Yeah you would think you'd get all lazy but not at all. I honestly didn't feel anything other than internal calmness and focus. I believe the original maryada is to put 5 leaves but some people go a little overboard. It tastes like a desi milkshake only with a cannabis aftertaste. Pretty easy to make, you should try it out.  

@californiasardar1 The whole 'work' thing got hijacked in itself, it was originally about equality for people of colour then it morphed into something else. You have to check out Bill Burr's take on it.     

Lucky you! That makes good sense. I thought that it might hamper physical coordination in battle, but in small doses it probably wouldn't.  

I have actually had the opportunity to drink Degh with Nihangs. I felt relaxed, calm, and kinda focused. It kills that anxiety knot-like feeling you get in your stomach. Because of this, I always thought of it as a way to calm your  nerves before battle. Imagine preparing yourself to launch an attack against some Mughal, Afghan, or some other adversary. The anticipation, unless you're at a high level of bhakti, will get to anyone. Your heart would probably be beating out of your chest, some may even shake and feel jumpy. Drinking Degh essentially eliminates that feeling completely and allows you to focus in on the task at hand. 

Why are people afraid of ghosts? 1) They prove death is not the end. 2) They’re supernatural.    3) They have interesting stories, many films are based on them (like Ghost) as well as books. 4) Before the age of science they were very popular.
