anonymous members of the guild of guides

In order that we might have candid and revealing conversations- these presenter’s identities remain anonymous.

We bring you transcribed conversations with practitioners from the Guild of Guides. This includes: practitioners in the ayahuasca and teonancatl shamanic traditions who describe their training and practice, psychotherapists who use psychedelics in support of their clients, producers of electronic dance music events who intentionally curate events for psychedelically enhanced participants, and others who use psychoactives for the betterment of well people.

Below is the short biography of one of these practitioners who we present in an audio format on the Kajabi platform.

This is intended to gives you the sense of who Guild members are.

“Anonymous” is in his 80s and has advanced degrees in psychology and anthropology. He was re- introduced to psychedelics in a ritual and ceremonial way by Ralph Metzner who became his guide and mentor in the 1970’s. Much of our conversation with him seeks to illuminate for a broader audience the practical expression of Ralph Metzner’s methodology.

He began leading groups and individual sessions in 1980. In the Sixties, he was engaged in a disciplined spiritual practice and has maintained a life long contemplative practice.

He is a true psychonaut who has explored the landscape of mind expanding practices and substances. In keeping with Ralph Metzner’s legacy, he offers guided experiences enhanced by entheogens using the psychedelic molecules: MDMA, 2CB, ketamine, mushrooms, LSD, san pedro cactus and 5-MeO-DMT.
