Rick Tarnas on "Psychedelic Initiation in Postmodern Culture

Post by Soul_of_Shu »

While for me Rick Tarnas, hosted and introduced here by Matt Segall (Footnotes2Plato), may not be the most eloquent speaker, probably effected by some recent dental work, and this is a rather longish talk with quite a few pregnant pauses, it may still be worth a listen, if only in partial stages, for those interested in whatever role psychedelics may play in any paradigm shift, and/or the shift from Gebser's mental stage thinking to integral stage thinking, as currently being discussed elsewhere ...

Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.
