Theos-Talk Archives (September 2001 Message tt00280)

I know precious little about *shamanism*. I respect people's beliefs. If
people use hallucinogens to *get* spiritual experiences, then, for me, these
experiences are worth the price of these substances. Love has nothing to do
with this. If we truly spiritually minded, then we are after love, service
and sacrifice. I don't see where these substances have any value for those
who follow the path of our Lord of Love.
So you do prescribe drugs for *spiritual advancement*? Etzion
