Do You Know Terence McKenna?

Recommended Posts

Recently, I've been completely indulged in his work. If you've never heard of him, I recommend looking up some of his quotes, or maybe watching some fanmade movies about him on YouTube. 

Terence was an ethnobotanist, mystic, psychonaut, lecturer, author, and an advocate for the responsible use of naturally occurring psychedelic plants. Nevertheless, he spoke and wrote of several other topics. He has a lot of really amazing ideas surrounding him and his research.

I learned about ethnobotany through this man, and I am amazed. Ethnobotany is the study of the relationship between people and plants. It's an important science that is still practiced, of course. Sadly, the art of ethnobotany is dying. The poetic nature of the dependency on plants for mankind. This is one of his topics he specialized in, but there are several others.

If you are interesting in learning about Terence McKenna, I suggest a few resources:
Youtube Movie 1/2
Youtube Movie 2/2

If you already know of/now know of him, feel free to discuss your thoughts.
