This is a classical case of not being able to see this wood for the trees. The 'mystical bullshit' behind Goa Trance is a modern manifestation of one of the oldest and grandest philosophical traditions in the world. Granted the average Goahead at return to the source knows very little about Buddhism, but by you labeling it as mystical bullshit you are, in my view, worse than them.
