The way I think of these psychedelics, or a different way, is that they’re catalyst for the imagination.
Catalysts to say what has never been said, to see what has never been seen, to draw, paint, sing, sculpt, dance and act what has never before been done. To push the envelope of creativity and language and what’s really important is, I call it, the felt presence of direct experience, which is a fancy term, which just simply means we have to stop consuming our culture.

We have to create culture, don’t watch T.V. don’t read magazines, don’t even listen to NPR. Create your own road show.
The nexus of space and time where you are now is the most immediate sector of the universe, and if you’re worrying about Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody else, then you are dis-empowered. You’re giving it all away to icons, icons, which are maintained by an electronic media. So that, you want to dress like x or have lips like y, this is shit brained this kind of thinking. That is all cultural diversion, and what is real is you and your friends and your associations, your highs, your orgasms, your hopes, your plans, your fears. And, we are told no, we’re unimportant, we’re peripheral, get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a that, and then you’re a player. You don’t even want to play in that game.

You want to reclaim your mind and get out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that is being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world. Where is that at?

And in that instant comes
the low echo
of a beyond beyond,
a language archaic and soaked
in syllables and accents suited
for re-de-trans-forming,
bringing light
which brings out
melanin
from beneath another skin:
the hollow of a voice
which speaks alone.

If people are sending out negative energy and not meeting your expectations, it is important to send them unconditional love. They are simply being themselves, doing the best they know how. You will find great inner peace when you do not need others to act in a certain way to be happy yourself. When you send someone unconditional love, it is no longer possible for you to be harmed by his or her negative energy.
