I didn't find them very profound, just hallucinations shake up your brain pathways like a snowglobe and you consider things you wouldn't have before that seemed impossible. It also gives you new insight into "reality" and how your brain is largely interpreting everything uniquely and you can't always trust your own sight.

Those people who saw the light or aliens/ghosts probably haven't done LSD or they'd realize not to trust anything their brain interprets without sober analysis. "Holy shit, that prophet ghost was a pretty sweet hallucination" instead of writing a book about it and creating a religion.
