These are my first thoughts. Yet I haven't even asked the main question: Is there any basis for Aldous Huxley’s assertion in reality?
So is it? What ‘true’, the statement by Aldous Huxley? Shall we have a journey into the anatomy of the mind in solitude and in situ? Or do you have something else more pressing to do? Well, I will begin and you can catch up later. It's a bit like catch-up TV except this is catch-up enlightenment from Aldous Huxley.
Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894–22 November 1963) was a writer, philosopher and explorer of the mind using psychotropic substances such as LSD and mescaline what we now call a Psychonaut. He was a writer of fiction, non-fiction, essays and poems. His mighty works included the iconic and prophetic dystopian novel Brave New World and The Doors of Perception.
