healing power of psychedelics and of psychosis

[David Dalton]

Here is an interesting blog about the healing power of psychosis
when (like psychedelic treatment) it occurs in a supportive
environment :

It is in line with other articles about spiritual emergency leading
to spiritual emergence and about shamanic calls/trials.

Thanks!

I didn't read much of it, but was reminded,
even before taking a look at it, of Bill Wilson and his
experiences with LSD along the path of AA's formation.

Also, at the very beginning of the article I was reminded
once again of Tang's saying someone was mentally ill,
given various reactions Tang elicited and elicits.

Medicine men and women thru the ages were revered
at times, until cultures changed and forms went out
of style and a few windows never opened up
in the minds of some people ever since.

Using various means to obtain results may work.
Having a good set and setting may help.

Learning and knowing how to integrate, reintegrate,
and rejoin one's cultural environs may occur.

Some people trip out and never make it back.
They could be seen as many other explorers,
thrill-seekers, or simply pine ears and acorn nuts.
