Terrance Mckenna said, “Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third storey window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong�. This book was fascinating.
I was curious how he was going to present the "spiritual" side of these experiences. The problem with using the scientific method to try to understand these experiences is that science is completely limited to the physical. So when trying to fit these non physical experiences under the scientific umbrella, some of it just comes across as a stretch. Some things can only be understood through direct experience, not through a measuring device.
