Often enough to know
What did you see when you were there?
Nothing that doesn't show"

Well, if it's good enough for Aldous Huxley & a long line of other distinguished, serious, sensitive, intelligent & compos mentis adventurers consciously to experiment with psycho-active compounds in exploration of inner realms & altered states... Don't try this
at home, folks, or then again 'Why Not?'(in the immortal &
pertinent dying words of that incorrigible old tri This Freedom/Human Right is being curtailed by hypocritical 'anti-drug' policies of Govts around the world. Are they afraid we might wake up & see their 'world'(official version, authorised reality, consensual mass hallucination) as it really is? The 'kingdom of Heaven' is for little children wide-eyed in wonder....but they soon knock it out of you!

| "LSD reveals the whatness of
things, their quiddity, their essence. The wateriness of water is suddenly revealed to
you, the carpetness of carpets, the woodness of wood, the yellowness of yellow, the
fingernailness of fingernails, the allness of all, the nothingness of all, the allness of
nothing." (Stephen Fry, Moab is my Washpot) |
Cary Grant, who took LSD more than sixty times said this about his treatment in 1959: "All my life, I've been searching for peace of mind. I'd explored yoga and hypnotism and made several attempts at mysticism. Nothing really seemed to give me what I wanted until this treatment." As if prophetically, in 1939, he appeared in a film called 'Topper takes a Trip'! Hollywood heart-throb, Cary Grant took many trips. He was one of the pioneers. |
