To add an additional point about Hinduism, it seems like a distinction is made between ritual use and recreational use: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_and_religion (βIn Hinduism, wise drinking of bhang (which contains cannabis), according to religious rites, is believed to cleanse sins, unite one with Shiva and avoid the miseries of hell in the future life. It is also believed to have medicinal benefits and is used in Ayurvedic medicine.[37] In contrast, foolish drinking of bhang without rites is considered a sin.[38]β).
