Exploring the Sacred and the Psychedelic: A Community Discussion-Association for Spiritual Integrity

An open and respectful discussion on the intersection of entheogens and spirituality.

In this community meeting, we:

•⁠ Discussed the use of psychedelics in eliciting state experiences and how that relates to spiritual stage development.

•⁠ Shared ⁠personal experiences and stories of psychedelic-assisted spiritual growth.

•⁠ ⁠Explored the risks and potential misuse of psychedelics in spiritual contexts.

•⁠ Shared thoughts about the integration and responsible use of psychedelics in spiritual practice.

All perspectives were welcomed and respected.

This discussion aimed to foster a deeper understanding of entheogens and encourage an open dialogue on all related issues.

Guiding Principles:

•⁠ ⁠Respect for diverse perspectives

•⁠ ⁠Inclusivity and accessibility

•⁠ ⁠Harm reduction and responsible use

The meeting was lightly facilitated by Kimberley Lafferty. An enlightening and thought-provoking conversation!

Disclaimer: ASI neither advocates for nor endorses the use of entheogens. We are organizing this webinar—and developing a new code of ethics for psychedelics—because entheogens have long been integral to many indigenous spiritual traditions, their use in Western spiritual and therapeutic contexts has surged in recent years, and there is a significant need for ethical guidance.
