Next Episode: Cyd Ropp, Ph.D on A Gnostic Creation Myth (The Valentinian Tripartite Tractate)

We explore the earthly and unearthly forces in the early 70s that shaped the minds of Philip K. Dick, Terence McKenna, and Robert Anton Wilson. This leads to how these psychonauts went to both influence and foretell today’s fragmenting culture. We focus more on Dick, including his Gnosticism that was much earlier than most believe and his predictions of a Gnostic nightmare that has come true.

Astral Guest – Erik Davis, author of High Weirdness: Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies.
