About this Event
Sacred Derangement is a vibrant and personal guide to staying awake and creative in the modern world.
Half manifesto and half field manual, author Jason Silva explores how altered states, aesthetic wonder, and sacred play can help cultivate boundless creativity.
This book asks the question: What does it mean to stay fully alive in a world spinning ever faster?
In answer, Jason Silva shares his wild guide for finding center in the chaos. Sacred Derangement is a journey through meditation, altered states, and sacred play.
Within these pages, Silva shares the tools, lenses, and practices he uses to metabolize existence itself:
- How to surrender to mystery and beauty.
- How to train the nervous system for creativity and participation.
- How to savor and how to build.
- How to have many laughing fits.
This is not just a book. This is an invitation to dance inside the mystery: to stay human, stay awake, and stay inspired as we hurtle into the future.
