ok im new here, so forgive me if this question is in the wrong place or has been asked before, but has anyone here ever taken drugs to enhance rituals such as suspensions, meditation, play piercing, blood letting etc. many thanks for any responses...:\
 
I don't know exactly where this would belong goldenglory but I would lean towards Philosopy and Spirituality so I'll send it over there and see if those mods agree.

HT >>> PS
 
are you specifically looking for personal experiences to discuss or seeking further information with regards to that subject? who are some of the psychonauts whose ideas you are already familar with?
 
i have heard that such drugs are used in tribes and the like. A few people take DMT to find themselves spiritualy. one discibes the trip and the other writes it down and then analyze. it sounds like something i would like to try myself. Another thing i have heard is that 2c-b is good for meditation with music :) try it :)

not sure about the ritual stuff though i wouldnt reccomend rituals under the influence as things may not be as they seem :)
 
ive def spent entire trips, 8 hours or more, sitting in a forest meditating. i believe it has enhanced my vitality to a point of literally adding entire years onto my life. every breath feels like my inner vitatity is exploding with power like the sun, yet its as calm and serene as deep space, and i dont feel inside my body at all, but rather the sum total of all energies in the localized area. ive come back from doing things like that feeling 10 years younger physically and 100 years older in self awareness, wisdom. has to be an environment of seclusion with thick biodiversity, ie, forest, for me to do that.

i actually dont really trip "for fun" too much anymore. its far less recreational and far more a very deep, spiritual experience for me. i often tell people that im not that fun to trip with. i can be, but id rather be engaged in spiritual pursuits.
 
I've never taken psych's to enhance some spiritual ritual or w.e but I have felt as if I've had some cathartic experiences or realizations while tripping..shrooms especially

Id show some concern about taking psych's and making people bleed tho...
 
Not quite for those reasons, but for more general things like universal understanding, contemplating creation, and also "channeling" or like Ouija board type experiences in a way. Every time I roll (and use GHB or 1,4BDO with it, as i always do) I make a point of having at least one spiritual discovery or insight while rolling, whether I'm rolling at a club or at a home. It always helps greatly. Not so much now but in the past when I was on meth (and usually either alcohol or a benzo with it, just so I don't anxiety out and mess up the experience) I often would just start painting with acrylic paint on canvas and canvas paper, like crazy. I have no art experience but I would think of someone who passed away or had gone missing, and I'd totally just paint whatever my paintbrushes led me to, and I'd feel like I connected with that person. Same with doing meth while shooting photography, i'd set my camera settings to shoot lights in time lapse so they made amazing designs, and I'd kinda read them like tea leaves. I will definitely be doing more of these things in the future. %)

(I don't use hallucinogens because I have only reacted poorly on them, so MDMA and meth are my choices for things like this.)
 
For a short while I was smoking weed while doing shamanic drumming meditation. It seemed to go quite well together. I've also felt that Ayahuasca has been beneficial for my general state of mind.

I feel it really depends on the person and their intention. I've often blurred the line between wanting to heal myself and wanting to escape myself. Something can be both your poison and medicine.
