how often would you trip if every time you did it was a very spiritual experience? when is it to much? is it a short cut?

Its definitely a shortcut. And it doesnt always lead to spirituality.

I would do them as much as my tolerance could handle, and I'm sure the world would already be a far greater place, but that's just not how the cookie crumbles. There's a little thing called freedom.

The shamen in the amazon trip 2x a week for years at a time on ayahuasca.
McKenna had a theory that you should time your trip schedule with the growth of the plant. So for mushrooms once every 3-4 months.
I suppose that means peyote once every 30 years or so. LOL

Once or twice a year... if that.
I mostly take psychedelics these days because I hedonistically enjoy the visual, psychological, and physical aspects. I often have spiritual ideation during those trips, but I've only had a couple of legitimate spiritual experiences off psychedelics, and those experiences induced me to take breaks.

People put psychedelics up on the pedestal and bow down to them. The high can be the same as every other drug, nothing spiritual about it. An oxycontin could be just as enlightening as a dose of mushrooms (for some people in certain set & settings).
I hate when people think taking massive amount of psychedelics leads to spirituality, a better self, and a better life. Sorry folks, but dosing yourself doesn't make you the prophet.

I went from shrooming at 4-6 grams every 2 weeks for the better part of a year to...well it's been since august of last year now.
That last one was a doozy.
I don't know how the amazon people do it. Like the Aya 40..40 days in a row. 
It's on my list though if I ever get through this funk.

When I had my first "breakthrough" experience on DMT, it was a legitimate pole-shift in how I regarded the universe. The dualistic perspectives I had used my entire life were materially shattered and I had to reconsider every aspect of my existence I had ever taken for granted. It took well over a year. During most of that time, the idea of taking psychedelics was very frightening to me.
Most of my trips aren't like that, because I tend to dose low when it comes to psychedelics. Low-level trips are unbelievably fun to me, but high-dose or ego-breaking trips are not fun. I want to do it again someday, but not until I feel seriously prepared.

as long as it does not interphere with you living a productive life ur good. if you can maintain school or ur job u should be fine. But if you need to eat shrooms instead of attending urs kids b-day party then its time to rethink some stuff. if ur lookin for an exact amount it does not exist. If you have nothing goin on in ur life then there is no max amoount. If you eat them and they work then ur good; but most of the time if you have to ask you should cut down. Hope that helps

Its definitely a shortcut. And it doesnt always lead to spirituality.
If it doesn't always lead to spirituality then how is it a shortcut?

"experience is relative"
a friend used to say that a lot and it kind of irritated me but now i see how much it can mean
how often would I trip? well that depends. I think that the trip would give me a little insight into the answer to that question. It all comes down to you and what junction you are at in your life. Some trips tell you you need to be tripping more. Some trips tell you that you need to be not tripping for whatever reason (work, school, playing with explosives, etc)
Quote:
when is it to much?
when it is hindering the advancement of your well-being, or when you become a danger to your responsibilities. For example, if you were homeless, you might want to stop for a while and get a job. If you just had a newborn child, well you might want to have the child's interests in mind.
Quote:
is it a short cut?
trip enough and you will see that there are no short-cuts, at least not when it comes to working on your self. Thinking you know how it's done, and actually being able to do it are two different things. It doesn't do the work for you.
I would wager that among the people who have tripped over 300-1000 or so times, most if not all still haven't grown out of some very old habits. And those that have never tripped are simply virgins to a key facet of the human experience. Either way I guess you just don't want to be stuck in self-indulgence.
You will know when it is right for you. Or not.

I would trip once every 2 months if I had access to psychedelics, I don't at the moment.
