“To me, one of the really great mysteries of our time is how we can have something as valuable as psychedelics and yet have our government, and the public-at-large, have such an absolutely twisted view of it.”
“As for myself, I’m on record as saying that LSD is the greatest discovery that man ever made.”
“I have a lot of friends who are always telling me about all kinds of nutrients. Gosh, there are things that are really, really helpful. But I want to tell you that the thing that helps more than anything is a good psychedelic experience.”

Myron’s paper “Are psychedelics useful in the practice of Buddhism?” Is EXACTLY what I have been looking for: how to integrate psychedelic experience with daily life, giving meaning both to the experience and to life itself. I reckon Myron is a Guru in the truest sense.
No other and no self, no self and no distinctions – that’s almost it. But I don’t know what makes it this way. Something true seems to govern, but I can’t find the least trace of it. It acts, nothing could be more apparent, but we never see its form. It has a nature, but no form.

I admit that the “god” bit was rather annoying, nonetheless very enjoyable…thanks
So heartwarming to relive that. Love always, all ways. Thanks Lorenzo.
Yes, Rain. My thoughts exactly. What a breath of fresh air, Lorenzo! Such spirit! Such love!
I love that bit at the end there about Love and the river/well of flowing light as love. That was so beautiful. Thanks for sharing Lorenzo, this one really made my day.
