Eros and the Eschaton with Terence McKenna (2 of 2)

In 1994 Terence McKenna gave a lecture at Kane Hall at the University of Washington in Seattle. He was brought to Seattle by KCMU's Public Affair's Director Jay Weidner, who encouraged Terence to let his hair down in the speech. Many have said that this was Terence McKenna's best talk ever. Listen and see if you agree.

Tel was peerless. Of those asking Big Questions today i rate David Wilcock & Jay Weidner. Jay requires a good interviewer foregoing the temptation to engage him idly in comparatively trivial matters about which any social commentator worth their salt can blather. He's as brilliant as they come IF allowed to get into his stride in areas where few can even conceive of the right questions to ask never mind reflect so profoundly thereupon

if i ever tire of Terence McKenna tho, i'll've tired of Life

I had the great privilege to know Terence personally and I am once again amazed by the gift his mind brings to this time. Those of us on the edge (with the best view) have travelled the road not travelled and have remained on the fringe of the empire which now crumbles with a trembling earth. I am forever filled with gratitude for the plant spirit medicine and the clarity of the ancient perennial wisdom that transcends this short-lived materialist culture... Fear cannot survive the dance

@aumdancer you are a privileged person indeed to have known the late McKenna he was a wise and enlightened being. Amongst the negative wave of events in recent history the philosophy of men such as McKenna shines out like a beacon tearing through the void of hopelessness. Who else would you recommend? I am on a journey of discovery seeking truth.

@aumdancer2012- very poetic...although, I DON'T INDULGE IN THE 'MEDICINE,your last comment to my way of thinking is very true~

Our culture that is currently in session I believe to be the reason why so many people are maladjusted and "depressed". Its seems unnatural to be a team player in the rat race whose value system is as superficial as it gets. When has it become ok for our youth, the most impressionable and susceptible to social trends such as getting botox and posing sensually for popular magazines. Were losing the plot. No wonder why people turn to "religion" to fill the void, caused by a lack of TRUTH.

I thought for a second this was a video recording of this audio lecture, what a treat that would be. You'd think someone would have/should have had a film camera on and not just an audio recording piece. This is one of McKennas greatest talks IMO.
