We all know that there are certain elements that affect our consciousness, certain substances. For instance, if one were to drink alcohol, their consciousness would become affected. If one were to take drugs, their consciousness becomes affected. It’s like a cloud comes over your consciousness. The word we use usually is torpor. And you enter into a torpor which alters the way that you think and percieve things if you weren’t ingesting these drugs. Now, the fact that ingested drugs affect us is self-evident to everybody. However, we don’t have to ingest things to be affected. We don’t have to take things to change consciousness.
