Consciousness-altering substances


Drugs that alter the consciousness or awareness are essentially of two types. Those that increase awareness or consciousness and those that decrease it or possibly some combination of increasing one area of awareness while decreasing another. As with all dualities, they are both good. On one side they simply give you more to be conscious of and on the other side they give you less to be conscious of. More is beneficial in terms of becoming more aware of self, others, feelings, intellect, spirit and multi-dimensional life. Less is beneficial in terms of needing to become less aware of primarily pain but also fear, fatigue, anger etc.
