“Chaos is what we've lost touch with. This is why it is given a bad name. It is feared by the dominant archetype of our world, which is Ego, which clenches because its existence is defined in terms of control.”
- Terence McKenna, attributed

"In the end, McKenna, the Stoics, Buddhists, Taoists, and Heraclitus are all pointing us toward the same truth: to live fully, we must learn to dance with chaos, not run from it. We must let go of our rigid need for control and open ourselves to the wild, untamed, and unpredictable flow of life. Only then can we truly understand the deeper currents that shape our existence, the very sections of life where chaos and order intertwine."
