The Imagination Must Serve The Ideal Of The Beautiful

By slicing into messages of McKenna from books,
images, articles & lectures, mind-bending coincidences emerge
that otherwise would have remained invisible

The Imagination must serve the ideal of the beautiful
If it doesn't change the structure of the human soul, then

We will have to go deeper,
and take a walk on the wild side

Can we solve our problems and
maintain our individual existences

Is it the coming of the superorganism?
It is going to define, to redefine what it is to be human.
technologies are neither Gods nor demons, it’s what you do with it.

But the dilemma of human freedom is that we don’t know,
we don't know where we rest in the universal hierarchy of good and evil.
what would we do if we could do anything?
Would our transcendent impulses drive us to a kind of angelhood,
or would we flop on the “sceney” side.

but what if we erase that possibility of individual action
and is there then only one destiny?

Transcendence is favored.
Transcendence is favored.
Transcendence is favored.
Nature seems to be in the business of building systems
which transcend themselves.
