    Robert Jesse is the organiser of the Council on Spiritual Practices (csp.org/about), which aims to shift modernity's awareness and practices with respect to primary religious experience (csp.org/PRE). CSP also encourages people to imagine and develop social contexts to contain such experiences and help them yield lasting benefit.
    Through CSP, Bob and his colleagues initiated a study, conducted at Johns Hopkins csp.org/psilocybin/ and reported around the world, of the psycho-spiritual effects of Psilocybin in healthy volunteers (csp.org/psilocybin). This expands the emphasis in hallucinogen research beyond the medical treatment of ill people to include the betterment of well people, contributing to a science of pro-social development.
    On his home front, Bob is co-convenor of a spiritual community formed around ecstatic dance. His formal training is in engineering. He resides in San Francisco.

      First I listened to the Fresh Air 2018 interview with Michael Pollan. Now I am reading his book. Fascinating. My initial thought is that these drugs may never be widely used in the future -- because most people are only interested in psychedelic drugs for recreational use or oblivion.
      Among all the people I know, only a small fraction have the intellectual or spiritual capacity to pursue any type of transcendent non-dual awareness using these drugs.

    Spoke with Bob recently during the 2022 Horizons Northwest conference. We talked about the Psilocybin Services Program that’s being structured by the OHA(Oregon Health Authority). We both agree that without FDA approval it will be hard to create “legitimized”, liability based insurance covered treatments. This part is critical yet anytime you start asking the FDA for something the result you may want may not be the one you get.

    Brilliantly presented and highly interesting talk. Really good that this sort of serious research is being done somewhere. Comforting as well for those responsible psychedelic users to know they are not alone in their interest and personal development.

      In a nut shell, he's saying the science being done today is precisely aligned with the view on the major religions known by many great sages, scholars, scientists, mystics, philosophers, and theologians as the Perennial philosophy.

      +Jose -- you may benefit from hearing the "Fresh Air" program from 2018. Terry Gross interviewed Michael Pollan on the subject of his book "How to Change Your Mind." Pollan covers some of the same issues that Robert Jesse does in this video, but you would likely find Pollan much more digestible. Robert Jesse has a background in science and engineering and speaks in a manner that probably puts off many people who are not technically oriented. I hope that you find something that will give you better insights into the subject matter.
