I also have the urge to eat an entire gram of mescaline while naked and alone in the woods, or while masturbating on the hood of Wiccan's neighbor's car, either would work. Now where the fuck did that come from? Damn you Terrence.

So, last night I started pondering some of Mkenna's thoughts on culture. I came to realize that first of all, he's only human and none of us know everything. He was still a very brilliant thinker, even if he missed the mark on some things.

He tends to do to culture exactly what he blames culture for doing to us lol. He doesn't give it any breathing room. He strictly defines it and that is that. IMO, there is a reason why we have the phenomenon of culture. The mass media does indeed hinder the natural evolution of culture, and that isn't a good thing, but to say culture in general is bad is not correct. The phenomenon of culture comes from necessity, if it did not, it would not persist. Even in places where there is no media to dictate it's growth you will see this phenomena develop and persist. He describes culture as an overcoat that we wear, I think it's more like a lighthouse. We should be free to exist within our culture however we are, but at the same time without that lighthouse you net nothing. Just like anything that is measured, it can't be measured without a reference point.  If there was only one object in the entire universe it could never had movement or speed without another object to compare it to, dig? Even his own lectures support the idea that hallucinations and those types of things are just as real as your present reality in their own rite. If that is true then what makes those things you discover when using psychedelics any better than what you have without them? Without culture as your control specimen, you net nothing.

That is all :ifyoucanawe:

I don't think McKenna is opposed to the idea of culture itself, but I think he advocates a better recognition by individual humans that culture is an imperfect human construction rather than the wisdom from on-high that many paralytically accultured individuals see it as. IE, when your pants are getting mangy and dirty, you take them off and put on new pants, rather than try to justify wearing mangy old pants (as many do). When your religion is complicit in mass murder, you leave it and come up with a new one. Et cetera.

He must have done a good job getting that across, because that's exactly where I landed.

I haven't read nearly enough of his ramblings to be talking about what he may or may not mean but after thinking on what I have read, my take away was exactly what you said. Couldn't have said it better myself.
