Editorial Review:
What is it that attracts shamans, mystics, and other visionaries to the realms of altered states? It is the understanding that some wisdom cannot be accessed through ordinary consciousness alone. On Reality 2.0, trailblazer of non-ordinary reality Daniel Pinchbeck shares a first-hand account of his quest for a "system upgrade" for human society. Listeners join this 21st-century explorer and philosopher-journalist for an intriguing investigation of: * Shamanic cultures from the Americas to the Amazon, and the urgent messages they have for Western society * The 2012 phenomenon and the possibility of a new realization of time and space for humankind * Crop circles: de-bunked hoax or legitimate transmissions from galactic intelligence? * The potential of plant medicines such as iboga and ayahuasca to help address the spiritual crisis of our postmodern world.
Is our culture poised for the next leap in human evolution? How is technology changing us? Are we in the midst of a global "quickening" that will transform our individual and collective consciousness--and are heavy psychedelics required to participate? Pinchbeck explores these questions and more in this fascinating look at the issues most relevant to those curious about the future of our world.
