do (drug) become better person

I hate this proposition because I feel it also comes from an extremely western and commodity-brained, colonial standpoint. No matter tons of indigenous and ancient peoples have/had ellaborate rituals with a collective cultural meaning and weight around taking any of their (often sacred) psychoactives, you just need show up at a chaman's home, slide him a 100 and say "one spiritual epiphany please", as if you were walking into a 7/11 and buying a stick of gum.
