Puts me in mind of Alan Watts. " Well, what would you do if you were god? Or let me put it in a simpler way. Supposing that every night you could dream any dream that you wanted to dream: what would you do? Well, first of all, I’m quite sure that most of us would dream all the marvelous things we wanted to happen, we would fulfill all our wishes. And we might go on that way for months. Besides, you could make it extraordinarily rich by wishing to dream seventy-five years in one night, full of glorious happenings. But after you had done that for some months, you might begin to get a little tired of it, and you would say, ‘What about an adventure tonight in which something terribly dangerous and exciting is going to happen But I’ll know I’m dreaming, so it won’t be too bad, and I’ll wake up if it gets too serious.’ So you do that for a while: you rescue princesses in distress from dragons, and all sorts of things, and then when you’ve done that for some time you say, now let’s go out a bit further.That's the place that all psychedelics eventually take me (provided they're psychedelic enough). Personally I think it's true. We're all the same force of consciousness ("god", the universal consciousness, whatever you call it) experiencing itself in every possible different way, and the reason any of this physical illusion exists is because we (I, us) created it so that we would not be all alone in the utter nothingness of the void. Whenever I totally escape the illusion, all I'm left with is the void. The first time it happened I was utterly terrified (2C-E and piracetam).
Experiencing the void and the fact that you're all that really exists sure makes you appreciate the life you're dreaming right now.
It also brings into focus the cosmic joke: most people live their physical lives yearing for the concept of "heaven" after death, when in reality heaven is physical life, the escape from endless solitary nothingness.

‘ Let’s forget it’s a dream, and have a real thrill!’ Ooh, but you’ll know you’ll wake up. And then you get— after you’ve done that for a while you get more and more nerve. Until you sort of dare yourself as to how far out you can get. And you end up dreaming the sort of life you’re living now."
