Nothing comes unannounced, but many can miss the announcement. So it's very important to actually listen to your own intuition rather than driving through it.

More quotes by Terence McKenna
It's meanings that we need to coax into our lives.
Terence McKenna
Experientially there is only one religion, and it is shamanism and shamanic ecstasy.
Terence McKenna
There has been no progress in 60,000 years in reducing the psychedelic experience to a known quantity. It is as terrifying, as awesome, as ecstatic, as irreducible to us as it was to them.
Terence McKenna
I think really what unites psychedelic people is the faith in the power of the imagination.
Terence McKenna
I think the experience over the past thousand years is that ideology is poisonous. . . . The world seen through the lens of ideology is a very limited world.
Terence McKenna
And psychedelics now, as we de-condition ourselves from the post-medieval world, they are present to hand as tools.
Terence McKenna
The immediate future of man lies in the imagination and in seeking the dimension where the imagination can be expressed.
Terence McKenna
In the way that the 15th Century discovered the New World, the 20th Century discovered the parallel continuum.
Terence McKenna
The mind is a far bigger domain than we ever imagined.
Terence McKenna
We are living in a state of constant scientific revolution. There is not a single area that you can name that is now seen as it was seen a hundred years ago. Nothing is left of the world view of one hundred years ago.
Terence McKenna
The same organizational principles which called us forth into self-reflection have called forth self-reflection out of the planet itself. And the problem then is for us to suspect this, act on our suspicion, and be good detectives, and track down the spirit in its lair. And this is what shamans are doing. They are hunters of spirit.
Terence McKenna
I have nothing but scorn for all weird ideas other than my own.
Terence McKenna
You're immortal as long as you live.
Terence McKenna
Ecstasy is not simply joy. Ecstasy is an emotion of great complexity that hovers almost on the edge of terror sometimes.
Terence McKenna
Cyberspace is the human transition into a mathematical super space where we as a collectivity become optionally a single point of view.
Terence McKenna
What we call three dimensional space, and what we call the imagination actually have a contiguous and continuous transformation from one into the other, ... and THIS is big news!
Terence McKenna
I started out in psychedelic drugs, and people said it was a flight from reality. It still is a flight from reality, but I think reality is now a bit more scary than the drugs we used to fly from it, so long ago.
Terence McKenna
You know what, I'm stoned, and I'm proud.
Terence McKenna
It's a product of the fractal laws that govern the world at an informational level. There is no deeper truth.
Terence McKenna
We are part of a symbiotic relationship with something which disguises itself as an extra-terrestrial invasion so as not to alarm us.
Terence McKenna
