So let me get this straight? You're not against holistic remedies nor a new age utopia Perce? Because last time I checked, the fifties had pretty shit music and were kinda repressed, the sixties however was instrumental in altering our perception of each other and how we treat the planet. No, it didn't last thanks to government intervention as well as "pseudos" fucking things up as usual, but I kinda think a little more "new age" thinking is what we need. Do you think its all bad? Or are these groups set up to distract those with a certain mindset?

Unfortunately the sixties psychic revolution was 100% controlled and engineered. Mckenna and his stoned ape theory was instrumental in pushing the evolutionary theory, which morphed into the "religion" of atheism. Esalen maintains the "doctrine of evolution" on their tavi article. Esalen.org search tavistock. 2 articles, make sure you grab that PDF. Haven't been able to post another section for a while. let me try again.

What about the traditional use of psychedelics by indigenous cultures living harmoniously with their environment and (more or less) each other? McKenna also mentioned an instance where the FBI attempted early on to coopt the mushroom, and failed, but this may have been a cover story since the CIA/FBI apparently don't see eye to eye (excuse the pun)
