  John C. Lilly - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Lilly was born on Jan. 6, 1915, in Saint Paul, Minnesota and showed an early interest in scientific experiment.
Lilly's work inspired two movies made without his direct involvement, The Day of the Dolphin, in 1973, in which the US Navy turns the animals into weapons, and Altered States, in 1980, in which scientists combining drugs and isolation tanks see reality dangerously unravel.
Lilly was also referenced in the 2001 song "Oz is Ever-Floating" by the eclectic rock group, Oysterhead, as well as British rock group, Kasabian, in their song, Cut Off on their self-titled album (2004).

 CSP - 'John Lilly, So far ...' by Francis Jeffrey and John C. Lilly
But when John reached puberty, he had rejected this doctrine along with the church's doctrines on sin which conflicted with the true experience of his own developing sexuality.
Never explicitly stated as a theory by scientists or subjected to the scientific method for proof or disproof, the belief in the physical origins of the mind became, instead, a part of the "religion of science," a part one had better not question if one wanted to be accepted as a scientist.
For John the Scientist now, the idea of the contained mind had assumed a different status: It was a scientific hypothesis to be explicitly stated, analyzed, and put to the test, confirmed or refuted by experiment, in so far as this was possible.
