Wrong And Inappropriate Use Has Caused Lsd

It Is True That My Discovery Of Lsd Was A Chance Discovery, But It Was The Outcome Of Planned Experiments And These Experiments Took Place In The Framework Of Systematic Pharmaceutical, Chemical Research. It Could Better Be Described As Serendipity. That Means That You Look For Something, You Have A Certain Plan, And Then You Find Something Else, Different, That May Nevertheless Be Useful.

Lsd Should Be Treated As A Sacred Drug And Receive Corresponding Preparation, Preparation Of Quite A Different Kind Than Other Psychotropic Agents. It Is One Kind Of Thing If You Have A Pain-relieving Substance Or Some Euphoriant And (another To) Have An Agent That Engages The Very Essence Of Human Beings, Their Consciousness.

I Share The Belief Of Many Of My Contemporaries That The Spiritual Crisis Pervading All Spheres Of Western Industrial Society Can Be Remedied Only By A Change In Our World View. We Shall Have To Shift From The Materialistic, Dualistic Belief That People And Their Environment Are Separate, Toward A New Consciousness Of An All-encompassing Reality, Which Embraces The Experiencing Ego, A Reality In Which People Feel Their Oneness With Animate Nature And All Of Creation.

In A Dreamlike State, With Eyes Closed (i Found The Daylight Too Unpleasantly Glaring), I Perceived An Uninterrupted Stream Of Fantastic Pictures, Extraordinary Shapes With Intense, Kaleidoscopic Play Of Colors.

By Observing Natural Scientific Discoveries Through A Perception Deepened By Meditation, We Can Develop A New Awareness Of Reality. This Awareness Could Become The Bedrock Of A Spirituality That Is Not Based On The Dogmas Of A Given Religion, But On Insights Into A Higher And Deeper Meaning. I Am Referring To The Ability To Recognize, To Read, And To Understand The Firsthand Revelations.
