There is a human emotion associated with the concept of monism that I once experienced after consuming the fruiting body of the mycelia of psilocybe cubensis, a product from bovine feces found in south Georgia, among other places, after a warm rainfall. It was the prevailing meme of the 60s, and advocated by human avatars throughout history. It is the gravity that pulls mass together and an emotion of warmth. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6mtbyq And just as a 3D sphere has a 1D point contact with a 2d plane, so is the focus of monism known as consciousness.
No, I gave up shrooms long ago. However, I can certainly understand the death bed request by Aldous Huxley.
