Terence Mckenna - Schizophrenia and the Imagination

[Cam3210]

This is his best video. Revolutionary.

[wolfboy714]

anyone who fights on mckenna vids are all wrong. -.- how dare you all show diversity through the notion of egoism when he speaks, even if you defend what is right, just speaking is making it worse. LOOSE THE EGO!

Thanks for the kind sharing*

I love how a guy like this can achieve such status for basically spouting pseudoscience. Then all the workhorse scientists who do work that actually benefits the human race get threatened by animal rights fanatics or marginalized.

[Cam3210]

Actually listen to what he's saying. He doesn't claim to be scientific. He is against ideology, against the dehumanisation that is placed upon us by culture, it's clear to even the average tool that we live in a consumer culture that serves to promote mediocrity. You want evidence? Turn on your television and the first program you see is either an advertisement or something like X factor. This is what he was against.

[DeusEbrius]

This is a perfect summary of things I've been thinking lately... I especially like his statement about applauding those he sees deviating from being completely acceptable to western culture. It seems that, in order to return to this archaic lifestyle, we ought to enter a never ending PARTY HARD MODE, get high, fuck on the floor, and do anything else that seems like it would end in instant pleasure.

[BenjaPedersen]

Needs more hypnotic effect.

[purityundone]

sounds just like music echoing through the tenth dimension...

Wow! Simply wow. This lecture is the best thing I have heard so far. Him alone has changed my way of thinking for ever. In a pure and good way. Terence is eternal. His thinking will be with us for a very, very long time. Just as the pyramid still are.

[SilentBud420]

we are all eternal

[Videofrigate69]

I am not so sure we are eternal. It would be cool to be eternal though.

[Videofrigate69]

His analogy with shamans and schizophrenics is correct. Many traditional Native American shamans were considered "touched" when they exhibited behavior, which we in the contemporary mainstream western world, would consider schizophrenic.

[theparadox813]

Absolutely phenomenal lecture. A true THANK YOU for posting.

[seattle94]

where was the clip taken...what is the name of that film?

[KalebRossKaighn]

Renegade. Its a clip of when the main character takes peyote.

[richidpraah]

[BMXER1987]

this man is so articulate he could make lectures about racist ideas and i would follow like a sheep lol great video he is soooooo amazing

[marcus0878]

cause you naive

[BMXER1987]

Your entire sentence structure is wrong, its "because" not "cause" unless there is an appostrophe in front. Also it should be "your" not "you". So please correct your grammar before you comment on a comment that was only fucking intended to show how amazing i think Terence McKenna is, not ment to be take seriously. Your naive for not realising that fact... SO FUCK OFF CUNT!!! ps Terence McKenna rules.

[DeusEbrius]

For a grammar nazi, you certainly have shitty grammar and punctuation. Whatever though; chill out man. Smoke a joint.
