  1. Thank you to all who responded...it helped me out a lot with some mental uncertainties. I have always found the followers of Krishna Conciousness to be very wise and have adored His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and his teachings ever since i came into contact with them. Your posts have strengthened my belief in being drug free...the only reason i posted the question was to have reassurance of my beliefs when I am hanging out with my friends who use such drugs. I am still uncertain as to whether it is a sin to hang out with people who do drugs or support such a lifestyle...it is cause much tension between me and my friends. I cannot thank you enough.
  2. Thanks to whoever reads/remarks upon this posting. I am very new to Krishna Consciousness and have a lot of questions which pertain to my previous life of desires and how i got to where i am now. I have regrettably indulged into psychedelics and other intoxicants in which i am struggling to overcome and cease usage. According to the wisdom of Krishna Consciousness, where do psychedelic drugs such as shrooms, mescaline and LSD fit into this world? Why would they be here? Does it have anything to do with the human desire to explore other realms of consciousness? Are these drugs a "gift" of Krishna to humans, showing Krishna's endless mercy or are they more of a curse that humans have imposed upon themselves to travell further down the path of illusion? Would there be a proper, dedicated way of intaking such drugs such as spiritual ceremonies that the Native Americans performed before they took peyote? Could the insight one attain from taking pysechedelics lead us back to Krishna, or if one were to chant the holy names for Krishna while under the influence of such drugs, would that be a sin? I apologize for my ignorance and disobedience to Krishna for me to be in such a position to inquire about these (perhaps) trivial matters, but it has been on my mind lately, and i know if i turn to Krishna and continue to chant and offer my actions up to Krishna all my questions and desires will be fulfilled and i will live in the loving service of the Lord Krishna.
