These deeper levels include, for example, what Stanislav Grof terms the third level of psychedelic experience the perinatal, meaning “surrounding birth.” It is equivalent to that which Masters and Houston termed the symbolic level — the difference being due to the fact that perinatal material is initially experienced in highly symbolic ways, and it is only in later sessions with the drug that the birth material becomes more apparent. Since Masters and Houston’s research method was to study the effects of one session of the drug on over two hundred subjects and Grof’s method included its use with some hundreds or thousands of individuals over a number of sessions, it is understandable why Masters and Houston did not recognize the birth material laced through the encounters with their “symbolic” level. On the other hand, Grof subjects experiencing multiple sessions would find — later, if not sooner — the birth-related aspects of their experiences too obvious to be able to ignore.

So it was that while Grof and other researchers like Masters and Houston were studying LSD’s effects in controlled settings and with sessions guided by researchers who had experience with accessing deeper levels of the experience — as, for example, Grof himself — there was some degree of access of the deeper levels of the experience even by people using it in uncontrolled situations and with no guidance. It is for this reason that there were some calamities that occurred under the influence of the drug. These rare instances were seized upon by counterculture opponents to spread falsities about the drug’s safety. This, in turn, led to LSD being outlawed. These portrayals of LSD are clearly seen to be outlandish and paranoid, when you consider that the effect of LSD on DNA, which is one of the charges against it, are about as powerful on affecting DNA as an ordinary cup of tea would be. This was pointed out by Stanislav Grof in his book LSD Psychotherapy (1978). So we see how much lying and propaganda were brought to bear by the WWII Gen around this cultural phenomenon, LSD. Indeed, as it turns out, for every LSD experience gone wrong, there were hundreds or thousands other LSD experiences that were powerfully transformative. This, simply, is due to the fact that, even without a guide, the psyche’s normal tendency is toward growth and resolution. Hence, many people were able to flow with and be taken… PART TWO: CULTURE WAR — GENERATIONS Page 100

PART TWO: CULTURE WAR — GENERATIONS Page 100 Drug Effects — LSD In Stanislav Grof’s many works (for example, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, and so on), he concurs with Masters and Houston’s earlier work (1967) that the initial phases of psychedelic experience are predominantly enhanced sensory awareness. It is this type of experience that is usually related to the use of LSD as when the experience is expressed in colorful and swirling images, which has been called psychedelic art. And for many people who used LSD, the experience remained on this level of surface, enhanced sensory awareness. Thus, they could use it for “recreational” purposes. Yet more often with LSD than with pot, people accessed deeper levels of the mind, so that the recollective-analytic — Grof calls it the biographical or psychodynamic level — is reached, as well as levels of consciousness beyond it. These levels were experienced even when the drug was used “recreationally,” because of the relative potency of the drug as compared with marijuana.

[Chapter 7 text begins:] The preeminent researcher on the effects of LSD on consciousness is, without question, Stanislav Grof. However, Robert E. L. Masters and Jean Houston’s research with LSD led to their seminal work, The Varieties of Psychedelic Experience. This book came out in 1967 and had a significant impact on the drug culture of the time. Most influential on the counterculture at the time, however, was Timothy Leary’s work, The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead. It was a work that sought to be a guide for journeyers in mind-expanding experiences, which was based on The Tibetan Book of the Dead, as its title informs. That work came out in 1966 and was coauthored by two other notables in consciousness research, Richard Alpert and Ralph Metzner. Richard Alpert is he who later became Ram Dass. As Ram Dass, Alpert authored another influential work in the Sixties consciousness culture, Be Here Now (1971). 7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 99

“Gen X correspondingly would not be influenced to drugs of mind expansion but to ones of this-worldly practicality, especially ones that aided their WWII-Gen inculcated values of greed, acquisition, and power. To that, the 13th Generation’s more privileged upbringing would have them add indifference to the plights of others and reckless defiance of social niceties. These values would later be highlighted in the MAGA movement, whose greatest numbers are those of the 13th Generation/Gen X.” 7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 99

“Gen Xers would conveniently deem their abject submission to monetary and traditional values as some kind of grand rebellion against what they had been taught were ludicrous values of peaceniks, tree-huggers, dirty hippies, and ‘Berkeley’ radicals. For their generation had been taught, by the establishment, in typical Culture War fashion, that it was the political correctness of the generation prior to them that was the actual danger, the actual ‘established’ order, the actual establishment.” 7.

7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 99 “Rather than the Superman/Mighty-Mouse influences on the childhoods of the previous Boomer generation — which had Sixties youth thinking they could and should change the world for high ideals of peace, love, and utopian betterment — Gen X would ape being rascally Bugs-Bunny– like figures: Not giving a damn, laughing at the ‘kumbaya,’ spitting on the environment, and ridiculing the airy-fairy. Because of the propaganda put upon them to turn them away from Sixties values, Gen X would end up despising the actual revolutionaries of the cohort of Sixties youth preceding them. They would pride themselves on tossing a monkey wrench into any utopian works, generally being a nuisance or obstructionist to any attempts at a better, or simply survivable, world.”

7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 98 “Generation X would swallow whatever untruths they had been fed. For they had been led, by the WWII-Gen media, to scapegoat the Sixties Generation for any problems they saw around them. This use of fake news and misrepresentation beginning in the 1970s and 1980s to deflect attention away from the actual filthy-rich perpetrators is important. This tactic of the wealthy elite targeting a scapegoat to create a Culture War, which would keep their larceny in the shadows, is indeed the premise of this book. “I need to make clear just how long has been going on this ploy of the wealthy using Culture War to hide their secretive and ongoing Class War. It makes it easier to see why it is so pervasive today, as we observe in the media’s use of Lefties as target practice for the irritations of grumbly MAGAts.”

7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 98 “Gen X were raised and educated to be a corrective to Sixties youth and their values. They would not be influenced to be critical thinkers, to be generalists — free thinking and open-minded, which would make them liberal thinkers, politically. Rather, they were taught that open- heartedness and free thinking were silly and impractical in a ‘real world’ of greed, gamesmanship, status climbing, and struggle. They would not be introduced to heroic or idealistic notions of possibilities for world renewal or evolution but would be shunted onto the traditional paths of job/career, family, competition, wealth acquisition, and consumerism.”

7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Pages 97,98 "Once the pot experience opens to the second level of awareness — the recollective-analytic, which is deeper and more real than the initial enhanced sensory awareness — there is no going back. " "Regardless the cost, the one thing the Sixties Generation did not want to do was to end up like their parents; thus, the disdain for the use of alcohol. " "By the time of Altamont -- another huge musical event held in California after Woodstock -- the change was apparent. AIcohol was now being used, with the other drugs, in abundance; there was no disdain for its use; and violence and death at the event coincided with this change." PART TWO: CULTURE WAR — GENERATIONS

“...the Sixties Generation ... predominant drugs of choice were ‘pot’ (marijuana) and LSD. Alongside this sort of drug use were attitudes of activism, free love, love as the ultimate value and/or as equivalent to God, pacifism in regards to the war, the valuing of openness, authenticity, ‘real’ communication, and passion and/or feelingness, including sensory awareness or heightened perception of the physical world.”

7. VIETNAM/BOOMER GENERATION — MARIJUANA AND PSYCHEDELICS Page 97 “The Sixties subculture was one of experimentation in all areas, including drugs, which grew out of beliefs — following in the footsteps of the Beat Generation — that normal life/people were characterized by phoniness, alienation, conformism, robotism, and lack of feelingness ... and hypocrisy. Plastic became the pejorative the Vietnam- era Generation would use to describe the phony people they saw around them, as revealed, often, by the mind- expanding drugs.”

“...those of us who lived through that period and either participated in LSD use or heard the stories of psychedelic experiencers can attest that transformative spiritual experiences were quite common, even when the drug was used just for the ‘fun’ sensory part; and people also described experiences of curling up in fetal position and reliving their births, long before anyone even heard the term perinatal. As concerns the spiritual level, it was not uncommon to hear of people who met with someone who would be comparable to a Jesus, or who went to a place they could only describe as ‘heaven,’ and this is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the varieties of spiritual experiences that were had.” PART TWO: CULTURE WAR — GENERATIONS Page 96, 97
