it's like winning the lottery
"How important was LSD for the Eastern spiritual practices during the sixties? - They were certainly powerful for me. I took LSD and other psychedelics at Dartmouth after I started studying Eastern religion. They came hand in hand, as they did for many people. In fact, the majority of Western Buddhist teachers used psychedelics at the start of their spiritual practice. A number still do on occasion. But of the many hundreds of people I know who took psychedelics, only a few had radically transformative experiences. Many others were greatly inspired, and a few were damaged. It's like winning the lottery. A lot of people play, and while not so many people win big, the potential is there." |
| ... needs a long enduring
mind
"I have the utmost respect for the power of psychedelics. In a tempered view of them, it does not mean that I do not have a lot of respect for them, and for the work that certain courageous researchers have done with them. My sense from my own Buddhist training and from teaching traditional practice for many years is that people underestimate the depth of change that is requied to transform oneself in spiritual life. True liberation requires a great perspective - called "a long enduring mind" by one Zen master. Yes, awakening comes in a moment, but living it, stabilizing it, can take years and lifetimes." (both quotes: Jack Kornfield in 'Tricycle') |
