Daniel Pinchbeck, a self proclaimed independent writer, publisher and Shaman, working with the media since the late 80's. He's done articles for The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, and is also a Co founder of Open City, an art and literary journal. After falling into a spiritual crisis and feeling like a dead man pointlessly walking the street, Daniel recalled his psychedelic experiences with LSD and Mushrooms in college. He tried them again and the affects were so astonishing he traveled to Nepal and India where he visited Tibetan Buddhists and the Hindu festival Kumbh Mehla. Eventually doing many different psychedelics including iboga in West Africa and ayahuasca in the Ecuadorean Amazon, Daniel studies Shamanism and the magical plants used in rituals. With two books out, Daniel Pinchbeck tells you about his perspective on evolution and transcension of the collective consciousness of all humans on this earth.

"If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you." -Daniel Pinchbeck
