  CSP - 'Rolling Thunder' by Doug Boyd
Rolling Thunder had told us at Council Grove that he was a member of the peyote religion, and since then I had learned from him some appreciation of the rituals.
Rolling Thunder, like the Potawatomi and perhaps all traditional Indians, considered the use of peyote for "spacing out" or "getting stoned" a gross misuse of the agent and a misuse of the mind.
Rolling Thunder, like Swami Rama and perhaps all "medicine people," gives priority to the capacity to control the attention, to maintain "one-pointedness of mind." There can be no healing, no meditation, no meaningful spiritual experience without that highest of disciplines-particularly if drugs are to be used and not dangerously distracting or defeating.
