Run!!
I’m rooting for the escapee. Who wouldn’t?
This expose amounts to showing the uncontrollability of the Spirit of Psilocybin and makes a mockery of the efforts of psychedelic beginner Science to understand and control the loose cognitive state.
If only they had the Egodeath theory — the Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism — this would have been prevented. 😑 Or not. 🤷♂️
Huston Smith Interview at Psilosophy.info
This page corrects my slightly off memory, I thought the escapee made it upstairs to talk with a priest, but actually he was on his way to a dean.
That changes slightly the backdrop for my joke about rooting for the escapee from the psychedelic experiment, April 20, 1962.
Huston Smith wrote:
“Realizing that he was overpowered – barely, for under the influence his strength was like Samson’s – John, tightly flanked, submitted to being walked back to the chapel where Wally [Walter Pahnke] injected an antidote. [maybe thorazine/CPZ]
“Immediately he was back in his right mind but with total amnesia as to what had occurred.
“It took twenty-four hours for all the pieces of the episode to come back to him and be fitted into place.
“God, it turned out, had chosen him to announce to the world the dawning millennium of peace and good will.
“(As often happens in such cases, the actual wording of the message made little sense to normal ears.)
“In his homily in the chapel, John broke the news to our congregation, but he needed to get it to the world at large, which was what caused him to leave the chapel.
“When, walking down Commonwealth Avenue, he saw the plaque announcing “Dean of the College of Liberal Arts” by the entrance to 745 Commonwealth Avenue, it occurred to him that deans have influence, so if he could get to that dean, that dean would call a press conference that would complete John’s mission.
“The postman’s packet was for the dean, he felt sure, so if he attached himself to it, it would take him to his targeted dean.”
Don’t run away from the psychedelic experiment room confinement
It would be irresponsible to joke about encouraging volunteers for 3 dried grams worth of Golden Teacher (= 30 mg psil.) to escape from their confinement to eyeshades, headphones, and entrapping blanket, where you are only permitted to get up to use the bathroom and even then, the door is kept ajar.

Hurry hurry hurry
Before I go insane
I can’t control my fingers
I can’t control my brain
Oh no
Get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry
Before I go loco
I can’t control my fingers
I can’t control my toes
Oh no
