First of all, I’m no junkie, I have always had a strong aversion to drugs, stimulants and supplements of any kind, even weed and tobacco lol. I have always been a firm believer in the ability of the humans to achieve altered states without any ‘augmentation’ through meditation techniques, well that was until I found out about dimethyltryptamine (DMT).
According to Wikipedia, N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT or N,N-DMT) is a tryptamine molecule which naturally occurs in many plants and animals. It can be consumed as a powerful psychedelic drug and has historically been prepared by various cultures for ritual and healing purposes.
Depending on the dosage and method of administration, the effects of DMT can range from mild psychedelic states to powerfully immersive life-altering experiences which are often described as the ultimate displacement from ordinary consciousness, in which users are placed in a “subjective” state where they can experience exploring ineffable spiritual realms or alternate dimensions. (PsychonautWiki.org).
How it Works?
DMT binds to serotonin receptors in a manner similar to how psilocin does. This causes neurons that would normally be triggered by the release of serotonin to fire when no actual serotonin is present. This leads to visual hallucinations and feelings of being separated from reality. Users become more introspective, but also report seeing or "visiting" another reality or dimension, and being completely removed from this one. (Thinkingzygote.com)
Where can DMT be found?
DMT is endogenous to the human body. It is produced in the human pineal gland, a small reddish-gray gland (about the size of a pea) near the center of the brain. One of the functions of the pineal gland is the production of melatonin. The pineal gland and melatonin help regulate sleep-wake cycles (circadian rhythms).
It also occurs as the primary psychoactive alkaloid in several plants including Mimosa tenuiflora, Mimosa hostilis, Diplopterys cabrerana, and Psychotria viridis. DMT is found as a minor alkaloid in snuff made from Virola bark resin in which 5-MeO-DMT is the main active alkaloid.
DMT Experiences.
DMK is known to evoke the most peculiar experiences that one can experience. Some people even claim to have seen strange entities or transported to other worlds. Here are some of these experiences.
Advanced beings.
(From a post titled “First Time Breakthrough” by Erowid user Stray Cat.)
“I continued floating around in the three-dimensional DMT space without anything too significant happening, when I was found by a very advanced extraterrestrial being. His kind liked humanity and they enjoyed helping humans evolve at a very fast rate. I could feel this being empowering me and showing me advanced things. He helped direct my awareness to different things, all of which were helpful to my evolution. Anytime my awareness shifted to something of no use, especially things that would enable fear, he would give me a nudge to not pay attention to it but to focus on the useful things that were good for me. He also could sense weaknesses in me as I brought them up from out from my consciousness and would helped me overcome them. At the same time this being was learning from his interaction with me. It was a positive experience.
“I learned that these beings existed [alongside] another type of beings. [The two] did not like each other, but instead of fighting, they just avoided one another in a respectful way, knowing that engaging in problems was a waste of time. They knew what they wanted and applied themselves fervently to related tasks.”
God Central.
(From a post titled “DMT – How and Why To Get Off” by Erowid users Gracie and Zarkov.)
“Closing my eyes, I got a glimpse of several entities moving in front of a giant complex control panel. The visions were not crystal clear and seemed as if I were viewing it through a scrim. The creatures were bipedal and of about human size. It was impossible to say more, other than they did not move like the giant insect creatures I have seen clearly under the influence of stropharia mushrooms. There was a direct awareness of an overwhelmingly powerful and knowledgeable ‘presence.’ It was neither frightening, nor encouraging. It was just mentally there. A thought came, unbidden, into my head. I realized that I was viewing ‘God Central.’ The central panel I saw was the control panel for the entire universe.”
Why I Want To Try DMT?
Since early childhood I have had unusual experiences, from strange dreams and visions to full blown out of body experiences, that have made me seriously question the nature of reality, some of which I might share on this blog later in the future, I think DMT might give me that push needed to have a deeper, more expansive understanding of how the reality works.
Unfortunately, N,N-DMT has been classified as a Schedule 1 drug in the US. A law which my country adheres to for no good reason. Fortunately, some plants barks which contain DMT are available for sale. To my knowledge, there are no regulations on plants. My plan is simple, get the plants, extract the DMT, use DMT. Sadly, I’m quite low on cash right now. It might take a while till I’m able to execute the plan. Additionally, it looks like the process of extracting the DMT from the plant bark is a bit technical. I would sincerely appreciate any advice you may have for me. I would also love to hear any experiences with DMT or DMT extraction that you’re willing to share.
Thanks!
