Just heard an amazing talk by Andy Weil, Dr. Andy Weil, talking about his life on psychedelics, going all the way back to 1961, when he first took mescaline, and his time at Harvard, and all his experiences over his lifetime, how that really has informed his view of integrative medicine and healing and spiritual development and consciousness. And he ended by saying that he really believes that DMT and 5 Meo DMT are like, kind of like the core or root psychedelic substances. They have the closest relationship to human beings, that we actually produce these in our brain, and that that they actually offer the greatest hope for a shift in consciousness and as well for healing various maladies that human beings suffer from. And so, just a fascinating talk, historical perspective from someone who was new, you know, was friends with Timothy Leary.
