Yes hallucinating higher powers making contact with plans for the subject to make the world better is… a consistent but rarely encountered feature of the human brain. Go read the descriptions of angels in the Bible and it reads just like somebody tripping.

One of the reasons hallucinogens are dangerous is that there’s a risk that users will believe in their hallucinations and try to start cults.

Timothy Leary was one of these drug-induced zealots and he among others were the reasons LSD et al got banned in the first place. They wanted to overthrow society and implement a quasi-religion based on the drugs.
