Question:  Have you ever taken "mind altering" drugs?
 
A:  Yes 
  
Q:  What kinds?
 
A: If by mind-altering you mean the psychotropic drugs, LSD, mushrooms,  
peyote, pot, MDA, etc. I did all those. I would consider methadrine, cocaine  
and heroin mind-altering as well, though in different ways. Also pills,  
mostly uppers as downers sent me snoozing rapidly. 
  
Q: Did you take these drugs before or after you became Kundalini active? 
  
A: Not applicable because not K active 
  
 Q:Do you think your drug experience(s) had any influence on your becoming K  
 active?
 
A: N/A 
  
Q: Do you think your drug experience(s) caused you to further explore  
metaphysical and or religious questions?
 
That's difficult to say, because the cultural milieu in which I began taking  
drugs was also strong in breaking free of the Fertile Crescent Crew  
(Jewish/Christian/Muslim) religious viewpoints and exploring other  
metaphysical philosophies and systems. Just as we were interested in breaking  
free of the dominant political system. So it's difficult to attribute my  
breaking free of the Fertile Crescent Crew solely to drugs. Definitely, my  
early experiences with LSD made more exotic (exotic to my cultural  
upbringing) metaphysical systems appealing.
