The fungal-fantastical. Emerging from their axial homes, fungi are beginning to be understood as nutrients to the human consciousness and ecological sustainability. Paul explores mycology and compels support for your own good nature and our fungal allies. This is the first in a collaboration of Louie Schwartzberg of Blacklight films (Movingart.tv) and Paul Stamets of Fungi Perfecti (fungi.com). More to come!

    Part 3 : "If i die trying and i am inadequate to the task to make a course change in the evolution of this planet, ok i tried, the fact is i tried. How many people are not trying? If you knew that every breath you took, could save hundreds of lives in the future, how do you walk down this path of knowledge, wouldn't you run down that path of knowledge as fast as you could?

    I'm trying too Paul,

    I quit my job and started making eye-opening and consciousness-expanding videos and doing some freelance work on the side to be able to pay the bills.

    Now after only 6 months my channel has over 130 thousand views. It reminds me of a Terence McKenna quote:

    "Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up."

    Beautifully done! Pauls words are as pertinent today as the day he said this. The psilocybin mushroom speaks and its warning us of our impendind doom while at the same time it shows us the irreplaceable beauty of a natural world that human greed and ignorance are destroying. Our self importance and ignorance has brought us not only to destroy First Nations People who lived here but to bring carnage to that which sustains all life, nature. I am in total sympathy to Paul's message. Bless him!
