We don't have to look far for miracles because they're all around us. Everything is astonishing. The universe on it's surface is alive with mystery.

You are an explorer, and you represent our species, and the greatest good you can do is to bring back a new idea, because our world is endangered by the absence of good ideas. Our world is in crisis because of the absence of consciousness.
Terence McKenna

It is curious that what these psychedelics do, on a scale of a community, is they release new ideas. . . . And that this is how culture moves forward. That culture is a phenomenon dependent on the generation of ideas, plans, notions, connections. So this is precisely what these compounds are doing.

We are like coral animals in a vast reef of excreted technological material that is wired for solid state data transfer.
