Just saw an article which claims that marijuana was first delivered throughout America as an aid to pacify the slaves. Think about it, the slaves were supposedly freed, and now with more and more people taking pot, everyone are becoming passive slaves.
Saba said the pot is worse than niuf (promisuity). It is the antithesis of the tzaddik, for the Tzadik is the daas (realization of knowledge) of the humanity, and drugs abscond daas.
Shlomo Carlbach tells over that when he opened up the House of Love and Prayer in San Francisco people thought that it must be a drug haven, and on Pesach someone came in looking for drugs and he found a hippy sitting on the floor eating Matza. The guy asked, "hey brother, where are the goods?!" So the hippy held up a piece of matza and said -- get into matza - it doesn't get better than that.
Matza is the nourishment of daas. Deferment the brain from all the fungus and levenation (levitation?) of the dimyon (imagination, fantasy, conjecture), and achieve true realization with freedom of the mind from all the constraints (mitrayim -- borders). First you might have to go through a dessert, but it will be with clarity and you will reach the holy land.
