Soul Sync with Jason Paul

Psychedelic Liberation: Escaping the Illusion of Self with Kalden Davies

Jason Paul Season 6 Episode 16

** Always prioritise safety, legality, medical advice, and skilled facilitation. **

At 19, Kalden Davies speaks with the clarity of an old soul. In this wide-open, funny, and disarmingly honest conversation, we explore how psychedelic experiences (LSD, ayahuasca) can dissolve the illusion of separation, why integration matters more than “getting high,” and how choosing love over fear -moment to moment - recalibrates a life.

We get into the Default Mode Network, ego traps (“you can’t control it”), the Course in Miracles view that only perfect love exists, Rupert Sheldrake’s morphic fields, Ram Dass, the politics of “peace vs liberation,” and why music is where light and sound meet. Kalden also shares his next step: travelling to Ecuador to learn cacao ceremony and land-based practice.

What you’ll hear

  • How a first LSD experience at 16 dissolved boundaries and rewired meaning
  • Integration > intoxication: bringing insights into relationships, work, and daily choice
  • Love vs fear as a practical compass (and why “control” is the ego’s last trick)
  • Ayahuasca 101: MAOI + DMT, the purge, and meeting a greater intelligence
  • Morphic fields & energetic imprinting (why change can ripple across a collective)
  • A Course in Miracles on perfect love, plus Ram Dass, Gabor Maté & the Bhagavad Gita
  • Liberation vs “keeping the peace,” and what genuine spiritual activism looks like
  • Simple practice: the “positivity band” to spot fear-based thinking in real time
