It's not the world that is not rational, it's humans' mind. Doesn't require higher powers, just a glitch in our own matrices.
As humans we experience the world through our six sense doors e.g. eyes, ears, tongue, nose, touch and mind.
To try and separate the world from our minds is non trivial. It is our very mind that allows us to perceive the world.

The matrices you describe are the sense doors.
I didn't imply that anything necessitates a higher power. If you are happier to exclude the notion I described from your world view that's okay. I'm not forcing you to be open minded!
I rather meant the logic gates ;) Or, more seriously, I was talking about the parts of the brain that handle language and reasoning, plus the memory bits.
I’m surprised that you have added “mind” as a sensory system of some kind, next to actual senses (I don’t think it is a sense of any kind on its own). Not sure what you meant, sorry.
The world is not as the scientific rational model would have one believe. These substances show that indigenous cultures are thousands of years ahead of western society when it comes to understanding consciousness.
For anyone on the outside reading this; I can recommend The BBC's LSD The Beyond Within as a starting point.
