Someone like you wouldn't look into something like that even more to try to come up with a working model?? http://www.maps.org/news-letters/v07n1/07112bea.html
Calling Bullshit does nothing.
Alright, so people experience a common a hallucination on mushrooms--do you honestly believe this proves anything?

There are reports that psilocybin mushrooms can engender a dialogue between the one who ingests them and a voice of unknown origin.
You actually believe that this voice is from an unknown origin, one that is different than the origin of any other ordinary hallucination?

The brain.

Why would you link me to a study that you don't believe in?

Ahhh, now we are here... Now what??
The subjective experience, shizz.

I do. This:
Quote:
So what does it mean?
My study lends credence to the theory that psilocybin inspired voices are expressions of the Logos. Beyond that, what the Logos is, well, that depends on how "Eastern" your world view is. That is, when people ask me what I think these voices may be, whether part of us or not, I have to first ask them what the mean by "us." The question of what is self and what is other then takes prominence. Is there anything that we can say is truly alien? Though in our experiences we may encounter a "Wholly Other," from an Eastern perspective (or in the ancient West, a Plato-Plotinian one) all of the Cosmos is interior to us. Can it be said that there are boundaries to the human psyche? Psilocybin voice experiences force us to confront our notions of a personal self and a universal Self.
