i never made it past max Q and it was horrible. i couldnt let go because i kept feeling like i stopped breathing. i feared if i let go i might stop breathing and die.
Please consider putting the HiRes pics on a page & linking them in the infobox. For the psychedelic technphobe, a video (short?) on how you create the pics would be wonderful. 🧡🧡🧡
@@PeterBilland Peter Billand you are welcome to join the discord in the description and I can show you personally how it works via the share screen feature in discord ^^. Also later once I have a good microphone I will definitely make a video about this since a few others have also asked for this. I can also give you the images in our discord easily, because I don't know which ones would be to your liking to upload on a website. (I have many)
I think it would be better to propagate real images of Mr.McKenna. I actually don't like these AI images. He is gone. His true image is easily out there... I would hope this doesn't replace the real thing in an upsetting way
Always look for the middle man that separates a thing from its truth. A priest to go to God. An AI image instead of the real image which is a click away. A grocery store to get vegetation. Etc. And look out for commenters that just want the last word and don't actually bring any content or new ideas forward. Trolls.
@@Paralelalamb hey dipshit, i found a quote from mckenna. You need to hear it because you are ignorant and stupid and you should know Mckenna was a huge advocate on computer, internet, websites, VR, And AI Technology.
I think these references could give you a clue on how he viewed sex. ''Well, um, orgasm is an interesting phenomenon. First of all, it’s not necessary, uh, and it’s not expressed in lower animals. sex, as you descend the animal phylogeny, becomes more and more mechanical, less and less intimate. You know, finally, it’s all about eggs that are deposited somewhere and then males come along and fertilize them and there’s not even contiguous activity by male and female. So then what is it that, as animal complexity increases, there’s this concentration on this bust of boundary-dissolving pleasure in the central nervous system. I don’t exactly understand what the function is there. Obviously we’re all interested in sex, but are we interested in sex because we pursue orgasm and the, you know, is that the payoff? Couldn’t you build in a more gentle gradient of interest based on biology which must be happening with these other animals? Uh, there’s a book to be written about all this. I have all the questions; I just don’t have any of the answers. I can see that sexuality is related to consciousness and to the psychedelic state. But I can't and I’ve thought about it for years and years, but I just haven’t gotten anywhere. When you have sex on psychedelics, you know, there’s an incredible enhancement and reciprocal feedback into that.'' --TM, 1994 ''And I had one trip where the - and often it’s very erotic, although I’m not sure that’s the word. But it’s something, it’s almost like sex is the surface of something of which this is the volume. And I’m a great fan of sex. I don’t mean to denigrate it. I mean to raise DMT to a very high status.'' --TM, Starwood XIV Festival, Brushwood Folklore Center, Sherman, New York, 1994 ‘’Questioner: One of the questions was, what is the role of humor - well not in the psychedelic experience, I think that’s kind of obvious - with shamanic experience, but that purview on life, which is pre-religious, so to speak, institutional religious. What is the flavor of the life when people are so close to the earth and the plants, and is that something that you are inviting people to consider these days, in 1996 now, as a way for us to open up toward the transcendental object? TM: Well, I’m not sure I follow the entire question but I’ll try a yes. Yes. Questioner: Do you want me to rephrase it? TM: No, Let me take a stab at it. Two human activities seem to me pretty much to be outside of history. I mean, one is orgasm and the other is laughter. And they are physiological responses to circumstance that are universal. We do it no differently if we’re French or Armenian or whatever, and it breaks us out of culture for a moment, and so laughter, I think, is really the shaman’s greatest tool. That’s why the shaman is always associated with the Trickster, and in the clinches, meaning when somebody’s dying or childbirth or snakebite or something, the shaman is a very serious and highly functional caregiver and technician but how the shaman lives with his people is as a clown and a gadfly and a critic and the guy who always says, well, don’t you think we should think again or how about this or how about that and I think that’’ -- TM New York New York 1996 ‘’Well tantra, for instance, that's what tantra means, is the shortcut path. And, uh, certainly, uh, they might be on the right track. Sexuality, orgasm, these things do have tryptamine-esque qualities to them’’ - TM Institute for the Study of Consciousness, Berkeley, California 1982 ‘’Then someone asked about tantra and the contrast between the imaginative internalized invocation of the anima or the animus, depending on your own sex- uality, and that contrasted with something which actually happens between two people. We didn’t talk that much about the concept of the Chemical Wedding or the alchemical marriage, but this is the Western resonance to the Eastern idea of tantra and it is the idea that sexual energy, being the rawest and most accessible energy to the organism, can be channeled into a higher spirituality. It’s entirely so, the problem is that of all paths this is probably fraught with the greatest difficulty because sexuality is such a debased coinage in the modern world. In other words, you have to make your way with great care and great purity of intent into this. In Eastern tantra that is actually practiced in this physical manner there is usually the admonition that you should have no at- tachment to your tantrica, that the relationship should be entirely given over to the technical details of this union, and of course it has to do with the forestalling of orgasm and the raising of energy within the organism. In the Chemical Wedding, in the alchemical marriage, due honor is given to the importance and uniqueness of the other person. In other words, it isn’t the idea of the temple prostitute who serves as the vessel for this process, but there’s actually an effort to keep individual identities and individual dignity in some sense together. The higher up the mountain you go the steeper it becomes, and when you begin to scale the heights of alchemical or tantric sexuality the fall back into the nigredo can be shocking indeed. That’s just an admonition, it’s not designed to scare you off, it’s just to say that in an age as sexually obsessed as our own, you have to, as the I Ching says, “Inquire of the oracle once again if you have purity of intent.” --TM Wetlands Preserve, New York 1998
@@queenieqt2033 First of all, you need to have life to have sex, so it's the other way around. Second, I'm not sure if life is important. I think that's just an idea hardwired in our brains. But even if you were right, I'm not sure if that explains anything. Shouldn't he be equally excited about eating, breathing, the sun, the constants of physics etc? Clearly he is more interested in how sex feels to him.
Because... I have a hard time seeing myself objectively.. like I don't recognize myself from the profile view cuz I always look straight ahead into the mirror... metaphorically... analogic. How I am, is hard to see to me
@@Paralelalamb You can upload your own image and give that URL to the AI and write inputs to add whatever you wish to your image. So in short yea you can.
Thank you for being part of the human awakening...💓🍃
Where are you from
@@kevinfoley6051 my true deep down self, frankly don't know...
Just Terence's voice with no background music, it hits you even harder!
"A direct personal relationship with the mystery." I like that. I always have.
I was going to title this video that actually ^^ but then I changed my mind.
It’s just like dark side of the moon when the song breaks from chaos into beauty
Terrance will be as familiar as all giant philosophers,
*Terence 😂
I really love these art pics of Terence
7:26 audio spike, be aware if you have headphones or the speaker is loud
This images are amazing
Thanks infinite flow - and great work with the AI image as well!
Thank you Pavlos Konstantinidis 😊❤
Terence calming my worried mind :)
Mine too MIO
Terence is the free drug, without side effects :)
Thank you all and love you. Find the others!
Terence❤
I love this one thanks
Love this channel / t McKenna
@Infinite Flow Wouldn't you say that there is an increase in McKenna uploads lately? Thanks for this one, thank you so much!
And thats 2 videos in a row that ended in the middle.of the most interesting part
a medium characterized by smoothness, stillness
It’s sad that most people
Will never know what he’s talking about.
i never made it past max Q and it was horrible. i couldnt let go because i kept feeling like i stopped breathing. i feared if i let go i might stop breathing and die.
Amazing leacture! Are you using Midjourney for images? They look so awesome and they also fit the psychedelic lectures by Mckenna .
Thank you Memento Mori, yea I am using Midjourney for the images. I'm glad that you like them ^^
