Psychedelics allow us to delve deeper into our subconscious, and thin the line separating the ego from what's beyond it. They can help us regain lost memories, that maybe we have oppressed from pain or merely forgotten, and to explore other paths of thinking. We shouldn't believe everything they say is true, however, because psychedelics are only as true as the information contained in the deeper recesses of our brain... however, I believe that the subconscious knows much more of the truth of reality, so we will discover more truth while on psychedelics or meditating or doing yoga or any other exercise that allows us to contact the subconscious more, than while sober

So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.

My Christian friends and i were discussing the very same idea. But the fact remians that since i was brought up with Buddhist conditioning and he was brought up with Christian conditioning, our trips reflected and magnified these concious and subconcious trates. While he would have conversation with God, i would have experiences of what closeley resembled the "clear light".

So as far as you question goes, i feel that psycadelics merely disolve the filters between our concious (gross levels) and subconcious (subtle levels) of mind, and experiences manifests always in relation to how our minds have been conditioned on both of these two levels.

How much "meaning" we derive from such experiences seems to be purley an act of post-trip projection.

Indeed. Psychedelics are tools. Not "the way".
