We Lost Our Rites of Passage, Why This Generation is Lost. - Doug Red Hail Pineda - #166

<p>Doug Red Hail Pineda — founder of The Church of Psychedelics — on plant medicine, oil and pharma, and the rites of passage we stopped giving our kids.</p><p>• Colorado looks progressive. The people are. The politicians and the oil companies are not.• Hemp is food, fuel, and fiber. CBD is still treated like heroin.• Recreational trip vs spiritual container — same plant, different result• We have no rites of passage. A 10-year-old never has to milk the cow.• Assume positive intent. Extinguish the fire. Don’t fuel it.• If microdosing gives you anxiety, it’s probably the product — not you.• Spirituality is agency. Religion is the structure.• Respond. Don’t react.</p><p>TIMELINE• 00:00 — Coming up• 01:00 — Who Doug is• 03:20 — Colorado: people vs politicians• 07:40 — Religious freedom and sacrament• 11:00 — Why Texas banned hemp• 14:40 — 85-cent gasoline and a plant that threatens two industries• 17:20 — First psychedelics — Lakota church and the campfire bag• 22:00 — What fracking leaves under your house• 28:00 — We have no rites of passage• 32:00 — When the weave can hold water• 35:40 — The braid that isn’t on his head• 44:00 — Random acts of kindness• 46:40 — Assume positive intent• 48:20 — Extinguish the fire• 55:20 — The hypocrisy of “drugs are bad”• 1:02:00 — MDMA, solvents, and dirty molecules• 1:04:00 — Why the microdose is giving him anxiety• 1:07:40 — Strain matters more than dose• 1:14:50 — A spiritual being having a human experience• 1:18:00 — Spirituality is not religion• 1:19:00 — Kill the apathy• 1:22:00 — Respond.
