The Danger of Seeing What Others Don’t & The Weird Things That Begin to Happen When You Examine Consciousness: Terence McKenna
#Consciousness #TerenceMcKenna #CarlJung
Weird things begin to happen when you examine consciousness. This mystery is at the heart of Terence McKenna – the price of miracles – where McKenna explores how perception, language, psychedelics, and altered states reveal hidden layers of reality—and why there is always a cost to unlocking them.
In this rare lecture, McKenna blends psychedelic philosophy, mysticism, philosophy of mind, and storytelling to uncover how consciousness shapes reality. Alongside ideas from Carl Jung on the unconscious, archetypes, and individuation, the talk dives into why language is magic, why science fears altered states, and how the psyche itself may be the key to transcendence.

🌌 About This Video
This archival lecture personally shows Terence McKenna examining what happens when we turn consciousness back on itself. From psychedelic states and expanded awareness to Jungian archetypes, the collective unconscious, and individuation, he shows how reality itself may be a construct of mind. McKenna critiques modern science for losing touch with the soul and echoes Carl Jung’s call to embrace the symbolic, the mystical, and the irrational as pathways to self-knowledge.
This is more than a lecture—it’s a journey into consciousness studies, psychedelic philosophy, Jungian psychology, mysticism, and the search for transformation.
