Summary

Guest speaker: Terence McKenna [NOTE: All quotations are by Terence McKenna.] “Language is the software without which we wouldn't be people.” “Culture is a strategy for intensifying the dimensionality of an animal species.” “Somehow, the psychedelic experience is related to this bootstrapping process of climbing, organizationally, from one dimension to another, deeper and deeper into complexity. It's almost as though the psychedelic experience is a viewing of the process from the highest dimension in the plane.” “What you experience in the psychedelic experience is eternity, all of time.” “A shaman is someone who has seen the end.” “Ideas are the signposts of our destiny.” “It's an absurd question to ask the question, 'What will the world be like in 500 years?' What the world will be like in 500 years is unimaginable.” “Language is an informational creature of some sort.” “[Quantum physics] is our truth [about reality]. How crazy are you if your truth is something you can't even understand? And that's the situation that we are in.” Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option Trip by Kelly Matten & Walker Farrell The Museum Dose: 12 Experiments in Pharmacologically Mediated Aesthetics by Daniel Tumbleweed

0:24.3	And now that we're about halfway through the summer months, or I guess the winter months,
0:30.1	depending on where you're living right now, at least here in the States, it's been a summer
0:34.6	of rather unusual weather, and I believe that's true in other parts of the world as well.
0:40.1	Even here in drought-stricken Southern California, we've had the most rain during the month of July since records have been kept.
0:47.4	And, yes, I know that the rest of the country has been having some extremely difficult times in regards to rough weather this summer.
0:55.7	I just want you to know that if you're looking for a place to relocate and weather is one of your factors,
1:02.2	well, then you may want to take a look at Southern California,
1:05.6	because I don't think that you can find better weather all year long anywhere else on the planet.
1:11.8	And the preceding message was brought to you by the California Association of Studious Hippies,
1:18.1	or cash, which is something that you're going to need a lot of to pay for your rent out here.
1:23.9	Of course, we save on not needing heating and air conditioning.
1:28.2	And that announcement, by the way, has absolutely nothing to do with anything that we're
1:33.7	going to be thinking about today.
1:36.0	It's just that with the rest of the world having so many weather-related and natural disasters,
1:42.0	well, here in Southern California, we seldom have the chance to even
