Terence Mckenna - DMT hypothesis

Okay hypothesis one, DMT is not a drug, it is an extraterrestrial communication device. These are creatures somewhere in the universe who are so different from us that they come to us not in starships the size of Manhattan but in drug molecules that are dinky. So we are in contact here with some kind of extraterrestrial technology and these are true aliens of some sort. And God knows the weirdness of the situation supports the hypothesis.

Okay second hypothesis. There is a parallel universe, unsuspected by most human beings. It's right here, all the time. It's inhabited. These things have their own hopes, fears, problems, so forth. And somehow this drug just erases this boundary and then you find yourself in the elf nest.

Next hypothesis. These things, because they have great affection for me, because they seem intent on the task of communicating, perhaps they are human beings from the distant future. Perhaps this is what we are fated to become. You know, there's always, since we were kids, the cliché 'beings of pure energy'. Well it's always been a little hard to wrap your mind around what that would look like, but, low and behold here appear to be creatures of pure energy. But there are a lot of problems with hypothesizing a future human technological breakthrough which would allow them to actually manipulate the past. Logical paradoxes and that sort of thing.

Well so then here's another possibility. They are human beings. But they are not in the future in the ordinary sense or in the past. They are in the pre-natal and post-life phase. In other words these are either the unborn waiting in some limbo like dimension to descend into matter. Or they are in fact people who have had a sojourn in the domain of organic existence, and now have moved on. Let me not kid you, we're talking about dead people here in that case. Well if you go to the shamans who access these places through Ayahuasca or the Virola snuffs or something like that. They will say 'Well these are our ancestors. Didn't you read Mircea Eliade. Don't you know that shamanism works through ancestor magic?' Well "ancestor" is a tremendously sanitized term for "dead people". And if what is actually happening here, is that the much argued about soul is actually made visible by this pharmacological strategy... I mean god knows why, but god knows why anything else is the way it is.... Then this is truly big new. This is the confounding of rationalism. If what is happening is that by pushing the frontiers of pharmacology we discover a way to even momentarily and temporarily erase the boundary between the living and the dead, then this is a 180 degree turn on the evolution of culture that not even the most technically infatuated among us are prepared to assimilate. And over time, I've sort of come to incline to the idea that this is what is in fact going on. And the reason it's so hard to bring anything out of the DMT flash is because at the center of the flash you find out something so unexpected, so appalling, and so existentially convincing in the moment of confronting it, that you simply immediately block it out and obliterate it.

What if I'm floating in the spirtual bulk somewhere frying my ass off on elf shrooms?

When the drugs finaly wear off and I "come to", I describe this nutty universe where everyone is on the brink of the Book of Revelations, or talking shit to eachother on Youtube all day about how they know "reality"...

...what a freakin trip that was / is!

I WILL BE LOOKED AT SIMILAIR TO JESUS, BECAUSE IM SPREADING THE WORD OF GOD WHEN I SPREAD THE MUSHROOM.

@igknotTheGreat I never even done weed once. But i have spent hours listening to people like Mckenna. I would do DMT last of everything, and only after a few years of gradual use of "lesser" psychadelics.

I admittedly have not experienced DMT...YET, but 1 thing I can say & feel fairly confident about, as w/just about any other Psychedelic do NOT do it alone, do NOT do it w/out guidance by someone more experienced than you, do NOT do it if you're in a bad/depressed mood or around shitty people. DMT is the proverbial daddy of them ALL. I've researched it enough to know that what I'm saying has truth...if you're not ready for the ride, gonna need clean underwear when done, if you come back at all.

@Mavericks411991 Dude you can make your own DMT. I was in the Rainforest with Terence. Buy the book "Psychedelic Shamanism" it gives you the recipe and how to. Be careful. It is a true shamanic journey and people are changed forever, be ready or be sorry...

[morningmayan]

Been there, done that, truth. R.I.P. Terence - Miss you.

@GreenTumb420 Its extreme;y hard to extract pure DMT crystal, and would not trust myself. I dont want to make ayahuasca that bad because i want to try the pure stuff you smoke. Not the whole MAOI route.

@Mavericks411991 If you've been looking for DMT for years, why dont you just make it?
