I think your right about shrooms as a method of contact with the other side. I quit shrooms because the last time I was shrooming I was home alone playing pinball (I have 2 arcade pinball machines) and I was having conversations with something not of this world (ghost, alien, etc). At the time I was having a good time and great conversation but when I came down it scared the hell out of me!!! Did the shrooms open up a way to see the other side or was it all in my mind I canā??t say for sure.
