Psychedelics and Philosophy: Peter Sjöstedt-H on Reality, Morality, and Consciousness
I do speculate about psychedelics being able to give one a glimpse of noumena. And if that is the case, then of course psychedelics can allow for greater perception of reality, because it's emphasizing those elements which are usually as it were.
Ever wondered how psychedelics could change your perception of reality? In this episode of 'Change Truth', host Carl Christensen sits down with philosopher Peter Sjöstedt-H to explore the fascinating intersection of psychedelics and philosophy. Peter, an advocate for the responsible use of psychedelics, dives into how these substances can offer new insights into what is real and true. They discuss how much of our reality is filtered through our senses and how psychedelics might help us see beyond these filters.
The conversation doesn't stop there; it branches into topics like morality, power dynamics, and the intriguing ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche. Ever heard of panpsychism or wondered about the consciousness of other species? This episode has you covered. Peter also touches on the perception of time and how psychedelics might alter it.
