This title was misleading here. This is an article about drugs, not rugs. The author says that psychedelic drugs are "one of the most important rites of passage a human being can experience," yet also that "there is nothing that one can experience on a drug that is not, at some level, an expression of the brain’s potential." This seems like a contradiction of sorts, and I wonder if he's trying too hard to make a case for drugs based on his own experiences.
