Sam Harris and Andrew Huberman talking about the scientifically proven therapeutic effects of psychedelics. It's an interesting discussion from two of the leading voices that have discussed mushrooms and classic psychedelics.

In this video Sam kind of sums up how I felt before psychedelics and how popular culture tends to influence our thinking about psychedelic use.

He says:
"the idea that there was some other way of grasping cognitively at the interesting parts of the world beyond thinking about the world just would have computed for me"

Its only about 20 mins but it's an interesting watch that covers, religions, psychology, society and culture in relation to the psychedelic experience.

"We can begin the restructuring of thought by declaring legitimate what we have denied for so long. Lets us declare Nature to be legitimate. The notion of illegal plants is obnoxious and ridiculous in the first place." - Terence Mckenna
