Profundity of LSD

[mushroomagical]

LSD has not really changed my world view, as the man in the video says. Rather, LSD has helped me refine my world view in a way that brings some sort of clarity to the chaos.

[Andreaswilhelm1]

does everyone know the song that is played off the background the hippys?

[Tengent]

Acid so far has only made the world around me weird and given me intense feelings of empathy. We'll see what happens when I trip in the woods..

[mickmos]

Can someone please tell me what documentary this is from??

Thanks, peace

[OrangeSunshine2]

Why not keep the little animals alive?

[myrkaaaaa]

i like how the video says that it shook the society.

shouldnt that be good? change, and LSD brought "the summer of love" and why the hell would timothy labeled the most dangerous man.

this is bull. the government is bull.

drop acid not bombs

[The1Benji]

Ohhh... :)

[buckfushes]

LSD is amazing! But Tim Leary was a snake. He abused his intelligence stomping around the country selling consciousness expansion saying "Follow Me," instead of

LEARN from EVERYONE FOLLOW NO-ONE.

[Katanajoe7]

haha, someone reads hunter s thompson

[MrBaebel]

@Katanajoe7 : Hunter 4 ever!!

[2007niko2007]

but without him, not many people would have experianced it. which i think everyone should experiance at least once in their life

[thechangingcolors]

@buckfushes im not sure about that. i wasnt alive in the 60's but wasnt the whole "turn on tune in and drop out" thing kind of promoting the idea of doing what you want to do and listening to your self and all?

[cyn33667]

Dr. Ralph Metzner is my fathers cousin, go figure that shit out, i was watching this the other day on the tele. Yes most of my family are Scientist and Professors. i got all these family members that i never heard from or talked too but yet i see them on Television doing interviews???

[MrM0j0Risin666]

LSD places you in a suggestive frame of mind and the ego is notably reduced in its typical range. That isn't exactly what I'd call "enlightenment" but an interesting drug despite.

[ood2112]

my "trips" have always been enlightening. But now married, with child, mortgage payment and dead end job. I don't think I could handle the enlightenment of my miserable existence.

[toxicity0489]

do it, just do it

[1960jack]

Man! that is one of the funniest comments I have read on you tube in a long time. Hopefully your life will get more

enlightened! 420?

[ood2112]

Oh hell yes 420!

[plutoplatters]

well put.

[pablocool159]

Well now I HAVE to take some LSD.

[toxicity0489]

you always had to

[highervis]

Damn that is fucked up, who are the they that did this to you?

[862431]

thanks for sharing

[beowulven]

As the TV told me when I was a kid: KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

[beowulven]

LSD, famously "sleals your face"; washes away the baloney you thought was real and makes things pure and true. Real true, not church true.

PS: I love black metal, hate The Dead, hate Phish.

[Baculus]

@beowulven That's lame.

[apascottevil]

L has opened my eyes to the world we live in without a doubt all for the better. It really all depends on the type of person you are and the type of mind set you have. If you are negative in your everyday life why would Lsd make it any different. ?

[blessiththechily]

@apascottevil it opens your eyes to make you realize why being negative is a bad way to live, and to embrace positivity. we all are a little negative sometimes, even without meaning to be.

[brilliantone909]

i guess if u try it once, u can get a sense of "high" years later without even touching it.

[makingsense53]

Oh you mean "freebies"? That is what a friend of mine who turned me on said about flashbacks. I've done LSD and mushrooms a number of times throughout my life. I'm now 53 and I have never had a flashback, I mean a freebie. Peace.

[hempartist420]

go acid

[coolguy1028]

Thats why you don't take acid when you are depressed and shit. Thats called being dumb don't blame it on acid.

[reverendjeremiah]

This video is right, I was never the same after trying it. I saw the world in a completely different light.

[Buggy2222]

doing LSD will make you cry with joy

[2old4school]

Yes you may change...for better!!

[ElCaza89]

hey man...whats the name of the tv show??....i want to watch it all........thankss

[sherlockfury]

the last line is bs. ive done lsd and am not diff at all. I didnt even have anything revealed or changed. It was strange but def not life changing

[JimB667]

It can be.

[ewhi1]

yeah u don't notice it, but your brain does change. Its not as if your brain says, "Hey you took acid now I think differently". It just happens.

[friend120]

it did with me, its not like ur on a trip 24/7its just small things, everything seems different to me now, i cant explain it, its just different

[ladollyvita]

maybe what you got wasn't really acid.

or, you a had a bad trip.

[11Frodo11]

no, i totally know what friend120 is talking about. to a "normal" person, the reality i, myself, experience post-LSD-experience would be quite a trip to them, seeing as how they are not familiar to it. that's all a trip is: altercation of perceptions, synesthesia (my favorite part). something happens over time where your sense of things just changes. it took about a half a year after my first experience before i could notice anything different. it changes with time and with other experiences.

[DangerousBastard]

I should also add that I do think that some people are simply too sensitive for acid. The benefits that are possible from the use of LSD and other hallucinogens are also obtainable thru meditation and yoga.

[DangerousBastard]

LSD can change a worldview. I find that psychedelics dont add, they subtract. Meaning they dont really give you anything you didnt already have inside you, they just remove mindsets and belief systems and contrived bullshit that may be holding you down. They "squeegy your third eye clean". That is mind-blowingly profound. No ego can compete with it. But it is an experience to be respected, and never to be entered into lightly.

[LivengoodTodd]

We should give LSD to the prisoners at Club Gitmo.

[LilliePuttin]

I was 18. There was so much change during that time. I don't know about acid, but the world and many of us were changed by the times. The music was went through profound changes, people began to think in a different light. Life was a rush in itself. I never tried acid, although I knew some who did and went on to lead ordinary lives. I also know a couple who didn't fare so well from it. One is still a mental, the other is dead.

[japidon87]

the great lsd was called vietnan and the need for creation of the soul.

[japidon87]

IT WAS A POLITICAL CONSCIENCE and a artistic conscience that changed the 60´s,not a pill, as this american bourgouise media wants to make the world believe today.Stupid dominant class conclusion.LSD maybe helped in a deeper conscience of the inner self,but it was the soul,not a cia´s drug that wrote down 20th century history

[msimon6808]

Nope,

The Trots all wanted people to believe it was political.

People saw that the world was more than surfaces. That changed everything.

The day of the Trots has past. People are still into exploring consciousness.

[dynamoehummm]

Dominant class conclusion? I don't understand. As you speak of consciencness, politically and artistically, and inner self etc., what were your experiences personally like during that time and how did LSD affect your personal self...? I spent my young years from 68-72 or so with artists in the woods but i was but a toddler. Been to many but not enough dead shows.

[dynamoehummm]

(Japidon87 con't)I 'tried' LSD. How many times? I dunno maybe 40. I never 'did' acid but it sure worked the hell outta me! So I love that time, know much of it, but wasn't In it. So I can't say what exactly caused the Change, the Shift. I couldn't be that bold. But I listen alot to those like yourself who were. And know. Because at 40 I skirted it.

[dynamoehummm]

(con't) But I'm yabberin Japidon87.. However thank god I'm not like say 20 years old, never tripped, and talkin out my ass! Imagine! So I'm sorry I'd really like your first hand feelings, you surely having experienced it...

[noooskill]

i would anything to experience the summer of love.. unfortunetaly, i was born very very late..

[alicebby]

Oh, i know!

The summer of love would have been so amazing.

I was also born very very late unfourtanley :[

[billysandals]

and to think dmt is more illegal than meth.

[joshpembers]

My 4 LSD experiences (or was it 5?) in the 60s (including the "Summer of Love") were great! And, at that time, it was considered mind expanding.

If the USA had (a) a "draft", and (b) LSD rampant on the universities ... we could once again see the college generation stand up and tell our government to F**k Off and/or "Hell no, we won't go". Iraq, Vietnam, no difference whatsoever.

[msimon6808]

I think the liberation of Iraq is going to stick.

[Rustyshackleford08]

Liberation?? LOL yeah ok.

[oversoulseven7]

I was born 40 years late. I wish I could have lived these times.

[alicebby]

i was born in 1991, so i was born late too :[

I really,really wish i could have lived these times too!

[crashing78]

You take it you , you have a trip and it is over. Any insight or new conciousness was already there and available.

Except for the health expenses and fried brains the government would be more secure if people took acid all the time. They would talk endlessly about how things could be and never do anything.

[DangerousBastard]

Society needs to evolve and quit being a bunch of assholes. Thats blunt, but true! ;-) I prefer shrooms myself, but the psychedelic experience is the most profound thing in the world. It will deprogram all social/religious/political mindsets and dogmas, and blow your mind wide open. That's why its dangerous from the "establishment" point of view.

[chimpanzee88]

lol santos and what r u an LSD hippie thats forty years late :> ?? Peace to all ganjasmokers around the world :]

[santos1991w]

jesuss is everyone blind they made lsd illegal because it would end the society that the government wants to be in control of and because people would legislate their own morality instead of following everybody else.

its too bad the sixties are gone.. now the only majority of the people that drop acid and smoke mj are dumb fucking destructive metal heads and dumb fuckin rappers who have an ego the size of the universe thinkin they so fly

[capapples]

rappers do lsd? where the hell are you from?

[Hedsta]

The most dangerous man in America, and possibly the world, is George W Bush - God Bless America.

[noizyme]

most dangerous man in america? wasn't manson around this time influencing people to kill for the sake of some "family?" get a life, media. try some out, and stop falsely reporting it.

[LilliePuttin]

yes, and didn't manson like acid?

pretty profound, huh.

[otacon451]

yes, illogical argument?

[eerieyellowlights]

Yeah WTF at cpalmist

[Derek556]

cpalmist u have no idea what you are talking about.stfu

[cpalmist]

Dang! We produce it in our brains anyway, albeit in very small quantities

[danielpresberger]

Grace Slick ist ein bisschen dompel (dödelig)

[slackdave]

The most dangerous man in America.. Terrible how narrow minded that is. No desire to let society evolve..
