#422 Music, Mysticism & Mindfulness w/ East Forest

Krishna, also known as East Forest, is back to discuss his influential work in the realm of psychedelic music. East Forest gained recognition for his album 'Music for Mushrooms,' a five-hour album tailored for psilocybin experiences. The podcast revisits his creative process and the impact of his work on psychedelic practitioners in the United States and beyond. Krishna also shares insights on his recent documentary on 'Music for Mushrooms,' which is available for free viewing for two weeks upon the podcast's release. The conversation transitions into various personal updates, including East Forest's recent activities in Utah and his experience with homesteading and running a property. Both brothers reflect on the spiritual and grounding effects of physical labor and touch on their personal experiences with high-dose psilocybin journeys. The podcast also explores deeper philosophical and existential questions, relating to the nature of reality, spirituality, and the importance of tools like meditation and music in navigating life's challenges. Krishna shares his ideas on the transformational power of music designed specifically for psychedelic journeys and references the influence of notable figures like Ram Dass and Leonard Picard. The episode emphasizes the importance of live performances in an age where recorded music is becoming increasingly saturated, along with future tour plans and projects. Throughout, the conversation weaves between profound insights about existence and light-hearted banter, providing listeners with an engaging and thought-provoking experience.
