A journy through the world's relgions

I'm planning an experiment for my next mushroom trip. I want to see how many religious experiences I can simulate over one trip. I plan on using good headphones and making a track-list of some of the great world religion's music, and taking a pretty big dose. 5 or 6 grams should do. So the music will transition from Gregorian chants over to Tibetan overtone singing to Islamic music, Jewish music, Hindu music, whatever. I may also get 'artifacts' of each religion (books, symbols, w/e) and transition through them when the music switches. I may need a helper to take the crucifix out of my room and replace it with my buddha statue at the correct time.
The point of all this is I want visuals of Jesus transforming into wrathful deities, transforming in Vishnu, transforming into who knows what. I want to see the most amount of deities possible in the shortest amount of time. 
Now, the main point is too see how much these experiences are based in our minds, and how symbols (music, books, crosses, statues) influence our minds to believe in these myths.
So, please, send me song requests that best depict the mystical tradition of each world religion so I can build up a track list. Or at least a bunch of world religions. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, maybe some shamanic traditions, and anything I'm forgetting also.
I'll report back after the experiment. Should be in a week or so.

Awesome idea. I don't really know what kind of music to suggest, but for shamanic, some good tribal drumming with some chanting over it would be good. I'd have no idea where to go about obtaining that though, heh. (maybe some Christian rock? )
Best of luck ahead of time. Sounds intense.

Throw Baphomet in there and play some pop music. Serious.

Just ordered my free Quran from the web! 
I'll consider throwing in Baphomet.

Well, it's a personal experiment. If you don't view it as an experiment then that's fine by me.
And thanks!

Id recommend reading Huston Smith's The Worlds Religions as a primer before moving on to primary texts.

your mind will prolly just end up gravitating towards whatever religious symbol is embedded in your subconscious to be honest.
if you live in the west, probably white jesus. you'll see him and have some sort of religious revelation.
that's my prediction at least...lol.

It's a risk I'm willing to take, and if I come back as a raving BAC, then ya'll have been warned.
