Third eye drops are intended for open-minded adults.

Now administering the third eye drops. Welcome, welcome to the Wonder Dip, my friends, and I am so thrilled about this one.

0:28.8

I can't wait to spray it upon your neurons because we've got some hours behind us at this point 200 plus

0:37.8

podcasts but I've got to say that this mine melt, this particular one, might have the most potent moments of pure synthesis and resonance that I can remember, because there were numerous times that I felt like Dr Edo Cohen was just enhancing and nourishing and reinforcing my amazement for ideas that I already was pretty

1:07.9

intensely fond of. One instance in particular actually that really pops through is our collective.

1:16.4

And when I say our, I mean an hour that wraps around people interested in what can be loosey-goosey realms like

1:26.8

spirituality philosophy and wellness. Folks of our ilk, I think it would be safe to say.

1:36.2

We have this tendency to get bogged down in terminology and categorization, and then that leads to a in-kind diminishment of felt palpable

predatory hierarchy, and plenty of other hairy warts that none of us need on our souls.

3:09.8

So it was really fantastic to dig through all of that with Dr Edo Cohen and so much more,

3:17.6

particularly a lot of youngian concepts, like what it really means to do some of these nebulous things we always
