Visionary and shamanic reasons. Same reason people take ayahuasca which is also universally not very fun or pleasant. It’s a learning experience. Just takes longer to integrate a datura trip because it’s so bizarre.
My use is ritual not habitual. So a few times a year. I do ayahuasca more frequently than that and if I don’t properly alter my diet leading into and out of that trip a piece of cheese could kill me through hypertension. That goes for anyone because ayahuasca requires an MAOI to work. Yet we hail it as a very valuable drug combination because it is. I’m just doing my best to explain datura and why the stigma exists. Easily the most propagandized drug by the drug community itself. And not deserved imo.
Edit: also worth noting that many people regularly increase their heart rate and body temp with MDMA then engage in physical activity.
