Psilocybin was better than therapy by any measure. It's transformed my life positively.

It's definitely not for everyone! In high dosages it can induce feelings of death. I literally felt like I had died. I had no more ego. I didn't know who I was or where I was. There was only math, logic and reasons. It was as if the veils of reality were lifted to reveal what it was: Math. I saw numbers and formulas everywhere. Then it struck me like a freight train, God IS math, our life is complex system of math, we are living in the body of God.

I've read the pineal gland arises on the 49th day when the baby is inside the womb...how the hell did Tibetan monks know this without science millenias ago? The soul is said to enter the body on the 49th day....it's just...science itself is not enough to explain reality and the universe is what I've come to accept.

I'm hard knock atheist but Psilocybin made me experience spirituality in a highly logical and mathematical manner...it's just frighteningly awesome I am struggling to describe it fully....words can't justify

I realized there was a reason to everything in life. I was here where I was because of reasons which in turn induced actions. I was terribly addicted to substances, locked up in my room.

Just taking Psilocybin a few times induced so much positive changes because it made me experience consciouness on a different world...where I had to physical presence but only my conciousness without ego.

I'm getting goose bumps thinking about the trip. Not so pleasant was seeing eyes, lots of eyes, eyes of providence they call it. I realized those eyes have been watching me all this time and if I didn't turn my life around I would be in hell.

The aftermath of this trip, an overwhelming peace and reduced anxiety, I notice I've become way more social and confident, my posture has improved, I've moved my computer to the living room, I've met new people.

Psilocybin is a drug that will give you answer to all your questions. I reckon religious texts were written while on it.

I was a pretty heavy user (1-3 trips a month) for about a year after graduating high school, and I still take it about once a year now. I disagree that it has all the answers, psilocybin does not reveal any great truths or break down the mysteries of the universe. That said I love it and just did a light trip for the eclipse, it can bring calm, peace, love of nature, love of self and others to you, but it is not some magic path to god.
Different strokes for different folks but heavy usage leads to reduced effects due to high tolerance. They recommend waiting up to a month if you take large doses. You are right in that it didn't reveal the mysteries of the universe, but my own internal universe. I could explain my anxiety, previous bouts of depression logically once I stopped letting my ego tell me whatever it wants to see....but it certainly felt like...transcendence of sort...I realized this is what Buddhism and Tibetans discovered through deep meditation, they were able to see reality and universe as it is. I'm very interested in these things now whereas before I only had appreciation for it.
You now believe there's an afterlife where you'll suffer eternally if you do or don't take particular actions in life?
I still got some reservations about this but it's getting hard to ignore!

To me, the Karma system and reincarnation makes sense...like a divine ledger that always balances to zero...where if you gain or lose Karma, it will offset respectively by the same amount by somebody else. This is how I understood the Buddhists view...which I'm constantly trying to see.

Why am I so interested in Buddhism? Well, if this "religion" can accurately predict that the soul enters the fetus on the 49th day preceding science that revealed the pineal gland responsible for consciousness, DMT production is formed after 49 days, what else do these Tibetan buddhists know?

We have so much inequality and I'm not talking about just wealth....if you believe that we are capable of being born as animals or humans, it explains why everything is the way it is....why some animals end up as dinner while others live freely...

Here's a kid that remembers being murdered in his previous life, it's not just an one off case but these type of stories are found throughout history and today.

I'm not saying everyone on HN should heed everything I wrote but try it out. Take some psilocybin in a safe environment, think through some of the things I've said...which are common repeating themes like the Eye of Providence that so many people see while tripping.

If I self terminate I'll attempt to report back to you. Look for 666 symbolism and a pack of fruit cups offered to you as a place to hide tens of thousands of fiat currency. If you see that you know I'm in hell and reincarnation didn't apply at least to me.
