Herbal induced Hallucination

What's my opinion on it?

It has been said, in many occurrences (much to the dismay and shuttered embarrassment of those who've received such experiences) that 'enlightenment' may or may not be received...

Now enlightenment, I feel is a very broadly used term when speaking on 'herbal-induced hallucination'.

Enlightenment to me, takes many forms; self-recognition, spirituality, and newly achieved cognitive awareness.

Psilocybin - Physiological change achieved through digestion by semi-acidic reactions or better explained as psychological response... In this, the body exhibits dephosphorylization or removal of certain proteins found within DNA by intramolecular ligation (joining of DNA by 2 DNA strands or ester linkage). Psilocybin is a tryptamine or monoamine alkaloid which can be found in plants and animals. Tryptamine is also known for regulating diverse populations of neurons found in the brain. See Neuromodulation.

It is my belief that this physiological experience can and most certainly will influence thought processes. 

Through these chemical alterations, I personally have seen in an almost tangible state the items of which I yearned to touch; I have thought the ideals I have yet to to imagine.

And in this, I thought deeply on the metaphorical obstacles that stand in my way. I began to visualize and then see them in physical form.

So cliche; so goddamn obvious.. and with ease, I pushed them aside.

I walked passed these ugly things in great laughter and realized that these road-blocks were but a hurdle on an uphill track....

I'd battled the demons that lie on the later end and suddenly I saw the truth... I know nothing.

I am a dumbfounded infant that discovered their feet.

Now, I sit wondering what there is left to interpret. Is that it? Is there more to it?

I felt empty.

It wasn't until the proceeding day I listened to an interview with a well-known collegiate, Ram Dass otherwise known as Richard Alpert. It was then that I began to realize my emptiness had been beckoned and full-filled before.

He explains his life; his achievements, A great deal of aesthetically recognized awards. A harvard professor, scientist of Child Development and Psychology, and several other badges of which used to enthuse and delight however now seem dull and uninteresting to me (personally).... Then, he claims that with all of this, he felt without knowledge of what "it" was. 

He continues to explain his experience with psilocybin.

He tells a story of experiencing sight through his third eye, the disappearance of his body, then his return to earth via the grounding voice of reason (his wife).  His wife, whom had found him shoveling snow in the peaks of morning, called out "Come to bed, nobody shovels snow in the morning!", to which he smiled, and continued shoveling....

And through the closed window, she returned a smile....

A smile, a symbol of unwitting acceptance.

This. In a nutshell. Is reason.

Love.

Yes, love. (Cliche and cheesy in its entirety)

Love is infectious.

Regardless of mental state, it sees humility and it accepts it. It holds on to this feeling and returns it to others with tenderness....

Vulnerability. Continuity of oneself through the reflection of another's...

Any neurobiologist that could see this, would agree... Any plant that could catalyze one's realization of this is one certainly worth the experience.
