Anarchy in the Inner Landscape: Buddhism, Psychedelics, and Personal Growth
You can’t have an effective movement when you’re weighed down by emotional baggage! Your own neuroses are more noxious than tear gas, and there is no infiltrator more insidious than the cop inside your head. With this in mind, personal growth is not a luxury but a necessity. As we struggle against the various systems of domination & hierarchy out in the world, let us also be aware of how the underlying mentality of domination and hierarchy shows itself within our own psyches as well. In this workshop we will discuss some tried and true methods for overcoming the habitual behavior that leads us to self-sabotage our lives, strain our relationships and affinity groups, and render us more acquiescent to authority and likely to reproduce patterns of domination. We’ll weigh the pros and cons of various paths to personal growth which we have experienced, which include Vipassana (Buddhist) meditation, Ayahuasca (psychedelic) shamanism, Focusing, Nonviolent Communication, and Emotional Freedom Techniques. By Ian Mayes and Nexus X Humectress at the 2011 New York City Anarchist Book Fair
