I think its a pretty bold claim to say that yoga and mindfulness meditation aren't connected to mystical experiences

one time I had a unity experience while drinking and dancing to punk music (I literally was everything), i can see how the alcohol and the dancing could have played a role in making that experience more likely to happen.

Doesn't feel right for me to vote,  I'm more of a foreign tourist than a citizen around these parts...

That is a rather polite way to put it.




The preponderance of yoga and mindfulness experiences do not lead to unitive experiences. Therefore lumping them in willy-nilly with shroom experiences causes a lot of confusion.





the popular way people do things rarely goes very deep.

I get you, I visited many spiritual centers for years and was turned off in the same way.

I think this a good idea. I actually don't know if practice is a cause or a symptom.
