Terence Mckenna
I type him as my identical: Ne-IEE. I feel like I'm on the same wavelength with this guy on our ideas about reality and society. However, he had managed to experience and push the boundaries of reality to levels I can only imagine and explain it rather lucidly as well. I could be wrong and I'm open to him being other types. What do you guys think?

I've been late to the Terrance Mckenna party. Had been avoiding him for years, listening and studying other people.
Found some youtube vids and he is so easy to listen to.
Ne is a good start.
I awoke to the cultural programming in my mid teens. It goes deep, not superficially.

The decisive thing is not the reality of the object, but the reality of the subjective factor, i.e. the primordial images, which in their totality represent a psychic mirror-world. It is a mirror, however, with the peculiar capacity of representing the present contents of consciousness not in their known and customary form but in a certain sense sub specie aeternitatis, somewhat as a million-year old consciousness might see them.

In the common term of phrase: Blown away by his lectures right now.
so/sp seems more likely now

Mckenna on Shamanism
“A shaman is someone who has been to the end, it’s someone who knows how the world really works, and knowing how the world really works means to have risen outside, above, beyond the dimensions of ordinary space, time, and casuistry, and actually seen the wiring under the board. Stepped outside the confines of learned culture and learned and embedded language, into the domain of what Wittgenstein called “the unspeakable”. The transcendental presence of the other, which can be absanctioned, in various ways, to yield systems of knowledge which can be brought back into ordinary social space for the good of the community. So, in the context of ninety percent of human culture, the shaman has been the agent of evolution, because the shaman learns the techniques to go between ordinary reality and the domain of the ideas. This higher dimensional continuum that is somehow parallel to us, available to us, and yet is ordinarily occluded by cultural convention out of fear of the mystery. I believe, and what shamans are, I believe, are people who have been able to de-condition themselves from the community’s instinctual distrust of the mystery, and to go into it, to go into this bewildering higher dimension, and gain knowledge, recover the jewel lost at the beginning of time, to save souls, cure, commune with the ancestors and so forth and so on.”
