"The greatest good you can do is bring back a new idea"  i am grateful Terence explored so many of his ideas on tape before he was gone

What we are looking for are middle size ideas..

Thanks, this question was recently on my mind.

Saw TOOL on wed. Feb 8th and saw a TOOL shirt at the merch tent and it had a fish on the front and a school searching for "bait".

"Conspiracy theory is a kind of epistemological cartoon about reality. I mean isn't it so simple to believe that things are run by the Greys, or isn't it comforting to believe that the Jews are behind everything, or the communist party, or the Catholic Church or the masons. I believe that the truth of the matter is far more terrifying that the real Truth that dare not speak itself is that no one is in control. This stuff is ruled by the equations of dynamics and chaos. Now there may be entities seeking control, the World Bank, the Communist Party, the rich, somebody others, but to seek control is to take enormous aggravations upon yourself, because this process that is under-way will take the control freaks by the short and curly and throw them against the wall."

"What civilisation is is 6 billion people trying to make themselves happy by standing on each others shoulders and kicking each others teeth in. It's not a pleasant situation. And yet you can stand back and look at this planet and see that we have the money, the power, the medical understanding, the scientific know-how, the Love and the community to produce a kind of human paradise. But we are led by the least amongst us, the least intelligent, the least noble, the least visionary, we're led by the least amongst us, and we do not fight back against the dehumanising values that are handed down as control icons. This is something, and I really don't want to get off on this because it is a lecture in itself but... culture is not your friend! Culture is for other people's convenience and the convenience of various institutions, churches, companies, tax collection schemes, what have you. It is not your friend, it insults you, it desempowers you, it uses and abuses you. Non of us are well treated by culture. And yet we glorify the creative potential of the individual, the rights of the individual, we understand the felt presence of experience as what is most important. But the culture is a perversion. It fetichises objects, creates consumer mania, it preaches endless forms of false happiness, endless forms of false understanding in the form of squirly religions and silly cults, it invites people to diminish themselves and dehumanise themselves by behaving like machines, meme processors of memes passed down from Madison Avenue and Hollywood and what have you."

"My notion of what the psychedelic experience is for is that we each must become like fishermen, and go out on to the dark ocean of mind, and let your nets down into that sea. And what you're after is not some behemoth, that will tear through your nets, follow them and drag you in your little boat, you know, into the abyss, nor are what we're looking for a bunch of sardines that can slip through your net and disappear. Ideas like, "Have you ever noticed that your little finger exactly fits your nostril", and stuff like that. What we are looking for are middle size ideas, that are not so small that they are trivial, and not so large that they're incomprehensible. That middle size ideas that we can wrestle into our boat and take back to the folks on shore, and have fish dinner. And every one of us when we go into the psychedelic state, this is what we should be looking for. It's not for your elucidation, it's not part of your self-directed psychotherapy. You are an explorer, and you represent our species, and the greatest good you can do, is to bring back a new idea, because our world is in danger by the absence of good ideas. Our world is in crisis because of the absence of consciousness. And so to whatever degree any one of us, can bring back a small piece of the picture and contribute it to the building to the new paradigm, then we participate in the redemption of the human spirit, and that after all it what it's really all about."

Terence Mckenna - Reclaim your mind

In this expansive talk, given at Fort Mason, San Francisco, on December 13, 1998, McKenna spins the spiritual analogies of dreaming and awakening into a wide-ranging discussion of consciousness, virtual reality, the primacy of language, the plasticity of time, culture as an operating system and the responsibility of working for cultural change.
