460-TMcKenna: "Our planetary birth process"

In today's podcast we rejoin Terence McKenna in his wide-ranging workshop from May of 1990. In just one hour, Terence spoke about ego, psychedelics, shamanism, language, virtual reality, time, death, and quantum physics, of which he said, “[Quantum physics] is our truth [about reality]. How crazy are you if your truth is something you can't even understand? And that's the situation that we are in.” Other interesting sound bites include, “Language is the software without which we wouldn't be people.” And, “Ideas are the signposts of our destiny.” We also learn what the mushroom told him when he asked, “Am I doing the right thing?”
