Science, marijuana and shiva’s fountain

Lod shiva, the hindu God is associated with marijuana. He is depicted in inages as wrapped in snakes at many points on his body. It is said that the biggest river of India, the river ganges comes from shivas head. This is the symbolic story describing the effects of having marijuana.
In short, marijuana relaxes the body muscles in stages. It has a delayed reaction time. About four hours after the.intake, the intensity of the drug is felt.
The marijuana users come our with some out of the box ideas because of the brain connectivity that increases with the intake. These users also show signs of lack of empathy. Utlimately, a study proves,  regular and heavy use shrinks the grey matter of the brain. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/nov/10/cannabis-smoking-brain-shrinks-increases-connectivity-study-texas
This study provides sone leads to follow on how it works, the subject of my enquiry. The reason for my enquiry is that it is said that in shiva tradition, marijuana is used to initially give a taste of a spiritual experience but ultimately you learn to have such experiences without the use of drug. My personal experience suggests that the spiritual experiences are far superior in quality and long term effect on wellveing than the drug induced effects. However, the drug used effect is similar in physical sensations it causes and the fact that you see visions. The negative conscequence is that the visions are not in your control at all. Every action depicted in the visions is very fast followed by multiplication of the image by several times. Before the images, one feels the pressure behind the base of the nose. Then you feel the energy going upwards, just like a fountain of energy towards the top of the headand then coming forward in between the two eyes. This is shivas real fountain. I wonder if it the result of extra activity caused in the trochlear nerve. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trochlear_nerve

When the muscles in the brain relax, brain starts to function faster. The THC stimulates the Tectum in the midbrain, responsible for visual and auditory function. Midbrain also has the four crainial nerves. When the midbrain relaxes, the flow of the cerebrospinal fluid must increase casing the sensation of energy rush from the base of the nose upwards.

“the neural tube is the embryonic precursor to the central nervous system.”
 “the cells of the neural plate form a cord-like structure that migrates inside the embryo and hollows to form the tube.”

In deep meditation, you divide the body for focus on frontal axis and saggital axis.
