		<description>As salaam aleikum!

Great website! I was reading your conversion story and I was wondering if you could expand on this: 

"The prophetic knowledge our guide talked about was a kind of
spiritual existentialism. It was a matter of how you enter a room, which foot
you entered with, that you sipped water but gulped mild, that you said
"bismillah" (In the name of Allah) before eating or drinking, and
"alhamdulillah" (Praise be to Allah) afterwards, and so on. But rather than
seeing this as a burden of hundreds of "how-to's", it was more like what the
LSD experience taught us, that there is a "right" way to do things that has, if
you will, a cosmic resonance. It is a constant awareness of courtesy to the
Creator and His creation that in itself ensures and almost visionary
intensity."

I want to know specifically what those LSD experiences showed you--if you could describe it, it would be nice as I have never done anything of that kind, nor do I intend to. :)</description>
