[shaolinfingajab]

Best listened to on LSD trust me :)

[reallyfullofmyself]

oh this is just....well..this is effin IT! The message of all messages.. love it sooo much. Must have heard it a million times now, and it still sends me chills all over. epic, Classic..beyond description!

[CoSmIcSoUpCoUp]

Time to evolve you fucking muppets!

[kevishnan]

gods live a little laugh alot love life

[rspeedcontrol]

Boy, can't that guy talk!

[Artemis458]

heheh always liked this one, such an ususual idea, and it really takes you to another place

[tomstickland]

Great track. McKenna talks a load of tosh though.

[shaolinfingajab]

@tomstickland Makes more sense if your tripping...Thats what this tune is all about...I dont do trips anymore...did a few times in the early 90's when this came out...

[martin3031]

@tomstickland insulting someone whom you dont understand is "tosh".

[NagualElias]

the other principle technique is dreaming. On the dream plane you have access to all time, gods, spirits, ways of knowledge and it can be utilized.

[meagain612]

someone needs to make a lyrics video... i started typing down the lyrics, but only got to 5:38 :)

[Jyotirveda2]

@meagain612 See: deoxy.org/t_re-evo.htm, it's all there. You can also google "re-evolution terence mckenna".

[petemanning1975]

Utter Wibble.

[realityexplorations]

ah been looking for this one

[felipedu1969]

Excelente canción, aun tengo el vinilo

[stokes237]

is it me or does this guy talking realy sound quite like John Malcovich???

[TheRealD4VID]

Whatever logic he spouts, was mashed with psychobabble...thus generally being unintelligible IMHO. But kudos to those insightful individuals savouring his words...

[davidbwn]

I have been looking for this for a very long time. OMG YOUTUBE you have grown from what you was 5 yrs ago

[ThelemicMagick]

@davidbwn

Apart from some level of censorship, YouTube could and should be regarded in relation to Wittgenstein's Tractatus.

The development of intercultural/-social media has ''risen outside, above, beyond the dimensions of ordinary space, time, and casuistry" by enhancing ever broader growing exchange of Ideas (itself being a creating force).

A development that should be, and is, nourished.

"Sex in uno per nomen Septem in uno... Ararita"

[nikamota]

"If the truth can be told so as to be understood,it will be believed"

This truth involves 9/11 and 7/7 as well. Ta much!!

[realityexplorations]

@nikamota those ae only aspects of a truth. ultimate truth is knowing the self and how that effects and works with all other things and beings, nothing is seperate nothing works in isolation

[nikamota]

@realityexplorations I don't disagree with you.

[realityexplorations]

@nikamota well if somthing worked in total isolation, how would you be awear of it? or how could you be awear of it? in truth you could not, in effect anything that works in total isolation does not exist in our universe. other wise it would in effect influence some part of that universe, even things we are not consious of effect us, just because we are not awear of it does not mean it does not exist.

[realityexplorations]

@nikamota sorry i read it ass i dissagree with you lol. im tierd was a very late night -morning

[nikamota]

@realityexplorations Well we all get tired.

[nikamota]

We Human Beings are at last waking up and not a moment too soon!

Terence was exactly correct!

[zhulia]

I wish his voice was louder than the music. still good.

[ScreamingEggNotion]

best track the shamen ever did imho...

[Capt1nSolo]

Aye, it's open here ! :)

NAMASTE'

[permaveg]

Music that opens the hidden doors, you know, the ones that the church, the controlling media, the mass are all in denial of, never the less are there for all to enter, if we seek it. Mc.kenna R.I.P.

[omegapoint444]

Let your consciousness learn & expand~

[TheRoganStash]

nice. :)

[RedSuit1]

This music is so boss.

[TheUnion5]

Check out:

Spacetime Continuum - Alien Dreamtime

with Terence McKenna, speaking about DMT.

[dmj481]

Purple, Indigo, Turquoise

[sikeat80]

boss drum was the first album i bought on cassette. i used to love this track and still remember most of the words haha! i wonder what influence listening to this had on the development of my young mind!

[iuyklklk]

OH MY GOD i remember listening to this on tape on my walkman when i was 15.

[19stretch72]

just listen to that beautiful intro on the arp 2600, the waffle in the background is purely incidental. sends one into a trance at 6:40s. illegal substances not required on this one!

[AlexPxr8]

This was the best of all the tracks that featured TMcK - and I think the first.  After this, ten thousand and one bad psy trance tracks sampled Terence McKenna, it must surely now rank #1 in all cardinal sins of trance production....

[3rdseal]

i truly love the instrumental version off of "different drum"

[jtdecres]

lose the bad music

[levo75]

It's a song by "The Shamen"

Goddamn you're a dull witted chump.

[jtdecres]

im trying to listen to mckenna speak and its drowned out by the music.. practically every video of his on youtube is like this

[levo75]

There are collections of lectures by terence mckenna on thepiratebay. Don't forget to seed.

[jtdecres]

thank you

[superdiza]

yea, it's a bad mix. But

i think that the point here is the music, being augmented by the Shaman, not the other way around.

A very cool tribute, though.

[Chelonia]

A true shaman does not call himself such.

[Roglundo]

get out of here, you are as your are. A shaman above all others would know what he truly is. If you mean his definition of it would differ to the point of meaning a different thing than I think you're just nitpicking.

[Eldritchard]

yup, correct a shaman calls himself a shaman, not a such.

[AngelArtists]

My god....so relevant now!!!!!!!!!

[omegaamigo444]

These are omega times(the end of an era rather than of everything)omega times-the mayan calender ends on dec21st 2012 only as its the end of a significant period of time and the start of a new era the more we raise our conciousness the more we can expect to access a new level of awareness the start of a golden age

[Anamihangout]

Ambience, Magical

[mainsqueeze1977]

Ah, the mumbo-jumbo track on the album.

[nikamota]

Whatever you think of the message, this was a top 5 hit in the UK singles charts! I mean,how COOL was THAT?

Can you imagine the listeners on the Radio 1 chart show listening to this? They would be bewildered by what is being said.

Just as you were...

Listen to what Mckenna is saying in this track,his words are very visual it causes you to start imagining,and what he is saying is that we will become more aware of our environment,of ourselves and what our role is as human beings.This is from 1992

[mainsqueeze1977]

Sure, they would be bewildered. I just don't agree with what the words are saying, but I agree that they are nice to listen to which probably part of the appeal. And I didn't know that this was a singles hit. Was it really?

[nikamota]

I think it was feb 93 they released Re.Ev as a limited single.Entered the UK charts at no 5..and then disappeared again..

[willibaldcornfed]

The Boss Drum album has so many fantastic tracks but this is the exception. McKenna's words approach the 'so bad its good' level.

[luttrellwalker]

Become part of this Gaian Supermind. I mean I think it's fairly profound, it's fairly Apocalyptic. History is ending. I mean we are to be the generation that witnesses the Revelation of the purpose of the Cosmos. History is the shock wave of the Eschaton.

[luttrellwalker]

History is the shock wave of Eschatology. And what this means for those of us who will live through this transition into Hyperspace is that we will be privileged to see the greatest release of Concressed Change probably since the birth of the Universe.

[luttrellwalker]

The twentieth Century is the shutter that announces the approaching Cataracts of Time over which our Species and the destiny of this Planet is about to be swept.

[luttrellwalker]

"If the truth can be told so as to be understood it will be believed".

[luttrellwalker]

The emphasis in House music and rave culture on physiologically compatible rhythms, and this sort of thing, is really the re- discovery of the art of Natural Magic with sound.

[luttrellwalker]

That sound, properly understood, especially percussive sound, can actually change neurological states, and large groups of people getting together in the presence of this kind of music

[luttrellwalker]

are creating a telepathic community, a bonding, that hopefully will be strong enough to carry the Vision out into the main stream of Society.

[luttrellwalker]

I think the Youth culture that is emerging in the nineties is an End of the Millennium culture that is actually summing up Western Civilisation,

[luttrellwalker]

and pointing us in an entirely different direction; that we are going to arrive in the Third Millennium in the middle of an Archaic revival which will mean a revival of these physiologically empowering rhythm signatures, a new Art, a new Social Vision, a new relationship to Nature, to Feminism, to Ego.

[luttrellwalker]

All of these things are taking hold, and not a Moment too Soon.

[omoyu]

thank you soooo much. this song changed my life in high school. he speaks of such intense insight... may we all embrace the mystery we are!

[123klf]

If Time doesnt exist 2012 could be right now

[Stev1ed]

Roll on 2012 people!

[stokie1999999]

whats happerning in 2012 ?

[mainsqueeze1977]

Nothing special. But some people think it's the end of the world.

[alliz1978]

Finally found this tune after years of searching!! God this is good!!

xx

[halfprice2]

i can't stand these types of videos. this is a video sharing site!

[GAZZA251170]

Listened to this on a walkman back in the day whilst on a flight back from Munich...After spending a week there with food poisining feely pretty trippy after not eating for a week & being on a plane flight very very surreal!!!

[MetaphysicalSciences]

This video/ausio is really interesting, it was a pleasure to listen to!-Adrienne

[tcquiltys]

great tune

[mikroberts]

A course in micracles is a spiritual tool to help us "change our mind about our mind"

[wuchi99]

Great track. The world needs a radical shift in consciousness. Dont wait until 2012 change YOUR consciousness now. Terence changed his with help from the plant kingdom ;)

Fantastic stuff!

[secondsight131]

Shamen forever. R.I.P Terence

[Vegama]

I don't care much for McKenna's tone of voice here. His regular Leeeectuuuure vooooiicee iiiss muuuuuch betteeer you see?

[obviousworld]

right on.

[sparklebtt]

It makes sense. It feels right. The end of the world is coming....but the world that is ending is the world as we KNOW IT AT THIS TIME.

[tofff64]

I had no difficulty at all perceiving it all, all in all, how it is, so the vid is absolutely okay. Thanks!

[nikamota]

"If the truth can be told so as to be understood,it WILL be believed"

[0x777]

The problem is, lies, if told convincingly, have the same result.

[nikamota]

There are no truths in what you may be talking about that can be understood by anyone,lies create more questions and more questions that do not give a straightforward answer when there should be one.

[loversandmystics]

yep. the mix is bad... the music should be the background.

[Jyotirveda2]

The mix was made by both The Shamen and Terence McKenna, they decided upon the loudness of the music and the voice. I hate the gay drum machine of this song, but anyway, it's a nice rap by Terence, written specifically for the song.

[RioMan123]

I have to agree somewhat about the music- it's set at too high a volumn and made it a strain to listen to the lecture.

[Nutshuckle]

It's not a modern song, this is from the early ninetees, but I wouldn't call it infantile jingles. And there are loads of lectures by Terence without the music, or different music, so if you don't like this one, just keep on searching.

[jkfrancis]

Loose the shit music. Just let the man speak. It doesn't need the infantile jingles. That's just an annoying distraction and it detracts from what is a very serious subject.

[dragonkloud]

I agree it is a distration. Music, imo, is meant to enhance his message and meaning not to detract from it. I enjoyed this.

[Vegama]

Agreed. The Shamen are not Shpongle.

[Jyotirveda2]

I like Shpongle much more too. But it's not fair to compare the two: the technology has improved a lot in the past 15 (!) years. Still, there may have never been a Shpongle had there not been The Shamen.

[Roq999]

what song is this

[Nutshuckle]

The song is called Re-evolution.

[momtoo]

Who needs moving images in front of the eyes when you have my adorable 6'2" leprechaun weaving the story for images behind the eyes. Love, because love is all there is!!

[goodsirknight]

This is a fantastic upload, absolutely perfect. Terence McKenna - what a visionary

[w0rldpeace]

Terence McKenna is invincible.
