Dear laura aDd Aldous,
Thank you both tor your IIIOSt walc""", aDd triendly lettars.
Borry tor the lepse from this end. The pace ot events 1s at least
hectic.
Lst 1118 tall you about SOlll8 ot the things that are ongo1llg,
drug-vise, in this locale. E'VSn ve had a tamporary P1lA "ballg-up."
It VBS relet1vely quickly resolved. The entire NIH has now been
exempted from the nev regulat10ns regard1ng hUlll8n research vith
expar1lllSntal drugs--subject to the suparv1s1on ot our awn _1eal
board. This lettar body now has under oons1derat1on a blanket
proposal to oover lIlulti-d1sc1pl1nary invest1gation or UlD, psllocin,
and the shortar-acting tryptam1ne derivativee. We vrota 1t gener­ally
enough to cover pract1cally anything, but there 1s enough
"hard so1ence" at the core to IIl8ke IllS opt1m1st1c about gett1llg
UDdervay on a number ot tronts 111 short order. For ~elt, I'm
atra1d I have backed away s""",what frOlll 1Il0re sensit1ve 1ssuss (at
least in Jttr awn baok yard) aDd plan to proceed tirst on sOlllSthing
l1ke "tbe psychophys101ogy ot drug-induced ecstasy," although
I 011 undoubtedly be involved at othar levels. !lot tbe slll811est
part ot Jttr Opt1m1SIll, add1tionally, derives trOlll the rether high­level
support which the drugs have now enlisted. Dr. Robert
Coban (whose name should be tam111ar to you from the various
book outl1nes), who sits very close to the top ot the !IDIll
hierarchy, recently tried UlD tor the t1rst t1lllS. (Ils had been
spoon-ted tor the exparience by eareful read1ng ot all the pro­jected
anthology contributions.) As he reported to 1118, more or
less apologetically, he did not bave a "transcendental" exper­ience.
(I excused hilll.) HoWeVer, he 1Il0st detin1taly d1d teel it
was unusually 1ns1ght-prov1d1llg and rewarding, and 1s keen on
eXl/loring therapaut1c potant1al1ties. By the way cO!llll8nt I Jttr
teel1ng 18 that Westarn psychiatr1sts are poor prospacts tor
"selt-less" experience; "ego" 18 4uat too basio to the therapeutic
1deology. In this respect, interestingly enollgb, I euspact that
psychiatrists lIl8y constitute one ot the IIlOst rigidly ego-ed
groups 1n our culture--that 18, that they are quita conservat1ve
culture-bearers in this regard.

Dear laura aDd Aldous,
Thank you both tor your IIIOSt walc""", aDd triendly lettars.
Borry tor the lepse from this end. The pace ot events 1s at least
hectic.
Lst 1118 tall you about SOlll8 ot the things that are ongo1llg,
drug-vise, in this locale. E'VSn ve had a tamporary P1lA "ballg-up."
It VBS relet1vely quickly resolved. The entire NIH has now been
exempted from the nev regulat10ns regard1ng hUlll8n research vith
expar1lllSntal drugs--subject to the suparv1s1on ot our awn _1eal
board. This lettar body now has under oons1derat1on a blanket
proposal to oover lIlulti-d1sc1pl1nary invest1gation or UlD, psllocin,
and the shortar-acting tryptam1ne derivativee. We vrota 1t gener­ally
enough to cover pract1cally anything, but there 1s enough
"hard so1ence" at the core to IIl8ke IllS opt1m1st1c about gett1llg
UDdervay on a number ot tronts 111 short order. For ~elt, I'm
atra1d I have backed away s""",what frOlll 1Il0re sensit1ve 1ssuss (at
least in Jttr awn baok yard) aDd plan to proceed tirst on sOlllSthing
l1ke "tbe psychophys101ogy ot drug-induced ecstasy," although
I 011 undoubtedly be involved at othar levels. !lot tbe slll811est
part ot Jttr Opt1m1SIll, add1tionally, derives trOlll the rether high­level
support which the drugs have now enlisted. Dr. Robert
Coban (whose name should be tam111ar to you from the various
book outl1nes), who sits very close to the top ot the !IDIll
hierarchy, recently tried UlD tor the t1rst t1lllS. (Ils had been
spoon-ted tor the exparience by eareful read1ng ot all the pro­jected
anthology contributions.) As he reported to 1118, more or
less apologetically, he did not bave a "transcendental" exper­ience.
(I excused hilll.) HoWeVer, he 1Il0st detin1taly d1d teel it
was unusually 1ns1ght-prov1d1llg and rewarding, and 1s keen on
eXl/loring therapaut1c potant1al1ties. By the way cO!llll8nt I Jttr
teel1ng 18 that Westarn psychiatr1sts are poor prospacts tor
"selt-less" experience; "ego" 18 4uat too basio to the therapeutic
1deology. In this respect, interestingly enollgb, I euspact that
psychiatrists lIl8y constitute one ot the IIlOst rigidly ego-ed
groups 1n our culture--that 18, that they are quita conservat1ve
culture-bearers in this regard.
