Neurochemistry, Consciousness & Ethnobotany with Dennis McKenna
- Thursday, November 4, 2021
- 6:00 PM 7:40 PM
There’s few people who have had a career in psychedelics as illustrious as Dennis McKenna. Dennis & his older brother Terence McKenna were pioneers in the study of ayahuasca and magic mushrooms and their traditional uses. Their pseudonymous publication, Psilocybin: Magic Mushroom Growers Guide (And/Or Press, 1975) was influential in bringing psilocybin mushrooms onto the radar screen of global culture. Their work prompted deeper investigations into the nature of the cosmos, evolution, and consciousness itself. For all the advancements in science and technology, one of the greatest mysteries of all continues to be our own minds. How might psychedelics provide insight into who we are, how we operate, and our greater role within the ecosystem of the planet? Will there ever be a point at which science (i.e. materialism) can explain everything or are there parts of who we are that will always be metaphysical, beyond comprehension? We talk to Dennis McKenna about all this and more in our upcoming webinar.
