In short, you're not experiencing the universe. You're experiencing your own mind.

- toomanybeersies 8y agoAbsolutely. I do think that everyone should try psychedelics at least once, in a comfortable, controlled environment with friends. You may not unlock the secrets to the universe, but I do think it teaches you an important lesson that your reality and experiences are subjective. I don't mean that reality itself is subjective, but our perceptions of it are. LSD will mess with your perceptions in really weird ways that can't really be described with words. Things like your perception of depth and age get thrown off completely.
- KozmoNau7 8y agoI was offered some shrooms a couple of years ago at a metal festival. I was actually a little bit tempted, but I figured the combination of drunkenness and the presence of thousands of strangers meant it would not be a good time nor place to give it a go for the first time.
- gerbilly 8y agoYes but, during normal everyday experience, you can't experience the universe without going through your own mind either.
