“The soul escapes quantification; the mind delights in it. The soul dissolves boundaries; the mind constructs them. The soul orients us toward the eternal; the mind toward the time-bound.”
Simon Yugler, Psychedelics and the Soul: A Mythic Guide to Psychedelic Healing, Depth Psychology, and Cultural Repair

“There’s a reason that so many Indigenous traditions rely on the most basic elements of life in their ceremonies: fire, water, earth, and air. The soul understands these things and the messages they carry. Even if the intellect is left grasping at straws, something in the body or spirit is cleansed or renewed. We cannot science our way through a descent to soul.”
Simon Yugler, Psychedelics and the Soul: A Mythic Guide to Psychedelic Healing, Depth Psychology, and Cultural Repair

“The gift lies in the giving, not in the thing itself. Someone, somewhere, desperately needs the very thing that was wrought from your unique journey of suffering. The treasure we pick up in our bleary-eyed scrounging around in the dust of the underworld has in it something our souls sorely need. Something the living world needs. So give away the gold. Even if you give it to the mountain winds, to the churning oceans, to the sleeping soil, to the hungry fire, don’t for a minute fool yourself into believing that you gave it to no one. For even more burdensome than grief is our obligation to transform it into something imbued with so much life, so much praise, so much gold, that the echoes of its hallowed sound can be heard by those listening, far below.”
