- In this speech Shulgin explains 'Why I do what I Do.'
4:30 "First, I am a very firm believer in the reality of balance in all aspects of the human theater."
5:21 "One definition of the tools I seek is that they may allow words of a vocabulary, a vocabulary that might allow each human being to more consciously - and more clearly - communicate with the interior of his own mind and psyche. This may be called a vocabulary of awareness."
12:08 [After a discussion of nuclear weapons.] "And to have such power leads to the threat to use such power, which -- in time -- will actually lead to its use. But, as I have said earlier, when one thing develops, there seems to spring forth a balancing, a compensatory counterpart. This balance can be realized with the psychedelic drugs. What had been simply tools for the study of psychosis (at best), or for escapist self-gratification (at worst), suddenly assumed the character of tools of enlightenment, and of some form of transcendental communication."
13:45 "But I feel - along with many others - that the efforts being invested in the technology of destruction does not allow sufficient time. It is possibly only with the psychedelic drugs that words of vocabulary can be established, which might tunnel through the subconscious between the conflicting aspects of the mind and psyche. It is here that I feel my skill lies, and this is exactly why I do what I do."
26:03 "My personal philosophy might well be lifted directly from Blake: 'I must create a system, or be enslaved by another man's.' I may be wrong, but I must do what I'm doing, and I will do what I can as fast as I can."

The wizard . Genius. I like his methods. He tells it like it is. The other scientists only tell us what happens to rats .
This guy will be missed
I wish I was his lab rat😊😊😊
Amazing individual. Very inspiring. He was ahead of his time - and well aware of it.
" I understood that our entire universe is contained in the mind and the spirit. We may choose not to find access to it, we may even deny its existence, but it is indeed there inside us, and there are chemicals that can catalyze its availability" /Alexander Shulgin
Rest in peace, Sasha. I'm sure his smile will go on out there forever
Mixed 2ci and 2cb the other night. Me and my friend couldnt find any other report on it so we decided to be pioneers . It was beautiful. Nothing but smiles , laughs , tears and a kaleidoscope of colors.

We love and miss u Sasha. Thanku for making me the man I am today. I will forever live by the mushroom and die by the mushroom till I am no more.
One of the most important men of the 20th century. Rest In Peace!
A true pioneer in the field of consciousness expansion.
Well said

You inspire me Dr. Shulgin.
Sasha was amazing! Very heartfelt ending! 🙏🏻❤️
Thank u mr and ms Shulgin.
What a man you were Sasha, a very intelligent man indeed. most would be surprised he invented many powerful psychedelics that he tested out on himself. That really shows he knew what he was doing. I feel quite privileged to have tried some of Shulgins wonders.
What a great man!!!
a pioneer in the greatest sense of the word
This man...this man
...wow!!
He such a legend this guy.
Thank you for all of your work, inspiration and impact Mr. Shulgin
Agreed this is an amazing guy and a great sense of humor. I love catching his little jokes.
My man Shulgin was very clearly a jungian of some variety
He was a scientist, can't be both. it's just impossible.
RIP. A great man who is missed!!
