I fasted about 48 hours to experience a semi ascetic acid trip. Was a good time; had some incredible break throughs. Dived into a pool, and it felt like I was diving into a kaleidoscope of colors. Can't recommend anyone experience it that way, nor would I say I'd do it that way again, but taking your mind and body through moderated extremes can be pretty profound; assuming you have people around you to make sure you're not doing anything particularly stupid to hurt yourself or others.
