I'm just curious if anyone feels a sense of 'evil' whenever high. I know that when I smoke I'm much more spiritual and reflective and view the world in a different way. I feel some sort of a connection and feel comfortable expressing myself. I'm curious to explore the spiritual mind and how it pertains to reality.

You know how Rastafarians smoke to have a better connection with God? Lately it's gone the other way with me, I feel darkness and a sense of evil. Over the summer I had a wild and crazy time smoking quite often. I began to change as a person and my spritual beliefs began to change. I started dressing differently, behaving wildly, and soon enough I bought a hand-carved Ouija board and I was messing around with that by myself. And I feel that I connected with some sort of spirit of darkness doing all this and now my life has changed.

Marijuana played a big role in this and elevated my mind spirituality. Whenever I was sober I was fine and went on with everyday life. But when I would smoke, I was inclined to go on some risk-taking adventure or grab the ouija board. It was like I changed into a different person.

So is there a link between marijuana and the devil? I researched this and didn't find too much information, but I guess satanists used marijuana in a ritual to summon the devil/demons way back in the 1700's. And I guess other groups used it sporadically throughout history. Nothing much has been reported on this topic though.

I'm curious because I have felt some sort of connection that I never felt before in my entire life. Thanks everyone.
Yeah, me and my friend have kind of had weird experiences on mushrooms before with this "evil presence" that I've sometimes noticed. I'm a christian and believe that there are demonic forces that try to toy with us constantly, and I believe we're more suseptable when our mind is altered, because we are no longer on stable turff intellectually; more defenceless against convincing ourselves otherwise when bad things are "put into our heads". Think of it this way: do you think you're a nicer, less selfish, more patient, more forgiving person when you're high (or drunk for that matter?) I know personally when I'm high I'm usually lazy, and take the easier (and often of less quality) choice when it comes to food, activities, etc. I've stopped denying that I (and for the most part my friends) am not the same person- not as GOOD of a person when I'm stoned.
