It's probably way too intense to be god. God's already been doing it for eternity and is allegedly the first thing there ever was, so it's easy for him/her/them. If I just became an omniscient and omnipresent deity or force, it'd be too overwhelming*infinity.

I imagine being God would be like being dead, never being born, and being every single thing in between that has ever been. Seeing everything that has ever happened all at once... all that.

Sensory overload to the maxest of the max times infinityinfinity, dude. I don't wanna be God.

But if you were omniscient, you'd know how it is to have been god forever, so it'd be as easy, as you say it has already been for him.

I guess. I still wouldn't want to be omniscient if given the choice. That's too much right there.

Shroomahuasca was pretty gnarly, and that's just something we can achieve as mortals. I still wish to try traditional ayahuasca, but not for a long time, and after much heavy meditation.

Nowhere near being God of course, but in my opinion, a psychedelic experience like that might be as close as humans could get without dying. At least of the things I've personally experienced, I've heard and read some weird stuff that's happened to people.

Can't really say whether I would or wouldn't like to, since it's too hypothetical and removed from anything real.
Never done ayahuasca or even shroomahuasca, but my general experiences with hallucinogens were always very positive. Which obviously can only mean, that I have the capacity to be god. So bring it on universe, god me up.

I don't want to be God. Being God would make me exempt from just about all social stuff for all eternity, at least in the sense I'm used to, and I kind of enjoy having friends. Alright, I could probably go down to Earth Jesus-style and get some friends, but it'd be hella weird.

It's just a term people use for mushrooms plus an maoi, since psilocin and DMT are very similar pharmacologically...



...the maoi acts on the psilocin in mushrooms kinda like it would with DMT in ayahuasca.
