    I once knew a person who believed that he was capable of creating things with his mind. After he saw the movie 'Lost Boys', he began to believe that he could be a vampire.

    'Maggots, maggots. You're eating maggots, Mike, he would say.'

    He lived believing he could change things with his mind and create things with his mind.

    He's okay now, but he did waste many good years.

    Rituals and Rites to join Fraternities of Brotherhoods and/or such sometimes come with such initiation rites.


    Do you want to believe what you see or do you want to believe what you think?

    The more of these you do, the more sure you will become in believing you are capable of doing such.

    The term psychedelic is derived from the Greek words ψυχή (psyche, "soul, mind") and δηλείν (delein, "to manifest"), hence "soul-manifesting", the implication being that psychedelics can access the soul and develop unused potentials of the human mind.[7] The word was coined in 1956 by British psychiatrist, Humphry Osmond, the spelling loathed by American ethnobotanist, Richard Schultes, but championed by the American psychologist, Timothy Leary.[8]

    Aldous Huxley had suggested to Humphry Osmond in 1956 his own coinage phanerothyme (Greek "phaneroein-" visible + Greek "thymos" soul, thus "visible soul").[9] Recently, the term entheogenic has come into use to denote the use of psychedelic drugs in a religious/spiritual/mystical context.

    They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong except 1. That maybe psychedelics are not good.
