About

Dr. Petr Winkler - This presentation will take you on a journey from the very roots of psychedelic medical experiments in Bohemia (also known as Czech Republic) to the transpersonal thinking that these experiments triggered. The presentation is based on a) a systematic review of scientific papers published in the former Czechoslovakia during the era of legal experimentation with LSD, b) interviews with mental health professionals who experimented on themselves with LSD during that time, c) a personal reflection on the current development in the field in Bohemia. Self-experiments have had a prominent role in the Czech psychedelic research. These experiments have led to all sorts of transpersonal thinking and interests, the most known of them described by Stanislav Grof. However, the current psychedelic research in the Czech Republic is rather biologically oriented and transpersonally oriented practices remain largely hidden to science and academia.
