Quote: With that said those of us who interact with desired compounds are at a level in which the soul has developed to a point at which it can start to communicate and learn from levels beyond this physical existence.
Welcome, though i may agree with your understanding of the use of psychedelic drugs to enhance the depth of perceptional reception, there are but an infinite ways to come to that understanding. Psychedelics, religion, philosophy, science, arts, whatever, the point is to come to an understanding that there are no barriers/separations in our realities.
Physical, mental, psychological, intangible, its all interconnected and alive, and while psychedelics can lift the veil, they do not for all, nor all require it for such understanding.
There are many paths to what you describe, not one, but not two.
Its my belief that humans are just a part of it all, a reflection, that we also create as well.
That may sound confusing, but to summarize, its a cosmic machine, but not in the sense of human machinery. More of a machine of coming into existence, that is the core of it all. Exotic, and novel, but a community on scales we cannot yet or possibly ever conceive.
There is no separation, only existence. All is one, and one is all. existence is reality.
Everything is a part of it, nothing is excluded or neutral.

In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy.
In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers...
The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of localities and the local economies of household, neighborhood, and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.โ - Wendell Berry
