Hi David,
Thanks for your thoughts.
I definitely don’t doubt that psychedelics addresses the emotional and subjective consciousness aspects of fear of death.
Although I haven’t tried the psychedelics in any form, I believe they have massive therapeutic value. I’ve read “The Spirit Molecule” by Dr. Rick Strassman on DMT and the documentary on youtube of the same name.
However, I don’t believe it they affect the philosophy of nature of consciousness, about whether it’s emergent from the physical world or primary and either distinct from and/or gives rise to the cosmos.
