As a side note on the use of drugs for spirtual enlightenment, I would add that in my opinion, a part of every user's desire to use drugs is inherently linked to spiritual realization, enlightenment, or curiosity about matters than can be considered spiritual. If you believe that one of the basic questions humans have about "the meaning of life" is linked to the relationship between truth and perception, then I would posit that playing with this relationship is one of the primary allures of any drug. It definately alters perception, but does it alter truth. Can you hold on to your nomal perception while under the influence, or does it vary?
As a follow up to OshnSoul and Jay-G's discussion about the use of drugs and so forth, I would note the use of peyote by Native American shaman as an example of a drug used for spiritual realization.
