The 2009 Entheogenesis Australis conference will be held over four days and will consist of a variety of lectures, discussions, workshops and performances. This year EGA will have over 20 lectures, 5 discussion panels and variety of on-site workshops. All this will be taking place over 4 days nestled in beautiful Strathbogie Ranges in north east Victoria Australia.
Headliner 1 - Bear (Owsley) Stanley
Unofficial Bio Link - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owsley_Stanley
Headliner 2 - Robert Jesse
http://www.entheo.net/POP_Bob.htm
Bob Jesse is organizer of the Council on Spiritual Practices (csp.org/about), which aims to shift modernity's awareness and practices with respect to primary religious experience (csp.org/PRE). CSP also encourages people to imagine and develop social contexts to contain such experiences and help them yield lasting benefit.
Through CSP, Bob and his colleagues initiated a study, conducted at Johns Hopkins (http://csp.org/psilocybin/) and reported around the world, of the psychospiritual effects of psilocybin in healthy volunteers (csp.org/psilocybin). This expands the emphasis in hallucinogen research beyond the medical treatment of ill people to include the betterment of well people, contributing to a science of pro-social development.
On his home front, Bob is co-founder of a spiritual community formed around ecstatic dance. His formal training is in engineering and lives in San Francisco.

Entheogenesis Australis (EGA) is a not-for-profit association that exists to create a supportive environment that fosters mature, open discussion about psychoactive plants and chemicals. We seek to explore ways to assess societal impacts and examine the positive applications of plant-based psychoactives and empathogens.
Altered states of consciousness have long been a fundamental part of human culture, and as our world becomes increasingly fast-paced, alternative modes are becoming ever more significant and consciously explored.
The Entheogenesis Australis 2009 Symposium aims to address the issues relating to drug use/misuse from social, cultural and historical/traditional perspectives. EGA speakers will draw on the backgrounds of physiology, biology, pharmacology, psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, botany and more to provide a more realistic context to the role drugs and altered states play in the modern world.
If you’ve ever asked yourself “has the ‘War on Drugs’ created more problems than it tried to solve?
