    Nope, it about ice-cream lol?

    Just looked it up and it’s a Terence Mckenna book, Thanks very much for mentioning that bud.

    mckenna had a good hypothesis on magic mushrooms being a catalyst of human development, idk if its 100% valid, but it makes more sense than aliens.

    He’s an interesting chap, listened to a couple of his talks on youtube.

    yeah poor guy met a weird end with some rare type of brain cancer, he blamed it marijuana

    Really? I’d have thought he’d be the last person to blame a plant for his demise.

    yup, no casual relationship between marijuana and some random types of brain cancer has been proven but there is some sort of tentative link.

    said smoking everyday for 30 years caused it… also said some massive seizure he had because of the tumor was the most enlightening experience of his life.

    his rare books got given to his brother but the library burned down

    Poor fella, unbelievable all his books got burned as well. That really sucks.

    Now that is crazy.

    i just hold the hindu yuga’s in alot more esteem than something McKenna came up with looking at the I Ching and then trying to turn it into math as far as predicting the end of the world

    supposedly the kali yuga ends in 2025 and all bets are off after that, sounds alot more reasonable than novelty theory came up with nov 2012 as the end of time and then they arbitrarily bumped the date to dec 2012 to mesh with the mayan. reason i like the yugas as a measure is they are cyclical and essientally unending where as novelty theory is crap.

    of course with the yugas you’ve got all sorts of people telling you different dates and you get the problem of converting ‘divine years’ to human years. so its bullshit in its own way but still more novel than novelty theory.

    a brit in 1994 proved that mckenna did the maths wrong. so it came out to be a really unintresting wave

    There’s nothing wrong with believing whatever you wanna believe mate.

    thanks for the affirmation. mckenna just came up with something that was faulty and tried to pass it off as science then got debunked but the movement he jump-started lead to alot of misinformation on the enlightenment circuit.

    i’ll take mysticism over math any day

    trypti when do you think the world is gonna end?
