Well thats a good question. Hmmmmm for me it does. This knowledge is why I no longer believe in spiritual notions about anything. The whole idea behind soul is that our memories and lives proceed on in some after life in some form that is similar to what we experience now and I think thats just a way for people to psychologically deal with their own death. Its a need for many people to believe in such things and its understandable.

I know I come off hard on religion and spirituality but I think its so often asking about what lies beyond the true nature of reality and the supernatural. These kinds of questions to me are pointless and we should work with what tools we have (science and subjective experience) to understand the truth about ourselves and our universe.

This brings up another good question. How does the psychedelic experience and or mystical experience lead those who have experienced it to that realization? Many people have certainly come up with these kinds of interpretations (depending on the culture and the context) but what about altered states of consciousness specifically causes us to learn (or think we learn) such deeper meaning?

Many dmt users here come to talk about things like this all the time after coming back from 'hyperspace' but why? I have some ideas but I want to hear others reasons for why their own or the the experiences they have read about or heard from others lead to these kinds of conclusions about the nature of reality. I also want to hear how this realization has filled of unfulfilled a spiritual void left by realizing that we have no soul (soul in the judeo-christian-islamic sense)? Our soul if we have to call it something is really just everything and nothing.
