This effect is about shifting one's awareness to that stage, to the level on which one's animal functions are concerned. So what does that mean? For example all functions of being's time awareness and self consciousness are masked; The experiencing person ist solely an animal with its awareness of basic feelings without any timely extended mind consctruct. So if there is danger around you, you can hear, like not recognizable sounds (i.e. engines) you experience exactly that kind of fear, an animal would have. An example are fish who feel/hear ships with combustion engines, they will experience an ongoing fear; at the same time they steadily forget about the fear some seconds ago, so this is in no way traumatizing as it would be for humans. But they also cannot reflect about it; Cannot compare it to sth they learned before, and so on. | This effect is about shifting one's awareness to that stage, to the level on which one's animal functions are concerned.

In case of experiencing a stage of [[Unity and interconnectedness]] and also a [[Spirituality enhancement]] one might become a glimpse of a vision what the mission for one's life might be; Combined with a experience of deity mysticism (level of consciousness described by [[Ken Wilber]] ), an experience of god, so to speak, one gets the impression to be the chosen one. The importance of this personal feeling cannot in any way overestimated; It is like other experiences ineffable to others who did not experience a similar state. As this effect has a transforming power for one's further life and serves with profound will power to overcome any obstacles it is in the same time a tightrope walk to the pathological peculiarity of Grandiose delusions [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandiose_delusions] An interpretation would be, that this sort of experience is theoretically available to everybody and it is generally not false as humans are the species in creation which is make in God's own likeness (but here the metaphysical area is touched, which is very problematically in an encyclopedian site like psychonautwiki at this time.) | In case of experiencing a stage of [[Unity and interconnectedness]] and also a [[Spirituality enhancement]] one might become a glimpse of a vision what the mission for one's life might be; Combined with a experience of deity mysticism (level of consciousness described by [[Ken Wilber]] ), an experience of god, so to speak, one gets the impression to be the chosen one.

Spiritual or transpersonal effects, based on cognitive effects can be overwhelming and very difficult to integrate (TODO harm reduction article to psychosis and stuff). | Spiritual or transpersonal effects, based on cognitive effects can be overwhelming and very difficult to integrate (TODO harm reduction article to psychosis and stuff). | ||

To go the way into the spiritual realm of man's consciousness abilities it is required to strengthen one's mind's and soul' skills by practicing for a long time; Exercises to strengthen will power, compassion, equanimity and much more. | To go the way into the spiritual realm of man's consciousness abilities it is required to strengthen one's mind's and soul' skills by practicing for a long time; Exercises to strengthen will power, compassion, equanimity and much more. | ||
In case this is not done or much | In case this is not done or much too little, on taking psychedelics in a certain setting (probably kinda high social deprivation), results in deep experiences of spiritual realm which are subject of misinterpretation. These interpretations, which hardly can be communicated with anyone of the outer world, of a real and based social environment might lead to an ongoing delusion. | ||
Delusions and ongoing issues in non-integration, or let's phrase it: missing approaches integrating those will lead to a lonely, isolated way of life; When one meets only people with similar non-based but flying ideas and forgets about old friends and non-integrated problems with relationships, former partners, parents, and so on. All these life style leads to emerging psychotic episodes if all that peaks. | |||
From that point it is not far to psychiatric conditions or in case they can be avoided, to long hard work from basic on; Which can be biased somehow. | |||
