Are psychedelics a path to spiritual enlightenment? Ashley Lande vs Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes
Playback speed
There has been a revival of interest in psychedelics & hallucinogenic drugs. But are they a path to enlightenment or a spiritual dead end?
Ashley Lande was heavily into psychedelics until bad experiences led her to abandon the drugs and embrace Christianity. Dr Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes is a philosopher who argues for the value of hallucinogens as a way of expanding our consciousness.
Justin also chats with Ben Jacobs about the new Genexis events in Coventry and London http://www.genexis.org./tickets
