People are obsessed with experiences man - Joe Rogan

[mehico33]

He says some interesting shit, has the only podcast I ever listen to but seems as though he could benefit hugely from a bit of basic science teaching. For instance evolutionary biology

[MrCanzara]

Joe Rogan has some great things to say. Obviously a thinking man and I admire and respect that. Too bad he's such an ego-maniacal asshole......

[tubofbologna]

joe is so messed up

[united4life7777777]

@OpenedUpMyEyes88

There are no studies which prove the involvement of DMT when one is asleep. Hell, there isn't a real concrete explanation as to why humans dream, that's right: NONE. Why don't you do your research instead?

[rickyp17]

@united4life7777777 well he didn't say that, joe did, which is a theory by dr. Rick Straussman joe should specifiy on it being a theory more, but it is fact that dmt is naturally produced in many mammals, and plants, with no real known function, so what if it is there for dreaming, and i'm sure when Rick Straussman did the studies with people on dmt, alot of them related it to dreaming, he is atleast basing it off of something.

[united4life7777777]

@rickyp17

I'm just tired of people repeating what they hear from others. I'm a huge Rogan fan but you have all these fanboys that just repeat what he says without any further research. I know what DMT is and I know where it exist. I just think saying DMT is responsible for dreaming and near death experiences is stretching it when nothing has been proven. As I stated before, we don't even know what the real reason for dreaming is.

[united4life7777777]

Where are you getting that DMT is produced in sleep or that it even exist in the human body? As far as I know, there are no studies that prove any of this.

[joeratti]

great, joe rogan memorized a magazine article and all you morons think hes a genius. he repeats explanations of DMT and other drug stuff verbatim every time i hear him.

[slothman07]

@joeratti He's done 93 podcasts since today. If he rehashed the same stuff everytime, theres no way it would have climbed to 300,000 listeners, and he probably wouldnt have gone this far with it. If you listen to them youll also find that its not only his DMT and drug stuff that makes sense, but a lot of other stuff he talks about makes sense too. How many times have you taken cool stuff you read and talked to someone about it? All the time, everyone does it. Stop hating and generalizing.

[Greig1424]

wow he is stoned out his face

[Kindred1a1]

Joe I love you man but as a Behavioral Neurobiology(Neuropsychology) honors student, I have learned in my Neuropsychopharmachology class that there are no conclusive facts that have proven that DMT is in fact produced by the pineal gland. So while I love you, going around saying DMT is naturally made in the brain is a wrong.

[nashnwo1234]

@Kindred1a1 didnt you just finish saying that there are no conclusive facts to prove dmt is made in the brain? so why would you say joe rogan is wrong. even rogan would be honest enough to admit that he doesnt KNOW it as a fact. much like how you made a comment here admitting that you really dont KNOW anything about what you learned, yet felt you were smart enough to correct joe. students...

[Redcaster916]

This is one SICK world we live in

[FuckFacts]

@Kindred1a1 Well, it is obviously produced in the human body somewhere because you can extract it from your urine =) It makes sense that a psychoactive chemical would be produced in your brain where it could be put to use rather than say in your stomach where it would just make you feel like shit. No biological evidence that it's produced in your brain, but we must never forget logic... do they teach that in neuropsychology? =D

[Kindred1a1]

@FuckFacts

lol yea you're correct it is in your brain but no evidence points that the pineal gland secretes it, nor that it is used in dreams. It's an interesting theory, one which I am hoping is true!

[FuckFacts]

@Kindred1a1 It seems logical... In my opinion it's definitely released during near-death experiences. I have a friend whose heart stopped for a while and he was transformed by the experience. The man I spent my entire childhood with, debating philosophy and religion closely, always ending at atheism, was suddenly a born-again Christian. He is convinced that he met God and was told all of the secrets of life. The only chemical I know that can produce these effects is DMT.

[FuckFacts]

@Kindred1a1 I doubt I have to tell you that I'm not given to the assumption that he actually met God =P Although I'm not a strong atheist anymore, I don't believe in a God that intervenes on behalf of humanity. The idea of a creator is not incongruous with logic, but the idea of a moral(or immoral) creator is.

[TheBbg83]

@FuckFacts Have you researched the NDE's? I think you might find them pretty cool. I believe in God but as you said I don't think it is him saving anyone, but the bible says this and some sufferers of NDE's claim we all have guardian angels and this I think may explain certain things. I looked at "luckiest moments ever" here on YT and I gotta say these people had something watching their backs lol. Churches are control mechanisms that is a Fact. God Bless you and good luck in the future.

[cetnik03]

i agree with joe 100% on almost everything man i would love too meet him, smoke out and discuss 1000 topics joe your the man keep spreading the truth!

[J0hnyUtah]

what an idiot

[iscream22]

I reccomend you all listen to Terence McKenna, much of what Rogan has to say is better explained by McKenna, even Rogan has acknowledged this.

[mikecappa]

people with bad trips, it's your own fault. you don't go watching fucking saw on mushrooms and expect a good trip what the fuck. psychedelics are meant to open your mind not just get high. use don't abuse.

[tylowylo12321]

@mikecappa its also about self control. i could watch saw on shrooms, and enjoy the fuck out of it.

[bawbag2112]

@tylowylo12321 how do you learn that self control? cause i haven't ever taken a shroom cause i don't know where to get them, but when i do i don't wanna fuck my head up because i had a bad trip

[brynn]

@bawbag2112 If you freak out about it and get negative thoughts you will have a bad trip. But that's all part of the learning experience. You just have to remember none of the negative matters. Because it going to be okay.

[lioncombo]

Last time i took mushrooms i was watching saw, and teh old guy s yelled out and i got this feeling in my chest.. I seriously thought i was gonna die there infront of all my friends how embarassing.. i was scared to lay down the rest of the movie

Once you get high on shrooms its easier to get high again cuz you know how much to take and what to expect

[iloveniggers1000]

when i tried salvia i heard a voice tell me not to get under my sheets. and i was scared to death to get under those fuckin sheets. i just wanted it to end. just stick to weed.

[Yip1991]

@iloveniggers1000

Yea that's why I'm terrified of taking hallucinogens...I just have this feeling I'll get a horrible trip

[tylowylo12321]

@Yip1991 then you will if you think that

[TechnoWaffol]

I got some saliva but I have no idea how potent it is so I'm scared to try it.

[que2pineapple]

i didn't trip on salvia until like my 4th or 5th time smoking it. But trust me dude, just be patient and it is totally worth it.

[danzig5]

once again joe rogan understands this shit>hes a fucking cool guy

[PsykodelikCyoldier]

Yeah I have heard meditation doing that and a theory it could open the pineal but not facts on it yet. However there is a mixture of C02 and 0xygen called Meduna's Mixture. The body thinks its suffocating when too much C02 increases rather that Oxygen decreases. Meduna's original formula was 30% CO2 and 70% oxygen. After that is taken psychedelic effects start. These are compounds not drug, its the body reacting to what it thinks is death. Near death experiences are thought to release DMT.

[xerox165]

I wonder if one could trigger their pineal gland to release DMT through meditation, and obtain enlightenment. Like the Buddhist monks are always talking about.

[Iwantedtoknow16802]

There is a way to consiously activate the pineal gland.When I do it I get varying levels of wall breathing objects activly changing their shape geometric light patterns feelings of being universally connected etc.Their is no one way to tell you how becuase the experience is a learning that is unique because it is subjective to your personal perspective.Here some helpfull names: William Cooper,Durnvalo Mechizedek,Len Horowitz,Rysa5(on youtube).Learn the Truth and become what you are.

I Am.

[jyakin]

If you are for real. I deeply thank you.

[abidauron]

HOW THE FUCK DO I ACTIVATE IT

tell us NOW and help us become people with less of an ego

[Iwantedtoknow16802]

I wish could just tell people but it isn't that easy . For me it was like my whole life led up to that point where I realized people are capable of this. But if certain things hadnt've happend and I made different choices that moment wouldnt have existed at all.On some level I feel like its allmost a fluke of dumb luck that I've reached the point that I'm at now.

Some people spend a lifetime, some people are just born to do it, some never will but you can change that if you want it enough.

[abidauron]

are u telling me that ur gonna leave me

and not teach me do do it or tell me how i can learn it?

[Iwantedtoknow16802]

Uhh well I guess I could say....start with nature, fine tune your senses and instincts, let go of everything you thought was important even yourself, learn about anything you haven't been told about in school or the news, go with the flow you know what you have to do when you have to do it so when stuff happens don't fight it just go with the flow, can't really think of anything else.....

[abidauron]

i've been doing that for years

[Iwantedtoknow16802]

I forgot to mention the part about having a life changing trip experience. The kind of trip where you truly beleive you have seen god. That God itself filtered through the ethers of quantum electromagnetic frequnecies to manifest itself in all its glory right in front of your eyes. Other than everything I've siad I have no idea what to tell yah.

[raoulthompson]

I've had similar experiences, and I have a lot of disdain for people who do as well and then think of that as a plateau and stagnate. "That God itself filtered through the ethers of quantum electromagnetic frequnecies" doesnt make any sense at all even to an avid tripper. You had a big experience and imagined it was god because you cant conceive of a lack of control and thats all god is for us, a sense of control.You come off as a babbling moron who took too much acid, educate yourself.

[raoulthompson]

nothing you're talking about has anything to do with consciously activating the pineal gland. Its about waking up in a social sense.

[d0md0mt0mt0m]

I've actually wondered about this before and I think I have almost got it sometimes. I start to hear sort of transmitting noises that are always in old movies with satellites and stuff, but that's as far as I've got.

[holdupsway]

sounds like the first step to sleep paralysis, meditation during sleep can cause you to go into a wake induced dream, you pretty much get an out of body experience i think its the same exact thing as DMT just you dont have to smoke it happenes naturally

[d0md0mt0mt0m]

Activate what? Go trip on DMT

[abidauron]

yeah, naturally trigger it besides sleeping

[raoulthompson]

The thing that gives away how full of shit you are is if you read the last part of this comment you obviously feel you've achieved some amazing state and are satisfied, when any true traveler never ceases the journey. Its also faulty to call it "the truth" when you cant say it, then there is no truth. For instance, I've had "awakenings" that brought me to a truth, and I can say it clearly: we are one thing experiencing itself subjectively in little pieces (people), our bodies are avatars

[Iwantedtoknow16802]

You know what your right...But you don't have to be such a dick about it. Im not perfect so what if I couldn't fully artuiculate the living symbios of all things within the universe being one being and even that sounds retarded, but it makes sense to me becuase that is a result of my subjectivity becuase I have experienced things that no one else can becuase I am me.And as interesting as the things you say are I kinda dont want to care becuase of how much dick you come across as.

[d0md0mt0mt0m]

Your right about that, but soon you will realise that doesn't explain anything. That sentence doesn't come close to explaining what you actually found out. Telling someone "we are one" doesn't automatically enlighten them. Because the English language is inadequate.

[jakedasnake160]

were addicted to sleep and the dmt taht is in dreams.

[XblindXskaterX]

fuck man u need to take more the a point of salvia then cause that shit fucks u up... not for very long though.. but it is a good time.. and its completely legal.. so props to that..

[chachee99]

I tried salvia was completely disspointed with it. Way over hyped if you ask me. I tried the leaves the 5x extract, 10x extract, even the 40x extract. I got a slight buzz at best. The room was quiet, there was no destractions like the tv. I tried smoking it and drinking it like tea. Nothing really happened. Who knows? Maybe I got ripped off.

[fuchristians666]

Do some salvia!!!

[lakebodom69]

take 3 big hoots and you wont just feel "buzzed"

even with 20x, you will be seeing everything just a bit differently

go into your head shop, buy some salvia, and a pipe if you dont have one. Pack half the bowl with pot, and the other with salvia, and just smoke.

i've had 20x and 40x, and both have done me in good

[fuchristians666]

sounds good, thanks!!!

[halberkstresser]

I want the tank but my apt. is fucking SMALL

[Garbonzo07]

THANK YOU JOE

THANKS TO YOU I DECIED TO LEARN LUCID DREAMING

DMT ALLL NIGHT

WOOOOOT!!

hehe hope i get the tank your giving away

oh man ill use it everyday and everynight I PROMISE!!

[lolll666]

dreaming isn't really like being high on DMT. i think maybe your pineal gland creates DMT but then reengineers it for some other purpose, because taking DMT is a lot more vivid and mind-blowing than lucid dreaming... but what do i know, maybe that's just because we've developed tolerance to dream-style DMT highs

[ontariobuds]

@Garbonzo07 DMT all day!

as a matter of fact, I'm going to go smoke some jungle dmt. (it's all I have right now)
