From Jungle To “Civilization”: How Plant Medicines Can Promote Health In a Toxic Culture
Psychedelic Science 2017
2017.psychedel...
A six-day global gathering of the international scientific community in Oakland, California to explore new research into the benefits and risks of MDMA, LSD, psilocybin, ayahuasca, ketamine, ibogaine, medical marijuana, and more.
This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my TH-cam channel 10 months ago about self development. Now I have 1,969 subs and > 2k hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
Thank You MAPS for giving me opportunity to understand life much better. Thank You Gabor Mate for your beautiful existence and giving the LIGHT to our World.
Thank you so so so much ,Gabor Mate. You are a gift to me. I am so happy to discover you.
so much to glean from this lecture. need to listen a few times. Thank you to #PS17 #MAPS #DrMate Very grateful to have access 💗💚🌱
He has a way of comforting me well enough as I can handle...lol and years after he speaks. Amazing devotee to humanity may he live long and teach many
One more thing, I think think that this gentleman IS completely on point and right! Wow, very very Profound and makes one think! So many people /Everybody needs to HEAR THIS
lovely lecture. would be great to have a bigger screen featuring the speaking, with the graphic much smaller!
Around 54:00 we can see the graphic actually is the projector screen, and it's a recording of a "presentation with projector."
Which happened to have just the one generic "slide". They'd have to go back with the techies who did the recording and check if the video track was recorded stand alone, too, and do video editing and reupload...
thank you so Gabor ❤️
This cultural appropriation argument is complete nonsense. The plants were given to humanity, not any particular people. As long as they are treated respectfully and in an ethical way, they are for benefit of everyone. That does not take away from the real current and historical grievances of indigenous peoples and the trauma they have suffered.
This talk by Gabor Mate is awesome and it needs to be spread as widely as possible.
You said what I tried to say in far fewer words, spot on.
Rob Coffey Agreed. They are plants of this world just as we are all humans of this world. Our "civilized" society's have just forgotten how to use them and evadentally scared of them.
Rob Coffey Well well said , do you have any suggestions on how I can get this help and then help others? PLEASE , I'M cool, no bs, I just need help and really would love to help others suffering. I'm a Barbershop Owner.

please, Theo
Rob Coffey I am really hoping you or someone will guide me as to ehere where I need to go please someone help
The way you said "nonsense" has some anger to it, the plants were given to the humanity, in billion forms, spread through out, it is through the practice of natives with mind and body, they brought these plants out to benefit our minds, and now after destroying their life and culture, and after 400 years we go back to their roots, and calling it nonsense when they want to have a say?, yes the native culture is "we are all children of forest", you, me and every one included.
Thanks for upload.
the story about the tribesman and his son was amazing, i wish i knew where it was sourced from, to read more and find more of that writer. what a beautiful hopeful feeling it gave me.

BRILLIANT!
Great talk!!
Genius
The woman in the end complaining about cultural appropriation has no claim over Ayahuasca. There's no Ayahuasca tradition from the Canadian First Peoples, if anything she is the one trying to appropriate it just because she wrongfully identifies as one of the Amazonian peoples. It's very unfortunate that instead of wanting to share the medicine, she prefers to retreat into some kind of vengeful shaming of other peoples disguised as fighting against cultural appropriation. I hope she can heal her issues instead of projecting them onto everyone else.
the meditation lady in the beginning is fukin wild
yep, worst meditation ever, Trump style
What a GREAT talk! Does anyone know if cultures that have a history of use of plant medicine have increased longevity? If not, what's the disconnect?
Culture
Brilliant man brilliant mind
does anyone has the full reference to the article mentioned in this presentation - Journal of Pediatrics _
?
please and thank you
Uhm... Did the lady at the end just tell a Hungarian JEW, who was born during WWII and survived the Nazi invasion, to PRAY and be accountable for his white privilege? Holy projection, Karen. Guilt much? Some of us first nation peoples actually want the rest of the world to learn and use our medicine, WE know how well they work! We want them to work for others and heal this world's ills. Compassionately sharing what we know with others, not only serves to help others, it also serves to keep our own culture alive and well.
Dr. Maté's talks are incredible. In casually studying psychology and health myself, the insights he provides turn on a chandelier of light bulbs in my head, and make me look at my and other people's behavior and reactions in vastly new light. To understand how little I know about all these connections, I feel excited to learn about it more.
Спасибо!
I am not sure if i understood the last question. Did she say that learning something fron another culture and integrate it on another is appropriation?
She is addressing white entitlement and cultural appropriation. After several thousand years of established wisdom and protocol the white western world has "discovered" entheogenic healing and is attempting to "show the way" just as it had in the 60's. (We saw how well that went). She is trying to get the predominately white, recreational users in that hall, who feel like Mr Coffey does in the comment above, to understand that entheogenic healing involves much more than just "taking a pill."

The last question asked at the end of the lecture implying cultural appropriation seems misguided
She wasn't listening to the lecture. She just wants to argue about made up things she was told should make her angry and saw a microphone.
Joshua Green she sounded as if that had been building up for some time and no matter what she heard it wouldn’t make a difference. That is trauma in itself
NO ONE , NO ONE , has a right too TELL me or you what ?, we put in our body , especially CREATOR GIVEN NATURAL PLANTS KNOWN TO HELP!!!!! PERIOD!!!!! That simple..... We are human beings, we have common sense!!!!!!
very brave lady speaking up at the end. it's a shame there wasn't more time for her
Alexander, with all do respect. Your comments and the ease in which you dismiss a woman in pain and who is part of a several millennia old tradition betrays your "white privilege." The very fact that you assume that she "enjoys the modern life" that (your) "society" has "provided" her. Shows your white privilege. That fact that you assume she has "no issue" "adopting" the "benefits" of what white privilege "offers" her shows your "white privilege." Perhaps I should come take away your children educate them to be just like me, take your sacred traditions as my own without the wisdom of 2 thousand years of practice and say "Hey man you didn't patent these! Any one can get'm and use 'em as long as you say thanks!" I was there, Gabor apologized profusely later on, he was conscious of how his "white privilege" spoke before even he could stop it. That's how insidious it is. Plain and simple.
Very brave indeed! I was disappointed by the deflection I heard in his answer, although I think it was due to his not fully understanding where she was coming from and perhaps being limited by time. I think he may be appreciative of the culture but am of the opinion that that is not enough. His statement, which she accurately restated, was dismissive and/or cynical. There is something we can do about cultural appropration... We can call it out when we see it, make space for discussions about it, amplify the voices of the marginalized, and use our platform/privilege to educate about the harm it causes. It was, at best, a missed opportunity. I hope he really did appreciate the challenge. He needed it!
+Mitch Walker Great answer!
It takes 7 years of apprenticeship to become a Curandero. Spreading this knowledge is not taken lightly, but at the same time the world needs this medicine right now. The Shamans know this, and that is why they are willfully sharing it. They can’t help the world heal if they keep it all to themselves! It is way to help us all start speaking the same language of love. This idea of “ownership” is actually very Western unto itself. In Africa they say “Ubuntu.”
Presence solves all problems of the mind.

This is the segment where he speaks about his own direct personal experience at 71 with psilobicine.
" In the plant experience you can reconnect with your trauma, with your past child experience, in an environment that is supportive and in the presence of someone who can hold you which is what your parents couldn't do, which is why you were traumatized in the first place ..."
...
"... And second I could experience deep love and understand why I had run away so often in my life from deep love..."
Such a great speech, but as always woke individuals had to “victimize” themselves. Learning through respect does not mean appropriating. Best reply is that you don’t need to experience to travel to the Amazonia. You can learn from his books and what he learned from the indigenous practice. It is your choice to heal.

Gabor needs to go for another drink ....
Worried about trump?
