I'm reading a Wikipedia article on Vajrayana Buddhism and it says: "In Tantric Buddhism, which originated in the Tibeto-Himalayan region, cannabis serves as an important part of a traditional ritual..." It cites a journal that I don't have access to, so I can't look too much deeper into the source. What's the historical background of this claim? Are there serious documents or Buddhist texts showing the use of cannabis or other drugs?
