I appreciate your sentiments.

When we make the sacred mundane, or the mundane sacred, we risk undermining our ability to invest and vest energy to things as sacred, in effect taking an aspect of spirituality potentially at least, for granted.

If we have mystical experience constantly, then what of those experiences that invariably to the individuals stand out as beyond the constant or ordinary? DMT being the primary example here insofar as in many cases the state of awe and appreciation in can impart is frequently interpreted as a spiritual experience, and perhaps in many ways it is, but nevertheless it is remarkably easy to both take such things for granted and to also have them distract people from the potential for other types of spiritual experiences. In some cases people become dependent upon things like DMT to have a spiritual experience, or at least what they feel and think is one.

As for Tao, what benefit and use does noticing it have?

I have written of how psychedelics affect the regions of the brain that deal with perception of self and other and how even in other mammals this goes away on them and can affect their behavior. The sense of oneness seems chemically induced in some cases and this can be done on purpose, I find it to be pleasant and even intoxicating in a way, but it also stands in stark contrast to other spiritual experiences that make use of the divisions as much as the unity.

I am outspoken against teleology in this thread, that is my perspective. A lot of people here disagree with me on this: humanity and the human experience is not the point of nature or the purpose and meaning of existence. Nature informs humanity, it is not that humanity informs nature. Or so I believe.
