The fascinating thing about this thread is how much it both resonates and clashes with my own experiences of psychedelics.
Met a LOT of demons, including one deeply disturbing encounter with Jimmy Savile, and at least one angel, distinguishable by its total commitment to Good.

I don't think I believed fully in Good or Evil as metaphysical concepts until those experiences pulled me over the edge.
Still, I know of some dealers in the completely amoral version as well. Interesting contrast.

I spent a while thinking I knew what absolute Good was, but after getting bitten in the ass by it enough times I decided there are too many exceptions for the concept to be useful. now I just try to do the most good I can in the current context, which doesn't always look the same

Oh, but I don't mean absolute good.
I mean that there is a prevailing interest in making things good/better, whatever that means at the time.
The most common manifestation is cleaning whatever is dirty in the vicinity, ridiculous as that might sound. Soap and rags and water.

yeah one of the monks at OAK tells a story about how when they were feeling really good and clear and spacious after a retreat they found themselves spontaneously cleaning trash up and i think there's a thing here
