I hear some claim to have experienced true reality from taking LSD. A glimpse into higher states of consciousness that reveal unity in all of creation. I only experienced extreme frieght, and wished like hell I had never taken the stuff, but others tell a different sory. Whats your story.

other times i have taken it i was in full control of my faculties, in fact i would say that because it made me self conscious, i was in more control, i was able to ride my bike, have a meaningful conversation with my friends, even a deep conversation.
once we bought a whole batch of them and we tried one or two, and nothing happened and we thought that they were fake, so we gobbled three or four, turned out they were real, watched Pink Floyd live in Pompeii, that was unforgettable.
what i would say, is that while it changed my perception at the time, it has contributed nothing to my spirituality and i would strongly advise against its use as a spiritual medium, or even a recreational one. It is not like smoking pot, nor like taking cocaine, it opens the receptors of the mind to all sorts of influences, and who can fathom the dictates of the mind?

Did it in conjunction with speed and pot and beer. I had a high level of tolerance for drugs. We partied all the time. It was great fun.
I wouldn't recommend it though. Doesn't lead to anything closely resembling enlightenment.

I never even dared mix it with pot or beer, just the LSD alone was too much for me.

No, but still the things you do on your trip can still kill you, especially since you don't seem to understand danger during it, and it is addictive, and anything that addicts effects your brain, however subtlely. Pot and beer do have lethal effects though. I've had a lot of relatives who've died from drugs and alcohol, and it hurts the people you leave behind :'(

yes they do, but still, its enjoyable and its ok. There is no religious reason why people shouldn't drink, or smoke pot.

So because your on drugs you aren't responsible for your actions? What if you kill someone accidently? Is that justified? If you are the temple of God, shouldn't "thou shalt not kill" not be allowed in the temple of God? Christ threw out the salesman in the temple, don't you think he'd not like murderers in the temple?
