Chemicals and drugs turn the brain into shit ok. but when you stop using these substances the chemical reaction stop this does not means that in the meantime the brain may have been turned into shit so here i am saying that what is stopping is the chemical reactions not the damage caused to a person mind.
What we are saying is that it is the meditation that produces chemical changes in the brain, not that you need to use drugs and chemical substances to get the effect. You do know that the body produces and reacts to its own chemicals, right? That includes the brain. My question, which you dodged a second time, is how do you tell the difference between the effect of neurochemicals on the brain and an actual "higher consciousness" experience giving you these fuzzy feelings?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
