The role of the psychedelic guide is perhaps the most exciting and inspiring role in society. He is literally a liberator, one who provides illumination, one who frees men from their life-long internal bondage.

To be present at the moment of awakening, to share the ecstatic revelation when the voyager discovers the wonder and awe of the divine life process, is for many the most gratifying part to play in the evolutionary drama.

The role of the psychedelic guide has a built in protection against professionalism and didactic oneupmanship. The psychedelic liberation is so powerful that it far outstrips earthly game ambitions. Awe and gratitude -rather than pride -are the rewards of this new profession.
