What was your most profound insight while on any drug?

Just wondering what people have realized while on drugs. For me I guess it was just how unhealthy I am. Everytime I smoke weed I feel all the aches and pains I usually ignore and realized my posture sucks and that my body basically is in pain 24/7. I guess this was profound because it made me get healthy.
 
My most profound insight about myself was on DXM when I realized how much alcohol was destroying my life, and that day I quit and I haven't looked back since.
 
Not to get fucked off about an ex-gf of mine. Was getting to me for a while then I just realised on MDMA "I shouldn't give a fuck, and now I don't." and almost instantly, a weight was lifted from my shoulders :) May not sound that prounded, but few things generally mess with my head, and this was one of them.
 
That the whole idea of understanding life would be the ability to control the passage of time....
 
That I can be a beautiful person.


I am a little hard on myself sometimes (self loathing at times) but mushies reminded me that there can be beauty in every way that I move, speak, touch, exist.

wow, that's how i am too. I was pretty unhealthly before i started doing drugs. And now i try to exercise and eat better foods. A lot of times while high i want to eat a banana or somthing rather than potato chips.
 
Weed, for helping me sense I have a constant nervous habit of pushing my tongue into the roof of my mouth. I'd done it so long and it became so natural that my mouth always hurt, but the pain had spread and it just felt like my whole face was messed up. It worried me for months. When I no longer had that on my mind, I felt like a new person.

Mushrooms for showing me that everything is one, like a body that consists of parts but works together.
 
feeling the universal consciousness
understanding that we're like different eyes to this unique consciousness which experiences life many ways at the same time through ourselves

relativizing death since the universal consciousness survives
a living being is to the universe as a flower to a tree; it may die but the tree still lives

understanding how we're not "subjects" to a higher being but equal parts of the universal consciousness that has no "higher elements"
feeling that we're not here with a specific goal, we're just "experiencing" evolution

... and weirder things like having the feeling of, through the memory of this consciousness, reliving and "understanding" the apparition of the universe, understanding how a non existing universe could "decide" to pop out of nothing, how it was auto-creating itself, setting its own rules and allowing new concepts (life, intelligence, beauty, love, hate...) to appear...


(mushrooms were leading the same way, but the "revelations" came on ayahuasca)
 
I'm still not exactly sure. It happened while doing a whippet while rolling after doing acid and having one of those not fun, but deep trips two days earlier
 
On K and mdma, at a friends house just staring up at the stars, and everything just "clicked" - life, the universe, everything just made beautifully perfect and simple sense...

Ive been chasing that high for a couple of years now, nothing has ever come close to it. No matter how many times ive tried to replicate the circumstances :(

One perfect day soon...hopefully :)
 
realized taht life and existence was just a happening, a wiggle, and had no meaning nor need for meaning. The nature of the universe is simply to be. to happen:)

edit: oh... and the first time I ate shrooms i wrote perception = reality really big on my bedroom wall

i have come to the conclusion that everything happens for a reason, but that was only after a big weekend containing coke, pills and lots of booze and weed. everything that happens these days i can understand.. like everything happens for a reason, and i can understand why it does.. its weird, but strangely comforting
 
that the human mind is capable of changing itself into anything it wants to be, and that obsession with drugs sucks (on an uneasy LSA trip)
 
The most insightful thing off the top of my head was when I saw and felt my mind and saw the infinite amount of thoughts and possibilities, etc. Pretty cool, what it actually looks like is an infinite number of connecting boxes and it feels quite spacious. As you kind of just feel it popping out of your head.
 
The first thing I brought back from a true drug voyage (a ++++ mushroom trip, my very first psychedelic experience) was a piece of note paper with the words 'people will do anything to be on television' scrawled on it.

As for the most profound, it's hard to put into words, though I identify with insights such as 'everything is consciousness' and 'everything is connected,' etc. One time on acid, I was having two simultaneous trains of thought, one about how people's individual interests seem random but in fact they are exactly what the world needs, in perfect proportions, and they are getting some kind of grand job done (sort of like 'everything happens for a reason,' but not quite); the other train of thought involved seeing a spatial representation of a logical argument in my head, how the pieces 'fit together' in this interlocking 3D structure. Then, both trains of thought sped up incredibly; I was flying through a tunnel; I saw an immense flash of white; and I felt I'd seen 'everything.' Everything there was to see. In a way I find the very idea foolish, but at the same time, the experience was so overwhelming that I have no choice but to believe in it.

Also, on MDMA, I realized that I could completely change my life, and I did. Perhaps that's more profound.
