I'm fine being in awe of things that can be seen or proven, or are at least logical. 

If I were to meditate, it would be on how to become a better humanitarian and less selfish.  But I can't help spending all my money on beer and Ruffles!

So the question should just be "Have psychedelics made you know yourself better?"

right?

by that definition, sure, I'm "spiritual"

3rd post in a row:

yeah spiritual is by definition a very broad and loosely defined term

i avoided it for a while but eventually it's just to inconvenient to have a conversation about your non drug induced altered state experiences without calling it a "spiritual experience"

so what, the people who were not "spiritual" before they took psychedelics? Didn't know themselves as well?


This is why I want clarification because it sounds like horse shit.

I think they opened up the spiritual side of me. Since I was 19 I felt I was looking for "something" and psychedelics pointed me in that direction. I gained some pretty important life lessons from Ayahuasca ceremonies, and during a shroom trip on the beach I tried meditation for about 5 minuets and realized I could get everything I wanted from tripping from meditation. So I stopped doing all drugs and drinking and started meditating and have never been happier with where my life is headed.

I suppose it depends on your definition of spiritual, I feel psychedelics are the closest I've been to a spiritual experience but I still hold no belief in some supernatural power or anything like that.

RP should define spiritual, even the people who claim spirituality differ in definitions.

Define it as you'd like :shrug:

There is no hard and fast definition as I see it.

then what is spirituality by your definition? If you're spiritual you shouldn't have to think twice about defining it.

having faith in something greater then yourself. Or your ego.

It dose'nt have to be god, or gods or anything like that, just knowing that there is "something" more, something beyond this.

If this is what's meant by spirituality, psychedelics have made me spiritual as fuck.

But if what's meant by spirituality is "believing in imaginary nonsense like souls and the afterlife" then no, psychedelics have made me less spiritual than ever.

This is what I'm getting at........

Sure... I'm spiritual by your definition but not by "believing in imaginary nonsense like souls and the afterlife""


well put laser
