I am about to promote something that COULD change people’s perception and understanding about everything, it might sound surreal and insane but think about it in another way. Society today works like computers in a way that our minds and present consciousness has been programmed by tons of different propaganda and adverts that are forced to be injected into our brains without even asking our permission and it’s sad to say that there are only few of us who we’re completely aware of this phenomenon.
Most of us immediately believe on what we see, what we hear and what was going on around the mainstream and they weren’t even thinking that they could be possibly fooled by those. The typical consciousness is like a computer or an android device with lots of viruses on it and it just keeps on doing what the virus was programmed to do and the hackers who made the virus which happens to be the corporations of today seems to be over-ruling us from what we can do with our minds. Now psychedelics here works like reformatting the brain with the latest anti-virus, anti-malware combined with the strongest possible firewall and with a whole bunch of those stuff in a way that it changes the way a person thinks and it changes the way a normal person understands about everything.
Now if we think about bringing quality media to the mainstream, it could be a pretty tough move given that there are lots of viruses that already infected networks of computers(or the majority of society which I was referring to) and is nearly impossible to educate. The easiest possible way in reformatting these people’s mind is to help them think in another way. In the typical dictionaries, Psychedelic means “relating to or denoting drugs (especially LSD) that produce hallucinations and apparent expansion of consciousness while the urban dictionary tells that it’s "mind manifesting and it is used to describe the state of consciousness typically experienced while under drugs such as LSD, mushrooms, mescaline and cannabis - consisting of various stages of ego-release and an often startling alteration of perceptions. We were forced to believe that these are dangerous and it makes a person crazy or develop some sort of brain damage and mental insanity plus the rumors of that teenage-guy who jumped-off the building because of tripping from marijuana or magic mushrooms; these stopped us from thinking about the other way around.
Various studies and research about psychedelics have been conducted and most of them tells that it doesn’t actually harm the body nor the brain at all and what it actually does is that it generates a sort of randomness and relatedness of everything within your mind combined with hallucinations of a surreal experience within more or less than ten minutes from a regular recreational dosage and with these, your brain stimulates a new way of thinking which links everything from understanding and exploring the meaning of the real consciousness into opening new windows of perception and the way you think about everything. Let’s just say it leads you to the answer of all your questions in a way that it lets you think in a more complex way, it is where you transform into you higher state of mind or higher self, linking everything you have been and understanding what was happening the other way around and it is where you finally understand things from your emotions, experiences, inner peace, self-worth, ego and your whole sense of personality.
A lot of people claim to understand these things but most of them don’t literally know the real meaning of life just like the way we see meditation as a practice of relaxation and not as being to be one with the universe and everything around you or simply spirituality. Now going back to the idea of bringing quality media into the mainstream, a massive reformatting of consciousness is needed to change the way people see the world and in that case quality media wouldn’t be striving itself into the mainstream anymore, it will just simply be on it because people isn’t any more programmed by the corporations who are literally running the world today. Besides, there is no single case of death in history that is properly detailed and is directly attributing to psychedelics; it hasn’t clearly killed anybody yet, given that it was practiced for thousands of years ago and even on ancient civilizations who practiced shamanism and alchemy.
Alcohols, cigarettes, coffee, genetically engineered and synthetic foods are widely available anywhere you want it when these are actually where most cases of death came from; whereas engaging on psychedelics includes and having sudden realizations and new sets of ideas and it stays with you forever after you get sober enough to get back to reality, you enter as good person and get sober as a better person. It might be difficult to understand and deal with it at first but it’s just like the whole idea of “you don’t get to know to drive a car and get on the road alone without someone else teaching you how to drive”.
After all, educating isn’t really enough, what we really need is enlightenment, to make quality media into the mainstream and even change the world. I’m not saying I’m encouraging it for all ages but it’s also just like depriving a child to drink alcohol until its proper age. In that sense, maybe it wouldn’t be as dangerous as what you’ve thought. It is just simply linking faith and the science of everything, is it still that bad? It may sound insane but it is never impossible
