LSD and the chakra system

tripping on lsd did make the chakra system a whole lot more plausible for me, after initially opposing the concept. especially during a trip I took in the mountains it felt like the heart chakra was wide open and strongly energized. it wasn't often that I was so grounded in reality, the feeling was like an anchor.
also, I realized that I often felt a little tickle at the position of the third eye even as young as 6 or 7. it is today what I feel most. to what effect, why, etc. - I don't know.

i dont think its specific to LSD but any entheogen can make the chakra system a more conscious (Possible pseudo-psychological) perspective on energy and the flow and control of subtle energy. Do i think its a great system? yes
am i 100% sure that its not just a construct our mind employs to bring about happiness or to justify itself? no

When reading books about subtle energy, kundalini, and the chakras you can almost "feel" the subtle energy around us

so the trouble in my mind is differentiating between what could be a tool or catalyst for jungian evolution. or what could just be a self induced psychosis. i dont mean to be so negetive beleive me being a buddhist i would prefer the former to the latter

For me it's jus a psychological factor. Simple suggestion
