Psychedelic drugs for me have always represent a tempting shortcut to accessing and tapping into sources of power. The Ra material even supports this....
Maybe meditation would give me the same kind of experience if i pursued it with diligence but it is so much easier to just take a pill or tab and throw yourself against the veil directly. When i was younger i used to read the Dune novels and i always liked the idea of a drug like "spice" in the book which for the select individual who was strong enough would grant them undreamed of powers whilst to everyone else it would be a poison. Later i learned this was actually a theme in alchemy
Its clear my perception of psychedelic drugs as a means of dismantling the veil has always been viewed through a darker or more sts lens. But im sure there are plenty of positive ways of using the same drugs. Maybe if it was a plant based psychedelic vs a pharmaceutically engineered drug i might approach it with a bit more respect and positivity but havnt had access to those much
Quote:"There are many upon your plane who have a random hole or gateway in their spirit energy field, sometimes created by the ingestion of chemicals such as, what this instrument would call LSD, who are able, randomly and without control, to tap into energy sources. They may or may not be entities who wish to serve."

Quote:To the alchemists, of course, the symbol and its very meaning had far more esoteric connotations. To them, poison represented an agent of transformation, a vehicle for the reconciliation of opposites. And there is an alchemical myth about a poison which for most men is extremely deadly, while for the elect it confers mastership and absolute power. Boyd Rice- Vessel of God
