The Wisdom of Terence McKenna

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.”

Terence McKenna suggests that nature rewards bravery and commitment. He posits that when individuals wholeheartedly pursue seemingly impossible goals, external obstacles diminish. This transformative process, likened to a “shamanic dance,” involves embracing risk and discovering unexpected support. McKenna argues that influential thinkers understood this principle, implying that achieving extraordinary things requires a courageous leap into the unknown. By daring to dream big and acting decisively, individuals can experience a reality that uplifts rather than suppresses them. This perspective emphasizes the power of intention and the universe’s responsiveness to bold action.

These were his last words. “It’s all about love… Making someone else’s life a bit easier, I know this now.”
