“i think what these
psychedelics do
is they put you very much in the here
and now and it's nothing more than that i mean
obviously i'm an egghead and an abstract
thinker and i hope to make my reputation in mathematics
But feeling is the primary validator of existence and if you dont know that you gotta go back to square one.
these things empower feeling they are catalysts for the imagination. You may not like what psychedelics do to you - they may terrify you.
But if it terrifies you, then surely it must have catalysed your imagination - otherwise you wouldn't have known that terror!”
