The early approach with psychedelics was the correct one. This is the notion that intelligent, thoughtful people should take psychedelics and try and understand what's going on. Not groups of prisoners, not graduate students, but mature, intelligent people need to share their experiences. It's too early for a science. What ...

I don't think that mass drug taking is a good idea.

Such people would perform for our culture some of the cultural functions that shamans...

Neurosis & Initiation
Neurosis and initiation are the same thing, except that neurosis stops short of apotheosis, and the tremendous forces that mould all life are incysted - short-circuited and turned poisonous. Psychoanalysis transforms the false ego symbols and exteriorises them into false social symbols; it is a confusion of conformity and c...

Magickal Process of Awakening the Hidden Self
All the forms of love, suffering and folly, he seeks himself; he consumes in himself all poisons, in order to retain only the quintessences... Thus he attains the unknown; and when, at the point of madness, he finishes by losing the intelligence of his visions, he has beheld them!

The Tantric is not obsessed by the will-to-die. It is a difficult business, no doubt, to get any fun out of existence; but at least it is not impossible.
