I'm going to say yes, because I heard Rick Strassman explaining how DMT is active in your normal everyday perceptions. DMT is what gives the world its magic glow of wonder... you may remember this from special moments in your childhood. So-called antipsychotic drugs nullify the action of the brain's natural psychedelic chemicals, and so make the world more grey and dull.
a lot of Strassman's ideas are more conjecture than anything.

N,N-DMT is indigenous to the human brain, 5-MEO-DMT is indigenous to the human brain, and N,N-DMT is produced in the brains of rats during birth and during death. I'm relatively certain these are the only facts that have been ascertained in a lab. I could be wrong; perhaps DMT is produced during human births and deaths also. It's been a while since I read the research papers on the subject. However I do know all that shit about dreaming, all that shit about the pineal gland, et cetera....it's completely fabricated. Science has no clue what role DMT plays in everyday perception.
 
Its the most intense trip i will ever have.

Unfortunetly this can be a very negative feeling for me. I guess im at the point where i know i know nothing, and will never know, but i cant accept that. Whenever i get too far into thougt i can cause myself panic attacks. Its just too much for me to handle sometimes. Especially death, number one cause of panic attacks for me, whenever it comes up i feel horrible.

Sometimes i wish i could be that idiot that lives his life not thinking at all, complete disregard for anything and anyone. But i also know that would be living a very small life.

Life, the never ending question....

Id also like to add that at the same time i think it is nothing like a psychedelic journey at all, far more powerful. So powerful that sometimes on psychedelics you wish to return to reality, but it seems odd to want to grab hold of something that you think you know so well, but in reality know almost nothing about.

You can put words to a strong dose of a chemical, life is inexpressible.

You are indeed wrong. DMT is produced in the brain throughout life and even has been detected in the liver. Actually every living cell has trace amounts of DMT.

What Strassman says is not speculation. He is a good scientist and the author of a great book called DMT The Spirit Molecule.

The pineal gland is not a fabrication. You must be a pretty big expert to just say science has no clue. And yet you said it was a while since you read papers on the subject. How strange.
 
where is the evidence DMT is produced by the pineal gland? Where is the evidence DMT plays any role in our dreams or our consciousness whatsoever? The evidence is nowhere. I don't need to be an expert to say science has no clue. Science already knows science has no clue.

the thing I was unsure about was if the birth and death increase in DMT production was exclusive to rats or had also been observed in humans. Either way, that is a far cry from the assumptions Strassman has made.
 
anyone that has actually read "The Spirit Molecule" and has come away not entirely dissolusioned... i pray for you.
 
Everyones life is there own personal trip. I am you as you as are me as we are all together. However.. each person lives in there own world.. seen from there perspective. Everyone has there own world.

Agreed; whilst it was fantastic that someone got to research DMT, the outcomes were just stupid. Ridiculous book and ideas postulated therein.
 
Reading your reply, its like a smile is trying to crack through mah skowl... Im glad there is someone else out there!

aha. But you can only describe it by its differences or its similarities to everyday existence! Not only that, but every individual characteristic of being alive can only be understood in its relation to something else! Indeed, awareness itself is the distinction between all things. Big and small, up and down, before and after, here and there, all propagated by our own consciousnesses.

why do you think our zero-dimensional singularity single-handedly compelled time to exist merely by changing states at all? Why do you think possibility itself is slowly but surely collapsing into one singular unit through nothing but our own observation of reality?

the universe is the vessel through which the universe can create itself in its own image.

I am very, very close to solving this riddle.

I hope it was a toothless one, their my total faves <3

As to the riddle, nbsp are you asking the right questions? The closer you are the further you are the closer you need to be.

willow11, Xorkoth, you both are great <3
just thought id let you know :)

^^ If you do , be sure to let us know about it. I was unaware it could be "solved."
actually, I may not get the chance: I've entertained the possibility my deciphering it may actually cause it to happen.

I'm well aware this sounds like absolute madness, which is why under normal circumstances I typically opt not to disclose my progress to anyone but those I'm close enough with to demonstrate it convincingly. Those people do exist, albeit in short supply, and I am apt enough at explaining...but communicating myself over the internet to strangers, on the other hand, is a whole different ball game.

I do have a remarkably complex system of checks and balances to validate the legitimacy of my own logic, though, and keep watch for signs of inaccuracy or insanity. Years' worth of technique, perfected when I was a far more selfish person and the rationalization of my own actions was of the highest importance. It comes in handy like whoa.

the system through which I have deduced I am on the right track is the same system which appropriates value to every awareness, every understanding, and every action in my entire life. Deliberately. When I first started playing with ideas concerning the welfare and constitution of something so grandiose as all of reality, I was very wary I could go off the deep end. It was my utmost concern. These days, it has come to the point where I believe that if I am wrong, I must also, likewise, be experiencing a completely illusory existence. I don't consider that very likely.

however, if I am nuts, it's pretty fucking cool. I like it. I will continue doing it.

Sometimes, one may realize that he or she knew everything all along, and just had to REALIZE it or become AWARE. Psychedelics make me more aware and awake. You may realize what you have been looking for is in front of your face.
 
Well, life is an experience, and so are psychedelic drugs, so I guess they're sort of along the same lines.
 
well psychedelic work on our neural net workings, that same net working that create our precieved reality. so in fact yes life is a psychedelic experience, the only difference is some psychedelic states are created by introducing a catalyst to change our preceptives and precieved reality.
