As a global society possessing, you know, DNA sequencers and thermonuclear delivery systems and so forth and so on, we cannot have the luxury of an unconscious mind. That’s something that may or may not have some appropriateness if you’re hunting woolly mastodons and that sort of thing. But an integrated global culture cannot have the luxury of a large portion of its mind inaccessible to itself and somehow occluded. And apparently this is being eliminated. Technology, the evolution of languages, and so forth have taken a turn toward outing the unconscious.
The species mind is being made explicit by entering into the visual awareness of individuals.
The extent to which the computer medium could be shared by a large number of people gives an idea of a further advance in ultimate evolution.
It’s the species mind. And nothing is happening, except that what was previously wetware and driven by intuition is being made explicit as hardware and driven by machine interface. We’re downloading or uploading the unconscious into a cultural artifact, and it’s gaining presence in the domain of culture through this process.
That civilization which welcomes psychedelics is the civilization that will lead and rule the planet.
