About this Quote

This quote by Stanislav Grof recommends that powerful experiences can take place without making use of psychedelics, which this is a global sensation. He is indicating that these experiences are not limited to those who take psychedelics, but can take place to any individual, regardless of whether they are seeking such an experience or not. This can be taken a warning to those that are taking into consideration taking psychedelics, as it recommends that effective experiences can take place without them, which they need to be prepared for the prospective consequences. It might likewise be interpreted as a pointer that powerful experiences can be found in everyday life, and that we must be open to them.
