In this episode, I am joined by Lama Mike Crowley to discuss his latest book Psychedelic Buddhism: A User’s Guide to Traditions, Symbols, and Ceremonies. In a wide-ranging conversation, Lama Mike talks about the congruence of expression between Buddhism and the psychedelic experience, the history of Soma or Amrita in the Indian Vedic tradition, the role of psychedelics in Vajrayana Buddhism, and the psychedelic initiation of tantra.
