Psilocybin Mushrooms

[Mahakali]

I did not intent to invalidate anyone's experience, just in case...!

My background to this:
I joined this forum in december, since then there were already four(!) threads of people being suicidal.
Plus many threads of people in much too difficult emotional situations, plus quite a few here with schizophrenic and psychotic tendencies.
Additionally i have the impression, many amongst us have a tendency to not connect with physical life really and seek escape.

Considering this i feel we have a responsibility to give reasonable advice and as much in-depth insight as possible. At least i feel it.
Thats why i stress certain aspects, i hope you understand this.

Plant medicine can be very helpful in healing, in gaining spiritual insight and maybe just fun for others.
There is however the danger for ongoing desaster, and we should also look into the why and how.

But i guess we can agree on that

Well... we *shouldn't* want to connect with physical life, we should be seeking to connect with the essence behind it by developing the inner senses and energy manipulation.

I want escape from the illusion of physical existence, yes, but only so that I can experience the essence behind it and direct my own energies. There's a difference between wanting to escape to illusion, and wanting to escape from illusion.

I agree that any kind of drugs can be dangerous, even supposedly benign psychedelics.

My own experiences with mushrooms consisted of me laughing like a maniac until I realized the whole world and all of existence was a big joke that I shouldn't take seriously, and I think it actually just did me some good to remember that trip just now.
