Dr. David Shoemaker | Thelemic Magick, Aleister Crowley, & Finding Your True Will
Psychedelics, Visionary Consciousness and Sustainable Practice
The role of psychedelics in magical practice is discussed as a means of showing the possibilities of alternate ways of perceiving the universe. While drugs can provide a glimpse of visionary consciousness, Dr. Shoemaker argues that magical practices offer a more sustainable and controlled way to access those states. The host shares how psychedelic experiences validated the existence of non-physical realms for him, encouraging a return to formal practice.
