Terence McKenna really was a magician, in the sense that he could speak magic words and manifest his ideas in your head very clearly.

The concept you reference is what he called "The Transcendental Object at the End of Time". See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XMz4hWR5i0

The guy was really a master story teller, whether you take what he was saying seriously is up to you. Saying that, he did a lecture in New York when Giuliani was mayor and makes a quip about "the consciousness of Giuliani administration". I could not help being reminded of it when Giuliani resurfaced recently.
