Can you hallucinate objects/beings on psychedelics that can hurt you in "real life"?

Materialism is a hallucination.

And an inferior one at that.

Sorry leo you didn't address my question at all.  Why is materialism a hallucination?  Why is the material world (or whatever you wanna call it) a hallucination?  Just because you took a powerful hallcucinating drug and saw how is the brain capable of hallucinating stuff (we already know that because we dream every night)?.  And don't tell me the psychedelic and the brain are hallucination because that would  be perfect circular reasoning right there!.

@Someone here agian, there is no brain. What you are experiencing as a physical reality right now is actually not physical at all, it's purely nothing. No physicality to it.

Of course they are.

Even your reasoning is a hallucination.

Even you are a hallucination.

Without hallucination, there is nothing.

And even with hallucination, there is still nothing. Lol. A hallucination is just nothing.

No problem but "how do you know"? 

What is your evidence?  " I took a psychedelic and I saw mind blowing hallucinations"...fine what is the link between that and your conclusion that everything is a hallucination?  I just can't see the link at all. 

I'm talking the common sense perspective that all human beings intuitively know. You are presenting something new and radical with no evidence whatsoever!

The evidence is Awakening.

You will never get it without awakening.

If you understood what I'm saying, you'd be dead. So of course you cannot understand it. Your mind will not allow you to go there.

@Someone here what you realize on psychedelics, is that your life has been a hallucination, an alternative and much more stable one. You are an infinite field of consciousness, with infinite possibilities.

How do you know? It appears the exact opposite of that.!

[WhatAWondefulWorld]

@Someone here it appears that way to the ego mind. The ego too is not real, just as imaginary as the "physical reality" you are in. When you awaken, if you awaken, then you will understand, maybe it won't stick with you, it took me multiple awakenings for it to stick.

@Dand @Someone here even Neurotransmitters are imaginary.

There is an empirical method for testing Leo's claims, try psychedelics and find out for yourself. 

Why would changing the neurotransmitter cause you to go from not hallucinating to hallucinating? Look at how you just call your normal sense of reality 'real' but anything that differs a 'hallucination'. Even from your own materialist paradigm, the only thing that changes when you take a psychedelic is the molecule that binds to your serotonin receptors.

How ridiculous does it sound to claim that the 'sober' receptor serotonin is the 'one true neurotransmitter' that shows you real reality, whilst every other neurotransmitter shows you 'fake' reality.

Regardless it doesn't matter because the brain itself is also a hallucination, this isn't something I'm claiming with no evidence, the evidence is already there, you're just not speaking it's language.

The difference between reality and hallucination is also testable with empirical methods. 

For example, a dude on a psychedelic sees a beautiful popsicle and starts eating it, his hallucination tells him it tastes sooo good, so he just kept eating this magical popsicle for an hour or so.

When his high wore off, and he looked in the mirror, he saw that just been putting in his mouth a kitchen knife and tried to eat it as well for hours.

Now he cannot eat and talk normally, not to mention the multiple scars all over his face /mouth. 

There is a difference, but you are being naive guys.

What imaginary are you talking about for sanity sake?  Here is the world around you! What more evidence do you need to know it's real! ? " oh but it might be a dream".. Who said a dream isn't real? It's real (as you live it) and there is a mechanism behind it (doesn't matter which perspective you look at it).  

I think we need to define the terms "real".. "imaginary".. "hallucination" if we wish to go somewhere from this conversation. 

You can keep calling everything an imaginary hallucination all you want or call it real but it's gonna remain the same exactly as it is not caring about your perspectives.

@Someone here hallucination: appearance without substance. That's what this is.

Good. Let's just agree on that definition.  So you are saying the world is an appearance without substance.. that is to say there is nothing behind it. No one causing it. No reason for its existence at all. Not even a dreamer who is dreaming it up.. It's impossible for it to exist yet here it is!

That's basically what you are saying. Well I simply disagree for obvious reasons.  But if that convinced you fine. Go for it!

If we use a computer analogy, yes we get it every-reality out there is imagined by Consciousness, which makes them as real as it can get.

The sober-reality is a special type of hallucination because it is like the same server, to which you keep on coming, day today. Compared to other hallucinations where you step your toes and then leave those places. 

Which means that as long as we are here,  this is our home, because we are not in reality number 0009 or 3749, but we are in this server-reality, and we keep coming here for some reason we keep coming here every day, the same place, WHY? Why is a good question,

@WHO IS @Someone here

Seems like you’re on an earth, in a universe, moving, talking, walking around, etc. How do you know you aren’t actually everything else...everything but ’you’...thus making it appear there is a ‘you’, which is moving, talking, walking around, etc? Every single thing you could check, would be more of that which is fooling yourself of the inversion. The more proof obtained, the more deluded you’d be. As a thought arises in response to this, even that - is what’s being pointed to here...and not even.

[WhatAWondefulWorld]

@Nahm the earth is an idea. There is no physical earth floating around empty space in a universe. Nothing is hidden from you, what you see and feel is what is. There is nothing else.
