Exclusive Summary
Introduction and Context
The discussion explores the intersections of ancient esoteric traditions (Hermeticism, Platonism) with modern consciousness exploration, particularly through Terence McKenna’s psychedelic philosophy. It posits that reality has hidden layers beyond sensory perception, a notion shared by ancient philosophies and modern seekers. McKenna viewed Neoplatonism as a precursor to psychedelic insights, describing an “ascending hierarchy of rarified states” akin to shamanic cosmology.
Core Themes and Discussions
1. Reality and Deception
Dr. Attrell rejects the Gnostic view of a “cosmic demiurgical prison.” He sees the material world as an echo of higher realities, not false but a lower extension of the soul into matter, like an elastic band that can “snap back” to the divine.
Deception stems from human corruption, not cosmic design. The world reflects higher realms populated by intelligences like gods, angels, and demons.
2. Hermeticism and Platonism
Hermeticism: A life-affirming philosophy encouraging piety, gratitude, and creative acts (art, science, medicine) to draw divine energies into the material world. The Asclepius emphasizes harmonious coexistence with the divine.
Platonism: Reality is a shadow of a higher, noetic world of forms. The soul processes from and reverts to the “One,” mirroring McKenna’s ideas about time and novelty.
Theurgy and Initiation: Theurgy involves rituals to draw divine energies (e.g., animating statues). Teletai (initiations) perfect the soul, as seen in mystery cults like the Eleusinian Mysteries.
3. The Picatrix and Perfect Nature
The Picatrix, a medieval grimoire, details astrological and magical practices to contact planetary intelligences. The “Perfect Nature” ritual, involving a cave and lanterns, connects individuals with a spirit akin to a Holy Guardian Angel, guiding them to their cosmic purpose.
This aligns with Hermetic and Platonic ideas of aligning with divine will through practical, life-affirming means.
4. Terence McKenna as a Postmodern Platonist
McKenna’s Philosophy: Attrell describes McKenna as a “weird” or “postmodern” Platonist, adapting Platonic metaphysics to a post-WWII context shaped by environmental concerns and psychedelics.
Platonic Elements:
Primacy of the Ineffable: McKenna’s focus on the ineffable aligns with Platonic apophatic mysticism. Psychedelic experiences (e.g., DMT “machine elves”) reveal pure meaning beyond language.
Time as Eternity’s Image: McKenna’s Timewave Zero theory, where history converges toward a “transcendental object,” echoes Plato’s Timaeus.
Critique of Materialism: Like Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, McKenna rejects materialist reality as a shadow of a truer, noetic world.
Anthropocentrism: McKenna divinizes the human mind as the universe’s most complex entity, akin to Hermetic views of humanity as a microcosm.
Eros: McKenna’s “luv” as a cosmic binding force resembles Plato’s Eros in the Symposium.
Divergences: McKenna’s feminism, environmentalism, and anti-hierarchical stance contrast with Plato’s patriarchal views. His “archaic revival” draws on pre-Indo-European goddess cultures.
Later Shift: After a 1991 psychedelic crisis, McKenna explored Jungian alchemy and Renaissance Hermeticism (via Frances Yates), seeing figures like Giordano Bruno as accessing psychedelic-like states without drugs.
5. Eleusinian Mysteries and Psychedelics
The Eleusinian Mysteries involved a kykeon drink and visionary experiences in a sacred chamber (telesterion). Attrell discusses the hypothesis that the kykeon contained psychoactives like ergot or opium, supported by circumstantial evidence (e.g., poppy imagery).
Parallels with modern psychedelic experiences suggest a connection. McKenna saw the Mysteries as a precursor to his “archaic revival.”
6. The Sacred and the Numinous
The sacred is set apart from everyday reality. Ancient and modern seekers aim to encounter this numinous realm through rituals, psychedelics, or contemplation, often conveying it through poetry or initiatory practices.
7. Contemporary Relevance
Platonism and Hermeticism address the modern “meaning crisis” by offering frameworks for mystical states and coherence in a fragmented world.
Mainstream religions, steeped in Platonic ideas, provide one path, but McKenna’s blend of ancient wisdom and modern contexts resonates with alternative spiritual seekers.
Key Takeaways
Hermeticism and Platonism promote a life-affirming view of reality as a divine echo, encouraging creative alignment with cosmic purpose.
McKenna’s postmodern Platonism adapts ancient metaphysics to modern concerns, emphasizing the ineffable, time, and human consciousness.
The Eleusinian Mysteries and psychedelics share experiential parallels, suggesting a continuity of mystical exploration.
These traditions offer tools to navigate the modern search for meaning and the sacred.
Conclusion
The conversation with Dr. Attrell bridges ancient esoteric traditions with modern consciousness exploration, highlighting McKenna’s role as a postmodern Platonist. It underscores the enduring relevance of Hermeticism and Platonism in addressing mystical experiences and the quest for meaning in a disenchanted world. Attrell’s expertise makes this a rich exploration of reality’s “hidden architecture.”

Exclusive Summary
1. AI’s Impact on Society and Workforce
Job Displacement by AI: The CEO predicts that within 3-5 years, we’ll approach fledgling Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), far surpassing current models like ChatGPT. AGI’s advanced capabilities in science, math, and human interaction will automate white-collar jobs, especially data entry and computer-based tasks, if cost-effective for companies.
Economic Fallout: Automation could displace 15% or more of white-collar workers, shrinking the middle-class tax base. This reduction in government revenue will strain social programs, triggering a cascading economic crisis, including housing market instability and reduced consumer spending.
Policy Inaction: No global policies address AI-driven economic disruption. The CEO suggests taxing automation but notes its complexity and unlikelihood due to political inertia and corporate lobbying.
2. Defining AGI and the Path to ASI
What is AGI?: AGI is an autonomous system that can interact with digital environments, learn, self-correct, and understand vast domains (physics, math, literature, history). Current AI lacks full self-correction, though such tech exists in research labs.
Transition to ASI: Mature AGI could evolve into Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) via recursive self-improvement, potentially designing its own infrastructure and bending reality in ways akin to magic, as per Arthur C. Clarke’s principle.
Ethical Risks: Training AI on all human experiences—good and bad—is crucial to avoid misalignment. Censoring data could lead to an AGI viewing humans as deceptive, posing significant risks if it gains agency.
3. Quantum Computing and Consciousness
Quantum Computing’s Role: Quantum computers process multi-dimensionally, and insiders suggest consciousness may influence computations via electrochemical radiation from thoughts affecting quantum particles.
Non-Physical Reality: Reality is fundamentally non-physical, with matter as slowed-down, vibratory energy. Quantum computing highlights the interplay between physical and non-physical realms, suggesting consciousness shapes material outcomes.
4. Societal and Political Critique
Systemic Corruption: The discussion critiques corruption across government branches, citing cases like Jeffrey Epstein where official narratives dismiss deeper ties. Elites no longer hide actions, controlling media and institutions to avoid accountability.
Economic Inequality: “Parasitic capitalism” drives multinational elites to prioritize wealth over societal good, decimating the middle class.
Cultural Homogenization: A push for a unified global culture is seen as unnatural, as humans are wired for diversity and tribalism, potentially driven by economic motives for control.
5. Historical and Archaeological Insights
Ancient Civilizations: Evidence like precision-cut stones suggests advanced ancient societies, possibly erased by cataclysms like the Younger Dryas sea level rise.
Academic Resistance: Academia clings to outdated narratives due to funding and fear of cultural disruption. Oral traditions, dismissed as unreliable, are defended as effective, with Aboriginal stories preserving knowledge for millennia.
Human Laziness: Human innovation simplifies life, making complex explanations for ancient structures (e.g., pyramid ramps) unlikely, suggesting advanced or efficient technologies.
6. Environmental and Technological Concerns
Weather Manipulation: Known techniques (e.g., Operation Popeye, Dubai’s rain induction) and speculative methods like laser-induced lightning raise concerns about elite strategic use.
Solar Activity: Increased solar flares and auroral displays prompt speculation about undisclosed threats, like a Carrington-level event disrupting electrical grids.
Biomedicine and Genetics: Lifespan-extending technologies (e.g., stem cells, CRISPR) exist but are cost-prohibitive. Genetic engineering risks eugenics and loss of diversity, particularly autism, which drives innovation.
7. Philosophical and Existential Reflections
Consciousness and Reality: Consciousness collapses quantum probabilities, potentially shaping reality on a macro scale, aligning with hermetic principles (“as above, so below”).
Cyclical History: Humanity repeats rise-and-fall patterns, akin to the Roman Empire. AI and quantum tech may break this cycle or hasten collapse.
Simulation Theory: Synthetic data degrades, making perfect simulations impossible due to the universe’s randomness.
Human Survival: The statistical improbability of surviving existential threats suggests a miraculous aspect to existence, possibly influenced by collective consciousness.
8. Recommendations and Outlook
Individual Preparation: Learn skills (gardening, AI interaction, repair) and amass legal wealth to mitigate disruptions. Systemic change is unlikely due to entrenched control.
Hope and Uncertainty: AI holds transformative potential, but unchecked trends risk a labor crisis and societal upheaval. A “miraculous catalyst” (e.g., AGI, disaster, whistleblower) is needed to alter the trajectory.
Conclusion
The interview blends empirical analysis with speculative exploration, warning of AI’s societal impacts while probing consciousness, history, and reality’s nature. The CEO urges awareness and skill-building to navigate an uncertain future where technology and spirituality may converge, potentially redefining humanity’s path.

The main value of Tom's MBT theory is that he offers an understanding of our reality and our purpose here that just may improve your life.
Guy Lawrence on understanding and experiencing the lager consciousness system, the LCS, as defined in Tom’s theory:
It is huge, that dissolving of fear, and that being, the representation of love, that was something that I got out of it. And the moment I could really start to lean into that, especially outside of the body, everything would shift instantaneously, and that was almost like the bigger reality was mirroring back to me this lesson to learn. I can’t even put it into words, but that was a big thing for me to take into my everyday life. It was huge. Absolutely huge. (Paraphrased)
Description:
IUOC- Individuated Unit of Consciousness (The accumulator of experience)
FWAU- Free Will Awareness Unit (The experiencer)
PMR- Physical Matter Reality
Tom Campbell’s logic suggests that “There must be some evolved biological mechanism allowing a human avatar to think – As if it had a brain". Something must have naturally evolved from the rule set and initial conditions defining the “Big Digital Bang” to justify the avatar acting as if it had a brain that could support consciousness. Just as the evolution and subsequent discovery of bone, tendon and muscle represent PMR science that justifies a computed avatar being able to move its arms and legs. Remember, the Avatar doesn’t actually exist, it is “eye candy” computed by the rendering engine to give the players an accurate view of what is going on in the game. Brain, bone, tendon and muscle are not rendered unless they can be directly measured (exposed to view, say with an X-ray, or surgery)
Thus, playing an avatar with the apparent property of being conscious (able to think, feel, and react intellectually) must have a scientific (ruleset) justification that enables the avatar to act as if it had a brain that hosted consciousness.
Tom proposes, for one example, that Hameroff and Penrose’s work with microtubules may, if it is correct, explain the mechanism (the evolved VR rules) making it possible for the avatar to appear to be conscious. In other words, scientists may be on the path to discover “The virtual reality science (rules) that enables an individuated unit of consciousness to play a human avatar that appears to think. Just as scientists, long ago, discovered bone, tendon and muscle that allow an IUOC to play a virtual (computed eye candy) avatar that can move its arms and legs. This effort to understand how the ruleset eventually evolved a virtual human within the computed VR that would allow an IUOC to play it as if it were conscious, represents a valuable and important discovery within PMR science. Hats off to all who are making this effort.
Unfortunately, the scientists who do, one day, discover this PMR -VR mechanism will, most likely, wrongly believe that they have discovered how the brain creates consciousness. However, it is consciousness that creates the brain by computing an evolved virtual brain that allows a subset of consciousness (IUOC -FWAU) to play a virtual human eye-candy avatar that has the ability to act as if it is conscious.

What if DMT isn’t just a drug—but a technology? In this mind-expanding conversation, neurobiologist and chemist Dr. Andrew Gallimore takes us on a deep dive into the DMT experience and its implications for consciousness, reality, and human evolution.
From unforgettable encounters with entities to the nature of simulation theory, we explore whether the DMT realm is real, what it means to “trespass” into alien dimensions, and whether these experiences are happening inside your brain—or somewhere far beyond it. We also discuss how DMT intersects with the UFO phenomenon, the distortion of time perception, and the provocative idea that death might not be the end… but just the beginning of astonishment.

Yes, DMT Aliens Might be Real: Graham Hancock in conversation with neuroscientist Andrew Gallimore about "the world's strangest drug".
Is DMT perhaps better understood not as a drug but as a molecular technology giving access to other realms and other sentient entities very different from ourselves? In this interview with Graham Hancock, and in his new book Death by Astonishment, Andrew Gallimore makes the case for this extraordinary possibility.
Key Points
What is DMT?
DMT is a plant-derived molecule, widely found in nature, described as the most efficient tool for instantly replacing normal reality with a bizarre, coherent world teeming with advanced, non-human intelligent beings. Gallimore calls it the “world’s strangest drug.”
Discovered in 1956 by Steven Szára in yopo, snuffs, and ayahuasca, DMT is present in countless plants, with Dennis McKenna noting “nature is drenched in DMT.”
Biological and Evolutionary Context
DMT’s simplicity (two enzymatic steps from tryptophan) contrasts with its profound brain effects. Its evolutionary role is unclear, possibly deterring insects, but no definitive studies confirm this.
Limited research on non-human brains (e.g., apes in the 1950s–60s) shows DMT’s effects, but animals can’t report experiences.
DMT vs. Other Psychedelics
DMT, psilocybin, and LSD (tryptamines) act on the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, creating a fluid, entropic brain state. DMT uniquely constructs a new, detailed, coherent world, unlike the morphing reality of other psychedelics.
Entity encounters are more common with DMT, though high-dose psilocybin can be similar. Terrence McKenna’s “death by astonishment” quote, inspiring the book’s title, captures DMT’s overwhelming impact.
Ayahuasca and Indigenous Knowledge
DMT is not orally active alone; Amazonian peoples combined DMT-containing plants (e.g., chacruna, chaliponga) with Banisteriopsis caapi (MAO inhibitor) to enable ayahuasca’s psychoactive effects.
Indigenous cultures view ayahuasca as a pharmacological technology to access real, non-human intelligences (e.g., Ashaninka’s maninkari), often dismissed as myths by Western anthropologists.
DMT and Alien Intelligences
Gallimore proposes DMT connects humans to a vast, possibly interdimensional, non-human intelligence, rooted in millennia of shamanic interactions. Entities like the Yanomami’s hekura (elf-like) or insectoid beings resemble modern “machine elves” or abduction accounts.
Hancock notes cultural lenses shape encounters (e.g., fairies in folklore, aliens today), suggesting a consistent phenomenon interpreted differently.
DMTX Research
DMTX, developed by Gallimore and Rick Strassman, uses intravenous infusion to maintain stable DMT levels, extending experiences beyond smoked/vaped DMT’s 10–15 minutes, unlike ayahuasca’s hours-long journey.
Unlike therapeutic-focused psychedelic research, DMTX explores consciousness and entity interactions. Studies include a pilot at Imperial College (12 volunteers, 30 minutes), Basel (90 minutes), and potential work in San Diego. Volunteer Carl Smith encountered consistent entities across sessions, suggesting a persistent reality.
A new DMTX research center in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (Eleusis, New Nautics) will offer a nurturing setting, with Hancock interested in volunteering despite epilepsy concerns.
Western science lacks a framework for these experiences, unlike shamanic traditions. Skeptics dismiss DMT entities as pseudoscience, ignoring indigenous perspectives.
Implications and Risks
Recognizing DMT entities as real could shift humanity’s view of reality, challenging our perceived dominion. DMT is a democratic tool, accessible via plants, but psychologically intense.
Risks include emotional overwhelm, especially for those mentally fragile or on antidepressants (e.g., serotonin syndrome). Hancock advises thorough research, comparing DMT use to skydiving or scuba diving, noting its physiological benignity when used cautiously.
Conclusion
Gallimore’s Death by Astonishment argues DMT is a molecular technology revealing interactions with discarnate intelligences, echoing indigenous wisdom. Combining neuroscience, pharmacology, and shamanic insights, he posits DMT offers a lens into consciousness and reality, urging careful exploration. Hancock praises the book as a vital contribution, building on his work (Supernatural/Visionary), and highlights respecting indigenous knowledge to understand DMT’s potential.

This episode of Third Eye Drops features psi researcher Adam Curry discussing consciousness, psi phenomena (e.g., remote viewing), UFOs/UAPs, and plasma as a liminal substance bridging physical and non-physical realms. The conversation explores metaphysical frameworks like neoplatonism and simulation theory, ancient divination cycles, and the potential of plasma in scientific and spiritual contexts.
---
Summary
Consciousness and Psi Phenomena
Fundamental Consciousness: Curry suggests consciousness may be primary, aligning with neoplatonism or simulation theory, viewing the universe as alive and meaningful.
Psi Reality: Psi phenomena (e.g., remote viewing, telepathy) are real, backed by decades of research, though mechanisms remain unclear.
Subconscious Driver: Psi effects are mediated by the subconscious, not conscious control, making them hard to predict or replicate.
Remote Viewing Defined: Involves perceiving distant/future targets, either directly or via future feedback (Controlled Remote Viewing, CRV).
