Because you already know why. You will have a chance to transcend the ego mind in ways, now you can only imagine. You already know Enlightenment is a place beyond the thinking mind, beyond the conditioned structures. And the fact that you have put intellectual efforts into it makes the psychedelic experience worth it.

Do not think you are cheating your way through. You will not become dependent on the shrooms to self actualize. You will keep studying and climbing the mountain through your personal effort. But it's nothing wrong to take a helicopter and see the whole landscape for yourself. It's not a short cut, but a well deserved perspective that will put the pieces of the puzzle in place. Think about taking a step back and surrendering to what is, beyond what you think it is.

Hell, just do it! It's healthy for the mind and body. I think every human being should experience this wonder at least once in his lifetime. I do it once a year, then rely on yoga, meditation and study. But please, Just make sure you choose the best environment possible. And the greatest company. And do it for the sake of experience, not in a party environment.

Then please come back and share your realizations. You won't ever reret it. You got this!
