Much of last century's progress in the hard sciences depended on technology and the creation of research communities with critical mass. But for psychology and philosophy of mind, all crucial ideas have probably been discovered (and often lost again) thousands of years ago.
Neuroscientists calling baseline fMRI patterns the default mode network may well know less than shamans about how our mind works, and how it is affected by different drugs.

Perhaps we give neuroscience too much praise for their correlation-heavy research, but what I mean is that the modern industrial mind is what's been studied for centuries, perhaps even millennia, and now it's time to use psychedelics as probes for mind experiments.
