  • Terence McKenna's True Hallucinations is an experimental documentary about the chaos at La Chorrera, the imagination, time, the Logos, belief, hope, madness, and doubt.
    Created by Peter Bergmann, this project is an expansion of ideas first presented in "The Transcendental Object At The End Of Time".
    In 1971, Terence McKenna, along with his brother Dennis and three other companions, ventured by plane, boat, and foot to the paradisical Colombian mission town of La Chorrera, where they hoped to encounter the elusive psychedelic oo-koo-hé. Fate would have it otherwise. Their attention soon turned to the large numbers of Stropharia Cubensis that they lucked upon, and before long, Terence and especially Dennis were formulating the psychopharmacological "experiment at La Chorrera" which would eventually give rise to Terence's expanded Jungian notion of the UFO as human oversoul, and his I Ching based TimeWave Theory which holds, among other things, that history as we know it is accelerating and, in fact, will come to a major concrescence.
    Based on the underground classic book and talking book 'True Hallucinations: Being an Account of the Author's Extraordinary Adventures in the Devil's Paradise', this tale of alchemical understanding is a deep dive into the young minds of the McKenna brothers, and an effort to provide some kind of visual aid and emotional center to a much larger story, with details scattered through hundreds of talks. Featuring unearthed photos and notebook pages which have never been seen by the public since generated in 1971.
    Special Thanks to Dennis McKenna, Klea McKenna, Kathleen Harrison and Stephanie Schmitz, since their contributions of documents, and approval were crucial in making this film a reality.

    Shrooms did wonders in my life. I could remember several years ago, I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Was actually diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges.

      I'm so very happy for you, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.

      Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!

I used psychedelics for a long period of time on a regular basis. Now i'm 33 quit abusing any kind of drug for some years now. I just grew out of it, but one thing i will continue all my life and that is mushrooms. My friends allways used it for fun, for me it has always been different...
    I take high doses alone every now and then, at least two times a year and i think it helps me to be a better person...

    I tripped heavily whilst walking around a huge city on a working Monday. I saw everything differently. I saw how we aggressively keep ourselves in this working and depressing society. I asked myself why don’t we just stop this shit if nobody wants to be doing this. It was so obvious yet so hidden. It made me so sad 😞
    I knew psychedelics would show me this but it was sooooo different when I actually experienced it. I can never un-see the truth now🌏 I am still shocked today about what I saw.

If you’re not happy all you can do is figure out why and do your best to change it. Remember material things only bring happiness for a short time so never think if I had this or that I would be happy. This includes money and people. You have to find it in yourself.

    Thoughtfully speechless as I watch this. Terence is still as impressive and mind blowing to me as he was in 1997 as a junior in high school. Still have my copy of True Hallucinations I poured over back then. A few short years later, I was exploring his timewave zero page on the web...the days of AOL still....and his email was listed, which I, of course, used. I have never been so surprised as I was the day I got a response to my email from Terence! I ended up communicating with him a couple times, just as a fan, and a seeker of knowledge and understanding of this strange existence. I wish I still had them, but starting over in life is something I have had to endure too many times to have held on to much....somehow, not really sure how it's even possible, considering my last 25 years, but I'll always be grateful for him and the way he's spurred my imagination and creativity. Sending love to all ya out there who found themselves here, right now.

    Terence McKenna is the most eloquent speaker I have been fortunate enough to encounter. Despite how much I love this content, I believe thinking too deeply about topics that have no answers, as Terence says; «nobody knows», is the best one way ticket to feeling socially alienated from friends and family. Everyday practicality fluds the cortex of most people, and deep thinking (which i believe psychedelic experiences to be) breaks the dam. Thread carefully friends, knowledge is wonderful and dangerous at the same time. Take it easy, but, take it.

      Blyden I think less than total alienation, since the Green Wave of Cannabis is breaking through old taboos, around the world. Look at Portugal, with the legalization of ALL drugs, and they're still afloat. Magic Mushrooms is legal in Denver, Colorado, and Oregon, I believe. These plants sell themselves, because they open us up to the kind of joyous mindset we lived in as children -- open, and free.
      But they COULD also be used, consciously, in a totally different way--as spiritual sacraments, when paired with spiritual practices, like meditation, dream work, and the like. THAT would be boundary dissolving and revolutionary, helping us to see what is possible in the UN-stoned state.
      These substances COULD help us to become AWARE OF the psychological chains that certain poisonous cultural beliefs and ways have locked us into. For instance--racism would disappear, once all people realize they are literally spirit-beings, basically independent of our mortal coils. We can have these experiences while STRAIGHT as well. Imagine THAT.

The spirit of the creator is what makes us who we are and the creator has an infinite log of everyone who has ever lived. Terrance knew that shrooms were a door to interacting with the universe aka the creator force. Thats why most of us learn great things when we take shrooms. I am always protected any time I interact with an unseen force or "entity" during any kind of trip. We were all put here for a purpose, and Terrance's purpose was to spread us this knowledge.

    I'm sorry, I've been looking for a psychedelic experience since I was 19, I am now 35. All and I mean every single one of my friends who happen to be white have had some sort of experience with shrooms, or lsd, or dmt, or mescaline. I was always met them after the fact because these are things you do not need to do often (apparently). And no one knows where to get it. I live in a predominately mexican and black neighborhood, and the only drugs offered take something from you, weed, coke, heroin, assortment of pills. I have absolutely no interest in those things. I have always wanted to experience my mind without my ego interfering, ego death to the 10th power.
    I dont understand why certain people are completely cut off from this journey, but given everything else thats not good for you physically. Listening to these videos and trying to live vicariously through others experience is really starting to hurt my feelings. This experience and journey should be for everyone.

I saw my father with a top hat on. I felt like I was surrounded by demons and evil faces glaring at me. I went on a religious soul searching after (coming down off my trip) because I thought I was in hell. I was asking my buddy who sent him here (as if he was a spy or something and trying to destroy our society from within). Weeks later I was on the internet looking stuff up found a page that said when your in hell you see the image or form of your father (which I did when I was Tripping out) since I was in this "hell". It really tripped me out and I thought there really is such a thing as God and the devil because when I was in this hell of a trip I saw my father's face/image, but I didn't not know that would happen to people when they go to hell until weeks AFTER I already tripped...I dunno if I'm ever the same after, I think I've changed though because I'm an atheist again lol
      Big take from it all those is that the drugs make you delusional. You aren't seeing true reality. People shouldn't take their trips as untapped or unknown knowledge because it's not reality. The drugs make you think it is though....

That language being spoken always seems like The language, the grand story of the universe or something, but we cant understand it - but deep down we know the language is important or trying to say something important

    My psychedelic trips are more of a mental high than a body high. Every time I’m in a good one I feel that I’m an entity of light traveling through time and space accompanied by my opposite, a male entity. Sort of like yin and yang. And that is all there is, just us in this vast universe (like the Egg theory). And I keep seeing geometric figures/patterns like the Golden Ratio and Metatron’s Cube.
    My boyfriend says that it was all part of my imagination since I was high, but I just can’t ignore the fact that it felt too real. Just pure enlightenment.

      On my last LSD trip it was like there never existed a time without LSD and I was one with the universe and my friend who was equally as high. We experienced the same trip and everything seemed to be so simple and yet so complex. I felt like my eyes could not only see but also feel and hear, I experienced the world through my eyes and lost every sense of my body. My friend kept saying if she stopped walking she would dissolve and we walked around holding hands. We were in another universe and felt connected since we experienced exacly the same things.

    I love when he tells the ufo story. What starts off as a cloud, turns into a ship, with rotating lights and rivets, into an end cap on a hoover vacuum, 45 ft in diameter and in the sky. Just leaving him completely dumbfounded. Its experiences like these that are dear to my heart. The pure oddness of it all, which would never happen in normal waking states, is one of my favorite parts of the psilocybin experience. The mushroom can literally present itself in any which way it chooses to. It truly is THE mystery that there may never be a sufficient answer to. I've had my own "ufo" experiences on psilocybin, and i constantly think about them. I know ill never get answers. But it sure is fun to speculate about them.

    Although i was raised christian aswell, i never really believed life is just that.
    Thinking of it,i can say as my third eye opened my spirit was sucked into astral, i literally saw everything moving far away from me, then i was sucked out of my body, and i heard my voice speaking to me and telling me everything i ever had questioned, thought about, theories and all that jazz.
    It was the most profound experience i've ever had.
    At the end of the trip i instantly felt like i slided back into my body.

    It’s dark, but a beautiful word for “sadness,” “melancholy,” or “gloominess.” I was first introduced to it by the Turkish author, Orhan Pamuk. The word has Arab origins, but in modern Turkish, it denotes a sense of failure in life, lack of initiative, and a retreat into oneself.

    "We had set the following evening, that of March 4, as the day we would test the full theory of the harmine-DNA bond. I noted with unusual satisfaction that this day corresponded with an idiotic pun that had stuck with me since earliest childhood: "What day of the year is a command?" Answer: "March 4th." "How fitting then," I ranted and raved. "How fitting that we will attempt to concretize the soul on that day."

    • @AlienInsect
      @AlienInsect 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +dominic curtis I think this DNA intercalation idea is now basically obsolete, as a result of modern pharmacological receptor binding data etc. It was wonderfully imaginative speculation and worth it just for that, but I don't think it's any longer a viable model of harmine action. I guess that's why nobody's tested it.

    • @dominiccurtis4571
      @dominiccurtis4571 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Andrew Gallimore wasn't the theory a mixture of psilocybin and harmine alkaloids? is just knowing the receptor site all that you need? most psychedelics activate 5ht2a and a few others depending on the compound and yet people are clueless as their mechanism

    • @AlienInsect
      @AlienInsect 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      dominic curtis
      Yes it was a mixture, but it makes no difference. Actually, there is quite a good understanding of why 5HT2A activation creates the effects it does. If you read my paper, Building Alien Worlds (Google it), I discuss this in some detail. This information has now been updated by functional imaging data that links 5HT2A activation to specific changes in neural activity characteristic of the psychedelic state. I'm currently working on computational models of 5HT2A receptor activation and relating this to specific effects at the column level - watch this space for the upcoming publication...

    • @dominiccurtis4571
      @dominiccurtis4571 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I'll definetly give it a read! I still think that psychedelics could change the DNA. DNA is a manifestation of our beleif systems not only our biological history so I think it would be logical that our DNA would change in a profound way because there is no other experience I can think of that has such a profound effect on our beleif systems. Also this could go hand and hand with whats known as DNA activation. This is just speculation
