Taking a “trip” on drugs can give you a pleasant experience, even of oneness, but it is more on the ego level and thus does not transform you. You don’t become a better person because you took a drug trip. You are not kinder, more compassionate, a better listener, more helpful, because you do mind-altering drugs. The drug may transform the moment, but not the person. The experience does not go deep enough, beneath the ego. Transformation is not an escape from the everyday, the seemingly sameness of life, but rather finding the treasures in these very moments.
