Psilocybin study results overview

I personally believe there are many different kinds of intelligence, and that the idea of using one IQ number to summarize them all up is completely ridiculous.

For example, there is musical intelligence, linguistic intelligence, mathematical intelligence, social intelligence, athletic intelligence, artistic intelligence, spiritual intelligence, mechanical intelligence, etc…

In any case, one of the U.S.’s premier medical institutions just published an article on a way to boost your spiritual IQ.

Now, this sort of information has been known for greater than 5000 years, but I think it’s interesting that the folks at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine would go out of their way to scientifically vouch for it.

Here are some of the more interesting findings:

* More than 60% of volunteers said they had a “full mystical experience”

* “Many of the volunteers in our study reported, in one way or another, a direct, personal experience of the ‘beyond’”, said Roland Griffiths who led the study at Johns Hopkins University.

* A third of the subjects said the experience was the single most spiritually significant thing of their lifetimes.

* 2 months after taking the mushrooms, subjects reported increases in well-being and satisfaction with life, according to the study.
