  • Practical Mysticism IV. The Pharmacopoeia of The Soul

    by Brent Newman ...
    The core of Huxley's argument rests on the idea that the brain and nervous system function primarily as a "reducing valve." Evolution, he posited, did not design the mind to perceive the totality of reality; such an unfiltered flood of information would be biologically useless and likely fatal.

  • Practical Mysticism III. The Desert and The Doorway

    by Brent Newman ...
    The dual residency between the lush, spiritual sanctuary of Ojai and the stark, existential laboratory of the Mojave created a new internal topography. He was living in the tension between the garden and the wilderness. Ojai had taught him how to feel, but the Mojave was teaching him how to see.

    by Brent Newman ...
    The stability Huxley envisioned was a stagnant pool. He often told an anecdote about a friend who was obsessed with the idea of a perfect day, planned down to the minute.

In the World State, every impulse is satisfied ... Read more

  • Practical Mysticism V. The Final Blueprint

    by Brent Newman ...
    While soma reinforces the ego's desire for comfort and isolation from truth, the moksha-medicine is designed to dissolve the ego, allowing the individual to see the world without the filters of conditioning. This represents Huxley's shift from fearing the pharmacological manipulation of the mind to believing in its potential for spiritual liberation. It is the difference between a sedative that ...
