Where is the line between defence and attack?
Self-defence is an instinct. If someone invades your home, threatens your family, you want to protect. But in war, that line blurs. Who is the aggressor? Who is defending what? In Ukraine, a people are defending their freedom. In Gaza, people are fighting for survival as well as against each other. In every war, someone believes he is right.
What if we taught soldiers not only how to fight, but also how to feel that boundary? In themselves. In their moral compass. What if prevention is not about preventing trauma, but about developing conscientious awareness?
Microdosing as an inner compass
Microdosing with magic truffles is not a cure for war. But it is a way to connect with what we feel deep inside. It enhances empathy, self-reflection, connection. Not a trip, but a subtle shift in perspective.
What if a soldier, prior to deployment, is guided through such a process? Not to weaken him, but rather to strengthen him. To help him feel when he is crossing a boundary his soul cannot bear. To not thoughtlessly follow orders, but consciously choose: can I stand behind this?
Truffles and moral consciousness
Science confirms what indigenous cultures have long known: psilocybin opens not only the brain, but also the heart. It makes not passive, but sensitive. Not week, but wise.
And that is exactly what we need in times of conflict: people who feel what they are doing. Who recognise the difference between defending and conquering. And who dare to refuse when that difference disappears.
War is not black and white
In Gaza, in Ukraine, and in countless places where violence is a daily reality, people struggle with existential questions. No one wants to lose their children. No one dreams of killing. But systems compel. Peer pressure numbs. Fear cramps.
Microdosing cannot bring peace there. But it can help awaken the human in the soldier. So that he continues to feel for himself where his limit lies.
Do we dare let soldiers be people?
Early intervention - not to make soldiers better at war, but more aware in life - requires courage. It requires a society that thinks not only in winning and losing, but in bearing and responsibility.
What if we don't wait for someone to break? What if we help him feel before he has to choose between command and conscience?
In conclusion
At MicrodosingXP, we believe in the power of awareness. In soldiers as human beings. In the ability to feel what is right, even in a world full of struggle. Truffles are not a panacea, but they can help with the most difficult question of all:
What do I do when I feel the boundary, but my environment does not recognise it?
