The Spirit Molecule
anyone else fascinated by DMT? The Strassman studies are worth a read for sure if you haven't seen them.
For those unfamiliar, DMT is an endogenous tryptamine. When taken in small doses it induces what is like a clean, intense, mushroom trip which lasts 5-20 minutes. When taken in larger doses (55+mg) it induces what can not be properly described in words. Accelerating to the speed of light in about 5 seconds flat is a fair description of how it feels, but after that one finds themself in a myriad of different places, surrounded by complex patterns of energy and often meeting totally alien creatures sometimes called "spice elves." Ayahuasca is an oral form of DMT often used in shamanic rituals in south America.
Rumor has it when you sleep, and when you die DMT is released in large doses by the pineal gland.
