Where Do We Go From Here?

Being an avid psychedelic user myself when the occasion arises I wonder about where we go with it. http://www.bruceeisner.com/writings/2004/09/psychedelic_cul.html Are we headed towards utopia or Oblivion? Who controls our words and thoughts control our minds. If we allow others to mess about with our psyches we are doomed. How do we have a psychedelic 'community' if we don't learn to pass it on with dignity? Is the NW of North America with it's ample fungal entheogens (I hate that word but its better than...) ready to start a new culture? These are pertinent queries. Not pie-in-the-sky phantastical ravings. If we are not the people we have been waiting for who are? How long do we pass the buck? Do we place the emphasis on the kids here-now? What did they do to deserve such a messy planet? Why should they be laden with the messes of their parents and grandparents? Any thoughts. Pointed would be better. lancifer P.S. please read the interview first???

do your thoughts have to control your mind ?
Yes! Place the emphasis on the Here-Now , the kids will be as Here-Now as you are!

only 9 questions?
I chose to develop just 1 to see where it might lead: "Why should they be laden with the messes of their parents and grandparents?"
I think this is why we have seniors' care facillities. Clearly nobody wants to be faced by old people's diapers and not get paid fairly, but at seniors' care facillities, immigrants who will work for peanuts will definitely do a good job with the oversized nappies (where do you suppose those huge diapers go?).
Of course with all the strange stuff being put into the food these days, the peanut allergy seems to be rampaging, pretty soon we are going to have to find something new to pay the underpaid with? maybe we can get a grant to investigate the exchange potential of bupkes?

I like TM! Here's my thoughts after long years of involvment and study.
All is well in the Tao, and Mr. Natural sez,"twas ever thus"
I have no idea what is going on or which way to head. I do my thing, which is a path with heart and that is a very individual thing.

You may think you know it but the world does not. Military has been around for a long, long, time. It may continue on for a long, long, time. Cultures come and go. Dirty dipers are part of the infancy of mankind and may be in need of changing for a long, long, time.
