Psychedelics: Awe on Steroids
The speaker experimented with psychedelics in the context of writing a book, undergoing a hippie flip with MDMA and psilocybin. The purpose was to experience a sense of awe and unity with the universe. By using MDMA prior to psilocybin, the speaker aimed to be more open to the experience and mitigate fears of losing control or sense of self during the six-hour psychedelic experience.
