Alexander Beiner – The Role Of Psychedelics In A Post-Truth World
This talk will examine the history of progressive culture since the 1960’s, and ask the question of what, if any, cultural role psychedelics can play in a post-Trump, post-Brexit world. Drawing on Integral Studies, I’ll examine whether psychedelics can reliably help people move through stages of psycho-spiritual development. Using this as a basis to examine the strengths and weaknesses of the TTI model, which combines meditation and psychedelics into a structured psycho- spiritual practice, the talk will lead to a pressing question: can psychedelics still change the world?

Trump, Brexit, etc is just the beginning. Soon we'll have to abandon civility and address these nationalist currents at a concrete level if we are to understand a way forward.
Nice work 🙂
Loved the lecture, you remind me of Orlando Bloom
spiral dynamics is bunk.
