Abstract
Mystical Experiences and Psychedelic Experiences are experiences that lead to extraordinary states of consciousness. Therefore, they can contribute significantly to solving the problem of the source of consciousness, which is an important issue in the philosophy of mind. Because, logically, when a considerable number of specific cases exist within a subject under consideration, it is important to focus the investigation on these specific cases for a solution. The attempt to unravel the source of consciousness is associated with the pursuit of answering these profound ontological questions: How and why does everything exist? Could nothing exist? What is the source of existence? Of course, it is consciousness that asks such questions and seeks answers. This sutudy is based on the laws of the emergence from esence, the presence of inexhaustible potential and the absence of absolute nothingness (explained in the article text).
