I get that. I don’t think I’ll ever go fully vegan but I’ve become much more conscious about what I eat. Much more lentils and good rice and dates and stuff like that. See what happens.

Did you also have the impression while tripping how obviously wrong, bad and really unhealthy heavily processed stuffed tasted? Or more like a philosophical experience?

It was a purely philosophical experience in which I lost all believe into gods and artificial distinctions between humans and other animals. I cannot come with any reason, why eating humans must be wrong, but eating a cow should be okay. So I decided, that harming either of them must be wrong and my ability for compassion had to extent further than my own species. There is no God to tell my how to be good. I have to decide for myself and I decided to inflict less harm on my fellow earthlings.

Also, there is no free will.
