The Accordion Metaphor and Integrating Psychedelic Lessons

What if the world you see every day is only a thin layer over a far more expansive reality? In this conversation with visionary artists Alex Grey and Allyson Grey, your perception of consciousness, identity, and the unseen dimensions of existence will be stretched beyond the familiar... We explore interdimensional beings, psychedelics, reincarnation, and the possibility that we choose to forget our connection to source. Alex and Allyson share their transformative experience of infinite love energy, reflect on their awakening, and examine art as a channel for the divine imagination, compassion, and human evolution.
