It is no coincidence that spiritual cultural leaders like Shamans, Elders, High Priestesses and Priest etc., used some sort of mind stimulants hallucinogens such as peyote, opiates, magic mushrooms, cocoa, THC's, in order to connect with their creator/deity on the astral-plane. Today, the sect of the Hashishin (where the name assassin's originated) still exists in the form of the Ismailis (Ishmaelites) whose undisputed chief, endowed by them with divine attributes, is the Aga Khan, or all one has to do is to observe the ancient Hebrew (Israelites) High-Priest wardrobe to see the resemblance of mushroom worshipping.
