he didn’t change at all post LSD. It basically was just like he was drunk, and it had no effect on him long term besides him not wanting to do it again.
I’m sorry but this does just sound like a load of hippie nonsense. “Whoa man, it like… opens up your mind to the age of Aquarian”.
If people psych themselves up for that, all power to them, but it’s nothing sublime or transcendental.
I will say it led to some absolutely excellent music in the 60s and 70s though, so I’m not completely anti hippie. I enjoy them as a distinct cultural phenomenon.
