Today we are unquestionably in what many term a “psychedelic renaissance,” with increased social rehabilitation of these powerful agents taking place, perhaps foremost in the domain of therapy for behavioral health issues.
Many individuals who are exploring psychedelic drugs will experience, with varying degrees of intention and readiness, what can be recognized as encounters with the spiritual world. With its strong materialistic leanings, our culture is lacking the concepts needed to begin to think or talk about these experiences from a robustly conceived viewpoint, such as is provided by Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophy.
Join us in a dialog with our panelists, where we explore questions of how anthroposophy may relate itself to the surging interest in these powerful tools.
Douglas Wylie will moderate the conversation.
