In this talk Susan Guner and I discuss the relationship between personal development and psychedelic plant medicine tools. Here we posit that psychedelic plant medicine tools are effective at transforming the psyche by exposing conscious experience to higher potentials of being. However, we also maintain that actually integrating these higher potentials requires an enormous amount of self-work in the world, and also the development of a social infrastructure that can help general consciousness transition to integrating higher states. The benefits of transforming include access to an awareness of higher potential, as well as heightened realization of your capacities for self authoring. In the bigger picture such a transition on a social level could lead to new community formation via mechanisms of genuine experiential transcendence of the individual self. One of the major features of this shift could involve a paradigm shift from a complexity centric view of the world, to a simplicity centric view of the world. Of course, there are many obstacles and challenges for us to confront in the future and we both maintain that psychedelic plant medicine tools can play a major role in cultivating the forms of consciousness that can navigate such a horizon.
