In part four of the Terence McKenna workshop about imagination he discusses the ego, Novelty Theory, and the possibility that time is not uniform. As he says, "The Timewave is not occult, but it is not science as we have done it these past 500 years, because it assumes that one of our primary intuitions is actually true; the intuition that every moment is unique [time is not uniform]. It treats that as the central starting point for an entirely new metaphysics of being." ... "The way you investigate time is by moving inward, by investigating metabolism. The human body is a knot in time." ... Also included is part of a conversation with Allan Lundell, Nick Herbert and few friends.

In this third podcast of Terence McKenna's workshop on imagination, he picks up the pace and speaks to a dozen or more new topics. Not only does he explain what he calls 'McKenna's Five Percent Rule', he also gives us McKenna's Law: "As you advance in social hierarchy the percentage of smart people does not increase. ... Every human situation is bedeviled by morons. No matter how high you rise you're surrounded by fools, and you're lucky if you're not one of them. That's the basic thing to guard against." Plus he returns briefly to his critique of culture and says among other things, "Culture is a simplification and a lie. It's the currency by which fools navigate the world. Smart people get beyond it."

McKenna has an ever so "sweet" dream.
