We riff on the surprising connections between the esoteric, Platonism, and Hermeticism, and Terence McKenna. Why do ancient metaphysics \u2014 ideas like the One, the daimon, and the chain of being \u2014 still resonate in the age of UFOs, and simulation theory? What does Terence McKenna have to do with this? Does be belong in the lineage of Platonists? We also dive into: The hidden structure of reality, visionary entity encounters, how ancient esoteric philosophy maps onto modern mystical experience, why symbols, language, and consciousness are gateways to higher worlds. If you're curious about the intersections between ancient wisdom, consciousness, psychedelics, and the nature of reality, this mind meld is for you. \ud83e\udd70 Support TED and join the community on Patreon \ud83c\udfa7 Sub and Review on Apple Podcasts&amp;nbsp; \ud83c\udfa7 Sub and Review on Spotify &amp;nbsp;\ud83d\udc41Watch and Subscribe on Youtube \ud83c\udf00 Website&amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"THIRD EYE DROPS","author_url":"http:\/\/www.thirdeyedrops.com","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/37624545\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/6cccdc\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/37624545"}
