"Everything that I've thought about as being the highest thing, the greatest thing, the greatest goal, that's nothing. It's like a tiny little outpost on this great infinite adventure." "You can create heaven. You can create hell. Which do you choose?" "But for many people, using a psychedelic drug essentially blows them out of this bubble of the conscious mind." "So some people may bring in a beautiful piece of spiritual art to remind them of their spiritual path." "We could use a lot more kindness. We could use a lot more compassion and empathy and collaboration and cooperation."
