Hey there eternity,
It sounds to me from what you're saying that you're still pretty deep in the integration process. Taking more of the medicine doesn't sound like a good idea, as that could lead to further confusion.
Continuing to focus on finding the answers to those questions I posed would be a helpful way. Those answers can only be found within yourself, they aren't going to come from an external source or an external medicine. Before recommending it to anyone or before thinking about doing it again, find ways in which your life is asking to be changed. See how you can come more into alignment with what you have seen and learned. The message you got seems very clear, now it is up to you to put it into practice. Don't get caught in the trap of going on one trip after another thinking that the next trip will make it all clear to you. It's already clear. You did it! You made it to the center! Now it's time to align your day-to-day life with that and be a living example of what you now know. Then once that happens and you feel settled, then it may be time to think about going again.
This is all from my own personal experience. I have gone through phases where I thought I needed to keep going back in. But the truth was, the more frequently I went in, the less efficient I was at bringing things back and the more confused and ungrounded I became. Medicine work is a balanced process. We go in, take a big journey, and come back with lots to work on. Then we put in the time it takes to address those areas of growth and then once we regain balance and stability, we can go back in. That's the process.
As for sharing with others...it can be very easy to fall into the illusion that we are "the chosen ones" to spread the medicine to all those we know and love. However, with time and reflection I have come to see that it is not one individual's role to go around spreading medicine. The people that are called to it will truly find it if they are called. Otherwise, it becomes a thing that people do in order to just have the experience, they tend to be more like tourists at the Buddhist temple rather than actual initiates doing the meditation work. There have been many so-called psychedelic prophets that have existed in the past. An example is Nick Sand and Tim Scully. Both of them had visions that they were supposed to spread LSD all over the world. However, upon reflection (this is shown in the movie The Sunshine Makers), Tim Scully admits that the idea of spreading LSD to the world was an ego dream, an oversimplified solution to the larger issues at play. The solution isn't more medicine. The solution is better integration. This is the big lesson from the 60s and 70s that the psychedelic community needs to learn if it's going to grow and prosper going forward.
This, of course, is my opinion and there will be many other opinions. That being said, this is what I have found to be most effective in producing healthy, functioning people that are able to live out their dreams rather than being stuck in confusion about reality.
Love and Blessings,
Humble Voyager
