[00:17.489][Male voice]
[00:38.962]The LSD trip is a pilgrimage
[00:44.918]far out beyond your normal mind,
[00:49.568]into that risky
[00:53.303]and revelatory territory
[00:58.240]which has been explored
[01:01.427]for thousands of years
[01:07.618]by mystics and visionary philosophers
[01:49.231][Female voice]
[01:52.053]Well I never think that
[01:53.933]when I'm twenty-one, I'm twenty-one -
[01:55.893]I think of tomorrow or this minute...
[02:00.856]And hope there's a tomorrow,
[02:04.853]'cause I don't like what's going on in the world.
[02:07.282]I'm scared of that,
[02:08.823]more than drugs. I'm not afraid of them...
[02:14.440]I'm just... I'm just scared you know?
[02:20.500][Male voice]
[02:22.903]We're told
[02:26.012]that perhaps a million Americans,
[02:29.982]most of them young people,
[02:32.882]have made the LSD experience part of their lives.
[02:38.368]Is this a social menace and a cause for alarm?
[02:42.913]I don't think so.
[02:45.708]I see nothing less
[02:48.242]than the speedy evolution
[02:51.873]of a new, indigenous religion
[03:23.246][Female voice]
[03:25.231]I'm just... I'm just scared you know?
[03:29.254]Everybody is... pretty uptight
[03:55.664]I'm just... I'm just scared...you know?
[03:57.937][Male voice]
[04:01.986]The LSD religionist knows;
[04:07.289]that the temple of worship is the human body,
[04:15.151]that the shrine must be located,
[04:18.730]not in a public place,
[04:21.055]but in the privacy of your own home,
[04:27.168]and that the congregation cannot extend
[04:32.314]beyond your family and your closest friends...
[05:16.591][Female voice]
[05:19.987]...And then the paintings on the walls were dripping.
[05:22.835]You know...
[05:23.697]you could see the paint coming down like this,
[05:25.760]just like if somebody was hosing it off
[05:27.693]at the top and all the paint was running down onto the floor.
[05:30.854]And it was so pretty...they were running.
[05:34.747]Like they were melting!
[05:37.045]It was groovy...
[09:56.859][Female voice]
[09:59.863]It was like a... it was like a massage.
[10:02.084]It was so... it was so groovy, you can't believe how groovy...
[10:04.722]it wasn't just water hitting you,
[10:06.289]taking a shower, soap and out you go,
[10:07.726]you know, towel off.
[10:08.902]It was just... oh wow!
[10:11.018]You know it was like... it was like...
[10:13.395]it was like a caress.
[10:14.962]You know kind of...
[10:16.869]and you could really feel the hot and the cold.
[10:19.298]You could feel hot "hot" and cold "cold", you know and...
[10:22.825]and each little drop that came out was a different one,
[10:24.706]you know... it wasn't...
[10:25.933]I don't think the water must mix inside.
[10:27.736]It must come out hot and cold or something,
[10:30.139]'cos you could feel hot cold hot cold all over you.
[10:32.255]It was really groovy
[10:34.031]I guess... it was...
[10:35.207]I guess the word for it is sensual...
[10:37.244]you know just... your body just oh!
[10:39.491]It grooved!
[11:28.444][Accented female voice]
[11:31.422]For psychedelics are stimulators of ideas and feelings,
[11:36.281]but generally these ideas and feelings
[11:40.043]would express themselves constructively
[11:42.289]rather than violently or destructively
[11:53.391]If it were possible during a riot
[11:57.754]to spray small doses of LSD
[12:00.105]from a helicopter into the air...
[12:09.143]People would soon quieten...
[16:07.328][Male voice]
[17:18.511]Is this trip really necessary?...
