Why do practically all druggies believe in dumb pantheistic philosophies about god and the universe and shit? Is it that those kinds of people are attracted to these substances or do the substances literally screw with your sensory input and information processing so much that it screws up your rational, logical, and abstract thinking?

Whos to say every one of those machines process information in the same way. What of the heavily filtered output that allows a person to live in their situation is "real". We try to describe through physics the nature of things, but is that what you see and feel? That you are part of an infinite soup of interconnected matter and energy? Some people are going to experience reality in a completely different way to yourself. What say you were blind, and your visual cortex had managed to link itself in part to input coming from your ears? People like that exist, without taking any kind of drug. Is what they experience fundamentally broken or just different and interesting?

It objectively does, because light spectra are a component of reality. And no you can't see "more colors" on psychedelics, because the sensors you use aren't affected by them.

Someone like you would say "there is no sound right now you are schizo!!!" while your dog is running around howling from the noise. A bear can smell shit from miles away. A shark has a sense known as the impuli or lorenzeni that allows it to detect a single drop of blood from miles away. Your human senses are not the end all be all little one.

Their sense of smell is that powerful but those organs are for electroreception. They can feel the very weak electromagnetic fields generated by other animals.. they are I think the most sensitive but other animals also react to stronger fields.. like the earths magnetic field itself for navigation.

The human brain has been shown to respond to these fields in small ways as well. Perhaps in some people more than others? Maybe a distant ancestor made more use of this. I wonder what reality was like for him?

For me (although it was years ago now) psychadelics lead me towards a more responsible life, an indifference towards unanswerable questions and a strive for verifyable truths. I get why people might misconstrue hallucinations as having come for a divine source, but for me I always saw it as an internal experience rather than something originatic from a higher source.

I will say that they do open your mind to just how fragile ones sensory experience is and it will certainly give you perspective.. but I do agree most people that are involved with drugs, especially those that aren't in it for the explorative aspect but in search of truth are for the most part retarded.

Oh I can answer this for real. I freebased DMT over 100 times...
Substances like DMT especially cause a diminished sense of ego. The ego is largely built on certain styles of sensory perception, and unchallenged ideas... For example, your mind is currently creating a representation of the world. It makes the representation of various sensory qualities like touch and sight.

The feeling of you ending at the edge of your body in the visual field is a function of the mind. It requires a functioning mind to create a sense of spatial positioning within a visual field.

Things like spatial positioning, identification of self, and the mixing of several senses to interact in generating a very sincere representation of the world, all rely on the mind's aftereffects.

These drugs interrupt the body's ability to add aftereffects onto the raw sense data.

This leads to a genuinely more real "experience", as you are experiencing what is closer to unadultered reality. The sense of where the body ends etc, that process stops, and it's senses like that which lead to the sense of being sizeless etc when high on these drugs.

People believe it because some of what happens, like said above, is quite literally closer to raw reality. IMO you could easily argue that the less special effects are placed onto a sensory field by the mind, the closer you are to seeing actual reality as it is.

There is a hypothesis that some schizophrenics may actually mistake their own inner monologue as being a voice outside of their body.
I believe people who think drugs reveal some great truth are essentially having the same issue.

I’ve woken up from dreams where I’ve had crazy revelations about how to solve a problem, or a course of action to take. I wake up desperate to note it down and make use of it, and then as I become more aware, while I remember the revelation perfectly, I realise it makes no fucking sense and is actually worthless dream logic.

Druggies are either incapable or unwilling to make that realisation about drug-fuelled fantasies
