How can I experiment with alcohol on a limited budget?

According to Osho, experimenting with alcohol, especially when you already want it, won’t awaken you; it only fulfills desire and chemically helps you forget suffering. Gurdjieff urged drinking only to shatter resisters’ patterns. Instead, drink the "water of life": awareness and meditation. Being broke is a blessing: no allowance needed, total self-dependence. Look within for joy, remember yourself, and avoid the trouble and self-forgetting alcohol brings.
