5 grams of dried mushrooms. Well, that was absolutely nothing like what I had expected! It seemed like a big deal to open the bedroom door and proceed into the living room where my wife and the dogs were. I hesitated at the bedroom threshold for a moment feeling a profound sense that I was actually opening the door to the whole, wide world not just our hallway.

Mayan Blood Skull Masks?

bearsky — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 14:48:43 GMT

6 grams dried psilocybin, mix of three strains, mostly nasty aborts that I had saved over time - wanted to see what these stunted rejects had to say. This was a nasty looking little pile, I must say. I don't know much about Mayan philosophy does anyone find this imagery corresponds to any definitive Mayan constructs?
I saw "Mayan" (don't ask me how I identified them as Mayan?) masks. The masks were human skulls and inside each mask seemed to be a human staring out - if I tried to look closer they were just empty masks but there was a creepy sense that there were eyes within the masks. Blood was smeared identically upon each mask. It appeared as if a human hand, palm and fingers, had smeared each mask with blood in the same places. The largest smear was horizontal across the forehead and another smaller smear was horizontal across the chin. Two vertical smears ran one down each cheek. Even though each was smeared in the same place, each was individual, being just a little different because they were all done by hand. There were thousands or tens of thousands of these masks and they began to form double helixes clearly mimicking DNA strands. They formed two strands each with its set of two mirrored strands and they all began to spin counter clockwise moving upward something like a barber pole. At the time this was a healing trip and I forced myself to break away from these images thinking that they would lead me astray from my purpose on this trip - may have been real wrong about that? While I don't know much about Mayan culture or religion, DNA is a big personal theme for me and I thought that "the mushrooms" were trying to seduce me away from what I was trying to accomplish on this trip, which was not about me by "teasing" me with these revolving DNA strands. Time seemed to be a big theme on this trip - any ideas anyone?

New vids

trancedan — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 07:44:57 GMT

Terence & Mark Pesce rap about "technopaganism" and the coming concrescence at the end of history in this four part video series held at Esalen in Big Sur, August, 1998.

http://deoxy.org/watch?q=Pesce%20%26%20McKenna

As usual, Terence is at his usual elegance and volubility -- Pesce, on the other hand, doesn't draw the same interest or fascination from me -- seems less authentic or somehow more zealous, but less informed.

Nonetheless, a wonderful jaunt through the elements arising out of the tribulations of mind found in the entheogenic image-scapes evolving out of our very technological capabilities...

One foot in the Grave

bearsky — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 15:40:28 GMT

I had one foot in the grave when Terence Mckenna reached out from beyond his physical death and pulled me up not only onto earth but into life. What a subtle and wise man. The Mushrooms appear to me to be intelligent entities and to be communicating with us information that they uniquely possess about the many levels of reality in which we all exist at once, information that we ourselves do not possess. They clearly opened a door and I walked right on over to the other side. They enabled me to transcend space and time. They allowed me to have experiences impossible in this physical universe both in terms of time and space with one experience lasting a billion years. The billion years seemed quite real to me and still does today in an odd, dreamlike way.

Bardo Thodol as Inter-Planetary Magnetic Fields
http://tribes.tribe.net/8-circuitbrain/thread/0cd29030-31cd-4d9a-aab6-496b7f4f7986

this excerpt is from mountain tao systems in china-thailand more than kalichakric tibetan-indian, but same general root ( i think)

from: "Cosmic Healing II" , at universaltao.com from Mantak Chia:

the solar system is an energy structure with nine major awareness belts, planets are materialized form of belts

each belt has unique frequencies and qualities.. the soul remains strongly connected to the sun.. two clearly distinguished forms of soul are discussed:

1) sun related cloud soul of hun
2) moon related white soul po

po half comes into being at birth, preceding emergence of hun

soul starts incarnation process by moving through world of stars attracted by solar system where sun acts as a giant satellite station between the world of stars and planets

karmic information carried by soul determines how long it will remain in different planets' frequencies.. these frequencies affecting our learning possibilities and distinctive character qualities

during this incarnation the soul moves from un-manifested world through the star world, external planets, internal planets, and moon earth sphere.. an electro-plasmic force of humanity around the earth functions as an awareness belt connecting the soul with life on earth

later info covers five star palaces and five cranial bones and the opening of the crystal room to star frequencies

***************************************************************************************************************************************************

so it's one thing to say, another to have subjective experience, and another to externalize as objective proof and technology...

but I think the point here (for anyone who cares to read), is this:

if birds can sense the planet's magnetic field and poles as well as each other in flight to coordinate and migrate vast distances via the metal in their pineal glands/root eye/third eyes also visible on any iguanas forehead

and the bardo thodol is thought to be systematic solar planetary magnetic fields..

then you are left with the idea of a human telepathic mental field where souls are essentially higher frequency light structures... whose dimension is attune-able to by humans in the same sense as the earths field is to aviaries..

or in other words souls are postulated as, at a minimum, interplanetary magnetic denizens whose field is attuneable

SEE ME LUMINOUSLY UNCLOAKED

Captain — Mon, 24 Sep 2007 04:32:11 GMT

i wrote this at the thought of a christian al qaeda - i.e. the current administration and the new religious morality stance infiltrating the military.

hypothetically, what's the difference between high-tech fear driven control and the low-tech version? hm??
nationality?
skin color?
economic dominion?
the ability to be more sneaky and lie more cleverly?
there is NO moral right!
both are oozing from the same pore
i'm - we are affected on the homefront by the homefront

i hurt, do me a favor - disconnect me, let me be reworked.
but i'll never be top of the line again - i'd rather be nothing.

i've never said anything political my whole life...just sat back and watched the world get torn a new one. tolerated the smoke as it choked me, "it's their world to destroy". i'm timeless and it's not my problem.
this should tell you something if nothing has so far, that even i now come forth.

we are and will not as americans but as citizens of the world - we have to speak, even at our own risk, against the tactics of fear weaving and artificial scarcity. These gross tactics of oppression, it is seared into my mind and heart daily, by the hour - and the spiritual attainment i seek is meaningless as my enlightened flesh..acid rots off next to the corpses i meditate surrounded by.
we are making progress somewhere in the chaos but it takes those brave in the face of looming shadows to stand for it and shed light on it.
god help us???
here's a shovel and some workgloves - fucking 'get toit'.

this is brave new territory for me, i'm no political genius and i am standing at the edge of Obvious.
A simple person refusing to be cause.
you want the euphamism and romantic antiquity to shed? i do to, i love my art but refuse to use it as a riddle to hide behind what i firmly see and know is fucked up.
to my family, i can not be sorry about this now open strong disagreement, and i'm prepared to take the heat from any level to stand for a tangible sense of freedom and a truly living word.

equality embracing sin, here is the firm stance of One Being All. We are wrath, and to truly attain a divine state, ALL energy should be released.
aiming the light of your mind is giving energy to be fed off of, now is the time to as Light - with brilliant logic of the all connected, bravely enter the chaos and as True Strong Humans calm this storm from within.
like me, you are perfectly struggling right now, as i wrote before 'the eye of the storm and reason for it'
What I'm saying is Become Furious in Singularity.
Remember the Strength you are and you will, with nothing less than the full glory of the Human Spirit overcome the helpless attitudes We as One have projected onto the global geography.
Not by god, angel, alien or any Other intervention from an outside source.
I behold Humanity as the current raw temple that is the source of mind. To not conduct the whole scheme is to lack in projecting our push toward a successful sphere teeming with life and possibility.
Respect for your Self as the world will lead you to Truth and victory of tommorow happening now by the grace of our Own splendor.
Knowing this, to give you this is the real gift, because as Hell, wandering and hopeless i am an advanced mongoloid uncaged from the abyss to emerge and join alongside educated individuals as the advancing motion of FREEDOM IT SELF!!!
This is not special, unique, brave, or spectacular but the right to defend this planet I am and survive. I will exercize that right alongside my brothers and sisters to the fullest extent of the ingifted Law w/out running from looking shadows as i know now they are connected to MY feet and i stand on a foundation that cannot be dimished!
I give this Now.
The True are with me and in me, from the invincible Source of Mind, as One we will usher in a new era of Peace and Unity without gaps, born from refined consciousness in quality invested in All That I Am!
We, Us, Unity, One, Sustained, Constant, Strong.
Not from dominating numbers or material process but the educated individual radiant in darkness.
Progression of Being, and together we All Know beyond the shadow of doubt that It Is Here, It Is NOW and gushing out away from breaks in the loop surrounding our successful sphere.

Post and repost, repitition is not the enemy.

All Ways Here for Us,
K

Entheogen: Awakening the Divine Within

Maya — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 22:34:33 GMT

Review of this documentary from http://www.realitysandwich.com/archaic_revival. Looks pretty powerful:

While the feature-length documentary Entheogen: Awakening the Divine Within explores the re-emergence of archaic techniques of ecstacy, shamanism, entheogens and the evolution of consciousness, the film keeps at least one eye on the following questions: How can a renewal of ancient initiatory rites of passage alleviate our ecological crisis? What do trance dancing and festivals celebrating unbridled artistic expression speak to in our collective psyche? How do we re-invent ourselves in a disenchanted world from which God has long ago withdrawn?

A series of refreshing, engaging interviews with Stan Grof, Marilyn Schlitz, Ralph Metzner, Alex Grey, Terence McKenna, John Markoff, Daniel Pinchbeck, Jeremy Narby and Kat Harrison among others, postulate how the disenchantment of the modern world may be remedied by summoning the courage to take the next leap in the evolution of planetary consciousness.

Often films such as The 11th Hour and An Inconvenient Truth, while still important and profound, tend to, ever-so-slightly, stir the hurricane. Entheogen: Awakening the Divine Within goes right to the center of the storm, where calmer heads prevail.

Here's the trailer.
