S1:E25 | Prof. Carl A. P. Ruck | The Perceiver Creates Reality
Description
Boston University Professor Carl Ruck joined me a few years back to discuss his long life and experiences. Born in 1935 in Bridgeport, Ct., Carl realized early on an academic prowess that steered him eventually into and through the Ivy League. He was a participant in the psychedelic revolution of the 60s and 70s and found himself amongst those studying it. In his abundant writings over the years, he coined the term "entheogen" to remove the social stigma then-associated with psychedelic pharmaceuticals. We hear about his journey into academia, the Classic Traditions of societal development and language throughout history, about memory, trauma, reality, and lived experiences. He found himself in the realm of the archetypes many years ago, and reminds us now that death "is a pity, but not a disaster."
