Christopher M. Bache's "LSD and the Mind of the Universe"

[Gneh Onebar]

Woohoo! Bache's book about his 73 high-dose LSD sessions is now available. My copy arrived this morning.  

Quote from the cover:

"On November 24, 1979, Christopher M. Bache took the first step on what would become a life-changing journey. Drawing from his training as a philosopher of religion, Bache set out to explore his mind and the mind of the universe as deeply and systematically as possible - with the help of the psychedelic drug LSD. Following protocols established by Stanislav Grof, Bache's 73 high-dose LSD sessions over the course of 20 years drew him into a deepening communion with cosmic Consciousness."

@electroBeam  You're welcome.  

[Cocolove]

let us know how you like it

[Gneh Onebar]

@Cocolove  I will do that.

Awesome. His work, or rather exploration really resonates for me. Did some lsd trips myself after hearing him, and got similar patters/cycles as he described as with his cycles through rebirth-cosmic union- x -x, which was really cool.
Excited to read his book, thank you:)

@Waken  Cool, yeah his trip reports are amazing! But the dosage is extremely high - at least from my perpective - if you follow the modalities of Stan Grof's therapeutic protocol like he did. Low-dose psycholytic therapy goes from 75 to 300 mcg (typically around 200) and high-dose from 300 to 500 mcg. The most I did until now is 150 mcg lol.

Thanks for mentioning this book.

Purchasing it now

[Gneh Onebar]

@herghly  It will be worth it.  

[Gneh Onebar]

There are also a lot of interesting videos with him on YouTube:

Yeah. I did only 125 maximum and that was already life-changing experience. 

But I tried 5meo once with a breakthrough, so I feel what is there in a high dose range. 

Anyway, wanted to thanks for sharing.

I'm really interested in this too @Gneh Onebar please let us know how you like the book!

[Gneh Onebar]

@Consilience You're welcome.

@dimitri Cool, I had a breakthrough on mushrooms.

@outlandish I will let you know. By the way: In the last video I shared Bache gives a pretty good overview of the different chapters of his book.
