Communicating w/ mere thoughts alone while in altered state of mind?

[Peleke4]

Someone told me of an experience with magic mushrooms. She said that during a school field trip (yes, I was tripping out as well that she actually shroomed during a school function), her and a buddy shroomed together. They were arm and arm throughout the field trip, tripping together. She said they were silent the entire time and didn't speak verbally. However, they apparently communicated with eachother through thought alone. She said the next day, they talked about the experience and it turned out that they both remember exactly what they were communicating through mere thoughts... they were on the same page! I found this really fascinating. It's as if the shrooms completely stripped away all barriers for a short time, made them completey open-minded to communicate in such a manner. I don't know. I'm posting this because I really thought it was amazing. Any thoughts?

If they were tripping how do they know for sure they weren't tripping about not talking?

As they were in an altered state of mind they may actually not recollect what actually happened.

Just putting another perspective out there.

As someone who has dabbled in various "recreational" drug experiences (lsd, opium, marijuana)... I can tell you that I have had the experience of telepathy, it was more one sided for me though, people we're verbally responding to what I was thinking (it was really weird).

Shamans are supposed to be really well adapted to this kind of thing, I think some tribes engage in opium use, I've read where they are able to move whole rows of trees by only using the mind alone. Perhaps it takes an altered state of mind (with or without the use of drugs) to realize these things are possible or even to experience them.
