What if a Muslim woman in a strict old Muslim nation went out in public without wearing a head cover and had no bad conscience after that?
In the 1970's I used LSD and/or mescaline maybe a dozen times. They were interesting experiences from an observational point of view but it didn't result in any "new paradigm of existence" as it did for some people. While I was in scn it didn't make any sense to "study the mind" while using mind altering chemicals so for the six or seven years I was in I totally gave up psychedelics of any kind. Just common sense - lolSmoking magic mushrooms is not the right technique to get psychedelic effects. You have to ingest them.
Maybe that's why their minds didn't work well afterwards.
On the other hand, some people say that the mind is incredibly sharp after ingesting magic mushrooms. I can't say this myself because I have never ingested magic mushrooms. However, with other psychedelics such as LSD, mescaline or other related products, I have had some interesting experiences. On the other hand, it is clear that one functions in a rather strange way in the "real" world during these trips and that driving a vehicle or operating dangerous machinery is totally inadvisable.
But all this is just a memory, because during my last trip, 25 years ago, I promised not to use any more psychedelics other than a little cannabis from time to time.
