Existential Medicine

This episode comes from a live event on "Waking Up with Psychedelics" that occurred in Los Angeles, co-hosted by InsightLA. I was joined in this dialogue by Trudy Goodman, Spring Washam, & Dr. Charles Grob. Ram Dass joined us at the end of this dialogue, and his talk is on available for Buddhist Geeks Patrons as a bonus episode.


Memorable Quotes

"An untrained mind may go into panic, but a mind that's steeped in wisdom can start to say, 'Oh, this is the teaching right here.'" - Spring Washam

"It's a practice to be able to let the conventional self just dissolve into the not yet known." - Trudy Goodman

"Isn't it remarkable how we ingest plants in order to learn how to be human." - Ralph Metzner
