You can either demolish the brick wall or you can take it apart brick by brick. One of which is overwhelming and can cause collateral damage, the other of which takes longer but accomplishes the same with more safety.

My understanding is that many spiritual traditions have historically viewed psychedelics as ego’s way of “grasping” for enlightenment, for many before they are prepared for what they may experience.

A “bad trip” can leave someone in a state of confusion that they aren’t quite prepared to deal with.
