i would agree with you if this is what you are suggesting. i believe that all different states of reality exist simultaenously and by ingesting shrooms or whatever we simply unlock the door to them. a bit like changing the resolution on yr computer monitor only in your mind.
If humanity got to a state where shrooms became a part of our diet permanently and our brains eventually evolved to accomodate this then the laws of physics written would prob include explanations for monstors coming out the tv screen, or whatever trippy shit becomes the norm.
Shrooms are both a drug and a power. The more people take them, the more time humans spend on them, then the more their power becomes a part of society. However at the moment since they are taken by so few the reality of shrooms is limited in the potentials it can offer to deal with a generally non tripping society.
All power corrupts of course.

That's some Phillip K. Dick shit there.
I don't quite agree with what you're saying, but I think there is some truth to it. I believe psychedelic drugs get their hallucinogenic by extreme activation of the part of the brain that imagines and is most likely largely influenced by the subconscious, which is linked to the Jungian collective consciousness, which while it may not be truly a mass of connective consciousness, perhaps in the subconscious we are much more aware of the world around us based on are own observations to such an extent of extreme intuition that is mixed in with complete nonsense when released via drugs (as in the old Greek Oracles) that has been mistaken for clairvoyance.
