This has been paralleled by a renewed scientific interest in psychedelic drugs, including psilocybin (the active ingredient in 'magic mushrooms'), lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) and N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT, the active ingredient in the South American decoction, ayahuasca), with a particular emphasis on the psychological, behavioral and therapeutic consequences of the mystical (or 'peak') psychedelic experience (Bogenschutz et al, 2015;Doblin, 1991;Grob et al, 2011;Grof, 1980;Haidt, 2013;Johnson, Garcia-Romeu, Cosimano, & Griffiths, 2014;Lebedev et al, 2016;MacLean, Johnson, & Griffiths, 2011;Moreno, Wiegand, Taitano, & Delgado, 2006;Nichols, 2016;Unger, 1963).…”
