Shiva and cannabis culture; cannabis (ganja/bhang) has been used for millennia in India and Nepal, particularly during Maha Shivaratri. Devotees smoke it in chillums or consume bhang to honor Shiva, believed to use it for meditation. Despite legal restrictions since the 1980s, cannabis remains integral to religious rituals.
The Goa trance scene; in the 1960s-90s, Goa became a global hub for psychedelic culture, birthing the Goa trance genre that influenced electronic music worldwide.
