Does any know where Terence McKenna is buried? * 1
    #9806651 - 02/16/09 08:02 AM (15 years, 1 month ago)

Time for a strange question:

Does anyone know where the late great Terence Kemp Mckenna is buried? I've searched obituraries and such but can't seem to find any information on it. I'm thinking it is somewhere in Cali or Hawaii. He died in Cali, but he lived in Hawaii. He was born in Paomia Colorado, but I doubt his body returned there. Then again, there is also the possibility that he was cremated.

I ask because I would like to make a pilgrimage there to pay my respects, a symbolic act nothing more. It's personally important to me.

I wasn't sure where to post this. In the end, this seemed like the best place. It would quickly get lost in the shuffle at The Pub and it isn't appropriate for The Psychedelic Experience. I figure the people here may actually have some interest in answering this question.

Terence's family would probably know...It might be back at his house in Hawaii. The only other place I would think would be near where he died in Cali...

I am the same age as McKenna was when he died. I hope you visit me before I kick the bucket. :cryariver:

My plan is to go on a symbolic "pilgrimage" to the burial sites of the three thinkers that have influenced me most profoundly. The three are William James, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Terence McKenna. I already know where James is at. Nietzsche has got to be somewhere in Germany, which will be the hardest to get to it. McKenna remains a mystery.

I'm thinking he was either cremated, or buried in Hawaii. I believe he died in San Rafael, Cali but have not been able to dig up any info on a grave site. To find out I can contact Kathleen Harrison McKenna, Christy Silness, Klea McKenna, Finn McKenna, or Dennis McKenna. Of those five family members, the only email I address I could find was for Klea. (You'd be surprised how hard it is to find Dennis' contact information, sheesh.) I've also acquired Erik Davis' email address. But I bet he gets lots of emails. Mine would probably just get lost in the shuffle.

If you have any other ideas or comments, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

OrgoneConclusion, I'll see what I can do. I may have to turn my trinity of thinkers into a... quadrinity (yes, I know its not a real word) just to make you happy. Haha.

Hmm... you don't happen to remember what interview or who was being interviewed, do you?

(PS Nice tool quote. I'm a huge fan.
PPS Great picture as well. I've seen it before. Good stuff.)

No, it really hasn't been too easy. Took a bit of effort to even find James' grave site. I bet a lot of it is luck.

Hmm, strange... i thought the interview might have been with someone in McKenna's close circle, like family or friends. But if it was with Terence, then he must have known all his plans before he died... I dunno. I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying that something doesn't seem right. I can't imagine McKenna going, "Oh yeah, I'll be buried in Hawaii." But it might just be me. Thanks for all your help.

well the thing is the interviewer was replaying an interview between him and terrance from years prior. so i don't remember terrance saying anything but it was replayed shortly after his death so the guy art bell had a little intro about terrance and his life and i think he mentioned it in that. and i talked to my friend it was prob a podcast on psychedelic saloon....

I'm pretty familiar with the psychedelic salon, as well as most of McKenna's lectures on there. But, I often times skip or fast forward through what Lorenzo has to say so I could have very well missed something. Let me know if you remember anything else.

I'm pretty sure he's buried next to Jimmy Hoffa. :whoa:

Terence Mckenna is buried right here in the small town of Paonia, Colorado. The image above is an image of his grave here in Paonia Cemetary. This is a beautiful place with a lot of beautiful minds. Definitely worth the pilgrimage.

To the best of my knowledge T.M.  died,  was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures.
