Show Notes

The advent of the New World brings its own share of problems and issues. Some of these are like labour pains while others are simply the result of a temporary disruption in the old established equilibrium. The latter particularly results in certain abnormal phenomenon that increases during times of transition. One such phenomenon was the counterculture movement that rose in silent revolt against the established norms of the old world order. It started in the early sixties soon after the Supramental Manifestation in 1956 and took various forms in different countries. In America it took the form of hippie movement where young persons broke free form societal norms to start living afresh and in unconventional ways. Its dark and dangerous offshoot was the use or rather abuse of psychedelic drugs for alternate types of other-worldly experiences. This evening we share the Mother’s insights on this subject that is fast taking the modern youth in its grips.
