"New York Democ111ts are controlled by the Tammany
Tiger." "The Republican Party wUI soon be televising party
conventions from the Hollywood Palace with a star-studded
cast." Senseless? Cet-tainly. But many of the situations into
which American politics have evolved, admit of no easy
answers or dismissals. Today citizens are faced with the
monumental task of nnaly~ing and interpreting, hopefully
to some degree of success, which candidates are worthy of
election, our involvement in Viet Nam, the question of bus­sing
childt·en to schools outside their district, Medicaid's
value and much more. It is indeed no easy challenge and
it becomes increasingly difficu lt to be a valuable citizen in
such a complex society. The job ot the political analyst under
such conditions is staggering. but if carried out well, in­creases
the objectivity citizens need to better comprehend
our volatile political life.

Guest Editorial
MORE THAN A SUPER-MARTINI
Of interest to sociology majors, alienated youth, and the
moralists among us is anything that Dr. Timothy Leary has
to say. And he said many tltings when he spoke at the Uni­versity
of Rochester Wednesday November 30) eve­ning.
It was my pleasure to be a member of the capacity
audience that overflowed Strong Auditorium to hear this
clinical psychologist express and defend his views on the usc
of psychedelic drugs.
One might have expected to see a rather frothing-at­the-
mouth type, ranting against stupid police states which
imprison people far their peculiar taste in sugar cubes, and
inveighing against denial of the freedom of oral assimilation.
If so, one would have been disappointed. Dr. Leary was
obviousl.v a man vet·y much in control of his senses, his
audience, and his subject. No youthful maniac, this: the
speaker was a man with a message to be reckoned with.
He began with an apology that he was "in his mind,"
nd thus. could not begin appropriately with prayer. "You
s.,.,, you can't pray unless you're out of your mind." You
can file requests with that white Blob that's somewhere Up
There, you can sort of stnnd in awe ar him, or you can even
feel some kind of, well, "mystical" unity with him. But you
can't pray. Prnyer is something different.
Later, he explained that the prerequisite for prayer
could also be attained without drugs, thouKh with a gTeater
degree of difficulty: just sit, as the Buddha did, for about
six days, and you'll get turned on.
With that pre.liminary statement out of the way, he gnve
a short history of his "trade" and some of its exponents.
Eventual!)•, he defined the trade as "the systematic altera­tion
of consciousness and teaching others to learn meaning
and divinity within." In this, he is most closely associated
with Zen Buddhism and ot·icntal wi.sdom ... One put·posc
of the League fol' Spiritual Discovery (his t·eligion, founded
three months ttgo) is to provide a guru to those who wish
to become aware. There are some parallels in western his­tory,
Karl Jung, far example, stated in the last chal>ler
of his au~obiography that what mattered mast to him WIIS
·'changes in my own consciousness." Wm. Blake was n psy­chedelic:
Wm. James had nitt·ous oxide parties to "turn
people on.'' Dt·. Leal'y also associated Martin Luther with
this illustrious line. Ole Marty's sacrament of awal'eness wus
the pl'inting press, and Marshall l\lcLuhan has explained
the re,·olutianary effect that can have on people.
You see. ''my dear t'Obots." it all has to do with "the
whale Caesar bit": Structures. both political nnd religious.
the Brahmins. the Priests-all al'c dedicnlNilo extel'n:tiizing.
llut "my tt·ncle reaffil'm~ the divinity of individuals. Thnt's
all it does. But maybe thnt's enough maybe that'~ all it
has to do." He explained that the interiot· is the domain
of the divine. "Anything out there. thnt's Cnesar's'' That'~
what Jesus wns getting at, snys Dr. Leat·y: ·• 'The Kingdom
of God is within you." Literally!" THEY would nevet· believe
this.
He is convinced, with Allen Watts. thnl we are all in­credibly
one. Psychedelic drugs enable our consciousness to
climb back that "beautiful. delicate protein lattice work"
nf memat'." to the time when we were mngnificenlly one
cellulat· unit. ''We'' don't remember that. but om· DNA
does. somehow. And it can carry us back rurther. he said.
No wonder we pray "Our father, hallowed be thy name".
Holy be the names of nil out· fathers and mothers nnd
mothers und fathers of mothet;S .. . " who made my universe.
Because "my nervous system is much like a gala."<y in which
the conscious ego travels from one lonely protienate globule
to another." Travels, that is. IF it hns l>een liberated by
psychedelics ft'Om its natural habitat of reality. What the
Western world must leam is that "Wherever your conscious­ness
is. that's l'eality !"
oleaner ""=C'nf ~ - .aocrrat
GLE A NER
Dr. Leary quickly dispensed with the problem of sci­ence
vusus religion. Up till now, religion has been as invia...
ible as microbes before the invention of the miscroscope.
Psychedelics bring the interior, the realm of religion, into
focus. "Let's face it-like it or not, the consciousness is bio­chemical
... so is most of American life. We wear, eat,
drink, and work with chemicals aU the time. Why not use
some of them as sacramenta!" "A sacrament is an external
sign which opens up the grace inside," which increases the
capacity to change the conscious state. And, as there are
different levels of consciousness, there at·e also levels of
psychdelics. The "seience within" or "science of the within"
religion of psychedelic sacraments seeks to learn of and
predict changes is consciousness mare subtle than the well­known
one from normal awareness to stupor.
Another large aspect of Dr. Leary's talk was his attitude
toward the American culture. When asked by a local TV
interviewer why he wished to set out to destroy mankind,
he suavely replied, "Why, my dear man, I am not aware of
any intentions of destroying mankind! I only with to destroy
YOUR soc:iety ... " He refers to Americana '66 as an
"insane asylum," although "you're probably too close to
see it." He cited headlines such as "560 Cang Killed ...
Percy Manics Rockefeller . . . Negro Slain at Southern
University" and the typical Monday morning response being
"He-hum" as indicative of the extent of neurosis. All in
America has become ritual, legal, priestly. It is the Brahmins
versus the Buddhists, and the Buddhists are gaining. He
deplores the racl that "there's no breathing room any
more." But the worst aspect of this insanity is education.
"Each of us is born into this world beautifully whole,
with a complete infinity of possibilities ... What happens?
Yom· parents-well-intentioned but mistaken- start narrow­ing.
narrowing you dawn." P'retty soon, they hand you over
to those (UGH!) opinionated teachers. (At this, there was
a relatively loud chorus of finger-snapping.) "But don't go
home and beat up llfom and Dad. When you' re ready, SPIR­ITUALLY
l'eady, go home and turn 'em ani"
What does the future hold? The future, as always, be­longs
to the young, the artists, ani! the alienated. These
groups demand more of society, and will take over. "ln
twenty years, the entire supreme court will be smoking
pOt." For the past six years. LSD pro1>0nents have l>een
"underground". They are coming into the Ol>en now, and
one day, will be so associated with The System that the
name of Leary will be used to squelch young visionaries
("When you are the E,tablishment, don't let it happen!").
lie drew a 1>arallel with "some Guy who was born in Galilee
and liked t.o get together and talk thing's over with his
friends." By the time it reached the other side of the Medi­terranean,
this Guy, though long gone, had gained a halo,
miraculous birth, and a lot of other jazz." The contented
look or other people coming from catacombs finally led t.o
ac~pt.ance by Constantine. But that was the beginning of
the end.
Towat-ds the end of his talk, Dr. Leary gave some
sincere comfot·t to those who fear that momlity is mut·dcrcd
mot·e effectively by the rise of God within than the "Death
of God in our time. ow· history, and our existence." He
did not came to pt'Oselytize. Spiritual Discovery is a weekly
discipline and the majol'ity of the time, one is nat on a
trip. but at home, harnessing his spiritual energies. "There
is no instant anything." Even when on a long trip, it is
excruciating to percieve "everything becoming a philosoph­ical
question mark." Psychedelics are not for those who
want a "super-mattini".
He confesses to "being a God-intoxicated person." He
is glad to have the five or six hours before being baled aut
to proclaim his news to the imprisoned and the policemen­"
The other side." He is a thoroughly engaging speaker, and
most plausible. But somehow, I'm not quite ready, myself,
to hop on the LSD bandwagon.

an understanding of it. Literature has always been the

Because the electric of my
Passions passes into air
Uncaught-
With no Transformer
To direct, to convert ...
To bind, to free . . .
Because the muddle of my
Emotions takes on no form
intelligible
And finds no focus, but re­mains
A shroud that islands me
From everyone, from any­one.
From any particular one be-cause
Because the electric of my
Passions passes into an
Empty nether world;
And because, consequently,
The storehouse of my power
May soon rage and flare
acrid bolts,
Si~zle and hiss white smoke,
Then crack, and corrode . .

po·rt. was drained and not anx·
ious to contribute a great deal to
O'Connor. who did not present lha.t
overwhelming a chance of victory.
Tn s.nswering students' questions.
the poUtJcal observer reflected his
long experience in viewing the
polJUcal scene. Mr. Bra.slt-y ex­pressed
his belief that the gu:ber·
natorlal election did not atre<:t tht:
local city elt!C'Uons since neither
major candidate POsse5$ed coattail
popu1arlty. He ·also teh that il
Howard Samuels had headed the
Democrats' ticket, a Democratic
victory might well have r·esulted.
On tht. que.stlon of whether Jt ls
necet.ary to have a personal for­tune
as a prer.tquisitc for public
office, M'r. Brasley did not see thls
of $ig:nilicant Importance especially
when such famiUt$ as the Kenne ..
dys and Rockt'Itllers do not spend
a great detll ot their own money in
elecUonJ. Tht- growth ot a tour
party system such as New York
St.att' has. on the national level, was
also declared an unlikt:ly possibil­ity.
DURING THE COURSE OF HIS
TALK, MR. BRASLEY RELATED
A VERY CHARMING STORY.
When Robert Kennedy was sched­uled
to speak :n St. John F lshtr
