From website:
Quote:
The States of Consciousness Research Team at Johns Hopkins needs your help. We’re conducting an anonymous, web-based research study to characterize experiences of a personal encounter with something that someone might call “God” (e.g., the God of your understanding), “Higher Power,” or “Ultimate Reality.”
If you’ve ever had such an experience, we would greatly appreciate it if you would take our survey. If you know of others who’ve ever had such an experience please send them the link and encourage them to participate. This includes people who had such an experience long ago.
As you may know, our team has conducted survey and laboratory studies characterizing experiences with psilocybin and other hallucinogens. You can see our body of work here: csp.org/psilocybin. This new survey is an important extension of our published and ongoing research about mystical experiences occasioned by psilocybin and other classic hallucinogens.
To participate visit the following website:
www.PsychedelicEncounteringTheDivine.org
Principal Investigator: Roland R. Griffiths, Ph.D. Protocol IRB00054696
Approved February 27, 2015
I've done the survey and it made me think a lot about the main spiritual experience I had on psilocybin.

I saw God while huffing Whippets in 1974.

I experienced the white light on cannabis, which is surely an aspect of God.

I guess if you felt you experienced a personal encounter with something that you might call god, A higher power, or ultimate reality as suggested by the survey introduction, I'd go for it and complete the survey. The white-light thing is often recalled by people who have had out of body experiences.
It will be interesting to see the results when they're all collated.

I experienced God but I'm not sure if it was just the ketamine
