DeRopp sees drugs as one way for the initiate to get the haziest sense of what the fourth room is about. He says that the psychedelics (among which he includes hashish) can offer very temporary and "cheap" self-transcendence. But the revelations of trips are subject to a law of diminishing returns. Ultimately, the drug experience wastefully "burns out the centers of spiritual energy," all of which must operate at full potency if the student aspires to enter the fourth room. DeRopp never really gets much more specific, which has caused some grumbling among heads who are open...

Everywhere he went, Brody was accompanied by his 20-year-old bride Renee, a quiet, fey brunette who says she met the heir last December when she was dealing some hashish to a friend of his. On an impulse excursion to Puerto Rico last week, Mike and Renee trailed a cloud of marijuana smoke behind them...
...joke to the young and a grievous worry to their parents. In their quest for sensory experience, an alarming number of kids are swallowing its message whole. Marijuana ("pot," "grass," "boo," "tea," "mary jane," "broccoli," "weed") is their favorite preparation; in lesser numbers, they are smoking hashish ("hash"), taking mescaline, peyote, psilocybin, LSD ("acid"), using barbiturates and sedatives ("goofers," "downers," "red devils," "red birds," "pheenies," "green dragons," "yellow jackets," "tooies"), swallowing or injecting amphetamine stimulants ("crystal," "crank," "meth," "bennies," "dexies," "Christmas trees," "speed"). The prices of their mind excursions flutuate almost daily with the black market where kids must make...
...whether long-term use can produce effects comparable to alcohol's cirrhosis or tobacco's cancer and emphysema. Marijuana's active ingredients?chemicals known as tetrahydrocannabinols (THC)?can cause LSD-type psychotic hallucinations when administered in pure form. (Such a reaction can happen considerably more easily with hashish, a concentration of dried Cannabis resins some six times as powerful as marijuana.) Pot affects the sense of time, but not motor and perceptual skills. It is not a narcotic; unlike alcohol in heavy doses, it does not produce physical dependency. Users can, however, become psychologically dependent on it, spending most...
Similarly, there are songs that spin such sentiments as "Happy Birthday, Abie Baby, emanci-mother-fuckin'-pator of the slaves" or LBJ took the IRT and found the youth of America on LSD." Oh, and there are songs about sodomy, hashish and the age of aquarius. As you can see, there's a lot of good stuff here...
