About this product

Product Information

This mesmerizing, surreal account of the bizarre adventures of Terence McKenna, his brother Dennis, and a small band of their friends, is a wild ride of exotic experience and scientific inquiry. Exploring the Amazon Basin in search of mythical shamanic hallucinogens, they encounter a host of unusual characters -- including a mushroom, a flying saucer, pirate Mantids from outer space, an appearance by James and Nora Joyce in the guise of poultry, and translinguistic matter -- and discover the missing link in the development of human consciousness and language.

Great read for any fan of Entheogenic Exploration!!!
Someone first getting acquainted with Terence McKenna probably has listened to some of his theories on novelty, time, and psychedelics and would like to dive deeper into his ideas by exploring his written works. In that case, the books "The Invisible Landscape", "Food of the Gods", and "The Archaic Revival" would be the most direct path. However if you have a place in your heart for Terence then it would eventually be necessary to read "True Hallucinations". This is the true story of his journeys to the Amazon jungle in 1971, an expedition which started out in search of the shamanic brew ayahuasca. The travelers, Terence, his brother Dennis, and three friends, are quickly taken in a different direction--the mushrooms. The mushrooms are a constant presence in the rest of the story. Not only ... Someone first getting acquainted with Terence McKenna probably has listened to some of his theories on novelty, time, and psychedelics and would like to dive deeper into his ideas by exploring his written works. In that case, the books "The Invisible Landscape", "Food of the Gods", and "The Archaic Revival" would be the most direct path. However if you have a place in your heart for Terence then it would eventually be necessary to read "True Hallucinations". This is the true story of his journeys to the Amazon jungle in 1971, an expedition which started out in search of the shamanic brew ayahuasca. The travelers, Terence, his brother Dennis, and three friends, are quickly taken in a different direction--the mushrooms. The mushrooms are a constant presence in the rest of the story. Not only are there fresh specimens scattered plentifully across the jungle floor, but the group appears to be in the presence of what Terence calls "an Other". He and Dennis go into a frenzied state of figuring out what the hell it could be and how they might try to understand more about it. Of course this means lots more mushrooms, and they also use harmine for a combinatory effect. This culminates in "the experiment at La Correra", after which Dennis appears to depart from reality for two solid weeks. Terence gives the details on how he got his ideas on novelty and time, which came to him by hints from the "Other" after what appeared to be an encounter with a flying saucer. The body of ideas that he developed during this time resulted in novelty theory and the Timewave construction out of the King Wen sequence of I Ching hexagrams. Terence eventually came back from the Amazon and wrote "The Invisible Landscape" with Dennis in 1975. Another important story that is told in this book is how Terence and Dennis developed a successful technique of home-cultivation of psilocybin mushrooms. This resulted in the first step-by-step guide in 1976, "Psilocybin: Magic Mushroom Grower's Guide", which started the underground industry. This work has been carried on with a tribute to the McKenna's contributions to the study of mushroom cultivation in the book "Psilocybin: Mushroom Handbook" by Nichols and Ogame. I really enjoyed this book because it is a good example of how someone's view of the world and reality and ultimately their path in life can change dramatically if consciousness suddenly raises to very high levels. I know personally what this can be like, so for me this was an amazing story. This last aspect puts "True Hallucinations" into a rare class of books which tell a story of personal transcendence, this one being historically and philosophically similar to Robert Anton Wilson's "Cosmic Trigger" and Philip K. Dick's "Valis/Exegesis". Peace!
